The General’s College Football Preview: 2010 Edition

College football is 30 days from kicking off. Here’s who to watch for, who’s getting voted off the island early, and who wins the “Florida v. Alabama” debate.

Butch Davis Jacks Up Another Tradition

Butch Davis killed the Cleveland Browns and it seems he’s trying to kill another proud tradition: The University of North Carolina. A Tar Heels player may have spent time in “South Florida” on the school’s dime, and more is certainly going to come of this. Butch strikes again!
