Chase Daniel's Girlfriend

From the Missourian:

“I hear the rumors,” (Blaire) Vandiver said. “It gets old. The people who matter know what kind of relationship we have.” And that relationship didn't start how you might assume.

“I wanted nothing to do with him for the first three months,” she said. Vandiver, who is from Richmond, Mo., and is a year younger than Daniel, met him in June 2007 through a mutual friend.

“My roommate told me Chase Daniel was coming over, and I was like, ‘Cool. I don’t care,’” Vandiver said.

The quarterback came up to Vandiver’s room, where she was doing sit-ups on the floor.

"I wasn't wearing makeup, and I had sweats on," she recalled. “He starts showing me certain ab moves to do, and I’m like, ‘OK, this is awkward,’” she recalled.

Vandiver didn't realize he was interested in her until she got a text message: “Hey this is Chase. Nice meeting you.” He had asked her roommate for Vandiver’s phone number that night.

Over the summer, the two spent time together in a group, going to the pool or eating at Taco Bell.

...“I love her,” Daniel said. “And she’s definitely one of the strongest, both mentally and emotionally, girlfriends I’ve had."

Daniel's mom said her son has had unsuccessful relationships with “clingy” girls who did not appreciate Daniel’s dedication to football.

“It takes a girl that has a lot of confidence in herself to date Chase,” Vickie Daniel said.

“It was never just me and him,” she said. “I wouldn’t let it be just me and him.”

Vandiver was not looking for a boyfriend at that point. She especially did not want to go out with the starting quarterback.

“I wasn’t ready for a relationship with him,” Vandiver said. “I didn’t want to be that girl dating Chase Daniel.”

Vandiver sits with Daniel's mom, dad and sister every week because she says they are just as emotionally invested in the game as she is.

After the Colorado game, Vandiver waited outside the locker room with Daniel’s family while the quarterback signed autographs. She wore his father’s leather jacket to keep warm as she talked to his sister and friends.

“See, she doesn’t need to stand next to him right now,” Bill Daniel said. “She understands.”

“I’m not that type of girl. I don’t need to tell people I’m Chase’s girlfriend,” Vandiver said. “Chase knows I’m his girlfriend. That’s all that matters.”

...Vandiver said she initially hesitated about being interviewed and photographed for this story. With Daniel’s encouragement, she agreed.

Let me get right to the point here. I don't like this girl's motives one bit. Not only has she snowballed Chase, but apparently she has his mom and dad right where she wants them. What's even worse is that Chase is using the "L" word when he talks about her. This chick is attention starved. Hesitant about doing this interview and being photographed by the Missourian? She wasn't too hesitant when ESPN the Magazine called her for an interview. Mark this down: the minute Chase sees his draft stock plummet to the late rounds, she's on the first train out of town. Chase, you know I'm not your biggest fan, but when I feel like you need some life advice, I'll be happy to help here. Run, baby, run!!

Hunter Lawrence's Girlfriend

Who is Hunter Lawrence you ask? He is the place-kicker for the Texas Longhorns who apparently loves to kick long both on and off the field. Although I'm not real sure about his girlfriend, Meaghan, I do know that she rates up there with any of the girlfriends I've shown you before as far as looks go. Supposedly, the fine people at Busted Coverage got their hands on these photos of Meaghan and Hunter in action through ways I'm not sure they want anyone to really know. Either way, they still got them.

First things first though. Since it has been way too long since I've plastered any pictures of girlfriends up on here, I'd thought it couldn't hurt to refresh your minds a little so you have something to compare the lovely Meaghan to.

Sam Keller's Girlfriend
Not Tim Tebow's Girlfriend
Chase Daniel's Girlfriend
Colt McCoy's Girlfriend
Casey Dick's Girlfriend
Knowshon Moreno and Matthew Stafford's Girlfriends
Lane Kiffin's Girlfriend Wife

Even though Hunter is a field goal kicker, you can clearly see he is outkicking his coverage on this one. I'm sure Mack Brown has a spot at punter with the name Hunter Lawrence written all over it for next season.

More Of Chase Daniel's Girlfriend: Blaire Vandiver

Let me preface this by saying that just because Chase Daniel is no longer at Missouri, that still won't take away my lasting impressions of him: the hat, the chest bumps, the Twitter fights, the booger thing, the false claim that an "unknown" Nebraska player spit on him, etc., etc., etc. However, I will always envy him in one department, which is having a smoking hot girlfriend.

Anyways, apparently Chase #1 is still dating Blaire Vandiver. If you recall, Blaire has graced the homepage here before, and since it's the slow time of year, she's going to do it again.

Solid work, Blaine #1. Oops, I meant Chase #1.

Casey Dick's Girlfriend

Actually, it's his fiancee, Felicia. Arkansas quarterback Casey Dick has had a pretty good run the last few years. First, he stumbles across this little southern belle while in rehab for a back injury in 2006. Next, later that same year, Mitch Mustain transfers to USC leaving the QB job all his for his final two years. Casey Dick might not end up as the most high-profile collegiate QB, but the one thing you can never take away from him is that his girlfriend is hotter than Sam Keller's girlfriend, Tim Tebow's fake girlfriend, Colt McCoy's girlfriend, and Chase Daniel's girlfriend.

Said Felicia about when she first met Casey at the clinic, "I remember thinking that he had big ears and I really wanted to rub them! I have a huge ear fetish and I like to rub peoples ears when they are cold. I know call his ears "my refrigerators.""


And one of Felicia's 10 things she loves about Casey: "I love it when he lets me rub his ears when I am tired."

The moral of this story is size does matter.

