- Question:-What was the biggest reason for Mike Leach's firing from Texas Tech?
I'm curious as to what the Yahoo community thinks. Was it his (alleged) treatment of Adam James coupled with his family's complaints? Or was it the fact that Mike Leach was due a hefty $800,000 bonus this past Friday? Do you know of another reason? 10 pts for the most thought provoking, grammatically correct answer.
Answer:-The biggest reason is that he stuck to his guns and refused to apologize when they offered him a way out. He refused to back off and allow the school to give something to the media/accusers/etc.
The $800K was a tiny part EXCEPT in how quickly they made the decision. It represents an insignificant (6.7%) part of his nearly $13M contract.
The stage had been set with many incidents over the past year. The shed incident gave them a focal point and his stubbornness pulled the trigger. - Question:-Question concerning concussions and the allegations against Mike Leach?
I am aware of the situation concerning Mike Leach and his treatment of injured WR Adam James. However, I am not fully aware of the effects that isolation in an electrical closet or dark room has on a concussed individual. So what makes this treatment so bad that he deserves to get fired? Please help me understand.
Answer:-Sensory Deprivation can be helpful for a concussion. This would be done maybe at home in a dark room in a comfortable chair or in an SD chamber. The stories Leach is putting out now are called "Lawyering Up".
Their purpose is to divert attention from the fact that he was planning on punishing a kid he (Justified or not) didn't like. Perhaps the kid was a goof-off. But, Leach is now trying to protect himself from a lawsuit that his actions have qualified him for quite well.
Coupled with SEVERAL earlier actions that he got away with, this latest action that (while not likely to be dangerous to the kids health) could easily be grounds for criminal prosecution from the articles I have read. - Question:-Will Texas Tech regret their idiotic decision to fire Mike Leach?
Seriously, this kid Adam James is a spoiled brat. Leach only got fired cuz of Adam's daddy. Espn is a bunch of crap. They have FAILED to properly cover this story. SAVE MIKE LEACH!
Answer:-Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. You ever met the jerk? I did when he was OC at Oklahoma. Anything bad that happens to Leach is okay by me. - Question:-Does anyone find the firing of Mike Leach a bit ironic?
The school that hired Bobby Knight as a head basketball coach, fires Mike Leach? Double standard?
Answer:-Yeah, I hadn't really thought about that, but it's true. Knight was a coach that made a career out of mistreating others and Texas Tech welcomed him with open arms. It sure seems like there is a double standard in play. - Question:-Has Mike Leach ever been a position coach?
Everywhere i've looked their has been no mention of whether Mike Leach was ever a position coach. But that doesn't make any sense to me, so has did he start out like most coaches coaching a position?
Answer:-Yes he was the OL coach and OC at Iowa Weslyan and was QB coach at Valdosta St while serving as OC, and I think he was QB coach at KY as well. Most all coordinators will also coach a position.
He got a masters from US Sports Academy after leaving BYU then went on to Pepperdine Law School, his first coaching job was at Cal Poly in San Louis Obispo in 1987, then one year at College of the Desert as an assistant, then went to Euro League, then got his first OC job at Iowa Weslyn. - Question:-what happened with Texas Tech Coach Mike Leach?
I guess I just missed it or didn't care, but I completely missed what happened to get Mike Leach fired.
Answer:-On December 28, 2009, Leach was suspended indefinitely by Texas Tech pending investigation of alleged inappropriate treatment of Adam James, son of former SMU and New England Patriots running back (and current ESPN college football analyst) Craig James. On December 16, James suffered a concussion in practice. He was examined the next day, and told not to practice that afternoon due to the concussion and an abnormally high heart rate. According to a James family source, Leach ordered him to stand in a dark shed near the Raiders' practice facility. Leach also threatened to kick James off the team if he left the shed.[ According to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, Leach thought that James was faking the injury. School officials gave Leach an ultimatum--apologize to James in writing by December 28 or Leach would be suspended. Leach refused to do so; his attorney, Ted Liggett, said his client didn't dispute the facts, but didn't think he'd done anything wrong.
Read more at the link below... - Question:-On ESPN radio 12/29 Doug Gottlieb compared the Mike Leach case with a famous broadcaster. Anyone know who?
He said the broadcaster also had a contentious contract negotiations with his network and so when the next contract was being negotiated, the network dropped him and they said this is similar to what Texas Tech is doing to Mike Leach. Anyone know who the broadcaster is? I remember the situation, but can't remember the broadcaster. Thanks.
Answer:-Marv Albert? - Question:-Who else is glad that fool Mike Leach got told to take a hike?
That fatass abuses his players and should be thrown in jail. Who the hell locks their own player in an electrical closet? I hope Leach never has kids.
Answer:-I've had two concussions in my life. Both times my doctor told me to spend as much time as possible the first couple of days "in a dark room". If it weren't for James' last name, Leach would still have a job. Back to the bottom of the Big 12 South.
Bring on the Tide! - Question:-Mike Leach is a moron and needs to be fired immediatley?
What kind of a coach locks his own player in an electrical closet when he has a concussion? I hope Leach never has kids.
Answer:-No, Leach freaking rocks and is the greatest. - Question:-Do you think Mike Leach Deserves to be fired as head coach of Texas Tech?
I dont think he should have been fired. Adam James and his father are both BIG babies. Seems to me like Adam James has been a brat this whole year. I dont blame Mike at all. What do YOU think?
Answer:-Let me pose a question to you guys that have played football..
What was Adam James doing with his cell phone at practice? If I'm not mistaken, the video in question was shot using his cell.
IF James had concussion like symptoms then sticking his butt in a dark room, out of the bright light, is the right thing to do. Why? With concussion type symptoms, people are more susceptible to the light and could possibly make the issue worse.
IMO, Craig James used his media contacts to try and "influence" Mike Leach into playing his son more. When Leach refused, this is when this whole drama filled story came out.
Again, IMO Tech football just took 3 giant steps backwards. Leach should not have been fired, the school was looking for a way out of the contract they gave him. Enter Adam James...
You can bet your ass that Leach will get a gig somewhere and every time he plays Tech, he won't "call off the dogs" and handily spank Tech.

macys
- Question:-macys?????????
does the macys at 4000 W. Diversey Ave Chicago, IL 60639 sell clothing or is it just a matress and furniture center??????
please help
Answer:-clothing and mattress and furniture. i went to the exact mall when i was on vacation. i bought like three skater shirts and some tight jeans there. and i also remember seeing mattresses and furniture there. - Question:-How does the Macys employee discount work?
I just got a job at Macys...they haven't explained the employee discount to me yet, so I need to know. They pay practically nothing (this is by far the lowest I've been paid in my life), and if the discount isn't good I might not go to training. Do I need to use my Macys credit card? What departments don't get discounts? Can I use the discount at sister stores?
I've previously read that you need to have the credit card to get the discount. I know it's 20% but it doesn't include all departments. If Coach and Movado aren't included, I'm out of there.
Answer:-i worked at macys to and the pay was horrible. the discount works likes this u have the credit card and u can use it anywhere in the store and they take 10% off of your monthly bill. - Question:-will my macys employment discount work with other coupons and merchandise already discounted?
I was wondering if my macys employment discount would work on already discounted items on the sale racks. Also, if it would work with international visitors pass, all-day savings pass, etc?? Let me know. Thanks!
Answer:-i believe it works on sales items but not in combination with actual coupons, it's considered double dipping - Question:-I bought a dress at macys can I return it to a different macys where I originally bought it?
I bought a dress at macys and I want to return it, does it have to be the macys I bought it from or can I return it to any macys?
Answer:-yeah you can. as long as you have the receipt :) - Question:-How do I order stuff from Macys that is not available in the store?
There is this blazer that I want and I have to be measured for it and the blazer is not in the store. What I want to know is would they measure me and can I place the order for the blazer and pick it up at Macys or do I have to buy it online.
Answer:-you can probably go to the store and have them measure you. call macys and ask them what to do. :] - Question:-Which job would be a better option Whole Foods supermarket or Macys retail clothes store?
In the past I would have said the clothes store, but the thing is this supermarket pays $10 dollars an hour which is more than the clothes store. Also I think the supermarket gives more hours which I is good for me. Is there more oportunitinies in this Whole Foods supermarket or macys to move up?
Ok, not just Macys but any other clothes or shoe store, are they still better than supermarkets, or does it depends what company it is?
Answer:-you should work at macy's. while whole foods may pay more, macy's offer more levels of management, so within a month you can get a promotion, 6 months another promotion and after a year you can become a sales manager. - Question:-How does working at Nordstrom compare to working at Macys?
Currently I'm working at a Macys store in the housewares department. Macys cuts my hours and doesn't treat its employees very well. I went to a job interview at Nordstrom two days ago and they said they will call me on Tuesday.
Is Nordstom a better company to work for? How is working at Nordstrom as a cashier?
Answer:-Nordstrom is awesome! however I work there in sales so I dunno about JUST being a cashier. I do both. If you ever get the chance to work there you should.. mostly because if you leave on good terms you are always welcome back. You can work just holidays or for the sales every year if you really wanted to. They love to hire within so its easy to go to school and come and go for summers and holidays for extra money. - Question:-Is it the same thing buying a coach bag from Macys or the Boutique?
I am just wondering because is it good to either go to Macys to buy the bag or the Coach boutique? I perfer the boutique for some reason. I know its the same but I rather get it from a coach boutique. Of course, i am comparing Macy's and the boutique when the bags aren't on sale.
So Which one would you prefer to go to Boutique or Macys? This can apply to other bags such a dooney and bourke, LV, etc? Or is this a difference at all?
Lol! I am from NYC too!
Answer:-A Coach bag, or a Juicy Couture or a Kate Spade handbag are EXACTLY the same if you buy them from a boutique or a department store. Personally I like to buy them from the place where I can get them for the least amount of money.
Because of this, I buy nearly all my handbags from eBay. I have very expensive tastes, but a not so expensive budget so I can get very high end bags on eBay for less money. My last purchase was a $695 Isabella Fiore handbag that I paid $219 for! If your not familiar with Isabella Fiore - you must check her out - her bags are works of art! - Question:-Can I return a food processor to Macys after 5 months without a box?
I received a food processor/blender for my birthday 5 months ago and I noticed that when I use it, which is seldom, it has a very sharp loud noise. I have seen reviews for it online and it seems that others have encountered the same. I don't even want to use it because of the horrible noise. Can I return it to Macys without a box?
I used it at most 5 times and it was only the processor part where the bowl was easily cleaned. The item looks Brand New. I have the original receipt.
Answer:-"Most macys.com items can be returned to a Macy's store, with original proof of purchase, within 180 days (6 months) of purchase. Read items with special guidelines for information about restrictions on store returns, as well as other restrictions."
Food processors don't count as "items with special guidelines" and their policy makes no mention of original packaging.
If the item is defective, at this point, chances are they would refer you to the manufacturer.
If the item works well but is obviously used they might not take it back on that account.
If you have all parts and it's not used (or at least look like it) I would think the answer would be yes. - Question:-What makeup product should I get at Macys?
What makeup product should I get today at Macys up to 20$. I really can't think of anything I want, any suggestions?
Answer:-Clinique is on money range you want to spend like 23 I suggest almost foundation is good.
urban meyer
- Question:-Urban Meyer?
What a cry baby?"They had their shot and we play in the toug (studders) I mean one of the toughest confrences. Loyd Carr said the right stuff and Meyer was about to cry.
Way to have sportsmanship
Answer:-Hey he was just taking a page out of Mack Brown's book when Brown lobbied to get Texas into the Rose Bowl 2 years ago. I think it's ridiculous to "campaign" to get your team into a BCS game. The coaches seem to double as politicians. - Question:-Are Utah fans embarrassed that urban meyer was once a coach there?
Utah's program is squeaky clean and it appears urban meyer along with floriduh and the $chedule ea$y cupcake$ conference have $old their integrity for bc$ big buck$. If spikes had gouged out 1 eye, urban meyer would have sugar coated the assault by saying Washaun Ealey still has 1 eye.
Answer:-I think Utah fans are happy that they have their current coach, and that Meyer took his lack of integrity elsewhere. - Question:-Why do some football fans at Florida compare Urban Meyer to Steve Spurrier?
Spurrier helped Florida win its first national title (first is always hardest especially when at that time FSU and Miami had more advantages to better recruits). He helped USC returned from the pits of college football to a SEC East division winner. Urban Meyer was lucky to have Ron Zook his first National Title and Tim Tebow in his second one.
Answer:-Now matter who the coach is Spurrier will be the one that the coach is compared to. He was an all american football player & Heisman winner at Florida & also led them to their first national championship. Similar to what if is at Alabama. The "Bear" will always be in the discussion there. RT - Question:-What do you think about Tom Brady's demand that the Patriots hire Urban Meyer as offensive coordinator???
Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe is reporting that Tom Brady was disgusted with the offensive play-calling during the Super Bowl and demanded that a change be made. Just yesterday Brady called both Bill Belichick and VP of Player Personell Scott Pioli to give them permission to do what it takes to get Urban Meyer. Apparently Brady is enamored with Meyer's success running the spead-offense and believes he'd have no problem adjusting from the college game to the NFL. Would Urban Meyer be a good fit for the Patriots??
Answer:-I think that would be a good choice.
Hasn't anybody figured out he is making this stuff up? By the way I think it is very amusing. - Question:-Who is a better coach Pete Carroll or Urban Meyer?
I would personally say Urban Meyer, he just took the College Football world by storm in a mere 3 years.
Answer:-I'd take Carrol. - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer would leave Florida to coach Notre Dame?
Next week Urban Meyer can talk to other schools about leaving Florida do you think he would leave for Notre Dame? If he did how soon would it take the Irish to become a national power again?
Answer:-If it were after last season, I would say yes, but like Miles going to Michigan, he isn't going to do it in the middle of a national championship run. Now if he loses the SEC championship game, there is a chance.
A good coach at ND can out recruit any school, even USC. Charlie Weiss went 3-10 or whatever and pulled a top 10 recruiting class, what do you think a guy with a 10-3 record would do?
Never underestimate the draw of ND to a kid from NE Ohio. - Question:-Why are people coming down on Urban Meyer?
All Urban Meyer did was go to bat for his team, like any good coach should. He fought for his players and his program, never coming down on Michigan. I don't see what the problem is.
Zach,
If that is the case shouldn't michigan fans be mad at Carr, for not stating his case.
I seriously doubt coaches and analysts put much weight on Urban Meyer's press.
Answer:-your right, people i guess dont understand what sticking up for something you believe in is. in urbans case is that his gators deserve to play for a national title. i guess its wrong to stick up for what u believe in(michigan fans). people need to back off the man and just accept the fact that the gators are playing for it all, you cant change that.
GO GATORS - Question:-Who will coach Michigan next year Les Miles or Urban Meyer?
Les Miles went to Michigan and has already expressed intrest in the job, and Urban Meyer is from Ohio and has an out in his contract if he leaves to coach Michigan, Ohio State, or Notre Dame. Plus he has already made it obvious that he would much rather coach in the mid-west than down south.
Answer:-i wish it was ron english
but i'll take miles - Question:-How long will Urban Meyer's suspension be for calling out officials for missing the late hit on Tebow?
And what will his fine be?
BQ: When will Florida have to play by the same rules as everybody else?
Answer:-He should be suspended indefinitely and fine the Florida program 250,000 dollars. Hey Zinger, how much you wanna bet that if Kiffin had of said that their wouldn't be a suspension? That guy has no right to say anything about the refs. Let's just say that the calls have went Florida's way this year. I hope the refs enjoy it bause they ain't gonna be able to save Urban's candy a$$ next year!
Edit: Zing....I hate to break this to you but just because its going on in other conferences doesn't make it right. Can't believe out of all the people on here, you would throw that argument. And also, I spent years steaming about Steve Spurrier and the crap he used to mouth off about and the SEC never did a damn thing to him. Now they get mad cause the new kid on the playground ain't scared of them. They can rot in hell. Urban's just as much a punk as the rest of them. - Question:-Where does Urban Meyer's daughter, Nikki, go to school?
