It’s Friday evening right before the season officially begins in college football but CFTalk wanted to catch everybody up on one last offseason storyline that apparently won’t go away. No we’re not talking about ‘WakeyLeaks,’ something Nick Saban said, the latest incendiary comment from Josh Rosen or even something that will impact what is about to happen on Saturday’s this fall.
Instead we must call attention to the rematch between Baylor associate athletic director Sean Padden and that of the Bears’ now-infamous tackling dummy. In case you missed it earlier this month, the two squared off in a 40 yard race that saw Padden cross the finish line first... but the tackling dummy get the last laugh.
