Reigning Heisman Trophy Award winner Johnny Manziel faces a lot of pressure heading into 2013.

However, a lot of talk surrounding the redshirt sophomore will be his transition from college to the pros. It is widely speculated that, given he has a healthy and productive 2013 season, Manziel will declare for the NFL...
Not only is Georgia’s Jarvis Jones the best linebacker in the nation, but he is arguably the best defensive player in the NCAA.

Former BYU defensive lineman and Washington Redskin alum Jason Buck can “no longer stand by while Barack Obama…destroys the fabric of our government.” With Buck’s strong statements bashing the administration’s lavish spending, the All-American linebacker announced that he will seek the Republican nomination for Utah’s 2nd Congressional District to tackle Obama’s free spending. Buck wants a leaner government that is “pro-family and fiscally sound.” Buck will have to face-off against a litany of fellow conservatives for the GOP nomination....

Obviously, all that was struck down after Blount sucker punched a Boise State player in the Ducks’ opening game of the 2009 season. Blount was immediately suspended from the team and did not return until late in the season and only on...
