Florida Is Using Flat Screen TVs And Xboxes For Football Recruiting

All, College Football Ty Duffy December 17th. 2012, 12:31pm

Joker Phillips, now an assistant at Florida, tweeted a picture of the Gators’ locker room set up for visiting recruits on Saturday. The Gators are using flat-screen TVs and Xboxes as part of their sales pitch, not to mention that boss black leather garment bag. Florida goes to bowl games, you guys.

I have no idea either. Seems like there are three options:
1) Florida is giving recruits TVs and Xboxes. This seems unlikely.
2) Florida lets recruits play Xboxes and watch TV when they visit. This seems extremely likely and also not at all controversial.
3) Florida lets recruits look at TVs and Xboxes with the implication being that in 9 months they will get to play in a bowl game in which they are rewarded with a TV or Xbox. This seems…strange.
No matter what though I don’t understand the post.

Duffy wanted to do a CFB post and didn’t wanna mention the 3 Michigan players suspended for their bowl game bludgeoning.

Oh, I get it. Real cute! [to the others] Whatever we think of– if we think of J. Edgar Hoover, J. Edgar Hoover will appear and destroy us, okay? So empty your heads, don’t think of anything. We’ve only got one shot at this.

Not comparing dudes living in Florida banging co-eds to coal miners, but economically it’s the same system.

It’s closed to the public because there is a vat of $100 bills Phil Knight has a crony replenish weekly

Weekly based on hourly minimum wage like all labour forces.

I like how you have a “Pay The Players” post quickly followed up with a post proving that these dudes get free shit all the time.

“good call, lets go burn atlanta.”
It would be a capital idea to restage the burning of Atlanta every year to commemorate Sherman’s March.

there’s one good post per Monday. And it’s Post Game Handshakes.
You need to be putting it up Monday mornings. Then you can post whatever dumb shit you want afterward, because all the people who bitch about how crummy your content is will be busy talking about football. Which is what they want to be doing.
So it’s a win-win-win-win.

The thousands of dollars of per diem and free meals given out every day would like a word.
/probably still has left over per diem in the savings account
