Bubba Gump?

Your pal, Z

You are correct sir.

Classic Macgruber.

I agree. Making fun of the Trophy is ridiculous. Its not like we named it the Karl Benson Award for Excellence or something...

This sort of thing makes me care less about whatever it is they are going off on.

I do as I please. I have yet to shut up because someone tells me to do so.

His name is Robert Paulson.

The time frame reminded me of ESPN's relationship with the Sun Belt Conference in the early years.

from Georgia State's release about returning to the Sun Belt...

http://www.georgiastatesports.com/ViewAr...=208504360

"...The innovative Sun Belt created one of the first in-house regional television networks to show a conference game of the week starting in January of 1978. In 1979, the Sun Belt became another leader when it was the first conference to sign a long-term agreement with the then-new ESPN cable network that launched in September of 1979..."

I think the deal was a win-win. ESPN was in dire need of content at the time. The deal helped publicize the three year old Sun Belt Conference also. Of course, it didn't hurt that the Sun Belt had some VERY GOOD basketball teams in those years.

Concerning Vic Bubas, I appreciate the clarification. I had not researched the cup and mistakenly thought it was named for a corporate sponsor. Mr. Bubas had a great career as a player, as head coach at Duke, and then as commissioner of the Sun Belt.

Bubba Watson?

Back in the 80's, Georgia State's AD was Dr. Rankin Cooter. Honestly.

Rankin Cooter. That's still tough to say without cracking a smile.

Perhaps the most redneck-centric conference in the country should have thought twice before naming their all-sports championship.......just sayin'.

Would apply if it was the BUBBA'S cup which it isnt.

But the need for a thread about this is self explanatory.
