TDF - Spanning the globe, to bring you the constant variety of Gamecock sports ...
Gamecock Football
Post & Courier: Big-time football gets big upgrade. Video board! Video board! Video board! (UPDATE - link fixed!)
ESPN: Chris Low says the Head Ball Coach is giddy about the future.
Anderson Independent-Mail: Brad Senkiw writes that Ex-USC quarterback Stephen Garcia pleads for another chance.

LOHD: Gamecocks Football Recruiting Video: Christian Hackenberg Offered. Pursuing an elite quarterback for 2013.
Bleacher Report: Alex Roberts wants to know if South Carolina has Too Much Offensive Weaponry in 2012? He is joking, isn't he? Also, Flounder weighs in on the state of USC football recruiting in advance of next week's National Signing Day - Top Targets, Positional Needs and Prediction. I think he's too optimistic we'll get another commitment for 2012, but I would love to be proven wrong. Slides, slides, everywhere a slide.
Gamecock Basketball
Fox Sports South: Sloppy play leave Gamecocks winless in SEC. Darrin Horn: "We've just got to keep working to get better. No one wants to hear we're young, but it's true. The only way to change that is game action." Actually, the best way to change that would be not to run off gifted sophomores; now in his fourth season, Coach Horn is responsible for the roster and his recruits - if a kid busts, or is a bad fit for the system, it reflects as much on Horn as the player. We're "young" in large part because of personnel decisions that Horn has made since he arrived in Columbia.
SportsTalk: Darrin Horn on the Monday SEC teleconference (AUDIO). Carolina hosts Alabama at the Colonial Life Arena tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m.
Mr SEC: John Pennington thinks Six SEC Teams Have A Shot At The NCAA Tourney. Pssst - we ain't one of them. John does run down each team's RPI and strength-of-schedule ranks; ours are dismal.
For some strange reason I like our chances tomorrow. Darrin Horn is good for one otherwise inexplicable surprise victory a season, and it's not like the Tide are going to have a lot of respect for us. Plus, it's $1 hot dog night at the CLA, folks! (Ed. - That should really pack 'em in!). I kid! It looks like tomorrow will be extra family friendly - Sixth Annual Spurs & Saddles Set for Wednesday at the CLA - you can meet the equestrian team and take pics with the riders and horses.

The fact that Auburn and LSU
both played a total of 10 games against opponents with winning records is scary. Auburn and Tennessee had some brutal schedules. Both played LSU, Bama, UGA, USC and Arkansas. I believe UT played Arky at least. Yikes. That’s like our 2010, when we had Bama, Auburn, Arkansas, and then Auburn again.

By the way. I now hate Auburn.
Not because the fans were rude or hateful. They haven’t done anything to offend me. I just hate them because we have lost to them in Football and Basketball like it’s our full-time job.

Heh. Doesn't mean I don't resent our recent streak of poor luck against them.

Love that the ole ball coach is excited. Him coming to Carolina is the best thing that ever happened to our Carolina football lives, period. And for once, I concur with his optimism. I hope he stays until he’s 76 and continues to take us in the direction of being a national powerhouse. Who woulda thunk?
Braves.
Falcons.
Gamecocks.
