The Redbirds wrapped up the regular season with a team record 91 wins. Congratulations to them, and to manager Stubby Clapp for keeping the W’s coming as so many players got called up to the Cardinals. Playoffs come to AutoZone Park tomorrow.
I stayed up and watched the Tennessee-Georgia Tech game last night. For those of you who missed it, Tennessee had a Tennessee-themed trash can into which they would dunk the ball after forcing a turnover. According to Dan Wolken of USA Today, staffers would hoist it over their heads like it was the Stanley Cup. That is SO Butch Jones. As Wolken wrote, the trash can “simply does not project the kind of seriousness and confidence that a blueblood program should have.” Yup. Tennessee football is a joke.
If you were a coach on the hot seat and your team frequently played like crap, would you put a trash can on the sideline?
