This week’s Q&A featured a question on first-year college football coordinators. Not included was the following gem from Bang The Book Radio’s Adam Burke, a topic deserving its own column. @kensing45 @cfbhuddle Who would be on the current "Mount Rushmore" of offensive & defensive coordinators? — Adam Burke (@SkatingTripods) March 16, 2016 This is 5 […]
Numerous head coaching changes around college football beget new coordinators in new locations. In this week’s CFB Huddle Q&A, I’ll give you my new coordinators set up for the most success in their first year. I also had a lot of fun envisioning a sixth power conference. A LOT of fun. Perhaps a little too […]
Conference Championship Week — excuse me, “Champ Week,” as ESPN has rebranded it — is afoot and leading us directly into Selection Sunday. For college basketball junkies, it doesn’t get much better than the week-and-change of tournaments played across the country. Conference tournaments have given us such memorable moments as the 2009, six-overtime classic between […]
Q&A makes its long-awaited* return with some great topics. Bob Stoops — who earned the “Big Game” moniker long before John Cena — main events a card also featuring a Pac-12 coaches battle royale. If you have a question for CFB Huddle Q&A, tweet @kensing45 or @cfbhuddle. * = debatable. @kensing45 @cfbhuddle Grade Bob Stoops […]
Former USC Trojans and San Diego State Aztecs wide receiver Brice Butler is our guest on the CFB Huddle Podcast. Brice talks with host Josh Webb about his NFL career, and his move from the Oakland Raiders to Dallas Cowboys.
Cal filling Jared Goff’s quarterback vacancy just become more intriguing. Zach Kline, the former 4-star prospect Goff beat out for the starting job in 2013, enters the fray. That on its own isn’t newsworthy; that Kline will be on his second stint with the Cal football program is. Originally a Jeff Tedford recruit, Zach Kline […]
Former NBA superstar Reggie Miller is no stranger to controversial comments and he’s back at it again, this time with the University of Southern California athletic program. Miller’s sister, Cheryl, was an all-time great for the Trojans from 1982-86. Her list of accomplishments could fill a room, and she was certainly a pioneer for women’s […]
As the final seconds of the 2015 Barclay’s Premier League season ticked away, supporters of Leicester City watched with glee as the Foxes punished the soon-to-be-relegated Queens Park Rangers by a score of 5-1. Though the day brought victory at home, it was the previous week’s road 0-0 draw that really sent the fans celebrating […]
Baseball season is right around the corner, with pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training camps in the coming week. Growing up a fan of the Chicago Cubs, springtime usually brings with it irrational exuberance, followed by almost immediate disappointment. But after a surprise run to the NLCS last autumn, I have realistic hope the […]
The 2016 Rose Bowl Game serves as an allegory for the ill-fated and now suspended presidential campaign of Carly Fiorina. Shortly after the former HP executive tweeted this: Love my alma mater, but rooting for a Hawkeyes win today. #RoseBowl — Carly Fiorina (@CarlyFiorina) January 1, 2016 The Hawkeyes gave up a 75-yard touchdown run […]
The Jim Mora-Rick Neuheisel kerfuffle seems to finally have bubbled to the surface, and this battle of Baby Blue vs. Black is painted in shades of gray. Jack Wang of the L.A. Daily News provides details of the media spat, which began with comments Mora made to Colin Cowherd Tuesday, and to which Neuheisel responded […]
Oregon running back Thomas Tyner’s decision to leave football and focus on his art and designs studies went somewhat overshadowed by USC athletic director Pat Haden stepping down. But the talented and unfortunately snake-bit Tyner deserves center stage one last time for a career in which he so often, willingly played a supporting role. The […]
To label college football recruiting an inexact science is patently false. That said, even the soundest of sciences have outliers. Recruiting journalism was met with a level of skepticism in its early days – I suspect largely because it was based almost entirely online, and the media old guard seemed to view the internet as […]
Outstanding letters of intent aside, National Signing Day 2016 nears its conclusion.
