West Ruled Ineligible

I don't have a link to qualify this, but Tony Basilio is reporting that Pearl has announced West to be acadmically ineligible.  If you find a link, please include it in the comments.  Once I get something to verify this in print, I'll link as well.

Especially when combined with the recruiting news today.

I understand he's appealing

Bruce doesn’t like the chances though.

Pretty much.

When the coach says the appeal is “up to the family”, then the cost/benefit is no longer in the interest of the athletic department. Considering the implications for the team’s depth at point, that’s a pretty telling statement.

Don't know if anyone knows this guy but I ran into him a couple of weeks ago and he was highly...
As Hooper mentioned, none of the RTT uniform design entries went with the black shirts and orange pants, like we saw against that team coached by Spurrier this past weekend.

So I gave it a very quick stab.  One thing I couldn't figure out in the short amount of time I took to do this was how to get the "T" on the helmet when designing your own helmet.  Others had done it in the contest...I couldn't figure it out.
