Charles Barkley On Tipping, Title Game, and Texting (Small Junk)

Friday, December 17th, 2010

I don't need to tell you that Charles Barkley is one of the great interviews in all of the sports world. I really don't. But having written here at Sports Radio Interviews for a few years now, I've encountered different levels of Barkley's greatness on the air. Sometimes he's more ...

Andrew Luck Believes Cam Newton Deserves the Attention

Friday, December 10th, 2010

That headline probably doesn't seem very earth-shattering. Of course Andrew Luck, the quarterback of Stanford, is going to play it cool and say Auburn quarterback Cam Newton deserves the attention that he's getting. But, given the fact that Luck keeps it short and sweet, perhaps that's actually what he truly ...

BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock: “we need to do everything we can to preserve the importance of this regular season. It really is a treasure

Friday, November 12th, 2010

The calendar has turned to November, meaning there's not that much more time for the chaos in college football to sort itself out. I personally don't follow the ins and outs of NCAAFB, but I pay close enough attention to know that pandemonium could be on the horizon. Will Boise ...

Chip Kelly on Boise State: “Because Someone Beat Somebody a Year Ago Doesn’t Mean Anything”

Thursday, October 21st, 2010

The Oregon Ducks are first in every one of the human polls. They're second in the first Bowl Championship Series standings this year. On all fronts, the Ducks are ahead of Boise State. Many people want to cry foul over that fact. They love to argue that the Broncos beat the ...

NCAA Ruling on Jeremiah Masoli Puzzles Coach Houston Nutt

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010

Houston Nutt seems to have a pretty good argument. The Ole Miss coach got a bit of a shock this week when the NCAA ruled that Jeremiah Masoli, a quarterback transfer from Oregon, won't be eligible to be the Rebels' signal-caller this year. Masoli intended to transfer and play using a ...

Chip Kelly and the Ducks Look To Defend Their Pac-10 Conference Championship

After Tumultuous Offseason, LaMichael James Looks Toward Future

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

It's been quite the year for LaMichael James. As he approached camp a year ago, the Oregon running back wasn't expected to have any sort of impact in the Pac 10. Instead, after LaGarrette Blount's "Punch Heard 'Round the World," James took center stage and turned out to be one ...