I have a friend in Florida who claims he goes to school with Nikki Meyer, Urban Meyer's (Head coach for the University of Florida) daughter. I know she goes to school in Gainesville somewhere. I heard a private Catholic school, but I dunno where.
I tried searching for her on facebook, but no luck.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!
Answer:-You win creepiest question of the year.

coach outlet
- Question:-Coach outlet?
I was wondering about the prices at coach outlets.How much of a a difference is there between outlet prices and normal prices? For wristlets? For small purses? Big purses? do they sell shoes there?scarves?
Any information will help.
Thank you.
(and if you are wondering, yes i have asked this question before)
What is the cheapest thing you can get there and for how much?
Answer:-There is a bit of a difference in the price. you can find all those items there even clothing. I bought a small purse for $99. I dont think i would have been able to get that price any where else. they carring sun glasses scarves jackets brief cases and everything. Good Luck girl! :) - Question:-How much are Coach purses at an Outlet mall?
Theres a Coach outlet near where I live, but how much of a discount do you get at these stores? Is there really some little detail wrong with them that makes them cheaper? How much do they generally start at at an Outlet?
Answer:-I love the coach outlet stores. There is also one near my house. The bags will range from $40-350. They are authentic bags if you buy them from the Coach outlet store. They cost less because companies often make too many bags every season and they need to get rid of their overstock. They don't want to keep out of season bags at their regular stores next to the brand new designs. As long as you shop at the companies store, authenticity should be guaranteed. Hope that clears it up for you! - Question:-Does anyone know if the Coach outlet stores carry shoes or other items besides purses ?
I'm planning to go on vacation this summer and I know there is an outlet center there with a Coach store ,but I can't remember if most of the stores carry the shoes and other accesories . If anyone is aware I'd love to know . Thanks ! :)
Answer:-it all depends on the outlet some carry the entire coach line others just the bags-get the phone #from 411 and call ahead to find out if the one you're going to does-happy vacationing! - Question:-How Much Are Coach Purses at an Outlet?
I am going to a outlet mall with a Coach outlet soon. I wonder how much to bring to the outlet for a purse. So how much are they usually?
Answer:-i just got a new coach bag. mine was $358.75, and it was about the same as the others, so about 350 dollars - Question:-If you work at a full price Coach store in a mall can you still recieve the 50% off discount at a Coach Outlet?
I work at a full price Coach store. I want to know if I can go to one of their Factory Outlets and I can still get my employee discount? I know they even have more sales at the outlets, can I get 50% off that too? Also, does anyone know if the sale prices online at the outlet site is the same as in store? Sorry alot of questions I know! Thanks!
Answer:-No you cannot, the outlet is not in conjunction with the store. You can get discounts at all Coach stores but not Coach Outlets because you don't work at an outlet.
Atleast where I'm from you can't. - Question:-How early do I need to be at a coach outlet on black friday?
I'm driving 5 hours to Cabazon. I noticed the outlet is having midnight madness. First, I didn't see the Coach was participating in that. But, in all, because of the line, how early should we get there??? Thx!
Answer:- - Question:-Can you get Coach handbags for cheaper at outlet stores?
I was just wondering if you can get a Coach handbag cheaper at one of those outlet malls? Like at a Coach outlet.
Answer:-At Coach outlets the purses are about 150.00 and they always give every customer a 30% off coupon or as much as 50% off(: - Question:-Why are the purses cheaper at a Coach outlet?
I got a new bag from a Coach Outlet and it was originally $320 or so. I got it for somewhere around $150 + tax. Not bad...
But i'm wondering why the purses at a Coach Factory outlet are cheaper than in regular Coach stores. Is it because they're out of season or older? Are they still REAL and not fake?
Answer:-Yes, they are authentic, otherwise it would be illegal. Coach Factory outlets always sell authentic items. They are cheaper because they are from last season and the stores need to clear out inventory to make room for new season items so they send them to the outlet. They also send them to the oultet if there is something wrong with it like wrong sticthing or tagging but its usually not noticeable. - Question:-Can you return a purse bought at a Coach Outlet at a regular Coach store?
I got something from a coach outlet for christmas that i didn't like and I wasn't sure if i was even able to return it because it came from the coach outlet and i don't live close to one.
Answer:-Yes you can. My sister works at Coach and I know this as a fact! - Question:-Has anyone used a Coach gift certificate at the Coach Outlet?
I have a Coach Credit for a damaged bag that Coach could not repair. Does anyone know if the credit can be used at a Coach Outlet store also?
Answer:-i dont think u can i tried the same thing but at an old navy outlet

hope solo
- Question:-Hope Solo????
Why did hope solo (the goalie) get kicked off usa women's soccer team????
Answer:-when i saw solo make the comments, i took it as she was critical of a bad coach making a bad decision. i didn't think she meant that scurry was a bad player, we all know she's not. but, solo was the hot hand and scurry had not played in along time. it was just a coach trying to regain control of a team that should have never been his! these players entire lives are built around this sport and the few moments they have to let people see it at it's best, and he took that moment away from the team, as well as solo and the people who watch it. it should be ryan apologizing to the team, solo and the fans that follow this team and the women who live for it. i think she should be disciplined, but not as severely as he is doing being that he will be fired after this next match. solo will and should be back for she has earned the spot as number 1 goalie and despite backlash on her comments, she was right about the soon-to-be ex-coach of the women's team. - Question:-What happened to Abby Wambach in the Olympics and when did Hope Solo start playing?
I noticed Abby Wambach wasn't in the Olympics with the USA women's soccer team; was she injured? Also, when did Hope Solo start keeping goal again? What happened to Brianna Scurry?
Answer:-Abby Wambach suffered a broken tibia and fibula in the 31st minute of their final tune-up match for the Olympic games vs. Brazil. She collided with Brazillian defender Andreia Rosa.
I've included a link below where you can read the whole story.
Yes, Hope Solo is the goal keeper. It seems as if she has made peace with the US National Team and coaches. Brianna Scurry is getting a little old, and Hope is younger and moves better. - Question:-Where can I buy a purple Hope Solo jersey?
Hope Solo is basically my idol. I'm also a goalkeeper, and just the way she handles herself on the field is amazing to me. Anyways, I would really like to find a PURPLE Hope Solo jersey. I have been searching and searching, but to no avail. Does anyone know where I could purchase one?
Answer:-You can't, because the idiots at Nike don't make them. What a missed marketing opportunity. (They don't make the Tim Howard kit, either. Sigh.) - Question:-How can I get my wife to be more like Hope Solo?
I want her to be more like Hope Solo. Can you help me in this journey towards her greatness?
Answer:-It will take some effort on your part. A great deal of plastic surgery will be required. Are you willing to fork over the $45,000 for a new chizzled jaw and DSL's? - Question:-what game did hope solo play bad in so that she didn't play against Brazil in the 2007 world cup semi final?
there was a game where hope solo played really poorly. It was the 2007 world cup quarterfinal but i don't know who it was against. Can someone put the link of a video of the saves that she missed?
Answer:-It had nothing to do with how well or bad Hope Solo had played in the tournament. Coach Greg Ryan decided to start Briana Scurry over Solo because of Scurry's past experience in big game situations.
Many called it a bad decision even before the Brazil game had kicked off. - Question:-Does anyone know where to purchase a hope solo goalkeeper jersey of any color? Or some other type of clothing?
To me hope solo is my idol because im a goalkeeper and she inspires me and when i play on the field i want something from her with me on the field when i play. And if you do know please be more specific than just saying "the store " thank you.
Answer:-You can buy goalkeeper jerseys on eBay at
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=9&pub=5574634183&toolid=10001&campid=5335994191&customid=&icep_uq=goalkeeper+jersey&icep_sellerId=&icep_ex_kw=&icep_sortBy=12&icep_catId=&icep_minPrice=&icep_maxPrice=&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg - Question:-Where can I buy a Hope Solo jersey?
I'm looking for a Hope Solo jersey I don't mind any particular color.
