Here is a link to a story on The Detroit Free Press on the recent NCAA investigation on Michigan. Considering how Michigan has gone 3-9 and 5-7 under Rich Rodriguez, his already speculated hot seat has gone up substantially going into the 2010 season.

CollegeFootballNews.com: 2010 Big Ten Composite Schedule & Top Games

This article from collegefootballnews.com will help you with planning your upcoming fall weekend activities. I predict Ohio State @ Wisconsin will be a night game - Ohio State usually announces some of their kickoffs in the spring.

2010 Big Ten Composite Schedule & Top Games: "The Ohio State-Wisconsin battle in Madison will likely be the Big Ten game of the year, but it's not like each team doesn't have other major games to worry about. Check out the 2010 Big Ten Composite Schedule and Top Conference and Non-Conference Games."

The BCS Anti-Trust Playoff Solution

I enjoy reading Pete Fiutak of collegefootballnews.com. Below I found one of his articles that discusses how the BCS could potentially avoid intereference from Congress. Personally, I prefer MY solution (16 team playoff), but thought people may want to read through this article. Enjoy...

The BCS Anti-Trust Playoff Solution: "With Washington taking a look at the BCS, here's the easy solution to the anti-trust problem and what might have happened if it was always in place. Had the BCS gotten it right from the start, the 2004 fight between Jason Campbell's Auburn, Matt Leinart's USC, and Jason White's Oklahoma would've been settled on the field."

Good Luck In KC To Trip MacCracken

For those of you who may not be familiar with Trip MacCracken, Trip formerly worked for the Cleveland Browns as their salary cap administrator. Trip and I met while interning with the Washington Redskins back in 1996, and have remained friends ever since.

While I am sad to see a good friend and person leave the Cleveland area, I am happy that Trip will still remain in the NFL in his new position as Director Of Football Administration with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Trip, good luck and God Bless...

Ohio State's 2010 Recruiting Class: Puzzling Offensive Line Decisions

Before addressing my concerns over Ohio State's 2010 recruiting class, I want to congratulate the eighteen players who have signed with Ohio State. Ohio State had a limited number of scholarships this year, and I believe were able to secure players who will be able to contribute over the next few seasons.

Ohio State's offensive line recruiting is perplexing to me. While I respect the effort of trying to land players such as Seantrel Henderson, Matt James, and Morgan Moses, I question why Ohio State did not make signing other offensive linemen besides Andrew Norwell of Cincinnati Anderson.

For example - offensive tackle Skyler Schofner , offensive tackle Andrew Donnal, and offensive guard/center Christian Pace were not offered by Ohio State, yet all three are from Ohio and headed to Big Ten teams.

Considering Ohio State will lose Justin Boren and Bryant Browning after the 2010 season, it will make offensive line the top recruiting concern for the 2011 recruiting class.
