    Well, at least we are not the only ones with a reason to hate Dick Giannini. Sorry for USM that this happened.

    What a shame. I know some folks here were sorta looking up to Southern Miss as a program we want to somewhat emulate, and yet here they are in this huge mess. I hope they can right the ship real soon over in H-burg!

    ...as We now see that high saleries do not always produce the best results. S.Mississippi has/had a great program and now we see something's rotten in Hattiesburgh. This is very sad for the college, the students, the season ticket holders and the school.

    I hope they can too, Ktulu7. Honestly, 18 consecutive winning seasons just commands respect from me, regardless of their budget issues. NOBODY at our level has done as much, football-wise, as USM with so little. The Golden Eagles are THE reason I wanted to be in C-USA...with Rice, Tulsa, Tulane, Marshall and ECU as gravy.

    I wish them nothing but the very best as they do what they have to do in order to right the ship.

    A lot to talk about in there, but WOW, $2 million plus for a regular season game. That's a lot of cash.

    I'd actually consider hiring Hammond to replace BVDV after reading that...

    How does an 0-12 team have a "star" QB?

    Why do you say that. That will not be us next year!