Answer:-i got mine at a local soccer plus store... if u cant find it at a local one near by just ask da place u went to if they can make some calls to da other soccer plus stores, thats how i got my sister her abby wambach jersey.. - Question:-I wanted to know what anyone thought about the whole hope solo vs greg ryan situation?
(personally i'm with hope solo and think ryan was completely wrong in playing scurry instead of her. for some reason if i was her i wouldn't play unless he takes responsibility and admit that he should have started solo in the first place)
Answer:-i'm with hope solo on this one. The thing that annoys me the most is that he still won't admit it's his fault and is instead trying to make it look like Hope Solo is in the wrong by doing those interviews. she has a right to free speech and now, she's getting punished for it when it's really his fault. She already said that it wasn't directed at Scurry. What else does the stupid coach want? - Question:-Where do I buy a hope solo jersey?
I'm looking to purchase a USA national team jersey and I wish for it to be the goalkeeper, Hope Solo. Does anyone know where I can find one online? I can't seem to anywhere.
Thanks.
Answer:-I read on her Twitter she is requesting that Nike sells her purple jersey, so there may be one to buy in the near future. Otherwise there are none avalible now. - Question:-Where can I buy a Hope Solo poster?
Hope Solo plays for the USA soccer team. She is the goalkeeper.
Answer:-look on the net there are several
ps look this fansite

urban meyer ohio state
- Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer will be the new Ohio State Football Coach?
According to someone I know down at OSU, he WILL be the next coach. He initially stated, "Urban meyer, welcome to THE Ohio State University." via Facebook. I asked if he had any insider information and he said that "it will be announced after the "that state up north" vs. ohio state game this saturday."
GO BUCKS!!!
What do you think?
Well, its kind of funny that they are pulling Urban Meyer from ESPN's broadcast of the Ohio State/Michigan game. Seems kind of fishy.
Answer:- - Question:-Why does the news announce a 7 yr 40 million dollar deal between Ohio State and Urban Meyer?
But the following day he denies that there is a deal.
They even went as far as to name the Assistant Coaches too.
Is there a deal or not? 40 Million is a lot of money for a coach.
Answer:-One thing I've learned the past couple years with college ball and coaching jobs is that if they deny it, it's more than likely true. - Question:-So is Urban Meyer going to be Ohio State's new coach or not?
The media say yes, but Meyer so no deal.
Answer:- - Question:-Who thinks Urban Meyer will coach Ohio State next year?
Answer:- - Question:-Will Urban Meyer end up coaching the Ohio State Buckeyes one day?
We all know Florida Coach Urban Meyer was born in Ohio and went to OSU for school, he also got his coaching start at Ohio State. Now that he has proven himself at Florida to be among the elite coaches in the NCAA like Pete Carroll and Jim Tressell and Les Miles, he can probably coach wherever he'd like.
One day, a day I hope is a very long ways away, Jim Tressell will step down from coaching the Buckeyes, and will probably be remembered as one of the best if not the best Buckeye coach ever, and probably one of College Footballs best ever. When that day comes, do you think Urban Meyer will assume position of head coach at Ohio State? Its pretty likely in my opinion, although it would be 10-15 years down the road.
What do you think?
Answer:-Actually you may be right. I was listening to a call in sports show for the SEC and this subject came up several times. - Question:-Urban Meyer to coach Ohio State?
so much for being with his familia, ur thoughts
Answer:-My thoughts are he'll have another nervous breakdown in 4-5 years. - Question:-Do you think urban meyer will coach at ohio state?
Answer:-Yes. Dumbasses at Ohio St. will hire a coach who can't handle pressure and gets nervous breakdowns.
How's Florida doing this year, and last? LMAO!
_______
Becuase Florida's is a totally crappy place. In any case, dumbass, he's from Ohio and he currently lives there.. - Question:-Will Urban Meyer be the next coach of Ohio State?
What are your thoughts?
Answer:-The possibilities are good....Meyer and Ohio State are going back & forth about the pay for Meyer and his being able to pay top dollar to the assistants he is gonna hire...I believe we will see this come about in the next few days.... - Question:-OHIO STATE BUCKEYES coach Tressel resigns! Urban Meyer set too take over at OSU. good or bad?
Now that urban meyer is going too sign at OSU, is this good or bad? if you remember urban meyer is from the univ of cincinnati and from ohio, so this is not foreign territory. but why hang Tressel and fire the man? with all of the systematic bs in the ncaa everywhere why hang tressel? what did he do that was so terrible? he covered up for his guys.... who hasnt? the rest is guilt by association! opinions? is this the end of the ohio state buckeyes dominance? thanks
steroid moe? do i have standards? Im a realist, and too compete and stay at the top of the ncaa in collegiate football one has too lie, bend the rules and leave out the truth or enjoy losing. dont think so? look at the thugs that got em in this mess? do folks really believe these kids really go too class and take exams like the rest of the student body? this is a billion dollar a year industry, sorry, too much at stake too walk the straight n narrow. and you people that say you would snitch and come clean on your starting quarterback? BS..... Tressel did what any good coach would do! could we imagine tressel comin clean too the ncaa and telling them that his starting quarterback sold his own property? then when the kid is suspended all season or the season is ruined? tressel gets slaughtered, morale goes in the sewer....
Answer:-as a michigan & msu fan...i have to say...
tressel set a very high standard on the field...
he is a coach who elevated the big ten to a nationally recognoized an respected level.
yea, he made some stupid mistakes...many do when they get to a level like this and are "expected" to "accomplish"
and while as a michigander...im no OSU fan...i do appreciate the intensity he brought to the rivalry...
too bad...gonna miss him...
pretty big shoes to fill...IMO...
i think they'll remain unfilled for quite a while....
just my opinion... - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer will be the Coach of Ohio State next year, he was born and raised in Ohio?
He also graduated from Ohio State and coached as a Graduate Assistant there.
I do not think Luke Fickell is ready to be Head Coach, although he filled the role this year, he did not have the down to the detail preparation that Jim Tressel had. I think Urban Meyer would have the team ready to compete at a high level every Saturday. That is why I think Ohio State will make him an offer, even if he only does it for a couple of years, it will help to get the program back on track, but I hope he signs on to coach for a decade or more. Urban Meyer is only 48 and is still relatively young for a coach.
Answer:-I heard that rumor the other day. My dad read on the bottom ticker on the tv during Saturday's game that Meyer bought a house in C-Bus two months ago.
Meyer lived in Ohio not that long ago. His family is here. He coached for Bowling Green up here near Toledo before moving out to (I think) Utah.
urban meyer
- Question:-Urban Meyer?
What a cry baby?"They had their shot and we play in the toug (studders) I mean one of the toughest confrences. Loyd Carr said the right stuff and Meyer was about to cry.
Way to have sportsmanship
Answer:-Hey he was just taking a page out of Mack Brown's book when Brown lobbied to get Texas into the Rose Bowl 2 years ago. I think it's ridiculous to "campaign" to get your team into a BCS game. The coaches seem to double as politicians. - Question:-Are Utah fans embarrassed that urban meyer was once a coach there?
Utah's program is squeaky clean and it appears urban meyer along with floriduh and the $chedule ea$y cupcake$ conference have $old their integrity for bc$ big buck$. If spikes had gouged out 1 eye, urban meyer would have sugar coated the assault by saying Washaun Ealey still has 1 eye.
Answer:-I think Utah fans are happy that they have their current coach, and that Meyer took his lack of integrity elsewhere. - Question:-Why do some football fans at Florida compare Urban Meyer to Steve Spurrier?
Spurrier helped Florida win its first national title (first is always hardest especially when at that time FSU and Miami had more advantages to better recruits). He helped USC returned from the pits of college football to a SEC East division winner. Urban Meyer was lucky to have Ron Zook his first National Title and Tim Tebow in his second one.
Answer:-Now matter who the coach is Spurrier will be the one that the coach is compared to. He was an all american football player & Heisman winner at Florida & also led them to their first national championship. Similar to what if is at Alabama. The "Bear" will always be in the discussion there. RT - Question:-What do you think about Tom Brady's demand that the Patriots hire Urban Meyer as offensive coordinator???
Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe is reporting that Tom Brady was disgusted with the offensive play-calling during the Super Bowl and demanded that a change be made. Just yesterday Brady called both Bill Belichick and VP of Player Personell Scott Pioli to give them permission to do what it takes to get Urban Meyer. Apparently Brady is enamored with Meyer's success running the spead-offense and believes he'd have no problem adjusting from the college game to the NFL. Would Urban Meyer be a good fit for the Patriots??
Answer:-I think that would be a good choice.
Hasn't anybody figured out he is making this stuff up? By the way I think it is very amusing. - Question:-Who is a better coach Pete Carroll or Urban Meyer?
I would personally say Urban Meyer, he just took the College Football world by storm in a mere 3 years.
Answer:-I'd take Carrol. - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer would leave Florida to coach Notre Dame?
Next week Urban Meyer can talk to other schools about leaving Florida do you think he would leave for Notre Dame? If he did how soon would it take the Irish to become a national power again?
Answer:-If it were after last season, I would say yes, but like Miles going to Michigan, he isn't going to do it in the middle of a national championship run. Now if he loses the SEC championship game, there is a chance.
A good coach at ND can out recruit any school, even USC. Charlie Weiss went 3-10 or whatever and pulled a top 10 recruiting class, what do you think a guy with a 10-3 record would do?
Never underestimate the draw of ND to a kid from NE Ohio. - Question:-Why are people coming down on Urban Meyer?
All Urban Meyer did was go to bat for his team, like any good coach should. He fought for his players and his program, never coming down on Michigan. I don't see what the problem is.
Zach,
If that is the case shouldn't michigan fans be mad at Carr, for not stating his case.
I seriously doubt coaches and analysts put much weight on Urban Meyer's press.
Answer:-your right, people i guess dont understand what sticking up for something you believe in is. in urbans case is that his gators deserve to play for a national title. i guess its wrong to stick up for what u believe in(michigan fans). people need to back off the man and just accept the fact that the gators are playing for it all, you cant change that.
GO GATORS - Question:-Who will coach Michigan next year Les Miles or Urban Meyer?
Les Miles went to Michigan and has already expressed intrest in the job, and Urban Meyer is from Ohio and has an out in his contract if he leaves to coach Michigan, Ohio State, or Notre Dame. Plus he has already made it obvious that he would much rather coach in the mid-west than down south.
Answer:-i wish it was ron english
but i'll take miles - Question:-How long will Urban Meyer's suspension be for calling out officials for missing the late hit on Tebow?
And what will his fine be?
BQ: When will Florida have to play by the same rules as everybody else?
Answer:-He should be suspended indefinitely and fine the Florida program 250,000 dollars. Hey Zinger, how much you wanna bet that if Kiffin had of said that their wouldn't be a suspension? That guy has no right to say anything about the refs. Let's just say that the calls have went Florida's way this year. I hope the refs enjoy it bause they ain't gonna be able to save Urban's candy a$$ next year!
Edit: Zing....I hate to break this to you but just because its going on in other conferences doesn't make it right. Can't believe out of all the people on here, you would throw that argument. And also, I spent years steaming about Steve Spurrier and the crap he used to mouth off about and the SEC never did a damn thing to him. Now they get mad cause the new kid on the playground ain't scared of them. They can rot in hell. Urban's just as much a punk as the rest of them. - Question:-Where does Urban Meyer's daughter, Nikki, go to school?
I have a friend in Florida who claims he goes to school with Nikki Meyer, Urban Meyer's (Head coach for the University of Florida) daughter. I know she goes to school in Gainesville somewhere. I heard a private Catholic school, but I dunno where.
I tried searching for her on facebook, but no luck.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!
Answer:-You win creepiest question of the year.

macys
- Question:-macys?????????
does the macys at 4000 W. Diversey Ave Chicago, IL 60639 sell clothing or is it just a matress and furniture center??????
please help
Answer:-clothing and mattress and furniture. i went to the exact mall when i was on vacation. i bought like three skater shirts and some tight jeans there. and i also remember seeing mattresses and furniture there. - Question:-How does the Macys employee discount work?
I just got a job at Macys...they haven't explained the employee discount to me yet, so I need to know. They pay practically nothing (this is by far the lowest I've been paid in my life), and if the discount isn't good I might not go to training. Do I need to use my Macys credit card? What departments don't get discounts? Can I use the discount at sister stores?
I've previously read that you need to have the credit card to get the discount. I know it's 20% but it doesn't include all departments. If Coach and Movado aren't included, I'm out of there.
Answer:-i worked at macys to and the pay was horrible. the discount works likes this u have the credit card and u can use it anywhere in the store and they take 10% off of your monthly bill. - Question:-will my macys employment discount work with other coupons and merchandise already discounted?
I was wondering if my macys employment discount would work on already discounted items on the sale racks. Also, if it would work with international visitors pass, all-day savings pass, etc?? Let me know. Thanks!
Answer:-i believe it works on sales items but not in combination with actual coupons, it's considered double dipping - Question:-I bought a dress at macys can I return it to a different macys where I originally bought it?
I bought a dress at macys and I want to return it, does it have to be the macys I bought it from or can I return it to any macys?
Answer:-yeah you can. as long as you have the receipt :) - Question:-How do I order stuff from Macys that is not available in the store?
There is this blazer that I want and I have to be measured for it and the blazer is not in the store. What I want to know is would they measure me and can I place the order for the blazer and pick it up at Macys or do I have to buy it online.
Answer:-you can probably go to the store and have them measure you. call macys and ask them what to do. :] - Question:-How does working at Nordstrom compare to working at Macys?
Currently I'm working at a Macys store in the housewares department. Macys cuts my hours and doesn't treat its employees very well. I went to a job interview at Nordstrom two days ago and they said they will call me on Tuesday.
Is Nordstom a better company to work for? How is working at Nordstrom as a cashier?
Answer:-Nordstrom is awesome! however I work there in sales so I dunno about JUST being a cashier. I do both. If you ever get the chance to work there you should.. mostly because if you leave on good terms you are always welcome back. You can work just holidays or for the sales every year if you really wanted to. They love to hire within so its easy to go to school and come and go for summers and holidays for extra money. - Question:-Which job would be a better option Whole Foods supermarket or Macys retail clothes store?
In the past I would have said the clothes store, but the thing is this supermarket pays $10 dollars an hour which is more than the clothes store. Also I think the supermarket gives more hours which I is good for me. Is there more oportunitinies in this Whole Foods supermarket or macys to move up?
Ok, not just Macys but any other clothes or shoe store, are they still better than supermarkets, or does it depends what company it is?
Answer:-you should work at macy's. while whole foods may pay more, macy's offer more levels of management, so within a month you can get a promotion, 6 months another promotion and after a year you can become a sales manager. - Question:-Is it the same thing buying a coach bag from Macys or the Boutique?
I am just wondering because is it good to either go to Macys to buy the bag or the Coach boutique? I perfer the boutique for some reason. I know its the same but I rather get it from a coach boutique. Of course, i am comparing Macy's and the boutique when the bags aren't on sale.
So Which one would you prefer to go to Boutique or Macys? This can apply to other bags such a dooney and bourke, LV, etc? Or is this a difference at all?
Lol! I am from NYC too!
Answer:-A Coach bag, or a Juicy Couture or a Kate Spade handbag are EXACTLY the same if you buy them from a boutique or a department store. Personally I like to buy them from the place where I can get them for the least amount of money.
Because of this, I buy nearly all my handbags from eBay. I have very expensive tastes, but a not so expensive budget so I can get very high end bags on eBay for less money. My last purchase was a $695 Isabella Fiore handbag that I paid $219 for! If your not familiar with Isabella Fiore - you must check her out - her bags are works of art! - Question:-Can I return a food processor to Macys after 5 months without a box?
I received a food processor/blender for my birthday 5 months ago and I noticed that when I use it, which is seldom, it has a very sharp loud noise. I have seen reviews for it online and it seems that others have encountered the same. I don't even want to use it because of the horrible noise. Can I return it to Macys without a box?
I used it at most 5 times and it was only the processor part where the bowl was easily cleaned. The item looks Brand New. I have the original receipt.
