Fight at Indiana, Flight at LSU
College Basketball, College Football May 2nd. 2008, 12:00pm
On a slow day, these would be separate posts, but we must blend them together: Welcome to Indiana, Tom Crean! and Say goodbye to the Bayou, Ryan Perrilloux!
Poor Crean. He leapt from a safe, unscrutinized gig at Marquette into the unwelcome arms of the madness that is Bloomington, Indiana. Eric Gordon bolts to the NBA, everyone else graduates, quits or transfers, and he’s left with a 10-win team. Then, a freshman who wasn’t a factor at all last season tells the coach he’s going to transfer, emotions bubble up, and the kid throws a potted plant. Police are called. Just a guess: Michigan will win more hoops games than Indiana next season.
The train-wreck lover in us is upset that Perrilloux is finished at LSU. Somehow, we’re fairly certain we haven’t heard the last of the gambling-loving, mouthy fighter who occasionally gets a little racial. Anyone know when Cops is on again?
Player’s frustration boils over (Indy Star)

This proves that the NY media are a bunch of asshats. Just because the presumed starting quarterback at the defending national champion is not gonna be there. That’s not “news” to the rest of the country.

Is Perriloux going to be the new Adrian McPherson? Coming soon to a backup on an AFL team near you.

Why are we being bogged down with this non-story. Why does ESPN force this down our throats?

It sounds like there is a story to be told at IU.
The rumor I heard about the two guys who got kicked off before Creen was hired was that they had gone completely rogue, and it was best to kick the off so the new coach didn’t have to do it.

say hellow to UTEP perriloux, unless you desire to play pinball football.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:17 pm
@jimmy, I think UTEP is D1. He’s going to end up a Jackson St. or UAPB where he can play immediatly.

Thanks for helping me out on that one.
Screw Perrilloux. How many chances are you gonna give a guy?

Sam Houston St.!

Hopefully he transfers to West Texas A&M to get the proper mentoring from their QB coach (and golf coach) Ryan Leaf.

@consult: That was awesome. I didn’t read that it was the onion until I got about half-way through and realized this was fake.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:21 pm
Just to satisfy you guys…I’m surprised that ESPN got to this story.
I mean, Roger Clemens might have fucked somebody else.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:21 pm
Life imitates the Onion. Looks like Mack Brown dodged a couple of bullets with Bomar and Perrilloux.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:22 pm
Tommy Rommell is an overrated quarterback.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:25 pm
mack brown falling back asswards into good luck? NO WAY…NEVER.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:26 pm
I nearly spit out a mouthful of pills and bourbon when I got to “Tommy Rommell”. Nearly.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:29 pm
Perriloux is a dumbass and lost himself millions.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:30 pm
Welcome to the Andrew Hatch era. Or Jarrett Lee.
LSU will be in the hands of either a Harvard transfer or a redshirt freshman next year.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Luckily he can use his counterfeiting equipment to make some more.
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:33 pm
LSU will be like Michigan! Except with talent! and wins! and less of a dickbag coach! well…he’s just as much of a dickbag, he’s just a funny dickbag that makes you laugh rather than makes you say, “fuck that dickbag!”
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:36 pm
Spence, I sincerely hope you’re not wasting your lunch hour on TBL. That’s what work hours are for.
@Hef: How long until the onset of bed sores?
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:41 pm
Why would anyone care about minor league football when Roger Clemens’ soon to be revealed affair with Delta Burke is going to be given its own Sportscenter Special?
May 2nd, 2008 at 12:47 pm
Oh well, LSU won its titles with Matt Mauck and Matt Flynn, not JaMarcus Russell. And Spence, you know that Ohio State won it with Craig Krenzel and not Troy Smith.
“And in the 2008 NFL Supplemental Draft, the Dallas Cowboys select…”

Big props to Les Miles on this one, wish he would’ve taken the Michigan job
May 2nd, 2008 at 1:10 pm
If Matt F’ing Mauck can fall down and gain 5 yards every other play and ride that all the way to winning a title, any piece of Red Stick trash they throw in there can probably do the same.
May 2nd, 2008 at 1:17 pm
LSU won its titles with Matt Mauck and Matt Flynn, not JaMarcus Russell.
You can’t tell me that LSU’s ‘07 team was any better than JaMarcus’s ‘06 team. the ‘07 team just was fortunate everyone kept losing, in 2006 the NCAA was much, much better. But so was Florida, Michigan, etc.

pick another team TBL, Michigan will not win more basketball games than IU next year. no way.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:05 pm
I’m actually somewhat happy about what is going down at IU. Obviously next year will suck, but Crean is bringing good recruits in and cleaning the program of the ones causing trouble will allow him to mold the program for the future.
I really liked watching Bassett play, but if he wants to be some rogue character and not follow any rules then good riddance.
