Is South Carolina a good football team?

By Milling Galloway

Does South Carolina have a good football atmosphere? Yes. Does South Carolina have the resources to be a national ranked team? Yes. Once again the answers to all these questions are yes. Sure enough we are a mediocre team once again. I’m tired of this. Year after year it’s the same thing over and over again. Why can’t we ever be good? Only once in the program’s history has South Carolina ever been good.

The problem, in my opinion, is that our offense is terrible. Our defense could easily stand with the best offenses in the nation; Bama, Georgia, any of them to be honest. Our offense once again is holding us back. Sellers is a decent quarterback that can run: He is not the problem. Our receivers are trash and our offensive line is atrocious. Lets step away from the negatives and look at the positives. Rocket Sanders is one of the most talented running backs we have ever seen. He has turned what should be no yard gains into explosive plays for the offense. Our tight end core has some good true freshmen talent that I would like to see more of.

Shane in my opinion isn’t the coach for us. It’s time to go looking for new staff. He has been given too much leniency. The play calling has to change as well. That means it is time to get rid of Dowell Loggins as soon as possible. The only reason we played a good game against Alabama is because of the Defense led by Kyle Kenard. It certainly helps the team when you have the best defense of end in the country. I honestly can not take the embarrassment of being a fan of South Carolina. You just get to a point where you know we are gonna lose and just accept our fate. All I know is if Shane doesn’t get his act together, we are gonna have a lot of problems.

Is Ryan Williams the best wide receiver in college football?

By Milling Galloway

As an avid college football viewer, I would like to say I have the authority to think Ryan Williams is the best receiver in college football. Although Jeremiah Smith is one of the most alien-like physical specimens the world has ever seen. Don’t quote me on that! I mean the guy is a beast. Two one hand catches with ease last week. He’s just that type of guy, but there is one man above them all. Ryan Hollywood Williams, as the young man and the world would call him. 247 Sports mentions, “The Crimson Tide’s leader in catches, yards and touchdowns through four starts, Williams is already a superstar. He averages a jaw-dropping 28.9 yards per catch and should be a Biletnikoff finalist as a first-year player if he stays healthy and top-ranked Alabama keeps up in the College Football Playoff picture.” This young man is something else. Putting numbers up like that, should be a crime. He is seventeen years old! My age and touching arguably the best defense in the country, in Georgia. This year the rise of the true freshman is taking over the sport. Another case people may argue is Travis hunter is the best receiver. I really like him as the best player in the country, but not as the best receiver. Everyone already knows he’s a freak of nature. Marca.com remarks, “As a sophomore, he was crowned Alabama’s Mr. Football-the first underclassman to receive the honor-thanks to a season with 1,641 receiving yards, 24 receiving touchdowns, 700 rushing yards, and 15 rushing touchdowns.” This shows that Hollywood has been doing this since high school. He also won back to back National Gatorade player of the year. He also graduated early and is still the best receiver in the nation. The world has never seen a kid of this caliber and the world and I are so excited to see what the future holds for the young man.

Is sports betting a reliable source of income?

By: Milling Galloway

Sports betting is an addiction that many people struggle with. Which pops the question can sports betting bring in a steady income. If we are going to look into this, first you have to understand what sports betting is. Forbes states, “Sports betting is the act of risking money on the outcome of a sporting event or any aspect of a sporting event. The goal is to turn a profit.Sports betting includes wagers on the moneyline, spread, Over/Under, parlays, props and futures.Multiple factors determine how much money sports bettors can win.” So, if you were asking the question of if it’s gambling. The answer would be yes. Unlike other gambling ways sports betting is the most reliable of them all. Unless you know nothing about what you are going to gamble on. ElitePickz mentions, “Professional sport bettors rarely sustain long-term winning percentage above 56% and sometimes the lowest win rate of 53 – 54 %. The break even winning percentage of a profitable sports bettor is typically 52.4%.” This truly isn’t that bad of odds and you also have to put in perspective of how many non-knowledgeable people make bets. I personally think sports betting could be a profession. It’s kinda like being a stockbroker, just with sports. Some sports bets can give you a max payout of a lot of money. The bad thing about it though is that the risk can be very high. Losing money is a common theme among people. But not me, just kidding I am not old enough to bet. When I turn the appropriate age, I might dabble into the sports betting industry. In my opinion nothing can beat sitting back on the couch and relaxing. Also you will be making money at the same time. What gets better than that? Nothing does, so sports betting could be a sustainable profession.

Rating Golf Courses: Lakewood

By: Milling Galloway

The Links at Lakewood is a golf course located in Sumter, South Carolina. I will be giving my full opinion and rating of this course. Many people play this golf course. I have played this golf course many times as well. It stands out to me with its beautiful scenery. Even though it has great views, the courses does not stay in great condition. The greens at Lakewood are very friendly toward the golfers and have a nice calm tempo. The fairways are where this course does not shine. The grass most of the time is not cut and many times there are obstacles in the fairways. The hole that I want to highlight is the 13th. This in my opinion is the hardest hole in the course, you have to hit a good shot over the lake. The distance is around 100 to 150 yards, depending on what Tee Box you play from. The thing that stands out about this whole is the scenery. When you first step on the Tee Box, you see the vast Lake all around you. When you step onto the green, you also only see the vast Lake around you. When you play at this course it is clear to see that this is a beginner’s course, for people who enjoy playing golf. I am new to golf,  so playing this course is a great way to get better. If you are an advanced player, then this course is not for you. On a scale, I will rate this course a 6.5 out of 10. To me, Lakewood is not a top-tier golf course. Yes, I would play this course for fun, but if I could go to another golf course I would. To conclude, I like the golf course, but its just not a high value golf course.