Answer:-"Most macys.com items can be returned to a Macy's store, with original proof of purchase, within 180 days (6 months) of purchase. Read items with special guidelines for information about restrictions on store returns, as well as other restrictions."
Food processors don't count as "items with special guidelines" and their policy makes no mention of original packaging.
If the item is defective, at this point, chances are they would refer you to the manufacturer.
If the item works well but is obviously used they might not take it back on that account.
If you have all parts and it's not used (or at least look like it) I would think the answer would be yes. - Question:-What makeup product should I get at Macys?
What makeup product should I get today at Macys up to 20$. I really can't think of anything I want, any suggestions?
Answer:-Clinique is on money range you want to spend like 23 I suggest almost foundation is good.

urban meyer ohio state
- Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer will be the new Ohio State Football Coach?
According to someone I know down at OSU, he WILL be the next coach. He initially stated, "Urban meyer, welcome to THE Ohio State University." via Facebook. I asked if he had any insider information and he said that "it will be announced after the "that state up north" vs. ohio state game this saturday."
GO BUCKS!!!
What do you think?
Well, its kind of funny that they are pulling Urban Meyer from ESPN's broadcast of the Ohio State/Michigan game. Seems kind of fishy.
Answer:- - Question:-Why does the news announce a 7 yr 40 million dollar deal between Ohio State and Urban Meyer?
But the following day he denies that there is a deal.
They even went as far as to name the Assistant Coaches too.
Is there a deal or not? 40 Million is a lot of money for a coach.
Answer:-One thing I've learned the past couple years with college ball and coaching jobs is that if they deny it, it's more than likely true. - Question:-Who thinks Urban Meyer will coach Ohio State next year?
Answer:- - Question:-Will Urban Meyer end up coaching the Ohio State Buckeyes one day?
We all know Florida Coach Urban Meyer was born in Ohio and went to OSU for school, he also got his coaching start at Ohio State. Now that he has proven himself at Florida to be among the elite coaches in the NCAA like Pete Carroll and Jim Tressell and Les Miles, he can probably coach wherever he'd like.
One day, a day I hope is a very long ways away, Jim Tressell will step down from coaching the Buckeyes, and will probably be remembered as one of the best if not the best Buckeye coach ever, and probably one of College Footballs best ever. When that day comes, do you think Urban Meyer will assume position of head coach at Ohio State? Its pretty likely in my opinion, although it would be 10-15 years down the road.
What do you think?
Answer:-Actually you may be right. I was listening to a call in sports show for the SEC and this subject came up several times. - Question:-Urban Meyer to coach Ohio State?
so much for being with his familia, ur thoughts
Answer:-My thoughts are he'll have another nervous breakdown in 4-5 years. - Question:-Do you think urban meyer will coach at ohio state?
Answer:- - Question:-Will Urban Meyer be the next coach of Ohio State?
What are your thoughts?
Answer:- - Question:-OHIO STATE BUCKEYES coach Tressel resigns! Urban Meyer set too take over at OSU. good or bad?
Now that urban meyer is going too sign at OSU, is this good or bad? if you remember urban meyer is from the univ of cincinnati and from ohio, so this is not foreign territory. but why hang Tressel and fire the man? with all of the systematic bs in the ncaa everywhere why hang tressel? what did he do that was so terrible? he covered up for his guys.... who hasnt? the rest is guilt by association! opinions? is this the end of the ohio state buckeyes dominance? thanks
steroid moe? do i have standards? Im a realist, and too compete and stay at the top of the ncaa in collegiate football one has too lie, bend the rules and leave out the truth or enjoy losing. dont think so? look at the thugs that got em in this mess? do folks really believe these kids really go too class and take exams like the rest of the student body? this is a billion dollar a year industry, sorry, too much at stake too walk the straight n narrow. and you people that say you would snitch and come clean on your starting quarterback? BS..... Tressel did what any good coach would do! could we imagine tressel comin clean too the ncaa and telling them that his starting quarterback sold his own property? then when the kid is suspended all season or the season is ruined? tressel gets slaughtered, morale goes in the sewer....
Answer:-as a michigan & msu fan...i have to say...
tressel set a very high standard on the field...
he is a coach who elevated the big ten to a nationally recognoized an respected level.
yea, he made some stupid mistakes...many do when they get to a level like this and are "expected" to "accomplish"
and while as a michigander...im no OSU fan...i do appreciate the intensity he brought to the rivalry...
too bad...gonna miss him...
pretty big shoes to fill...IMO...
i think they'll remain unfilled for quite a while....
just my opinion... - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer will be the Coach of Ohio State next year, he was born and raised in Ohio?
He also graduated from Ohio State and coached as a Graduate Assistant there.
I do not think Luke Fickell is ready to be Head Coach, although he filled the role this year, he did not have the down to the detail preparation that Jim Tressel had. I think Urban Meyer would have the team ready to compete at a high level every Saturday. That is why I think Ohio State will make him an offer, even if he only does it for a couple of years, it will help to get the program back on track, but I hope he signs on to coach for a decade or more. Urban Meyer is only 48 and is still relatively young for a coach.
Answer:-I heard that rumor the other day. My dad read on the bottom ticker on the tv during Saturday's game that Meyer bought a house in C-Bus two months ago.
Meyer lived in Ohio not that long ago. His family is here. He coached for Bowling Green up here near Toledo before moving out to (I think) Utah. - Question:-Why don't these idiotic gators realize Ohio State is still better??? (Urban Meyer is a Buckeye remember!!!)
Yes I know Florida won the game 41-14. But that was not a sign of the better team, and program for that matter. Why was it nominated for "Best Upset" at the ESPY's? Ohio State and the Big 10 is where real football is played. Look at the list of talent Ohio State has given the NFL in the past 10-15 years.

Im a realist, and too compete and stay at the top of the ncaa in collegiate football one has too lie, bend the rules and leave out the truth or enjoy losing. dont think so? look at the thugs that got em in this mess? do folks really believe these kids really go too class and take exams like the rest of the student body? this is a billion dollar a year industry, sorry, too much at stake too walk the straight n narrow. and you people that say you would snitch and come clean on your starting quarterback? BS..... Tressel did what any good coach would do! could we imagine tressel comin clean too the ncaa and telling them that his starting quarterback sold his own property? then when the kid is suspended all season or the season is ruined? tressel gets slaughtered, morale goes in the sewer....
Answer:-as a michigan & msu fan...i have to say...
tressel set a very high standard on the field...
he is a coach who elevated the big ten to a nationally recognoized an respected level.
yea, he made some stupid mistakes...many do when they get to a level like this and are "expected" to "accomplish"
and while as a michigander...im no OSU fan...i do appreciate the intensity he brought to the rivalry...
too bad...gonna miss him...
pretty big shoes to fill...IMO...
i think they'll remain unfilled for quite a while....
just my opinion... - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer will be the Coach of Ohio State next year, he was born and raised in Ohio?
He also graduated from Ohio State and coached as a Graduate Assistant there.
I do not think Luke Fickell is ready to be Head Coach, although he filled the role this year, he did not have the down to the detail preparation that Jim Tressel had. I think Urban Meyer would have the team ready to compete at a high level every Saturday. That is why I think Ohio State will make him an offer, even if he only does it for a couple of years, it will help to get the program back on track, but I hope he signs on to coach for a decade or more. Urban Meyer is only 48 and is still relatively young for a coach.
Answer:-I heard that rumor the other day. My dad read on the bottom ticker on the tv during Saturday's game that Meyer bought a house in C-Bus two months ago.
Meyer lived in Ohio not that long ago. His family is here. He coached for Bowling Green up here near Toledo before moving out to (I think) Utah. - Question:-Why don't these idiotic gators realize Ohio State is still better??? (Urban Meyer is a Buckeye remember!!!)
Yes I know Florida won the game 41-14. But that was not a sign of the better team, and program for that matter. Why was it nominated for "Best Upset" at the ESPY's? Ohio State and the Big 10 is where real football is played. Look at the list of talent Ohio State has given the NFL in the past 10-15 years.

