Gene Chizik was in Destin, FLA last month at an annual SEC meeting attended by all the men’s hoops coaches, football coaches and athletic directors from that conference, AKA the people who pay the freight.

First of all, if you haven't checked in to The Paul Finebaum Radio Network before, make a New Year's resolution to give it a whirl some time. Generally, the audience calls in and hilarity ensues. This Fall you would have learned Nick Saban may not be the guy to get it done at Bama. Today he had...

Cam Newton, meet Marcus Dupree. It's amusing to witness this whole Camapalooza get into fifth gear on the heels of a documentary about the courting of Marcus Dupree and his recruiting. Funny how these Men of God are working it. Joe Schad has more information on the allegations. Of course he said...

Pete Thamel is all atwitter over the news that the NCAA has opened up a field office in Alabama. Apparently, somebody said Cam Newton or somebody representing him may have asked to get paid to play for Mississippi State. More news and snark as it develops. I'm liking the Crimson Caravan in the...
