wow... I was just about to drop the mother of all "WTF... why do I care about Arkansas' QB..." But that headline is awesome.

Can you imagine the meeting that switch took place in? A closed room with Johnson, Dick and Nutt... it's a Toledo fan's dream!!!

Here is my headline: Nutt chooses Dick over Johnson to take on 'Cocks

Wow. I can't believe I missed the SC angle, even!!!

sounds like a messy situation.

I think Dick is starting because Johnson has been stiff the past few weeks...He hopes Dick won't be as soft. It's tough starting a freshman against USC, their fans might get to him and Dick might get pissed off. Dick is 6'2, so he's pretty big, lets see how he does against the cocks...

Holy innuendos Batman!

Too bad Ball State wasn't somehow tangentially involved...

I sure hope so, because if we don't we'll have gotten pounded in the...oh, nevermind.

shucks...they changed the headline

They may have changed the headline, but quite possibly the greatest out-of-context quote ever is still there:

"Nutt said he would take the blame for Johnson's struggles..."

And similarly, regarding Dick:

"He has a strong arm and good instincts," Nutt said. "It's hard to explain. He just has 'it.' He just seems to have a knack for making some plays and we're going to give him an opportunity."

"Casey Dick, a freshman quarterback who's seen no action...."
the real shame is that the freshman dick hasn't seen any action. 7-8 weeks into the semester and nothing? i guess footballers aren't as cool as we all thought.
