Carson's Bio

Watching College football on Saturdays > Anything else you could be doing.

I'm finishing my schooling at the University of North Florida as a business major. I would someday like to own and run a restaurant/bar in the Jacksonville area where I reside.

When I'm not in the books, or watching sports, I'm in at the beach, and am an avid surfer.

I'm the guy that you pretend to be when your watching re-runs of "Point Break" with your girl. Patrick, not Keanu...

My Favorite bands include: Kings of Leon, Modest Mouse, Citizen Cope.

Here are each conferences BCS bowl game records...the numbers speak for themselves....

SEC=12-5(.706%)--5 NC
Big 12=7-9(.437%)--2 NC
Big 10=8-11(.421%)--1 NC
Pac 10=9-4(.692%)--1 NC
ACC=2-9(.182%)--1 NC
Big East=6-5(.545%)--1 NC
Non BCS=3-1(.750%)--0 NC
Independent=0-3(.000%)--0 NC

Cheers!

  1. Hey Carson!

    Part 2 of my series on USC's 2009 preview! This time we take a look at the Wide Receivers...one of the best crops in the nation, no doubt.

    Hope you get a chance to check it out! Would greatly appreciate it!

    Thanks,

    Brian

  2. This is an excellent article, hope you can give it a read. Nic wrote about his Dad:

  3. Hey Carson!

    Are you ready for some football!? I am beginning to breakdown the 2009 preview for the USC Football, position by position. First up: Linebackers. Hope it's a good read and you have a chance to read it and leave feedback!

    Thanks!

  4. Hey Carson!

    Hopefully you're watching the NBA FInals! The Lakers dominated Game 1 of the Finals with ease!! Rebounding, backcourt, frountcourt play, and great defense all attributed to a great win! And don't forget about Kobe! I just finished my recap of the game.

    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/192876-nba-finals-lakers-fire-on-all-cylinders-in-game-1

    I hope you can take a look at it!

    -Brian

  5. I read that article about UF not being the champs. I think he is just delusional. UF played the hand they were dealt. What more can they do?

  6. My friend put me onto KOL, and they've really grown on me. I'm getting goosebumps right now just THINKING about that song "Fans." What a kick-@$$ tune.
    I got to see them play at the Florida Theatre in Jacksonville about a year ago. It was an awesome show, very intimate setting. Awesome show (maybe second only to a Roots concert I saw back in the 'Ville-Gainesville, that is).
    I forgot to ask you last night. What do you think of the White Stripes? Right now, that's my favorite band out there, and I recently got turned on to The Raconteurs, Jake White's side project. Awesome stuff man....

  7. What's up Carson? Just wrote a piece about Jacksonville's biggest draft blunders, and would love to get your take.
    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/187513-the-top-five-draft-what-ifs-for-the-jacksonville-jaguars
    BTW, I saw that you dig Kings of Leon. What do you think of their latest album? I've heard a lot of people complain that they've gone middle of the road and deserted their Southern Rock roots. Personally, I dig it...

  8. My thoughts on the three-team race in the SEC West in 2009:

  9. This is different for me because normally prefer opinion or humor/satire, but I was asked to take a look at it, so I did.

    I'd appreciate any feedback on the analysis side you may have for future such articles.

    Be forewarned....its a longer piece, so grab some coffee.

    thanks

  10. Funny story with the fish, in spite of well over 1500 worth of tackle and reels I had with me.

    I caught that one on my daughters barbie pole with a crappie hook and a minnow. It was awesome.....full 24" long and fat. Our little scale only went to 10lbs, but it was everybit of it. I wanted to get it officially scored, but my daughter cried because it was her first fish......and she wanted to eat it. It was delicious though.

    I've ruined her for life because she thinks everything under 2lbs is a baby now.

    Thanks for the read and the note.

  11. Carson, you seem fanatical enought to appreciate this one.

    If you get time, I thought you might like it. It can really be transferred to any sport or fan.

    Thanks for any feedback.

  12. How are you my friend? Ever surf Coco Beach?
