The Destin Log is the twice-weekly newspaper devoted to covering the crown jewel of the Emerald Coast.
The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that the Orlando Magic expect Florida head coach and Widows’ Peak advocate Billy Donovan as their new head coach.
What does this mean for the Gators? It’s a little late in the offseason to be looking for a new head coach. Any idea who the candidates could be? Will Jeremy Foley continue the widows’ peak trend in Gainesville and hire Eddie Munster or Ahman Green?
The Honolulu Advertiser is reporting that Hawaii’s senior quarterback (and Heisman longshot) is lobbing grenades at the Hawaii Athletic Department over Hawaii’s piss-poor facilities including a lack of soap in the team’s locker rooms.
“‘We spent all spring with no soap in our showers,’ Brennan said. ‘Half of the soap dispensers are broken. How hard is it for us to have soap in our lockers? Isn’t that something that should be a health issue?’
According to the article, a janitor has been trying to recycle empty shampoo bottles to use as soap dispensers.
Apparently, there is also a problem with parking near the team’s facilities. Brennan said that players pay between $3-$6 per day just to attend practices, workouts and practice sessions.
The tow truck driver has been in contact with players so much that coach June Jones is considering making him an honorary Rainbow Warrior. Brennan estimates that the 20 percent of the team has amassed parking fines of $200 - $1,000 in parking fines and tow truck fees. Brennan himself has accumulated $800 in fines in his two years at Hawaii.
