College Football’s 10 most explosive players
College Football’s 10 most explosive players Don’t scoff at 4-yard gains. Three of them get a first down and keep the chains moving. But scoring a touchdown at that pace requires long drives, and those are practically obsolete today. Spread offenses and wide-open passing schemes are geared toward creating big plays – or “explosive” plays,…

Adams: Hamilton stands tall in Kiffin’s corner
http://www.govolsxtra.com/news/2009/feb/15/hamilton-stands-tall-in-kiffins-corner/ Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton was convinced he had found the right football coach when he hired Lane Kiffin after the 2008 season. He’s even more confident now. Maybe you don’t share that confidence. Maybe you’re concerned about a coach creating tsunami-size waves throughout the SEC before he has won his first game. But…

SEC spring bash may be must-see TV
http://www.al.com/sports/press-register/pfinebaum.ssf?/base/sports/1234865720130470.xml&coll=3 As part of ESPN’s new 15-year, $2.25 billion agreement with the Southeastern Conference, a little known provision includes live coverage of the league’s spring meetings in Destin — plus gavel to gavel broadcasting of the closed-doors sessions between the school’s 12 head football coaches. Well, not really. But can you imagine if ESPN had…

Bill Russell remains in total control
Bill Russell remains in total control PHOENIX – Blocked shots weren’t an official NBA statistic until the 1973-74 season, four years after Bill Russell had retired.

Recruiting fever still escalating
Recruiting fever still escalating There’s a tie for the title of most absurd development in sports in the last 10 years.