DXP's Friday Roundup

Sorry for the absence this week. We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.


**I would have bet you the farm that the next time I mentioned Sam Keller on this blog it would have been in conjunction with Casey Connelly. Man, I was way off. Keller is suing video game giant Electronic Arts (EA Sports) and the NCAA for the blatant and unlawful use of student-athlete likenesses in EA Sports video games. The class-action lawsuit claims "virtually every real-life Division I football or basketball player in the NCAA has a corresponding player in Electronic Arts’ games with the same jersey number, and virtually identical height, weight, build and home state. In addition, Electronic Arts often matches the player’s skin tone, hair color and often even a player’s hair style.” According to the LJS, 'the suit further contends that the NCAA and its licensing arm, Collegiate Licensing Company, have approved such use of players’ names and likenesses, which clashes with the NCAA bylaw that prohibits commercialization of a student-athlete’s name, picture or likeness.'

Although I am a big fan of EA Sports video games, I love it that a former collegiate player, whose playing days have been behind him since his sophomore year in college, has the means to take on the NCAA and a video game giant. The NCAA is hypocritical in everything they stand for. It's funny how they can take a player's eligibility away and turn his life upside down because of a homework paper that went missing in prep school but then turnaround the same year and use that same player for profit in a video game. This lawsuit is far from over and I absolutely think that Keller's class-action suit has some merit here. Go get'em Sam. And in case you're wondering, Keller lives in Phoenix and is currently working as a bartender while he trains to become a firefighter. Whether or not Casey is still in the picture, here's to hoping she is still working the pole while Sam is still serving up some rufi coladas.

**Former Duke basketball star Greg Paulus concluded his two day visit to Lincoln last weekend. Paulus is mulling his decision over two schools right now - Syracuse and Nebraska. “Sooner than later, I think,” Joe Casamento, Paulus’ high school coach, told the LJS on Wednesday about his decision. “I don’t think it will go on more than two weeks.” I've had many an argument with some folks over the past few weeks about what I think about Paulus possibly coming to Nebraska. It's a win-win. One, Paulus can add much needed depth at QB and possibly open the door for Cody Green to redshirt. Two (as some commenters here have said), having a Duke graduate attend graduate school at Nebraska is fantastic for the academic department. My prediction: Paulus will go to Syracuse. He can play immediately there, and since he wants to continue his studies in broadcast journalism, he should just ask anyone that works at ESPN what school he should attend. But what hell, if you want to come Nebraska, Greg, you're more than welcome.

**I've always given former QB Joe Ganz his due for his toughness and leadership and I've always been hard on him for his abilities. Therefore, I am more than willing to be proven wrong again as the QB battle in Washington between Ganz, Chase Daniel, and Colt Brennan will heat up come camp. Ganz has several things going for him here. One, I don't believe Daniel and Brennan have ever taken a snap from under center before the NFL - ever. Furthermore, Ganz has played in a pro-style oriented offense much more than Daniel and Brennan and should be able to pick up the offense quicker. It's hard to argue that Ganz was a product of a system at Nebraska. Two, Ganz' biggest downfall is size and size doesn't matter here. Daniel is listed at 6'0, 225 lbs., Brennan is at 6'3, 200 lbs., and Ganz is at 6'1, 210 lbs. In other words, they're all equal and I don't see any of these QB's possessing outstanding arm strength. And finally, the numbers game doesn't hurt as many teams usually have more than five initially competing for the three spots at QB. Go get'em Joe.

**Former Huskers Erwin Swiney and Lawrence Phillips were both back in the news this week, and to everyone's surprise, it wasn't football related. Swiney received 2-5 years for possession of 41 pounds of marijuana with intent to distribute and another 12-13 months for not having a drug tax stamp. My only question here is what is a drug tax stamp? Phillips faces up to 25 years in prison if he is convicted in a San Diego court. He's charged with only eight felonies and two alleged assaults from attacking his girlfriend in 2005. I don't know who didn't see that one coming, but thankfully, Phillips is already serving a 10 year sentence for hitting three teens with his car after a pick-up football game in Los Angeles. Think you can run from Lawrence Phillips don't you, but where are you gonna go?

**The Big 12 recently relased their APR rankings - Academic Progress Rate - for their football programs. Oklahoma lead all Big 12 schools with 952, Missouri had a score of 951, and Nebraska came in third with 950. Rounding out the bottom was Colorado with 929, Baylor with 930, and Texas Tech with 935. Colorado is at danger level as a score of 925 (60 percent graduation rate) will lose you a scholarship for every player that left the program due to academics. Currently, they are at four for sure with the fifth possibly coming. I've been saying that Colorado will be the next head coaching job to open up in the Big 12, and with Colorado being a pretty decent academic school (4th best in the Big 12), look for Dan Hawkins to hit the hot seat soon. And one more thing, when Mike Leach said that the tie-breaker for the Big 12 title game last season should be graduation rates, exactly what the hell was the mad scientist talking about?

**And finally, Playboy's Best Boobs Bracket has concluded. Basically, it was a single elimination tournament featuring the best from the Big 12, SEC, Pac-10, and Big 10. (***editor's note: every link from here on is NSFW!! NSFW!! wait until you get home!***) To view the entire bracket, click here. LSU's Whitney Leigh took home first prize as she nudged out Ohio State's Mari Morgan in the finals. If you're at work now and if you missed the tournament in its entirety, make sure to catch up when the timing is right. Fantastic stuff I must say. Nebraska was represented by the lovely Amanda Adams who was eventually knocked out in the second round. Who is Amanda Adams you ask? Only this smokeshow below that you can see more of by clicking here - NSFW! Enjoy.
