Dean is a Javelina

Earlier this week we reported that standout wide receiver Delashaun Dean was indefinitely suspended from the Arizona Wildcats for brandishing a firearm at the local IHOP. With his criminal charges looming (Dean has court on Tuesday), he thought it best to trade his Wildcats jersey for a Javelinas. That’s right, Dean confirmed his intentions of transferring to Division II Texas A&M Kingsville. Dean considered several D-II teams but felt he would fit best with a program that has won 7 D-II national...

Masoli trying to make possible, possible

Former Oregon QB Jeremiah Masoli is looking for a different kind of limelight. NFL.com is reporting that the troubled Masoli will enter this year’s NFL supplemental draft which will be held on July 15th.

Early Saturday morning, Dean decided to tip back the devil’s juice and top off the night with a short stack from IHOP. As we all know, when you visit the greasy spoon on North Oracle Road, you always pack some heat because you never know the type of service you will get. Unfortunately for Dean, a patron saw Dean brandish...

On Monday, WR Jameel Owens got some good news from the NCAA. Owens, a former Oklahoma Sooner top-prospect, transferred to Tulsa to be closer to his sick mother. Per NCAA rules, players are required to sit out one year when transferring between D-1 schools. Owens petitioned the NCAA to waive the transfer rule citing family health reasons. The NCAA reviewed the petition and ultimately granted a transfer waiver that cleared the path for Owens to suit up in 2010....
