AP: Virginia QB Chandler Morris files lawsuit against the NCAA seeking 7th of year eligibility

Liked for "Fragile Porcelain Mouse"
The Fragile Porcelain Mice was the name of my very first fantasy football team many years ago. It was from a David Letterman top ten list about least popular football team nicknames. Also used The Fightin’ Amish, The Soft Angora Sweater Wearing Debutantes and the Highly Paid Dumb Guys. But FPM was the first one and still my favorite.

Were I a Virginia fan, (BTW, I disdain most whom I know), I'd be concerned that my football program can't find an underclassman who can play QB.
I'm not sure about underclassmen but it looks like their QB room is in pretty good shape without Chandler.


Also it looks like they are not alone in not developing an "underclassman" to play qb,

Good number of SEC schools looking to work their young guys up.
Manning will either have a world beater year, or end up a late round draft pick. If they improve his accuracy (timing, really), it could be interesting.

Yeah, Bama and Georgia no longer ruling the CFB world. Which means those SEC fat pigs are getting fatter.
I would think purely on the basis of alumni wealth, Alabama would be pretty far down the list. Actually, the SEC minus Texas and A&M (and Arkansas minus the Waltons, lol) would fall way below the Big 10 in that category.

Was I supposed to type something here?

Heh. I went with "Carnivorous Sheep" for a team name...

Maybe all the Vanderbilt BMDs are trusts set up by Gilded Age barons at least a century ago. If they have any live ones, they may be able to play the money game.

We make fun of the "it mean's more" marketing slogan, but it really does mean more in that part of the country (and in that conference specifically). Which doesn't mean they shouldn't be made fun of BTW. Making college athletes exempt from taxation because you want to field better sports teams is really, really backwards.

It is wrong. One of the better bosses I've had, a creole lady from La. told me it was around 150. What she should have said is that minorities repped 150 out of 232 appointments. Black Females were 40 appts. The other 110 were Latinas, Latinos and others. When I texted her about this, she mentioned that she found it a little odd that 18% of the 232 appts were folks that repped less than 4% of the American Bar Association.
Coolest judge I've ever seen at any level was the Honorable George Hanks in the SDTX and in the Galveston court. He was a young black man appointed by President Obama. Those facts would lead to all sorts of presumptions but after a 3 day trial both sides lawyers commented on how fair he was, how the trial ran smoothly, and in general just how cool he was to work with. I've also seen plenty of bad rulings from both sides of the aisle, from the JP level to the Federal Courts. I'vre also won a few that I shouldn't have. Poltics, gender, and skin color are not indicators of wether or not the judge will pay attention, and apply the law impartially.
