If you live in Chicago like I do, then you’ll notice that the local television stations have all abandoned their group seppuku sessions over the Bears in order to come to the aid of America’s Sweetheart, Ron Zook. All Ron wants is for someone to just get that damned beating sound under the floorboards to shut up! His integrity “has never been questioned before,” dammit!***
The Roundup:

• Stewie of SI.com “fame,” as in, “Hey, see that guy over there? I think I hate him,” “fame,” guesses that Zook is doing so well in recruiting because he’s a “player’s coach.” Yeah. So was Bob Davie.
• Zook is absolutely pissed about allegations that he alleges are being made about his alleged football program. Allegedly. Anyone notice that nobody not named John El Smith has actually publicly alleged anything? Why so jumpy, Ron?
• EDSBS got their hands on an early release of an open letter to Florida fans from one of their new recruits. It’s surprisingly well written and cogent.
• SMQ went and analyzed the crap out of something. Again. This man clearly doesn’t have children. We don’t either, but if we did, we’d never be able to much this much effort into something. Anything, really.
• BGS just can’t shake the words of the Alanis Morrisette classic: “You Oughta Know.” Which is ironic after they posted this. I guess they just like Alanis. Good for them.
• HRB is going thru the roster of new ND recruits with probably the most accurate recruit rating system I’ve ever seen. I give it 7 Spanglers and a falafel.
