Three years after the 2005 prospect signed to play for Ole Miss, the wait is finally over - Jerrell Powe is finally eligible to play football.

Here’s a few questions I just wanted to throw out there:

Today, Olin Buchanan at ESPN posted a really interesting question: Which conference is really the BCS weak link? His article refers to the ACC and Big East, who’s teams have struggled to compare to those in the Pac-10, SEC, Big 12, and Big Ten.
But let’s not forget that there are quite a few other Div-I […]

Earlier this week, I talked about the problem I had with spring recruiting. So, today when I read in the news that the Big Ten was proposing a new NCAA (or at least Big Ten) rule to prohibit recruiting for a two-week period, I was excited to read what they had to say.

No one is happy with the current BCS bowl system, and now there may be a new problem regarding the million lessor bowls - expensive. With travel costs on the rise and ticket rules creating problems, will schools even want to participate in bowls?
Financially, it doesn’t make a lot of sense for many teams. […]
