ESPN, Suh, and a bus

[mitch7]

I was partly listening to ESPN and partly concentrating on my calc. Mark May talked about Suh for heisman and then they said something about a bus coming to Lincoln. Does anyone know if this is the gameday bus or something different?

i thought this was a setup to a joke. how disappointing.

It would make a good setup, but no sorry.

My wife got that impression also. I did not hear it.

 

I was just amazed that Mark said that Suh should be the hypsman. He would get his in the draft though.

 

He said himself and the Pony could share the plane fare.

 

Pretty positive from Mark. But I have always said he is just telling it like it is.

"Drive to the National Championship" bus? I thought that was the "Nick Saban's Personal ESPN RV" bus....

I did hear May and James say they would split the cost of the ticket for Suh to go the New York after they said that he would not be invited to go like he should be.

In the morning sportscenter Mel Kiper had Suh as his #1 choice for the Heisman right now

[TRIPP]

if he isnt invited, we should all pitch in and pay for his ticket...or am i being a crazy husker fan right now?

[KingBlank]

This would be illegal for them to do, it would be considered a gift, and violate ncaa rules. He just has to play well on the last national games to get invited.

If he is not invited, doubt that he would want to waste his time in NY....it is all about politics anyway.

heisman is not even a big deal unless a guy from your school is getting it, otherwise no one cares. but when it's your guy, it's a huge honor.

Agreed.

 

At the very least I was expecting to read an article on how Suh picked up and threw a bus through ESPN headquarters...

Yes, illegal if he takes the gift himself. If they donate to the University and put a "Earmark Wink" on the gift then all is OK because the University would pay for the trip.

yes, it's the Drive to the National Championship bus that'll be here tomorrow. it was at the Central Mich/Ball st. game and they mentioned it was heading to Lincoln for the weekend. not sure why..