urban meyer
- Question:-Urban Meyer?
What a cry baby?"They had their shot and we play in the toug (studders) I mean one of the toughest confrences. Loyd Carr said the right stuff and Meyer was about to cry.
Way to have sportsmanship
Answer:-Hey he was just taking a page out of Mack Brown's book when Brown lobbied to get Texas into the Rose Bowl 2 years ago. I think it's ridiculous to "campaign" to get your team into a BCS game. The coaches seem to double as politicians. - Question:-Are Utah fans embarrassed that urban meyer was once a coach there?
Utah's program is squeaky clean and it appears urban meyer along with floriduh and the $chedule ea$y cupcake$ conference have $old their integrity for bc$ big buck$. If spikes had gouged out 1 eye, urban meyer would have sugar coated the assault by saying Washaun Ealey still has 1 eye.
Answer:-I think Utah fans are happy that they have their current coach, and that Meyer took his lack of integrity elsewhere. - Question:-Why do some football fans at Florida compare Urban Meyer to Steve Spurrier?
Spurrier helped Florida win its first national title (first is always hardest especially when at that time FSU and Miami had more advantages to better recruits). He helped USC returned from the pits of college football to a SEC East division winner. Urban Meyer was lucky to have Ron Zook his first National Title and Tim Tebow in his second one.
Answer:-Now matter who the coach is Spurrier will be the one that the coach is compared to. He was an all american football player & Heisman winner at Florida & also led them to their first national championship. Similar to what if is at Alabama. The "Bear" will always be in the discussion there. RT - Question:-What do you think about Tom Brady's demand that the Patriots hire Urban Meyer as offensive coordinator???
Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe is reporting that Tom Brady was disgusted with the offensive play-calling during the Super Bowl and demanded that a change be made. Just yesterday Brady called both Bill Belichick and VP of Player Personell Scott Pioli to give them permission to do what it takes to get Urban Meyer. Apparently Brady is enamored with Meyer's success running the spead-offense and believes he'd have no problem adjusting from the college game to the NFL. Would Urban Meyer be a good fit for the Patriots??
Answer:-I think that would be a good choice.
Hasn't anybody figured out he is making this stuff up? By the way I think it is very amusing. - Question:-Who is a better coach Pete Carroll or Urban Meyer?
I would personally say Urban Meyer, he just took the College Football world by storm in a mere 3 years.
Answer:-I'd take Carrol. - Question:-Do you think Urban Meyer would leave Florida to coach Notre Dame?
Next week Urban Meyer can talk to other schools about leaving Florida do you think he would leave for Notre Dame? If he did how soon would it take the Irish to become a national power again?
Answer:-If it were after last season, I would say yes, but like Miles going to Michigan, he isn't going to do it in the middle of a national championship run. Now if he loses the SEC championship game, there is a chance.
A good coach at ND can out recruit any school, even USC. Charlie Weiss went 3-10 or whatever and pulled a top 10 recruiting class, what do you think a guy with a 10-3 record would do?
Never underestimate the draw of ND to a kid from NE Ohio. - Question:-Why are people coming down on Urban Meyer?
All Urban Meyer did was go to bat for his team, like any good coach should. He fought for his players and his program, never coming down on Michigan. I don't see what the problem is.
Zach,
If that is the case shouldn't michigan fans be mad at Carr, for not stating his case.
I seriously doubt coaches and analysts put much weight on Urban Meyer's press.
Answer:-your right, people i guess dont understand what sticking up for something you believe in is. in urbans case is that his gators deserve to play for a national title. i guess its wrong to stick up for what u believe in(michigan fans). people need to back off the man and just accept the fact that the gators are playing for it all, you cant change that.
GO GATORS - Question:-Who will coach Michigan next year Les Miles or Urban Meyer?
Les Miles went to Michigan and has already expressed intrest in the job, and Urban Meyer is from Ohio and has an out in his contract if he leaves to coach Michigan, Ohio State, or Notre Dame. Plus he has already made it obvious that he would much rather coach in the mid-west than down south.
Answer:-i wish it was ron english
but i'll take miles - Question:-How long will Urban Meyer's suspension be for calling out officials for missing the late hit on Tebow?
And what will his fine be?
BQ: When will Florida have to play by the same rules as everybody else?
Answer:-He should be suspended indefinitely and fine the Florida program 250,000 dollars. Hey Zinger, how much you wanna bet that if Kiffin had of said that their wouldn't be a suspension? That guy has no right to say anything about the refs. Let's just say that the calls have went Florida's way this year. I hope the refs enjoy it bause they ain't gonna be able to save Urban's candy a$$ next year!
Edit: Zing....I hate to break this to you but just because its going on in other conferences doesn't make it right. Can't believe out of all the people on here, you would throw that argument. And also, I spent years steaming about Steve Spurrier and the crap he used to mouth off about and the SEC never did a damn thing to him. Now they get mad cause the new kid on the playground ain't scared of them. They can rot in hell. Urban's just as much a punk as the rest of them. - Question:-Where does Urban Meyer's daughter, Nikki, go to school?
I have a friend in Florida who claims he goes to school with Nikki Meyer, Urban Meyer's (Head coach for the University of Florida) daughter. I know she goes to school in Gainesville somewhere. I heard a private Catholic school, but I dunno where.
I tried searching for her on facebook, but no luck.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Need some suggestions on the following question:
How do the stakeholders between the NBA and the Euroleague and UK league basketball differ in influence and power?
Much appreciated,
John
Answer:-Stakeholders from the NBA are able to benefit more in terms of influence and power because the NBA is on a worldwide scale, and often considered the most competitive and popular basketball league in the world. The Euroleague and UK basketball are becoming more popular but it will be a long time before either surpasses the NBA. - Question:-Is UK basketball becoming a national phenomina or a cult?
When a school like UK draws 25,000 to see an exhibition game and 25,000 to see their midnight madness practice how do you explain this hype or phenomina surrounding a basketball game?
Answer:- - Question:-UK Basketball?
Is anyone else hoping that the University of Kentucky makes the NCAA Tournament? I just love it when CBS shows their gap toothed inbred fans on television.
Answer:-Give you a banjo and your picture looks more inbred than any Kentucky fan I've seen. Just saying. - Question:-Can anyone tell me a little bit of history about UK Basketball New Coach?

Answer:-Didn't realise they played much basketball in England. - Question:-Who are the UK basketball players?
I understand the UK got a new coach (yay) I live in KY and my whole family is into UK basketball but when I ask them to tell me the names of all the players they go in to the names, hometowns, stats, and things I don't really care about. Could someone give me a list of the players and their numbers? like:
1. First Name Last Name
2. First Name Last Name
Haha I'm not that smart so I can't figure out how to make this question resolved so... thank you Gina!!! that was exactly what i needed!

Go Big Blue!!! - Question:-How much are UK basketball season tickets? ?

Answer:- - Question:-Who is the UK basketball player that always sits at the end of the bench next to Enes in a blue warmup?
I can't figure it out :/
It is not Dwayne Wade he plays in the NBA.
Answer:-he is called dwayne wade and he is american - Question:-Do you watch UK basketball? If so who is your favorite player?
I am a UK fan all the way baby! my favorite player is Jodie Meeks, and has been ever since he was a freshman at UK. Patterson is good down low. UK is doing pretty good this year, but could have been better if Jasper hadn't left.
Answer:-I am a huge UK fan, I love to watch them. UK basketball is my life. I watch every game and my whole Christmas was practically all UK stuff. My favorite players are Jodie Meeks and Patrick Patterson. They are both very talented players. Jodie has an all around game, and Patrick like you said is good down low and a huge inside presence. I miss Derrick Jasper. But, I think DeAndre Liggins is just like him. Do you remember Alex Legion who was supposed to be good and transferred from UK to Illinois in the middle of last season? Perry Stevenson is the unsung hero who gets over looked by many. Perry's a good ball player. I just can't wait for Darius Miller and DeAndre Liggins to get more experience. They are the future of UK basketball. Gillispie has some good recruits coming in next year named Daniel Orton, Jon Hood, and GJ Vilarino. I hope Meeks and Patterson come back next year instead of going to the NBA. I Bleed Blue!!!!!
