Vandy offensive line coach Herb Hand is a great guy and a fun Twitter follow. You can follow him on Twitter here. But yesterday Hand came face to face with the newest Twitter foil, someone who chose to Tweet obscene insults about his family.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised at the continued devolution of Twitter discourse. After all, Facebook is rapidly losing its popularity with the idiots out there, and those idiots have to go somewhere on the Internet. Of late they've picked Twitter. And I'm now to the point where I think you should have to pass a basic intelligence test to be allowed to Tweet. 

Recently, the number of people on Twitter who go after wives and kids is downright scary. 

Hell, even the mob leaves families alone.

But some on Twitter have a moral code that would even make mob bosses blush.  

Yesterday @julianbucio, a University of Tennessee fan who happens to be one of 100 or so people I have ever blocked on Twitter because he sent me similar messages attacking my family, Tweeted this to Coach Hand, "dude I think your wife is f---ing someone while you coach your pathetic football team. #slut"

Lately you haven't had to hit Georgia's mascot with a car, they've been dropping like flies regardless.

Uga is the William Henry Harrison of mascots, uneasy lies the head with the studded collar.

Some blame inbreeding.

Others blame Mark Richt.

Somehow, inevitably, this will end up Mike Vick's fault.

In the meantime, golf clap.

If you've ever wondered what Uga would look like if he was hit by a car, you have your answer.

As a groomsman's cake no less.

This is the most impressive thing a Georgia Tech football fan has done since that one time in 1998 when one of them had sex in college.

Okay, it's early, but you know what you need to really get revved up for Friday?

The TCU students charged with orienting incoming freshmen sing "Call Me Maybe"

Now the only real debate left is whether this is worse than Georgia's awful "Party in the UGa" video from two years ago.

I'm going to link both videos below.

In the meantime, congrats Big 12, you got this to replace Texas A&M.

Well played.

Missouri HC Gary Pinkel appeared on our 3HL radio show today and was positively giddy about the impact of the SEC on his team’s recruiting.

Pinkel says that joining the league had brought very positive feedback on the recruiting trail. "Recruiting right now is going as well as it has ever gone for us," Pinkel said.

Pinkel said that some of the benefits could be related to the consistency of the Mizzou program over the past few years, but that the majority of it could be credited to joining the SEC. In particular, Pinkel said, "has been a tremendous plus for us, even more so than I could have imagined." He also felt strongly about the recruiting of the nations' number one recruit, Dorial Green-Beckham.

Pinkel confirmed that DGB has been on campus for the past two weeks and is already working out with the team. Pinkel stated, "Green-Beckham comes in with extremely high expectations, more expectations than any player that I have ever coached."

It's looking like 2013 will be the best recruiting year in SEC football history.

For a conference that has had the most players drafted for seven consecutive years, that truly says something.

Right now Tennessee has the 26th best recruiting class in the nation according to Rivals and 247 Sports.

That sounds impressive, right?

For the nation, maybe, but not for the SEC.

Tennessee is the 26th best class in the nation, but it's the 12th best recruiting class in the SEC.

That's right, 11 SEC schools are ranked in the top 25 in both 247 and Rivals team rankings.

Y'all are clearly a bunch of drunken, desperate louts.

As I scrolled through Twitter last night, several of you were lamenting the fact that there was no drinking game for the NBA Finals on ABC.

Then this morning I woke up and the first email I received was from Vincent L. writing: "I was watching the awesome game last night & pounding 2-4-1 Bud Lights. I thought to myself the only way it could get better is if I were playing along with thousands of Twitter friends to a Clay Travis-inspired drinking game. Sure any drinking game that doesn't involve Uncle Verne isn't nearly as fun, but the matchup between the Heat and Thunder will surely leave America inebriated with your guidance. You are the czar of czars so I challenge you to make it happen."

Your wish is my command.

Come Thursday night, we can all play along under the #nbadrink hashtag.

I'll need an official scorekeeper. Hopefully our #cbsdrink scorekeeper Ashley, who is now an Atlanta Falcons cheerleader -- congrats, will step up.

If not, the job demands to be filled.

Without further ado, here are 13 rules to get you and your friends drunk.

OKTC has told you the SEC Network is coming and we've told you that its payout could be stratospheric, approaching a billion dollars a year within the next 10-15 years.

But what we haven't talked about as much is how many football games the SEC Network could carry. The number of football games that a potential network would carry is the single most important detail that determines the value of the SEC Network. Why? Because fans have to demand the programming on the network. There have to be enough games that will keep local cable operators from leaving the SEC Network off its tier of channels.

What's the best way to ensure that SEC football fans flood cable companies insisting that the games be carried?

Lots of football games.

And the SEC Network will have a lot of football games.

Via multiple sources OKTC has learned the SEC Network is poised to carry between 40 and 50 football games beginning as soon as 2014.

That's at least three a week throughout football season.

I'm rooting for LeBron James.

There, I said it.

I'm part of a small minority of newfound LeBron fans, but my legions should be growing. 

That's because the LeBron hate is weak and played out.

Yes, LeBron chose a ridiculous and tone deaf way to pick his new team, but it's been nearly two years since that happened.

Two years!  

Every now and then I get an email asking why OKTC picks on Alabama and Kentucky fans so much.

The easy answer is, there's no intent to make fun of those schools any more than any other. I'm happy to make fun of Tennessee, Florida, Ohio State, Georgia, Auburn, Michigan, Texas A&M, really, you name a school and I'm happy to ridicule it. 

We're equal opportunity when it comes to ridicule here.

But Kentucky and Alabama have the largest amount of dumb fans in the country. 

And there's not even a close third.

Believe me, I wish there was. I'd be even richer.

And if you have more dumb fans than anyone else, then there's a greater chance of your dumb fans doing dumb things.

Which happens all the time.

This means that these two fan bases consistently outkick the coverage of every other fan base's stupidity.  

And today we've got a 99 yard punt combination from both fan bases.

Have you ever thought to yourself, you know what my Alabama fan van needs?

A family portrait!

No?

Then clearly you aren't a true Alabama football fan.

Meet the first ever awkward family fan photo on the side of a van.

Because it's not enough for mom and dad to take responsibility for the brown van with multiple Alabama decals on it. Nope, you have to bring the three kids into the mix too.

There is no perfect selection committee to pick the four best teams in colleget football.

This is important to acknowledge because with each passing day it seems more and more likely that there will be a committee formed to pick the four best teams for a college football playoff.

It's not an ideal solution but it is a politically feasible one. 

But who should serve on this committee? 

Media can't be involved, current college administrators, athletic directors, and commissioners are a biased mess, no matter who you choose there is going to be clear bias or the perception of bias.

The last thing college football wants to do is create their own Congress, a fractious and untrustworthy cabal of cronyism that makes us all throw up our hands in disgust.
