The redshirt junior also overcame the NCAA's concussion recovery protocol by still managing to receive the 2015 Fall SEC Academic Honor Roll. Bowden called the defensive signals before his concussion and out tackled Zach Cunningham in 2014. This pair of inside

Redshirting, the epitome of unfair advantage, is vital in today’s competitive society. In Malcolm Gladwell's book ‘Outliers’, Accumulated Advantage refers to the early snowball effect set by a head start at a young age. Giving the redshirted child an advantage which continues to favoritise over time. Some may say redshirting does not benefit your child; however, redshirting, when done right, helps give your child an advantage and better resources towards his or her growth. Redshirting gives your

Around America today football is one of the most favorable sports among men. Football starts off for the youth with pee-wee and pop warner leagues. Most fathers aspire for their children to be great athletes. It would be a dream for a father’s child to be considered the greatest player in college football. The Heisman Trophy is given to the best player in college football. This award is given to players who show great athletic excellence along with great character. Most quarterbacks who receive

After last week’s madcap mayhem with Missy and devious deceptions involving Davros our team are off to the Highlands. In a seemingly deserted subaquatic base in Caithness circa 2119, to be specific, which is where the TARDIS has decided the Doctor is supposed to be, rather than the more daring chasing monsters and looking for things to ‘blow up’ on alien planets that Clara craves. There’s rather more going on than first meets the eye however, this is no ordinary underwater scientific post. There’s

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.--The loss of Dravon Askew-Henry left a huge void on defense for the West Virginia University football team but it opened a new opportunity for senior Jeremy Tyler. The 5-foot-11, 207-pound safety has always been good but someone has always been a little better. Now Tyler gets his chance to shine for the Mountaineers at the free safety position. "Jeremy has always been a guy that we have count on," defensive coordinator Tony Gibson said. "He’s been a player for three years and understands

got to continue to keep getting better." Gibson was referring to his "dawgs" performance against TCU. Despite holding the Horned Frogs to just 10 points, the Mountaineer defenders missed tackles and failed to create turnovers with the exception of redshirt senior cornerback Rasul Douglas' interception in the first quarter. "The one thing that I was disappointed in last week was the three turnovers that we got, only one of them was from our defense," head coach Dana Holgorsen said. "Rasul did a great

get deeper. The Beavers have lost starting QB Sean Mannion (3,164 yards, 15 TDs) and a vital part of the rushing tandem in Terron Ward (696 yards, 10 TDs.) to graduation. At the QB position, Coach Andersen has three freshmen from which to choose. Redshirt FR Nick Marshall might have a slight edge, but nothing has been settled at this point in time. In the running game, it looks like SR RB Storm Woods will get his chance to shine, coming off a decent season where he rushed for a team leading 766 yards

It is the ethical duty of a university to recruit student athletes not only to succeed in sports but to also provide a college education that will make them successful after graduation. Creighton University failed in fulfilling this duty by recruiting and admitting a student athlete that scored in the bottom fifth percentile of college – bound seniors who took the ACT. Kevin Ross filed suit against Creighton University for negligence and breach of contract for their failure to properly educate him

I narrowed my options down to three schools, the UCLA Bruins, the Purdue Boilermakers, and the San Diego State Aztecs. I wanted to follow in Luc Mbah a Moute’s footsteps and go to UCLA like he did, but then I would have to redshirt a year. Basically it means that I’d have to sit out a year so that I could develop physically and would have an extra year of college sports. I didn’t want to do that though. I was already big enough for the forward position, and I wanted to compete now. So even though

"Just to get better at our tackling, our scheme and just to get better at what we do on defense," redshirt junior Dravon Askew-Henry said. Working on the basics was also stressed on the offensive side of the ball. "Making sure we have the ball secure. There were a couple times we got loose with the ball in my opinion against Kansas," running backs coach