Keep up faith in our Cats, if tey escape this week with out a loss which they should since they're playing Auburn and Alabama, and UK continues to improve, they'll be ranked for sure! Good Luck and Enjoy the Cats this season! - Question:-Is UK basketball and Yankees baseball 2 greatest traditions in all of sports?
Answer:-No definitely not. The celtics and lakers, have had much bigger dynasties. Also in college basketball, for this decade it would be duke and UNC.

college basketball
- Question:-College basketball?
I just want to play college basketball and have no intention of going pro, so i cant afford to miss classes of the course i have taken.
SUPPOSE i get selected by one of the colleges to play for them, then would i be missing classes? if yes then how many? will i be able to catch up on missed classes?
Answer:-I'm not intimately familiar with this, as I have never played college basketball.
However, I believe that the time/travel/practice requirement will vary from university to university.
For example, at a top-flight college basketball program, there may be more practice requirements and also more travel requirements for tourneys and so forth.
Also, certain school may place more of a priority on academics for their athletes than other schools. Different school will have different policies on tutoring and missed classes. But all schools are going to recognize that some student athletes may miss class from time to time due to athletic commitments. The univeristy recognizes this, they know what an asset athletics can be to a school, and they will be happy to accomodate you. The accomodation can take the form of tutors, giving you your assignments before-hand, or make up exams/classes. Just be sure to address any missed classes/assignments with the professor. Don't just ignore the class and hope for the best.
All in all, (assuming you are hard-working and relatively intelligent), you should have no problem playing basketball and thriving academically. Just make sure to discuss this potential issue with the head coach and school administrators before committing to the school. Find out about their policies on student athletes, and do not be afraid to ask questions. Then be prepared to work hard, take classes you enjoy, and you will do great.
Good luck. - Question:-college basketball?
i just wanted to know how to get into college basketball. i live in australia and i dont know alot about it. but do u need like a scholarship?...do u need to go 2 high school in america to get chosen beforehand? please give me as much information as u can. cheers.
Answer:-Well there are several different levels of college ball. You do not have to go to high school in the US for any of them. The one that is the highest level is NCAA D-1.
To play D1 you really need to be recruited because its the toughest to break into. If you have D1 talent and a coach or scout for a school sees you play enough you may be offered a scholarship to play for a program or a coach may offer an opportunity to walk-on and be a part of the team as a non-scholarship player. If you improve your game enough you may be able to get a scholarship a season or two after your freshman year. Here the only requirement for you would be that you can qualify academically for the school you choose.
The next one I'll talk about is NJCAA. This is the junior colleges or 2 year schools. I figured I'd talk about this one next because I know of several australians that played baseball and basketball at the NJCAA school I went to. The overall talent level isn't as high at the NJCAA especially at the D-II and D-III levels but the benefits of going this route are that the academics standards are lower.(Many US players who fail to meet the academic standards out of HS go to JC to improve their grades) and also one huge benefit about going to a JC is you can still receive an scholarship to play basketball at this level. And after your two years if you've played well enough an NCAA team may offer you a scholarship to play for them.
The next level is NCAA D-II and then NCAA D-III. These are also 4year schools like NCAA D-1 however the talent level is significantly lower and there is very little media exposure. The positives are at a D-II you can still receive a scholarship for playing basketball(However D-III does not offer athletic scholarships but there are grants available and you may qualify for an academic scholarship) and alot of these schools are very good schools to get your college degree from. So if getting a good degree is priority for you then there is alot of great D-II and D-III schools to chooe from.
The next level is NAIA. These are usually really small schools and most of them have a religious affiliation. However there are 4yr schools and they can offer atheltic scholarships. NAIA is a completely different organization from the NCAA. And again there is very little media exposure at this level but here again you can play 4 years of basketball and get a degree.
Ways for you to get noticed by coaches would be to play in as many big tournaments as possible(preferably international tournaments) However don't worry if you're not quite good enough to make an international team. The next step would be to make a recruiting packet to send out to coaches of schools you'd be interested in attending. The packet should include a bio, your stats, team info and a video of your performance in games.
Whether your goal is to play in the NBA or another international pro league, to coach, or just for the experience college ball has alot to offer. If you need any more info let me know. - Question:-College Basketball?
I was thinking today. I havent ever played highschool basketball. I am sure I could have made the team but I just didnt have time for the practices and stuff like that. When I go to college, is there anyway I could play basketball there without having played HighSchool?
Answer:-You can play Intramural. - Question:-COLLEGE BASKETBALL...?
In college basketball if a player is fould when in the act of shooting, is the shooting foul for 2 free throws no matter how many team fouls have occured?
Answer:-The team fouls don't matter, but the shooter doesn't always get two freethrows because:
If the bucket is made, the player only gets 1 freethrow (referred to as an "and 1").
If the bucket is not made, they get 2 freethrows.
If they were attempting a 3, the shooter would get 3 freethrows.
If the 3 point shooter makes the shot, the shooter gets 1 freethrow for a rare 4 point play. - Question:-How often does the college basketball be in practice and practice?
When the basketball players arrive the first day of college, but they have to go to the practice on the same day. The college basketball players must be there everyday until the time of games and after the season is over.
Answer:-What? They probably do conditioning dureing the summer and once school starts...they don't start practicing until Oct and play starting Nov...they don't practice after the season is over. - Question:-What is the difference between college basketball and pro basketball?
My class is doing a research paper and my groups topic is basketball. My topic as a group member is what is the difference between college basketball and pro basketball. I need a very detailed answer if possible if not just give me what you got and the sources would be great also. Please and Thank You!
Answer:-College:
Three point line is at about 20.1 feet
The average height of players is lower than that of the NBA
Players don't get paid, just get scholarships to play for a school
They have tournaments which are single elimination to determine who is the best in the country
The NCAA tournament is widely considered the greatest part of the sports calendar because of the parody and intensity displayed in each game.
Pro Basketball:
Players make money for playing basketball
the level of skill is much higher than in college
players tend to be taller in the NBA.
3 point line in the NBA is at about 23 feet.
Playoffs are normally 7 games, winner winning atleast 4 out of 7 games for 4 rounds until a champion is crowned.
NBA season has 82 games + playoffs compared to colege which has about 30 regular season games + the championship torunaments. - Question:-How do college basketball players get to such good schools?
First of all half of the NBA players that went to these highly known educated schools aren't really well educated, you can tell by their grammar, some of their immaturity, and some of their ghettoness I guess you can say. I know sure as hell some of these players did not get a 4.0 GPA or something, some players did and didn't I know that much.
How do these college basketball players get into these good schools and how are they not overwhelmed by the homework and so on? Do they even have classes? Do they pay someone else to do their stuff for them?
Answer:-because when your really good at basketball you can get scholarships.... the best schools want the best players so the great players get to go to great colleges no matter the grades, a 2.5 is like all you have to have anyway - Question:-How long does college basketball coaches take to response to recruiting?
Last week on Thursday I send out one of my basketball drills & skills dvd video to The Men's Head Basketball Coach of Miracosta College and now is been seven days ago I still haven't heard from the coach yet. Can anyone tell me long does college basketball coaches take to response to recruiter?...Thanks
Answer:-Um, just a guess...he didn't like what he saw so he never responded.
I'm pretty sure he'd recruit you by looking at HS games ect. Not by a video of drills/skills. - Question:-Who is the best college basketball team to watch?
I've become fed up with the NBA. So people suggested that I watch college basketball. Any suggestions of some good {winning} teams?
Answer:-North Carolina #1, Davidson, Texas, Michigan State, Michigan, Oklahoma, and UCLA are some of the top teams. I only put Michigan in there because they beat Duke twice. - Question:-Do u need to play college basketball to declare for the nba draft?
Ok so i am in college, but i dont play for my college's basketball team nor did I try out to be because of an injury. Do u need to play college basketball to declare for the nba draft?
Answer:-Not technically. There are a quite a few players in the NBA who did not even go to college. The NBA has tryouts sometimes you just have to know where they are. If you plan on trying out, good luck!
