Is Charlie Weis Right? A Superficial Look at the Fulmer Cup Print E-mail
Written by JEH45   
Friday, 16 May 2008
It must be the off season. Instead of looking forward to this Saturday's game we fans live in fear of what the arrest reports in the morning news will tell us. Lloyds recently posted an article re Jamar Hornsby of the Florida Gators. Great job Jamar-you go from being a relative unknown in the sporting world to being despised around the country. We read about USC's OJ Mayo being purchased for his year of college ball. This is basically the type of news we will live with throughout the summer.

Notre Dame's Charlie Weis spoke a few weeks back to a group of alumni and supporters in Gettysburg, Pa. Being a staunch disliker of Charlie I visited a couple of articles about the comments he made to the group as there was a hint of controversy surrounding those comments. Try as I might I couldn't find fault with what he said. What people tried to make a deal of was his quote, "I could get hoodlums and thugs and win tomorrow, I won't do it that way." I guess in this politically correct world some tried to portray Weis as being racist for such remarks. Hell, Charlie may be racist for all I know, but there isn't a dam thing wrong with what he said about the type of team he is trying to build.

All of the above has caused me to pause-is there a correlation between success on the field and the number of guns in the locker room? Will the Miami Hurricanes flop because of their coach imposed no gun rule?

With these burning questions on my mind, and since I feel like not doing shit at work, I have consulted and will share with you the famous (or imfamous) Fulmer Cup standings as compiled by our friends at EDSBS (Every Day should Be Saturday). Updated through May 12 we give you the 2008 Fulmer Cup standings by rank with # of points:
