Paulus is confident he could take down Clausen, et al.

Greg Paulus was most recently featured on the Dan Patrick Show. For about 10 minutes, Patrick, in true form, blitzed Paulus about both basketball and football. He was pushing Paulus to see if he would say anything negative about Coach K and Duke. He even put Paulus on the spot by asking who has a better basketball team, Syracuse or Duke. But the real interest was his response about whether or not he is a better QB than Tim Tebow, Sam...

And then there were two…

The highly anticipated QB battle between three potential stars at the University of Georgia may have gotten a little less competitive this past weekend with the arrest of QB Zach Mettenberger. At the end of last season, Georgia’s coaching staff knew that there were three top prospects to lead the Bulldogs to conference supremacy in 2010: Logan Gray, Zach Mettenberger, and Aaron Murray. All three candidates brought something different to the field. Gray is a very fast and athletic...

Tebow’s penmanship earns thousands in one day

In a prior post, we discussed at length the absurdity of the amount Tim Tebow was charging for his autograph. Whichever side of the coin you fell on, this guy pictured above clearly thought it was worth every penny, $235 to be exact  ($160 for the autograph plus $75 for the Heisman picture). The pictured fan wasn’t the only one who couldn’t wait for the big day. On Saturday, the fans came out in droves to meet and greet the great Tim Tebow. One of the more unique items Tim...

Who’s that man on the horse?

If you’ve been wondering who that dashing young man is riding around on a horse promoting Old Spice, then you’ve come to the right place. The identity is none other than former ASU WR  Isaiah Mustafa. Mustafa may have not been a stellar wideout, but he did make it to the sidelines during the 1997 Rose Bowl lose to Ohio State, 20-17. Unfortunately, his football career never took off. He tried out for various teams to include the Tennessee Oilers...

Beavers can’t catch a break

Fans in Corvallis got some bad news from the NCAA. Unfortunately, the NCAA denied Oregon State QB Lyle Moevao’s appeal for an additional year of eligibility. Moevao injured his right shoulder during the 2008 season that ultimately led to shoulder surgery. After recovering from the surgery, Moevao worked his way back onto the field for the 2009 season to only play one down. In October of 2009, he injured his right ankle which ended his season. Due to his extensive...

Scott took a hit, but he’s still standing

Former Penn State RB Austin Scott’s dream of making millions took a small hit this week. Judge James F. McClure, Jr. dismissed three defendants from his civil rights suit, former Centre County District Attorney Michael Madeira, former assistant Lance Marshall, and Centre County, Pennsylvania. Scott’s civil rights suit arises from criminal charges filed against him in October 2007 for inter alia rape. The criminal case was ultimately dropped for lack of evidence, but the filing of that suit did...

West Virginia is limping at QB

Concerns are on the rise at West Virginia as QB Geno Smith will miss spring practice due to a broken foot injury. The heir apparent to Jarrett Brown broke his foot while participating earlier this year in team conditioning drills. Smith’s injury was originally going to sideline him for six weeks, but his continued pain and slower than anticipated recover is keeping him on the bench this spring. This should cause concern for the Mountaineers since their depth chart at QB is...
