Trap game affect!

There are now former NFL running backs and quarterbacks in heaven checking over their shoulder. "Where is Butkus?"

That guy is an idiot. I am a good friend with their former coach from the late 90s early 2000s - Dick Maloney. The program is alive and kicking and having winning records. At one time, the team was mostly Chicago area kids but now there is more national recruiting. As a side note, the UofC...

Why take the Auburn job? Sign for a boatload of money and then get a $15 million buyout. Coach for a year or so and then be set for life.
