Just like NC's Coach did not care as much, leaving for O-State and Purdue's coach did, new contract... Toledo's Coach is thrilled and passed on the chance to help in ILL. Bad for ILL and it will show. Campbell was and is the brains behind Toledo. You would think that with him running the off, that the Beckman could have worked with the D and done SOMETHING>.... Notta and without campbell in Ill, beckman will suffer.
Look for campbell to pump up toledo, pull out a couple plays he had in his pocket for years, and do anything he can to inspire, plus add new recruits. This is his game of a lifetime...
Mentioned in another thread is, if Toledo gets up a little, long night for AF trying to catch up. I could see them trying to throw and getting picked, a couple times.I look for toledos d to step up a little too....
Just hate seeing all the SITE posters on Toledo, you would think they would be touting AF to get more money over there. Maybe Campbell has turned his eye away from the D and it will be a scoring feast.

After Saban's comments today the Agents will be looking for revenge. Thus the Party information that has hit TMZ about the RB ..... Whose Family came out and said he was not feeling good about his Mother Dying and needed to get away. But when he went to the party in SOUTH BEACH via a Vacation... Again, this was to get away from his Dying mother. When he entered the party he had knew nothing about before hand and heard their were agents, he asked to leave right away.... Yea Right ! Just a sad Proclamation I heard today on the radio... I will see if it is linked anywhere...
Somehow they have got to create a rookie salary cap that is on the low side to prevent these Agents from chasing these high school and college kids. Put severe punishments on anyone involved. And create an Agent Approved program that is sanctioned by Homeland Security.
I bet it don't end there. Got to figure the agents will hate being blasted and labeled Pimps. Anyone of them that has a little dirt will release it throwing Saban under the Bus. He has no right in blaming the agents for all the trouble. They are all involved.... but not tied together. Everyone is looking out for #1 while trying not to step in #2.
Now the NCAA, Coaches, and the NFL will blame the Agents. Why not...??? There are few names tied to specific agents. Thus it is a blame on no one real program, Coach or league. But a shadow that lurks the halls behind the seens. Brilliant PR move....
For those that have read my post, you know I have insider info.
I reported that Pete Carroll was being chased out of USC weeks before the bowl game. When there was not even mention of it. Although it has been made to look like he was leaving for something better. My brother (a reporter for a sport illustration) had talked to USC boosters and they were tired of the (GOOD GUY) mr. friendly doing nothing basically with the best talent in the country. There was no reason with their talent USC should have fallen off like they did.
According to boosters... "It is not Fun anymore" Mr. layback needs to go. We need a pickup...
With that said... He is the latest one... These 2 happen to bump into each other in California. But wade defussed it quickly by telling the Florida sentinal :
With both the Heat and Cavaliers in the Bay Area to face the Warriors (the former on Wednesday, the latter on Monday), Dwyane Wade and LeBron James bumped into each other while shopping separately with respective teammates in San Francisco.
"We just saw each other around, shopping and things of that nature," Wade told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "If someone took a picture, they might come out with a story, but there's nothing to it."
Why so quick to defuss you may ask ????
The story goes they had planned to meet up. With both coming to the end of their contracts, and James wanting a Championship really bad. He knows he has to couple up with another great player. he also knows that if Cleveland gets through the playoffs. THey still get beat by L.A.
My Brother talked to couple of friends of both of these guys...
