It looks like Urban Meyer has put to rest the question and rumor of whether or not he will leave Florida to coach at Notre Dame next season or in the near future. Meyer just signed a 6 year deal worth approximately $4 million per year. He will remain head coach and under the new deal will also be the co-chairman of a university scholarship program in which he already committed $1 million during his tenure.

Most of the sports books have the over/under on PSU at 9.5 (I’m assuming this is why you are asking your question). Based on...
I’m not sure who Broderick Green knows, but he pulled off a miracle in transferring from USC to Arkansas without having to sit out a year. Back in November, he announced he was going to transfer to Arkansas to be closer to his ailing maternal grandmother.
