Someone recommends you and a coach does his friend a favor. And then, a little lick comes around.

I’m glad it worked out for Howell and hope he succeeds.

Remember that UVA defense his last year there? No wonder a SEC school jumped on

That doesn’t even mention that Vandy was desperate and Bronco got him a job

Ya when there is actually results to back it up. He hasn’t really succeeded

I wouldn't even call them SEC. They're barely Pac level (if we're being honest

If we’re honest, we’d say they are in the SEC… because they are

0-3 in what championship teams? Indeed, what a loser (I don’t get the hate)
