Riiiiiiiight. Two-a-days is The Real World's take on sports.

Its good to see that Chizik is using his connections down south though. Thanks Chris, by the way, whatever happened to Brent Blum?

I'd take Propst on as an assistant, the Chiz should look into that. From what I've seen on MTV (granted, it's subject of massive editing), his work merits a shot at the college game.

who cares about Bret Blum. That kid is on the fast track to be the next Dickie V or Ron Jaworski. Can't stand his voice or his writing

If you want to rip him....at least spell his name right.

If you want to hire a tremendous HS coach that has a HS program that both wins and produces a significant number of college players...that man is J.T. Curtis. He coaches John Curtis Christian in River Ridge, LA. They win the state championship nearly every year and typically produce double digit DI prospects (Joe McKnight was the top guy this year) every year. By the way, John Curtis kicked Hoover High's *** this past season!!

I totally DISagree. Every now and then, he would write articles in the Iowa State Daily and they were always the funniest articles in it. I can understand how you wouldnt like him if you want your articles to be nothing but stats and serious sports talk.

Anyone can write reports on what is going on with the team. Brent is actually creative and makes his articles entertaining.

I'm guessing you just don't get some of the humor in the artcles but just because you don't like his writing doesn't mean you have to bash him.

I'll give you that Blum was a decent writer in the daily, but that isn't saying much. Most people on that staff I wouldn't want around reporting my bowel movements, let alone a real story. The Daily is the best toilet paper on campus, it's just too bad they don't have their stacks in the restroom instead of that *** sand-paper.

Let me say that brent's articles were the only one's I looked farward to reading for more than just the information.

I agree; the rest of the daily certainly isn't anything to write home about.

I care about him. He's a true Cyclone fan, a good writer that is both insightful and funny and a great person that I've run across a few times through work and classes.

I really don't read the Daily much and when I pick up a copy, I jump around and pick and choose articles. And as spotty as my reading habits are, Brent's columns always managed to be on that short list I read.

He's a good talent and has a bright future; I feel he does a great job at what he does.
