Who are the top home-run threats in college football?
Earlier this year, Rivals did a feature on the 10 most explosive players in college football.

2009 NFL Draft Prospect Rankings – Safeties (4/20)
1. Louis Delmas (Western Michigan) Very productive and a hard worker. A solid wrap-up tackler, who also is known for delivering some big hits.

What’s next for Mississippi State after Croom’s resignation?
For the past few days, I’ve been mulling over writing an article about Sylvester Croom’s resignation at Mississippi State, but I figured it’s about time to break my silence. I’m sad to see Croom go, to say the least. I felt like he had a long future in Starkville, and it’s a shame that things [...]
Texas tabs D-coordinator Muschamp as Brown’s successor
With defensive coordinator Will Muschamp set to be a target for some of the nation‘s top programs, Texas has made quite the pre-emptive strike by giving Muschamp a raise and naming him as the head coach-in-waiting. Muschamp has been mentioned as a candidate for the head coaching vacancies at Clemson, Tennessee, and Washington, and there’s [...]
