2009 Heisman Watch: The Case For Stanford’s 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 waste precious time? Why [...]
Charlie Weis and Tim Tebow: A contrast in circumstance
I don’t know Charlie Weis. I’ve never met the guy and likely never will. All I know of Coach Weis is what I’ve seen on television or heard in interviews, but he seems like a nice enough guy. I’ve never had any allegiance to either him or Notre Dame, the school that just fired him. [...]

2009 Heisman Trophy Watch (Week 12): Ingram closing in on history
1. Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama (1): Not only did Ingram log his sixth 100-yard game of the season, but after not scoring in Alabama’s last two games, Ingram got reacquainted with the end zone, not once, but twice, including a 70-yard scamper in the fourth that put the finishing touches on the Tide’s romp in [...]

Heisman Trophy Watch (Week 9): Well, someone has to be #1, right?
1. Kellen Moore, QB, Boise State: Moore leads the nation in passing efficiency and touchdown passes, is 10th in completion percentage, threw for five touchdowns in his last game, and has five games of three touchdown passes or more. And hey, his team’s undefeated and in the top five. I’m no Boise State bandwagon rider, [...]
2010 NFL Mock Draft 1.0: Round One
(Is Tim Tebow a first round talent?) In the wake of the Tennessee Titans horrible 59-0 defeat to the New England Patriots, as well as their fellow bottom feeding friends, Tampa Bay and St. Louis going 0-6, it’s time to take a look to the future. Whether you’re rooting for a team that’s still undefeated [...]
2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Oct. 6-10
1. Tim Tebow, QB, Florida: I wasn’t exactly for Tebow taking the field against LSU, but even though he didn’t exactly have a monster game, he did more than enough and even showed a little of the Tebow that we’re used to seeing. Last Week (13-3 W at LSU): 11-16, 134 yards, TD, INT, 17 [...]
Dominant defense, not offense, fuels Florida victory
As much as I was against Urban Meyer sending Tim Tebow out against LSU, I nor anyone else was the least bit surprised that he started for #1 Florida. Nor was I surprised that he was in the game the entire way. Given the short and long term risks of sending him out if he [...]
