Dooley hits the refresh button

Greg King and Marlon Walls will join their teammates when Tennessee opens fall practice this Wednesday in Knoxville. King, a linebacker from Memphis, and Walls, a defensive tackle from Olive Branch, Mississippi, were suspended from the team following a bar brawl last month that left an undercover police officer injured. Head coach Derrick Dooley reinstated the two saying that they showed regret and were contrite in their apologies throughout the investigation process. Tennessee has been under a lot of scrutiny this off-season...

His off-the field antics certainly cause concern over his commitment to not only football, but life in general. Masoli, who was probably on parole at birth, has always been fighting the law. What first landed him in hot water at Oregon was his felony charges...

To be Blount, a Titan?

In 2009, Oregon’s LeGarrette Blount was set to take the stage at running back for the Ducks and was predicted by experts to be a 2nd, or at worst, a 3rd round draft pick in the 2010 NFL draft.

Blount was immediately suspended from the team and did not return until late in the season and only on...
