I say we double down and offer Jinks a raise and extension! Never seen anyone turn a program around this fast...at least not since Urban...unfortunately we're turning the wrong way.

I'd paste these things all over the weight room walls this week as added motivation for everyone involved with the program. It's rather embarrassing to see BG's game associated with these lists a year removed from such an exciting season, but here we are.

I agree. Certainly couldn't hurt.

Let's hope our team and coaches aren't giving a moment's thought to the musings of a two-bit ESPN hack of a comedian.

ESPN used to have some talented people..as much as I dislike his politics and his TV persona...Olbermann was really good with Dan Patrick. And there were others... Everything they do now is so bland...that bottom ten bit was awful. There wasn't a decent joke in that entire post.

They never should have let Bill Simmons leave

Agreed. They've paid to much for broadcast rights. NBA, NFL, college sports, etc. They over leveraged themselves so now they can't keep their on air talent. As cord cutters have grown they've lost revenue while upping costs.

I think I heard Mike and Mike are each at like $3 million per. I know they have a following but I'm curious how long they keep that.

Olberman, Patrick, kilborn, Stuart Scott, etc. Sportscenter used to be entertaining, I couldn't name a single anchor now.

For the past 4 years or so ESPN reporting consists of so and so tweeted this and so and so tweeted that back.

Or they create a story when things are slow.
