Kevin Wilson became Indiana’s new $8 million dollar man by inking a seven-year $8.4 million dollar deal with the hopes of restoring an Indiana Hoosiers team that is arguably the worst team in the Big X. Wilson is an offensive mastermind who brings to the table a spread open offense that was highly productive during his years at Oklahoma. Under his 9 year tenure with Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops, Wilson produced 3 of the most productive offenses in college football...
When head coach Tim Brewster arrived at Minnesota back in 2007 to replace Glen Mason, Gopher fans had high expectations and even set their eyes on the Rose Bowl. However, Brewster’s brief tenure at Minnesota was far from rosy. In 4 seasons, Brewster went a disappointing 15-30 with a paltry 6-21 record in Big Ten play. Last Saturday, the Gophers lost 28-17 to Purdue marking the sixth straight defeat for Brewster and company. Minnesota had enough and cut bait by...
Sadly, Iowa defensive coordinator Norm Parker had his right foot amputated last month due to complications from his battle with diabetes. Though he has been hospitalized since September, head coach Kirk Ferentz is anxiously waiting for Parker’s return to spur an Iowa defensive that ranks 4th in the nation allowing only 242.2 yards per game. Ferentz is more than confident that Parker will be back coaching prior to the end of the season and Parker wants nothing more but to...
The moment that college football fans have been waiting nearly 240 days for is finally here. The 2010-11 college football season officially begins this evening when Wake Forest plays host to Presbyterian at 6:30 PM EDT. Fans from Eugene, OR, to State College, PA, will be proudly wearing their colors, and school flags will be waving from cars like Sabal Palm trees on I-95 as thousand of fans make their annual pilgrimage to college towns throughout the nation. As of...
Last season when Tate Forcier led the Wolverines in a last second game-winning drive over Notre Dame, it was announced that “a star was born.” Since that victorious September afternoon, Tate Forcier has done nothing for the program to exemplify that cry. At this year’s Big 10 media day, senior cornerback Troy Woolfolk called out the Wolverine’s signal caller for failing to be a leader off the field and failing to show that he deserves to be the starter....
The Florida Citrus Bowl is getting a new look. The Orlando City council voted yesterday to approve dealings with AstroTurf that will bid farewell to grass and hola to turf. While the move is not yet final, all signs point to this measure being approved and turf being installed at the Orlando staple before the 2010 Champs Sports Bowl. This news shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone after watching last year’s Captial One Bowl game between LSU and...
Former Ohio State WR Duron Carter (son of NFL great Chris Carter) is headed to Coffeyville Community College in Coffeyville, KS. Carter, a freshman last season, played in ten games for the Buckeyes and accumulated 176 yards and 1 touchdown on 13 receptions. While Carter produced sporadically on the field, his production in the classroom slipped. He was ruled academically ineligible for Ohio State’s 2010 Citi Rose Bowl Game matchup against the Oregon Ducks and missed all of OSU’s...
Jacob Charest has transferred from the University of Illinois a week after Illini head coach Ron Zook named Nathan Scheelhaase the starting QB for the 2010 season. This news doesn’t really come as that much of a shocker as Charest had become buried in the depth chart over the course of spring practices. Charest is currently at home in North Carolina and hasn’t yet decided if he will enroll at another Division 1 football program where he’d have to...
