When it comes to receivers, the University of Arkansas does not have a long, illustrious history. Sure there have been standouts: Chuck Dicus in the ‘60s, Bobby Duckworth, who played in the NFL in the ‘80s, and Anthonys Eubanks and Lucas in the ‘90s. Don't say Lance Alworth or Gary Anderson, however. Alworth, who is enshrined in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame, played running back at Arkansas, as did Anderson, mostly. Yes, there were a few Arkansas ...

It almost seemed like something out of a dream for the Radford Highlanders basketball team (21-11).  Just five months ago, the Radford student body was storming the court of the Dedmon Center after being crowned Big South Champions by virtue of defeating the VMI Cadets 108-94 in the final game of the tournament.  The Highlanders earned an automatic bid in the NCAA Tournament for only the second time in school history where they would face ACC powerhouse North Carolina Tarheels (34-4) in ...

The Dawgs continue to get little in the way of national respect these days. The gang over at ESPN has already pegged the Gators as the Champions of the SEC East; although to be honest, with Superman back at the helm, it is hard not to pick the Gators. Still, though, can we at least try and show a little less disrespect to the rest of the SEC East?Further, there's actually a poll out that ...

Out with the old, and in with the new. It’s a phrase that I don’t necessarily like, due to my hesitance when it comes to change. As an avid Auburn football fan, it’s been a rough year full of changes. From a disappointing season on the field to the exit of what I consider one of the school’s best football coaches, the real fans have shown themselves in the aftermath of 2008. I’m encouraged by the presence ...

In any given game, on any given field, there is always one player who can stand head and shoulders above anyone on the field. These are the gamebreakers that drive coaches crazy, and can take over at any time. Everyone in the stadium knows that once these players get the ball or line up on defense, the game is over. Here are 11 of the best:   11. Charles Woodson vs. Ohio State—1997 On a cold, grey November day, Charles ...

The great success of the Memphis Tigers during the 2007-08 season has been erased from the record books, but it's not like Back to the Future (sorry for the 1985 reference) where the very existence of Alex P. Keaton was at stake if he couldn’t power up the DeLorean and get back to the Reagan years.This isn't the case. It still happened. We all remember it, and always will. The Tigers still went to the ...

In case you have not heard, the Florida Gators are the defending BCS Champions and they return just about everyone this year. Led by former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow, Florida is looking to repeat and this time with an undefeated season; something the Gators have failed to do in their three other national title seasons. To get a better look at the Gators, I asked Thomas Goldkamp who runs Florida Gator Stop and the ...

  The preseason AP Poll was released this week and, as expected, the Georgia Bulldogs sit at the No. 13 spot. Most of the polls have Georgia in that neighborhood, ahead of their cross state rival Georgia Tech, and right behind their opening day opponent, the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Many feel that despite all the talent that Georgia has, the loss of Matt Stafford and Knowshon Moreno will be too much to replace. The Dawgs may have ...

Washington State football coaches and players charged through the fall camp paces again today, Friday. Actually, they went through them twice with morning and an afternoon session. Results? The new attitude in Pullman continues to evolve. Coach Paul Wulff and his staff are getting some good looks at a lot of players putting in serious work to make a contribution to the team. And what the coaches are seeing is a group aggressively playing good old fashioned hard nosed football. What a ...

We all know about the Tyler Moeller story. He was in intensive care after being punched by a drunk on a family vacation in Florida and then suffered a relapse a couple weeks back. Now, not only is he out for the season, but his entire career is in jeopardy. And even if he does come back, he's going to have to earn his spot all over again. I recently read an article about him always smiling and ...
