News and Notes Around the SEC

Knoxtown: The "Lady" Vols have won their 8th national championship. ESPN is calling Candice Parker one of the greatest of all time, comparable to some legendary players that I've never heard of before.

Gainesville: WR/RB/Everything guy Percy Harvin has undergone career-ending heel surgery. I say career ending because heel surgery sounds pretty serious. If this guy is already having this much trouble, his career won't be as promising as it should be.

Bourbon Rouge: The Tigers' national championship squad made a trip to D.C. to be honored / party with President George W. Bush. And apparently, Prez was surprised that Les Miles forgot his hat. Ryan Perrilloux was allowed to make the trip, coming after Les Miles found any way possible to get him reinstated to the team starting after the spring game. Seems to me that LSU is willing to ignore murder to keep this guy on the field.

Tuscavegas: The guys at Roll Bama Roll have some good notes on spring ball. In other news, Coach Saban has hired some additions to his staff. Apparently there wasn't enough firepower on the field.

Cashville: The Vandy baseball team, who I expected to make waves nationally and contend for the SEC championship, is apparently having some problems.

The interesting thing out of Auburn has been the fact that nothing is being talked about. I'll look into that one...

Is it me, or are the Gators just wearing out their best players?

According to Tony Barnhart, ol' Percy will not only bounce back from this little medical procedure, but he'll be even more faster/quicker/uncatchable.

Rennie Curran will smite him like a Philistine.
