In an unnecessary attempt to garner more attention surrounding the Jerry Sandusky scandal, the Centre County Court of Common Pleas is establishing a lottery for limited seating at the upcoming preliminary hearing. For those who want to attend, you will have to submit an application via the court’s website on Wednesday at noon. The application window will be available for only 24-hours. Winners will be randomly selected and assigned a specific seat. This will be a highly sought after...
With the Florida Gators continuing to struggle in the win column (6-6, 3-5 SEC), players are starting to pack their bags and move forward. Most recently, head coach Will Muschamp lost two more players who elected to transfer on Tuesday. Redshirt freshmen safety Josh Shaw and defensive end Lynden Trail have departed Gainesville to pursue football careers elsewhere. Shaw saw playing time primarily during special teams while Trail did not see any action this season. Both players were highly recruited by...
For all you naysayers and whistleblowers who want to continuously chastise Joe Paterno, please take into consideration that mainstream media is often misguided and misrepresented. The latest addition is coming from former vice president of student affairs Vickey Triponey who is saying that Joe Paterno treated football players more favorably than the university did with other students. Triponey isn’t actually stating anything new or groundbreaking. It’s safe to say that the majority of big time programs treat football...
Washington State redshirt freshman quarterback Connor Halliday made his first career start Saturday versus the Utah Utes, but unfortunately he might have made his last, at least for this season. During Wazzu’s thrilling but heartbreaking 30-27 OT loss to Utah, Halliday took several hits to the body throughout the game causing Halliday to suffer a lacerated liver. After the game, Halliday complained of intense pain so he was taken to Pullman Regional Hospital where specialists ultimately diagnosed the extent...
With a last name like Montana, you are almost expected to be great especially under center. Unfortunately, the Montana name did not translate to success for Joe Montana’s eldest son Nate. Now that Nate’s career is all but over (currently plays for the University of Montana), it’s Nick ’s time to carry on the Montana torch. Earlier today, head coach Steve Sarkisian tweeted to the Husky nation that red-shirt freshman Nick Montana will get his first career start as...
The Harvard-Yale football game is the biggest rivalry in Ivy League sports. So much so, Yale QB Patrick Witt opted out of his Rhodes Scholarship interview so he can play The Game. Harvard fans also love to get into the spirit of The Game by donning their best version of the snobbiest football gear to rouse Bulldog fans. This year’s version does not disappoint. For approximately $15, you can be the proud owner of the “Occupy Yale” pinnie. The...
After the Penn State scandal, all things college football seems so trivial but life goes on particularly for Iowa State’s WR Albert Gary. Gary has been charged with first-degree robbery stemming from an on campus robbery back in June. When head coach Paul Rhoads was informed of the incident, he suspended Gary for three games. Since he served his suspension, Gary has been cleared to play despite his current legal situation. This should come to no surprise as Oklahoma...
College football is all about winning, and when a star player breaks a rule, there is a direct correlation between the talent of the player and the suspension assessed. Case in point, during Thursday night’s game against Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech LB Jeremiah Attaochu (6-3, 235 lbs.) threw a flagrant punch at Hokie QB Logan Thomas citing an “overdose of adrenaline. Attaochu was flagged with a personal foul for the hit, but was not thrown out of the game....
