Randall Hill: It wasn't my fault that they built that stadium where there was a tunnel in the endzone that I scored in. It wasn't my fault that the doors were open in that tunnel. It wasn't my fault that it was not illegal for me to run through that tunnel. Don't blame me. You can blame the architects of that stadium. You can blame the University of Texas for taunting us.

'Humility' Was Not In Their Vocabulary
24 January 2011 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Wow, are these the most despicable college athletes ever? It sure looks it. I've talked to a half-dozen people who watched this episode and all of them wanted to put their hand through the TV and slap some of these arrogant punks, which includes coach Jimmy Johnson. "Swagger" is okay, but this is way too much.

One thing I'll say is the players and coaches sure put the U. of Miami football program on the map, and it was an exciting brand of football to watch. However, when you watch this show of non-stop in-your-face arrogance by those involved you'll be anything but a fan of the "U."

Have any of these thugs heard of the word "humility?" I think not.
