The ball is now in the NCAA's court after Southeastern Conference commissioner Mike Slive sent a strong message to the organization on Friday on the final day of SEC meetings. Slive stated that the Power Five conferences, which include the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big 12, Big Ten and Pac-12, would consider moving to a "Division IV" if the NCAA doesn't award them autonomy and free up the big five to create their own set of bylaws, ...

When Texas head coach Charlie Strong hired his new coaching staff, he expressed the importance of his staff having ties in the state of Texas. But two of his assistant coaches' ties are much deeper than the others. Defensive coordinator Vance Bedford and wide receiver coach Les Koenning have a significant understanding of what it takes to be a football player at the University of Texas. They understand how it feels to run onto the field at ...

The offseason is nothing if not a time for predictions. That's why it's time for optimistic, pessimistic and realistic predictions for every Big Ten team this season.  No one was surprised to see Ohio State in last year's Big Ten title game, but how many figured Michigan State would become one of the hottest teams in the country by year's end?  Will this season have any more surprises? Or will it be preseason favorites dominating the top ...

The latter won a national championship, too. But it's not just quarterbacks who can make an impact after sitting out a year. Redshirt freshman Shock Linwood emerged as a force at running back for Baylor last season, and in ...

The final day of SEC spring meetings means it's time for Mike Slive to hand out some checks.  No, they weren't those oversized novelty checks that Adam Sandler demanded in Happy Gilmore, but Slive did need quite a bit of room to fit all of the zeros in. The conference announced a record revenue distribution of $309.6 million, which averages out to over $20.9 million per school. For perspective, the SEC distributed a total of $304.7 million a ...

Clemson got a big boost to its 2015 class by adding playmaking wide receiver Deon Cain.
