Moving to Tallahassee
Good evening all,
So I am moving to Tallahassee this fall and was wondering if there was any place to look for a good apartment. I was wondering if anyone on here has an idea of which landlords suck to work with, which neighborhoods are the best, where parking is particularly bad, and also if there are any cool restaurants/bars to check out. My first thought was the area south and west of Doak since it would be easy to go to games but I don't know if that is one of the "bad neighborhoods" I was warned about. Also on that note, I don't know what qualifies as bad for everyone but as long as my neighbors aren't cooking meth or shooting at each other I am good.
Miami OH head coach rips Iowa
Piece about Todd Lickliter in which we get criticized for, "not realizing it's Iowa". Nothing against Coach Lickliter because by all accounts he is a good prison, but I am pretty sure program lows in wins and attendance coupled with an inability to keep your players from leaving is fair reason to fire someone.
Question for Georgia fans
Hey y'all, I have a quick question for you about some of the recent expansion rumors. Numerous sites, including this one, have cited a distinct opposition to the addition of teams to the SEC which are already within the leagues footprint (Florida State, Clemson, etc.). I was wondering if someone could explain the logic behind this because reading it (at least reading it as an ignorant northerner) the explanations are not well fleshed out. That isn't a denial of very plausible reasons for schools like Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina banding together to keep such schools out, but rather an acknowledgment that I don't understand the political minutia that exists between certain ACC and SEC schools.
From what I understand, the concerns seem to be focused on the lack of new television markets brought in by such programs and potential recruiting disadvantages. I feel like I must be missing something because even if those schools don't necessarily bring in new markets, they do create more valuable television properties added high profile games (Florida State v. LSU for example) which would theoretically drive prices up since there would be more must see contests on the league schedule. Also, I don't get the recruiting bit since some ACC schools (Florida State this past season as an example) tend to do just fine in recruiting. Obviously these schools might get more access to fertile recruiting ground in Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi but the schools who seem to be opposing them aren't from those states.
Again, this is not saying that there isn't a good reason for SEC East schools to try and block entry to these schools, but I don't feel like the reasoning on this is spelled out so idiots like me understand it. Thanks for your help and I enjoy reading the blog.
Ohio State is in More Trouble
Sounds like there is going to be another improper benefits investigation at OSU, this time regarding player's car deals. Also seems like the AD was in charge of monitoring it to so LOIC is probably inevitable if this turns up anything remotely out of place.

This just begs the question, does Tim Brewster have a clost full of cardboard school children somewhere or did he do that specifically for Henderson?
