Perhaps, but it's also possible that we're reading too much into the NFL Combine. Regardless, there's little doubt as ... Continue Reading

This year's crop of tight ends doesn't boast the athletic, speedy tight ends in year's past, although there are a few that could fit the bill. However, outside of the top six, it's extremely arguable that an NFL team will find it difficult to get an upgrade over what they already ... Continue Reading

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Tuesday, December 8th 2009. Under NCAA Football Tags: Alabama, Colt McCoy, Florida, Mark Ingram, Nebraska, Pac-10, Pac-10 football, Stanford, Tim Tebow, Toby Gerhart

Toby Gerhart isn't your typical Heisman candidate. Then again, as a white running back playing in the Pac-10 and dominating even the best of defenses, he's not your "typical" anything. We could go on for days about the other four candidates going up against Gerhart for Saturday's college honor, but why ... Continue Reading

Posted By Eddie Griffin On Sunday, November 8th 2009. Under NCAA Football Tags: Alabama, Greg McElroy, Heisman Trophy, LSU, Mark Ingram, SEC

In the three games prior to yesterday’s showdown against LSU, Alabama’s offense had consisted of Mark Ingram, Mark Ingram, Mark Ingram, and very little else.
