Hopefully the waterboy can block

Posted by JoeM

In what has to be the biggest fluke in college football so far, Texas lost its third tight end to a season-ending injury this season.
Ian Harris, who played in three games last season, will miss 2009 because of some recurrence of a stinger. Harris was replacing D.J. Grant (knee surgery), who was replacing Blaine Irby [...]

A lot going on in upstate New York

There probably won’t be much to say about Syracuse football this season, so let’s talk about it now.
The Orange were in the news quite a bit this week, and not for being blown out in any games. First-year coach Doug Marrone has already shaken things up with his quarterbacks. After naming sophomore Ryan Nassib the starter [...]

So long summer; hello pigskin

Posted by JoeM

While just about every Division I-A football team has been back at it for over a week now, most of the student body is starting to filter back to campus.

Is an athletic scholarship the same as payment?

Posted by JoeM

Like most males under the age of 35, I enjoy playing video games. And I tend to get hooked on them. When my roommate and I first got Guitar Hero II, I played so much that I lost feeling in my left middle finger. True story.

Paulus heading home after college … to play for SU

Posted by JoeM

For some, leaving college is just hard. Matt Leinart said as much when he decided to stay for a fifth season at USC. Personally, I spent about three weeks moping about not being a college student anymore, and it took about a year to stop longing for those days.
Maybe its the same for Greg Paulus, [...]

Everyone loves Greg Paulus

Posted by JoeM

What is going on with all the interest in Greg Paulus?
I doubt there are many NBA teams looking into a point guard who was benched during his senior season, even if said point guard played at Duke.
No, it’s not any basketball team showing interest in Paulus. The interest is on the football field.
It’s not as [...]

It’s on now

Posted by JoeM

Let’s take a step away from college basketball and turn our attention to some college football news for a moment.
The war of words - and whatever else you can think of - seems to be on between new Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin and everyone involved with the Florida Gators. Back in February, Kiffin falsely accused [...]

The league sent a proposal on Wednesday to the BCS to make an eight-team playoff system for Division I-A football. It calls for an end of the current BCS, where only two teams have a chance to win a national championship, and to stop using the BCS standings [...]
