Jimbo Fisher Does Not Like Jameis Winston Questions, Then He Answers Them Anyway...

((HT: al.com, Crenshaw/Lost Letterman))

This is what the HQ calls an interview that is cut short...


The All-In head coach was supposed to speak to Birmingham's Monday Morning Quarterback Club.

The HQ has no idea why Fisher would think that questions would be about other things besides what is in and around his program that have happened recently.

But Fisher got hot under the collar and prematurely ejected...

Later that same morning, he went under another round of questions and admitted that "if the facts change" he will consider discplining his quarterback...

Props to Solomon Crenshaw for the response. Obviously, someone in garnet and gold got to Fisher and explained how the pee-ahr of the walk-out wouldn't go over well if that was the last image stuck in Birmingham media.

Has Grambling Hit Rock Bottom...??? No--UPDATED

((HT: KTBS-TV Shreveport))

The once proud organization is 0-7 this year and haven't won a game since the 2011 SWAC title game...

They lost 48-0 to Alcorn last week and, now, according to the Shreveport Times, players have walked out of an administrative meeting on Tuesday and skipping a team practice this afternoon.

Here's FOSG Paul Crane...
KTBS.com - Shreveport, LA News, Weather and Sports

From the Matt Vines article:

The source said the teams’ frustrations have been boiling over a period time. Those frustrations include what’s considered as general disrespect from administration, not receiving all meals on road trips, taking a bus to distant locations like Kansas City and Indianapolis and the poor state of facilities like the weight room.

Players attended morning weight training until the session abruptly ended after one player was kicked out after voicing his opinion in Tuesday’s meeting. All players left the weight training session.


Vines' source called the walk-out a mutiny...

Updated Thursday afternoon: The Shreveport Times reports interim coach George Ragsdale has been let go and Defensive coordinator Dennis Winston would finish out the season as coach. For now. Also, the team did not practice on Thursday, but intends to play Saturday's game vs. Jackson State.

Mourinho Doesn't Like Questions About Those Not Playing...

((HT: Sky Sports))

Chelsea is hip deep in the Champions League and the Premier League and the Cap One Cup...
All at the same time... that's how it is over in Europe when it comes to soccer...

Multi-tasking...

So, over the last few weeks, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been grilled over not playing Juan Mata. And once Mata played, he did well- saying all the right things all the way about making sure he found a way into the starting XI.

Now, that Mata is playing and Kevin De Bruyne isn't...
Mourinho is getting the same line of questioning and still doesn't like it...


So much for being ready for Steaua Bucharest...
