Ohio State head coach Ryan Day came up with what I think makes good sense given the current situation. Instead of spring football he basically wants a January/February season. This will help mitigate a full scale exit from draft types which would include linebackers Pete Werner and Tuf Borland...

I don't like teams straying too far away from their geography to join big boy conferences. I agree Nebraska belongs in the Big 12 and their rivalry with Oklahoma ranked as among the greatest of all time. Florida State will never be mistaken with Iowa but it does seem Norvell is less caste than...

I have been watching a lot of NBA games since the restart and I think the play has been pretty good. I have gotten to the point where I ignore the "Black Looting Matters" backdrop and the irritating little slogans on their backs. Just yesterday I caught the Boston/Memphis game followed by...

If Nebraska goes rogue there is a good chance they would get kicked out of the Big Ten which is second only to the SEC as far as football revenue. Nebraska would then lose the 52 million dollars they receive from the Big Ten. Put all that into the blender and chances are pretty slim Nebraska...

A tale of two cities. Both hockey and baseball were founded on tough blue collar values but only one has continued in that vain. Tampa Bay beat Columbus in a six hour plus five overtime opening playoff game. A rugged fast moving sport they won't be able to walk properly for weeks it seems...

Like that Agatha Christie book "then there were three." The Pac 12 has given up the ghost as well.

The Big Ten as expected pulled the plug.

3 Star TE Jake Renda (6'5" 230) switched his commitment from Michigan State to Pittsburgh. Meanwhile of most interest to me is speed demon WR Drew Donley (6'2" 170). He is down to 8 schools. That isn't exactly whittling things down. Here are the 8 teams-Ole Miss, Boise State, Cincinnati...

The Mountain West is the next domino to fall. Key teams include Air Force and Wyoming. Also Old Dominion of Conference USA has packed up their bags. They are the first team in a conference to go rogue. This is starting to resemble that movie "Night Of The Living Dead" where in the end no one...

If college football fall ball is nixed ( and that is looking more and more possible) the NFL will likely play games on Saturday to go along with Sunday, Monday and Thursday games. To put it another way they would have to be complete fools ( or MLB representatives) to pass up that opportunity...

Dual threat QB (6'2" 200) Beau Pribula has committed to Penn State. As much as I disdain HC Franklin he hasn't completely remade the program into Florida State north. Still way to caste heavy but there are occasional bright notes in his recruiting. Pribula is an athletic QB with solid speed and...

Huge catch by the Georgia Bulldogs. 6'3" 235 TE Brock Bowers is a top tier athlete with blazing speed. Ranks among the best tight ends in his class. A game changer.

I was sitting on an uneasy fence regarding the season. No longer. I sense that all of CF will be called off. Spring ball is a maybe but too early to speculate on that and we don't know if the NFL will oblige them by shifting draft stuff around etc.. A new complication has arisen and I think it...

Flipping back and forth between the PGA I pretty much watched two full basketball games yesterday. The Spurs beat the Pelicans even though ageless JJ Redick went off for 31 points. Sir Chub A Lot Zion ( who I will admit is a nice guy) kept going in and out of the game due to conditioning. Yes...

Depending on the picture I found former Cal WR Vic Wharton a tough nut to crack. Then there is potential VP candidate Kamala Harris. If her mother was not Indian (the country) her complexion would probably be White. Below is a pic of her Jamaican dad. Champ probably takes the cake. His dad...

Been discussed here before and a badly needed "diversity" pick up for Kansas State whose 2021 commit class to date looked a little monochromatic (black). Not out of the question Langlois somehow becomes a cornerback? Pretty sure he is heading to the defensive backfield either way.

Crazy tournament. Morikawa joins elite company winning the PGA at the tender age of 23. He has a nice swing. By the way Morikawa's mom is Chinese. He is all Asian. I was surprised at how listless Tiger played. Very tentative. Justin Thomas didn't play all that well either even though he was hot...

I really feel bad for poor BYU the least likely team to spread COVID yet everybody is avoiding them. On the heels of the big news that they will open the season with Navy with the MAC shutting down it erases their scheduled game against Northern Illinois. So instead of seven games in the can...

My favorite all time Cornhuskers ranked in order. Notice it has been a while since these players left the program. Hopefully the "next" generation is waiting in the wings. 1-QB Eric Crouch 1998-2001 2-OLB Trev Alberts 1990-1993 3-DE Grant Wistrom 1994-1997

Zach Wilson (JR) 6'3" 215 BYU Nicked up last year he had an up and down season but still managed to throw for 2382 yards with 11 TDs and 9 interceptions. I would be shocked if he doesn't start and word is he had an impressive spring after a diligent offseason workout regiment where he gained 5...

Sadly Giorgi goes down in three hard fought sets. She came blasting out of the gate but the tide turned. What else is new with her? The US Open is scheduled to play in a few weeks and the French Open has been suspended until September. Like golf they will get in three majors. But of course a...

I am probably in the minority but I feel Maria is prettier than Anna K. In fact I never liked Anna. She cared more about how men viewed her than being a serious athlete. I recall an up and coming gal who some were comparing to Maria. Her name escapes me ( she was pretty tall) but she lost her...

I felt all along some non Power 5 conferences would succumb. Expect more. The Power 5 teams have more money and more resources to pull it off. Doesn't mean they are immune to defaulting either but they have a better chance of succeeding. On the FCS front the Big Sky ( which includes Idaho State...

TE Jack Nickel (6'4" 230) Notre Dame. Highly rated. Two fast running backs that are making some noise this summer. RB Dylan Smith (5'9" 185) ran a 4.48 40 at a recent camp. I think it was the fastest time there. Out of California. Put up big stats last year. RB Kade Frew (5'8" 170) attends...

Trying to find great White athletes with immense speed etc. feels at times like being out in a desert searching for water. On that note this past week has been one of the most frustrating for me because instead of striking gold (or water) I ended up seeing some sort of mirage. I am still in...
