The Pac-12 is known as a conference full of high powered offenses and that starts at the quarterback position. In 2014, the Pac-12 boasted Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota but the conference was very deep in QB talent. Cody Kessler, Brett Hundley, Sean Mannion, Connor Halliday and Anu Solomon are just some of the names […]

The planning stages started in 2007 with a Student Government survey but really kicked up in 2009 with an exploratory committee. After a long time in the making, the school with the third largest enrollment in the state of Georgia is about to field its first football team. In February of 2013, the Kennesaw State […]

For the last two years, Atlantic Coast Conference quarterbacks have been defined by one player: Jameis Winston. Winston was the biggest story on and off the field for the Florida State Seminoles and the conference. He helped bring a national championship to the ACC for the first time since 1999. This year’s crop of ACC […]

It’s fascinating to contemplate how much of a difference two years can make. 2013 was the year of the quarterback in the SEC. The conference was oozing with talent with names like Johnny Manziel, Aaron Murray, Zach Mettenberger, A.J. McCarron and Connor Shaw. 2014 was expected to be a down year for quarterback play in […]

Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect Oh, the NFL Combine, the version of a band touring 30 years after they retired and lost a few members to death and it sells out just because people are desperate for that music. Every year, it gets bigger, and every year, more people complain. It’s cold in Indiana. The […]

Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect In 1998, there was an “X-Files” episode in which David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson encountered a situation where some telemarketer basically saw his boss as a giant insect who was out to kill people. Duchovny’s character likened the situation to other assumed delusional people in the past who had similar […]

UCLA is in the market for a new defensive coordinator. Their last DC, Jeff Ulbrich, famously left for the Atlanta Falcons as quickly as he could after National Signing Day. Under the watch of Jim L Mora, the Bruins defense has seen continued improvement. They have risen in the Pac-12 Total Defense rankings every year […]

Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect Assuming Spring actually gets here for the majority of the country (30-degree temperatures in Alabama, snow in North Carolina, DOOM in the upper Midwest) and isn’t just some sort of cruel myth, college football practice will come with it. I motion at this point for it to be called “Extended […]

Follow TSS on Twitter @TheStudentSect There’s a line in Jurassic Park spoken by Jeff Goldblum’s character, Dr. Ian Malcolm, that goes, “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.” The same could apply to college football recruiting. Monday, Rivals rolled out to the public […]
Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino will get to coach against an SEC East team for the second straight game. He jumps from Kentucky to Georgia, and both games carry quite a lot of significance for the Cardinals. One was a rivalry game; this one is a little more personal, with UL defensive coordinator Todd Grantham being the center of attention.

Let’s say Johnny Five-Star is deemed the consensus-best football prospect in his home state after his sophomore season of high school. In the summer before his junior year, he gets the call he’s been waiting for his whole life. It’s Coach Seven-Figures offering him a scholarship to come play football at State U. Mr. Five-Star […]

Whether you follow recruiting or not, it’s likely that you’ve heard of the saga of high school linebacker Roquan Smith. On National Signing Day (NSD), Smith announced live on ESPNU that he was going to sign with UCLA. Then, before he had a chance to send in his National Letter of Intent (NLI), he heard […]

There’s a dark underside to just about every good thing in life. In the town with the fun, vibrant nightlife, it’s the unmarked club down a small alley where you need a password to get in; it’s the best restaurant in town, just as long as you don’t go in the kitchen and ruin it […]
