He's Staying


Tim Tebow has decided to remain at Florida for his senior year. That's not really a shocker; he's not rated very high on the boards and, besides, his legend is not yet completely written in college.
I think this, Spikes and Harvin aside, makes the Gators the de facto pre-season #1

My best guess for #2? Notre Dame. Man, they were great this year, huh? I mean, did you see that Hawai'i Bowl? Clausen for Heisman!

Not really. But, many are suggesting now that next season might be the year that the Domers make their big push for UF head man, Urban Meyer. There is a draw for Meyer: it's close to home and the motherfucker's named after a pope for Christ's sake (literally, kinda). But, he also lives in the real world in 2009 and there's probably no better spot for him than where he is. 2 titles in 3 years? That ain't happening at ND, not even with the media suck-fest that seems to take place whenever the Irish get borderline talented.

My real guess for #2? Right now, it's probably USC. I just need to weigh that pick against the fact that they'll lose some shit game and end up stacked against a 1-loss team from a much tougher conference. Let's see what the draft party hangover is gonna look like in the Big-XII before we get to poll-happy...

Lost in the buzz of Tebow's return and swept under the rug by their lackluster win over Ohio State is the return of Texas' Colt McCoy. He's a great QB, a leader with real character and a good head on his shoulders. He makes Texas successful similar to the way Tebow wills Florida to win. He was my Heisman fave until Tebow gave his post-loss speech and I think him being back under center affirms Texas as real, legitimate title contender. They could have been this year, since they did (say ti with me here) beat Oklahoma. Look out for McCoy and the Horns in '09.
