Weslye Saunders is the latest player the NCAA has been investigating for possible relations with a sports agent. The NCAA visited the South Carolina tight end last week and it is believed the investigation is linked with the NCAA’s probe of UNC football players and their alleged dealings with agents. The number one rated tight end for the 2011 NFL Draft is from Durham, North Carolina and is friends with Marvin Austin and other UNC players. Saunders, Steve Spurrier and USC media relations director are all being tight lipped so it seems we will have to wait for the investigation to end before we found out if either football program will receive infractions.
Nelly Going Back to School
November 17, 2009 by
A little birdie has told me that a fraternity from the University of South Carolina has booked the rapper Nelly to perform at a party following the Clemson-South Carolina football game next weekend. I’m not trying to call Nelly out, but it seems he has fallen pretty hard from his performance at the Super Bowl a few years ago if he is willing to take on a frat party in Columbia, South Carolina. Now I know it’s a big rivalry and all, but it isn’t the biggest live event in the world now is it? Anyone in agreement with me that all he will do is lip synch a couple of songs and then hit the road?
30 hours and counting….

43 years ago Steve Spurrier was the quarterback for the Florida Gators when they came to Raleigh to play the Wolfpack in the second game every played in Carter Finley Stadium. The Wolfpack at one point led the #8 Gators 10-3 in the second half, but ended up losing 17-10. Spurrier leads his Gamecocks back into Carter Finley Stadium tomorrow night to play NC State in front of a nationally televised audience on ESPN to kick of the college football season. Spurrier, Erin Andrews and college football is about all you can ask for, right?
