They will need all the help they can get. Wouldn't surprise me that they will try to get Smith back too,lol.
What if this was Kentucky trying to pull this crap? I bet it would cause the Newspaper industry to explode. Other schools get to do things we can't even think about.

That's our own fault. When you have a fan base as passionate and widespread etc. as ours the newspapers and TV people know they can sell based on controversy. UK fans care about the daily goings on of their program, they want all the good juicy recruiting news, Cal's activities, players activities, and so on. But as soon as something bad comes out they act like we're some sort of victim. We get all kinds of coverage from everyone when it's positive, but as soon as it turns negative they act like we don't deserve the treatment we get. If people want attention for being the most passionate and obsessive fan base and what the daily information we get from various sources (unlike any other school) they need to realize that the negative is going to go with that too. It's like people expect them to just give everything good and ignore anything bad that comes up. I'm sick of people insinuating media bias and complaining that if it was us it'd be the MAIN story. Yeah it would, but that's only because our fan base works so hard to draw attention to our program ALL the time.
