LATEST STORIES FROM GATE 21
A Changing of the Guard…
As I mentioned the other day, any of you that have regularly read Gate 21 have probably notice the deafening sound of the silence here for the past month or so. That silence was prelude to this post. There is no better way to say it than to quote the words of the legendary John [...]

HLL: “No Muschamp news for now” Bevo Beat
According to the folks in Texas, Will Muschamp isn’t going anywhere:
No Muschamp news for now.
The rumors that defensive coordinator and Texas coach-in-waiting Will Muschamp is heading to Tennessee are in full force.
But people around the Longhorn athletic department aren’t worried.
One member of the Longhorns’ athletic staff said that “Muschamp was in the office yesterday and [...]

Muschamp holding press conference tomorrow, 10 CST
That’s right. The diplomatic pouch has arrived and it’s revealed that Tennessee’s number one target, Texas Defensive Coordinator Will Muschamp, is announcing something tomorrow.
Muschamp topped my wish list last year, but it didn’t pan out. In my opinion, I think Muschamp took the National Championship game personally. What better way to pay Saban back than [...]

Not sure what to say yet…
Yesterday evening as I was reading about Pete Carroll’s departure from USC, I thought to myself, “gee, I hope they don’t come after Kiffin.” I dismissed this, however, due to the fact that it just didn’t make sense to me that something like that would happen.
Well, apparently it made sense to USC…
Like me, ESPN’s Pat [...]

HLL: NY Times Reports NCAA Investigating “Vol Hostesses”

Ok. So by now you’ve already experienced your mini-meltdown over the coaching changes. If you’re anything like me, you probably went thermo-nuclear when you found out that not only is the NCAA “probing” (ha, I know) the situation with our hostesses, but that they’re contacting our recruits. Fret not. The rumor mill has produced the [...]
