Interested to see what he says about the CB situation for this weekend. I'm not even sure who's available there anymore.

Of course we have to wait for Shea for a question worth a damn.

What did Harris do?

At this point he’s useless to the team

What the hell is up with Doucet’s questions the last few weeks? He has been wording his questions in a way that gives Kelly a chance to pat himself on the back. It’s fricking weird.

I anticipated having the first two not being available but what is the deal with Harris?

Really thought he’d play in this game.


ETA: Not asking you directly, just talking out loud.


Ugh Wingo is out for the season. Had surgery.

"Helps to have a 10-year contract."

You don't get 10 years at LSU going 8-5 because you want to set examples of players who fail to deliver on the "excellence in the classroom" part. We're not Notre Dame and never will be.

Finally a question about our opponent that doesn’t involve being in awe of Nick Saban.
