ESPN announced Tuesday its 16-game slate for the annual college basketball 24-hour marathon. It’s safe to now call this an annual tradition, 2015 being its sixth year, and it’s grown to be a highlight for me as a college basketball fan. The 24-hour marathon doesn’t officially open college basketball season — there are games throughout […]
Alabama running back Bo Scarbrough may be “ahead of schedule” with his injured knee, but the Crimson Tide won’t have the 5-star running back available until the fifth game of the season, AL.com’s Matt Zenitz reports.

On Monday, CFBHuddle.com unveiled its picks for the preseason Group of Five All-American team. It’s the defense and special teams turn, and one thing is abundantly clear: I think highly of the defenses at Boise State, Louisiana Tech and Utah State. Not coincidentally, all three are teams capable of competing for their respective conference championships, […]
Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher made what seemed like the only logical choice Monday, dismissing quarterback De’Andre Johnson after video of the talented freshman punching a woman surfaced. But given Oklahoma’s reinstatement of Joe Mixon, Johnson’s dismissal wasn’t necessarily a slam-dunk decision. Johnson’s attorney issued a non-apology apology Monday shortly after media outlets picked […]
A variety of publications offer their preseason All-American teams this time of year. Each has its own leanings, evident in their individual selections, but it seems that, universally, the Group of Five is neglected. Consider Colorado State’s Rashard Higgins.
