RADAR Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 It sounds like Gameday will use the Lawerence Phillips story of murder in prison to lead into talking about Nebraska-Miami. Very nice of them. Quote Link to comment

Kernal Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 It sounds like Gameday will use the Lawerence Phillips story of murder in prison to lead into talking about Nebraska-Miami. Very nice of them. According to this George Darlington interview on Sharpe and Benning, Darlington was interviewed extensively for the piece, as was Damon Benning and Clinton Childs. They had high hopes that it wasn't going to caricature Phillips. Quote Link to comment

Redux Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 It was a lot better than I thought it would be. Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I was literally shocked how fair the piece was. Of the thousands of words written over the last 20 years combining the words LP and Nebraska, this was the first I can remember when they actually showed some semblance of balance. Good for ESPN.

ScottyIce Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Who does Miami play today? I couldn't tell by watching College Gameday until the Lawrence Phillips story came on... Quote Link to comment
RedRex Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Actually surprised , was waiting for the blatant hit piece. Nice to finally see the LP story being put out not as an indictment of NU or TO, but as a tragedy for a young man who because of circumstances never learned to recognize the value of the opportunities he was given. 1 Quote Link to comment
Kernal Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Who does Miami play today? I couldn't tell by watching College Gameday until the Lawrence Phillips story came on... I watch the BTN pregame show, therefore I know Miami is playing Nebraska! Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Good job Eric Church. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Had a feeling Eric Church would be the one man wolf pack. Quote Link to comment
Canesfan01 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Who is at the game right now? How is the tailgating scene? Quote Link to comment
