Around SBN: Chan Sung Jung Wins Thriller Over Dustin Poirier

. . . it must be true.

Rumors have been swirling all morning, as attested to by Paul Westerdawg, but---no offense to ESPN, Rivals, or the blogosphere---I wasn't buying it until I heard it from a white English bulldog in a red sweater.

Obviously, no one ever hopes for a player to be lost to injury, especially one of your own, and swapping starting quarterbacks two days before a big game is never a good thing. Nevertheless, if the guy lining up under center can't get the job done---whether due to the flu, a lingering injury, or a simple inability to compete at the loftiest level---change can be a good thing.

We wish Joe Cox a speedy and complete recovery, but, if Saturday night signals the start of the Logan Gray era, well, there's a reason why one of my uncle's coaching maxims was, "Don't lose with seniors." If it's going to be 2006 all over again, I'd rather start the next guy's learning curve sooner rather than later.

Go 'Dawgs!

What does this mean?

Have they given up on Joe already? Is Logan that far along? What about the freshmen?

Thanks for the shout out to Daddy. We missed ya at the reunion, hope to see ya soon. Hope all are well with all of y’all. Went up to Hampton for the race Sunday night – my youngest son’s first NASCAR event. Lots of fun.

BTW, I’m coaching some girls softball and will be in Ashburn next week. I think your folks are gonna come to the game if they can. Keep an eye peeled on Wilcox and our fine junior quarterback, Nick Marshall.

It's a gas, gas, gas.

There's no way to tell.

In 1861 after numerous complaints and obvious management issues, Abraham Lincoln sent a terse note to embattled Secretary of War Simon Cameron that suggested a change of position to emissary to Russia. He then re-thought the impulsive note, told Cameron he retracted it, and proposed that Cameron resign and accept a position elsewhere in the administration (it still had to do with Russia).

Who knows? They may have decided on a policy of allowing a dedicated DGD to get the first shot no matter what, and see if it works out, and if it doesn’t, well, a lingering issue, or the flu, or who knows what may not allow things to work out in the next start for Mr. Pipp.

But he could just be hurt, too, though I really hope not, for Cox and for the chances in the upcoming game.
