Phil Steele is arguably the most obsessive college football fan ever. Each summer, thousands of college football fans anxiously await for Steele’s College Football Preview magazine. This year’s edition is set to hit newsstands on June 8, 2010. Much to the delight of TCU fans, their heralded QB Andy Dalton will grace the cover of the Texas issue (Steele issues regional and national covers). TCU’s Dalton was the 2009 Mountain West Conference Player of the Year. He led the...
Head coach Bobby Petrino has a penchant for changing jobs frequently. In 2006, he up and left Louisville to coach the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons. Without even giving the Falcons one year, he bolted Atlanta and headed to Arkansas to take over Houston Nutt’s Razorbacks. Now there is question of whether or not Petrino is going to stick around Arkansas. Earlier today, Petrino’s 8,000 square foot 6 bedroom and 6 baths East Fayetteville mansion was on the market. This startled...
Former Penn State WR and NFL first round pick O.J. McDuffie has $11.5 million reasons to smile. The ex-Dolphin’s star WR won his medical malpractice lawsuit against former team doctor John Uribe after two weeks of trial. Back in 1999, McDuffie suffered a big toe injury. Though his MRI revealed he had a serious toe injury, Dr. Uribe (if I can still call him doctor) and other team doctors said the exam was inconclusive and the workhorse needed to go back...
The Colorado Buffaloes continue to deal with another off-the-field incident. This time Coach Dan Hawkins had no choice but to suspend one of his players for an unfortunate act. Junior LB Brandon Gouin was suspended from the team for providing alcohol to minors. What makes this story disturbing was he was supplying high school kids with booze. Apparently, Gouin purchased four kegs of Rolling Rock beer for the 200 or so students, one being his brother, attending Boulder High’s...
SC’s Matt Barkley is having his right hand reexamined today after injuring it in Saturday’s spring game. During the 3rd quarter, Barkley struck DT Jurrell Casey’s helmet on his follow through. As a precautionary measure, Barkley was immediately taken out of the game to rest and ice his injured hand. Sheriff Lane Kiffin was displeased with the injury and tossed Casey out of the game for his aggressive play. Though we do not know the extent of Barkley’s injury, it...
The Midshipmen will meet President Barack Obama today at 4:00 p.m. for the annual presentation of the 2009 Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy. Last season, the Midshipmen defeated Air Force (16-13) and Army (17-3) to clinch their 7th consecutive trophy. As of late, Navy has dominated the service academies winning 15 consecutive games dating back to 2002. The Midshipmen completed the 2009 season with a 35-13 win over Missouri in the Texas Bowl. The Air Force Falcons still have the most Commander-in-Chief’s...
In 2011, Alabama will be making a trip to Happy Valley just in time to hear the new and improved audible assault at Beaver Stadium. After an in-depth study of acoustic engineering, a team of scientists discovered a way to optimize the noise level at Beaver Stadium all in the name of discomfort for visiting teams. Already dubbed the best student section in college football by ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit and scientifically the loudest stadium in college football, Beaver Stadium is...
Earlier in the spring season we reported on the success of Nate Montana’s spring game in South Bend. Now it looks like another Montana is shining but over on the west coast. The Huskies’ nation got their first glimpse of Nick Montana during Washington’s annual Spring Game last night. Over 15,000 Huskies fans stood in the wind and rain to watch the son of Hall of Fame QB Joe Montana lead the Purple (No. 2 offense and No ....
