Written by Akiem Balium It’s very amazing what happens when you walk up to the majority of business executives and say “We’ve got an $11 billion offer we want to tell you about.” The executive will most likely stop you before you have a chance to explain since you obviously had them at “$11 billion”. The NCAA is the executive in this case and CBS is the bidder. Only this time CBS has ...

As a fair warning, certain aspects of this article may seem graphic to many readers. It is my unfortunate, journalistic responsibility to report on this event, but as far as I can tell, Notre Dame has officially embarrassed themselves far more than any of their football defeats (at the hands of Troy) ever could have embarrassed them. Following the making and viral distribution of this Youtube video, it is my great displeasure to inform all ...

Anyone who watched Villanova's disappointing 2010 season has no questions as to who the heart, soul, and backbone of the team was. Yes, that's correct: Scottie Reynolds. With Reynolds making a departure from the Main Line and heading upwards and outwards into the NBA, many fans and analysts are wondering just how well his skill set will translate into the big leagues. Size, as always, is an issue. In Reynolds' case, it's the size of his body ...

With the recent success of recruiting at Auburn, Gene Chizik and his remarkably effective recruiting staff have caused other Big Time recruiters to call "Uncle!" The NCAA has made a rule prohibiting more than two coaches from a staff being present at one school during the spring evaluation period. The rule specifically fits Auburn’s Tiger Prowl spring fundraising tour. It also mentions the use of items like limousines and buses. New NCAA president Mark Emmert, whose previous claim ...

The hooting and hollering that took place in Durham earlier this month wasn’t audible in Chapel Hill. Even Coach K and his brood are bound by the laws of physics. But make no mistake—when the Duke Blue Devils returned to campus met by a hero’s welcome, the reverberation was not only felt up and down Tobacco Road, but throughout the entire ACC. 2009 was supposed to be a stepping-stone year for a realistic ...

Terrence Jones is committing today.  And I got this tidbit from ballerjunkie who’s busy running his players through 3 man weave drills... Let me holler at you real quick with an update on Terrence Jones’ decision. Terrence Jones, the big name remaining on the board, is expected to announce his college choice today. While this kid has kept a tight lid on his expected destination, I believe that there are three schools ...

Over the past ten years, there have been some high quality Georgia Tech football players that just never seem to get the attention they deserve. High profile schools such as USC, Texas, and Florida always dominate the Heisman Hopeful charts, while Georgia Tech always plays second fiddle with many times superior players. Here is a list of all the guys that we wish would have won these past ten years. I'm not saying that they ...

Ok, so we might win by 30 points.  Be careful Urban, be very Careful Ask Meeeeechigan how confident they were going into that 2007 game vs. Appalachian state.  Probably fairly confident would you say. After all, they were ranked in the top five, had the likes of Henne and Jake Long, and it was, in fact, at the "Big House." I still remember seeing the look on many a Wolverine fan's face as that last second field goal ...

While Big East fans tremble, SEC fans brace themselves, and the rest of college football waits to see what the Big Ten will do, there are no guarantees that their proposed expansion will succeed. Even though a Chicago research firm's report indicated that expansion will be profitable, they can't guarantee anything.   Why the "Crown Jewel" Will Make Big Ten Expansion Work Getting Notre Dame to join the Big Ten as the 12th team is what Big Ten ...

The Michigan Wolverines basketball staff continues to recruit for at least one more spot for the 2010-2011 class. One of the remaining targets is state-of-Michigan prospect Isaiah Sykes, a 6'5", 200-pound small forward who is considered a slasher/scorer. He is not known as a strong outside shooter but is a talented young man. As of right now, Sykes has two offers, one from Michigan and one from the University of Central Florida. He ...
