    Another lying sports figure, not suprising.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    Meh, so what? He jumped to the NFL. I don't buy the "stay for the kids" argument either because most of them would jump to the NFL the instant they were eligible. Most of the players in Georgia, Alabama and Florida are bolting for the draft in their junior year. Don't hear anybody bitching about "loyalty". I never have a problem with somebody bettering themselves. This is big business and there is no loyalty. Oregon would've fired Kelly in a second if he had a couple bad seasons. Gene Chizik won a national championship just a couple years ago and had 2 rough seasons and they fired him. When you're dealing with a business as big and cutthroat as college football is, the only loyalty you show is to yourself.

    My guess is the NCAA is about done with their investigation and the results aren't going to be pretty.
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    That'll be interesting. Vick would seem to be a fit with his style of offense if he can keep from turning the ball over. You can't turn the ball over in that kind of offense though, as that'll leave your defense on the field too much...

    If Kelly keeps Vick, he needs to be fired already! Running QB's get hurt and don't last. Vick has never played a full season to my knowledge and when he is healthy, he's still isn't that good. I have a feeling Kelly will be looking for a replacement QB as soon as he walks in his new office.

    He might try to pick up Matt Flynn or maybe Alex Smith. I'm actually hoping my beloved Titans make a play for one of those guys. Jake Locker is not the answer in Tennessee and Hasselbeck is too old. Alex Smith is a 70+% completion passer and got the 49'ers to within a muffed punt of the super bowl.
