Well, tonight's shutout of South Carolina is certainly appropriate. Yesterday, Coach Erk Russell passed away at 80 years old. He was the 17 year defensive coordinator at Georgia under Coach Dooley, and was the architect of the 'Junkyard Dawg' defense. He later went on to build Georgia Southern's football program from scratch, winning 3 national championships.

There ain't nothing like being a Bulldawg on a Saturday night!

That was a nice win for all the fans and family.

as for your sig. line, are you wanting to change your avatar???:idontno: Be warned that if you get rid of your animated one you can not use a new animated one. This happened since the server upgrade. Hence, no dancing chicken :( So think twice before losing pee boy...

IBD- thanks for the heads up on animated avis. I'm not really wanting to change it, the sig line is my subtle way of saying that we're expecting another baby boy in December! Pee boy is my pride and joy.

Wow! Thanks for the news on Erk. I was attending GSU when Erk began the football program. What fun we had :clap_1: It was very new, small and exciting. I can remember the local farmers filling his pantry and freezer with all the wonderful produce, beef, pork..whatever the man desired. He was and will always be a local hero!!
