Life after football calls for a new game plan
Life after football calls for a new game plan TAMPA, Fla. — Felix Jones, a 21-year-old first-round draft pick for the Dallas Cowboys, scored three touchdowns in his first few NFL games. Then his 2008 season ended because of a torn hamstring and a toe injury. He plans to be back next season, but in…

Shooting stars
Shooting stars STARKVILLE — With this Mississippi State team, it was likely only a matter of when, not if, the school record for 3-pointers in a game would fall. The way Arkansas was making its treys Saturday afternoon at Humphrey Coliseum, turns out that the Bulldogs would need every last one. MSU made 16 3-pointers…

Scarbinsky on Kiffin: ‘It’s tough to go through coaching puberty in public’ … and links! Scarbinsky: UT’s Kiffin needs to grow up, keep his mouth shut You have to be at least 35 years old to be president of the United States. There’s no age limit for SEC head football coaches. Maybe there should be.…

Melick: Seeing stars? Signing top-ranked players makes top-ranked college football teams
Melick: Seeing stars? Signing top-ranked players makes top-ranked college football teams Interesting, didn’t you think, that while Tennessee’s coaching staff was running its collective mouth about what a great job of recruiting they did this year, Alabama was getting its first commitment for 2010 – from a top recruit in Memphis? Especially since it happened…

Recruiting at Vanderbilt is a bit different
Recruiting at Vanderbilt is a bit different Scour the national recruiting rankings, and you won’t find Vanderbilt’s class anywhere in the Top 25. Heck, you’re lucky to find it in the Top 75, whatever that means. The Commodores won seven games last season and won a bowl game. That’s as many games as South Carolina…

Both sides frustrated with Leach contract process Monthslong communication between Texas Tech and agents for football coach Mike Leach show a growing frustration on both sides — including a rebuke to the agents from the chairman of Tech’s Board of Regents.

Lane Kiffin can fire up fans, but better not fire up rivals
Lane Kiffin can fire up fans, but better not fire up rivals Lane Kiffin seems like a smart, eager to learn, young football coach. If I were him, I would start hanging around Pat Summitt. He could absorb volumes from her, things he needs to learn if he is to become a successful head coach.…

Commentary: Recruiting shows its ugly side
Commentary: Recruiting shows its ugly side The “soft verbal” is a creepy term in the creepy world of the college football recruiting process. It adds to the sleazy nature of the beast that opens its voracious mouth every year on national feeding, er, signing day. It is part of the annual madness of greed and…

Kiffin’s mouth earns him a penalty
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=3887550&sportCat=ncf Man-made devices wouldn’t have been able to measure the size of Kiffin’s smirk. Problem is, Kiffin was spectacularly and laughably wrong. He was so wrong that Florida AD Jeremy Foley issued a statement that all but called 33-year-old Kiffin a punk. He was so wrong that SEC commissioner Mike Slive publicly attached Kiffin to…

Shaken, stirred, whatever … it’s all a Molotov martini for Kiffin
Shaken, stirred, whatever … it’s all a Molotov martini for Kiffin Al Davis spent Wednesday calling Lane Kiffin a liar. Thursday, Jeremy Foley called him an idiot. Aww, Laney old sock old shoe, you’re such a playful scamp. Kiffin, whose nose for news has been remarkable since the Oakland Raiders job landed inadvertently (and badly)…

Back Judge: Signing day adds stature to stacked SEC
http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/feb/06/signing-day-adds-stature-to-stacked-sec/ College football’s monster conference put a little more distance between itself and the country’s lesser leagues on national signing day. SEC schools inked more than a third of the nation’s most coveted prospects and signed nine of the top 20 classes in the nation according to Rivals.com. In a muscle-flexing, rich-get-richer demonstration unlike any…
