Long-time newspaper guy, now teaching journalism at Iowa State University. Also, writing coach for the Iowa State Daily.

I’m sure the Miami coaches and players wanted him in there. If Cam Ward cared about his team he would have played the second half.

I think evaluating any team or player in these bowl games is a waste of time.

It’s a huge problem, although I’d argue if you promote gambling you probably aren’t a journalist.
