College Football Tidbits

Just a few random pieces of relevant College Football news I thought I might share with you guys...

  • This year's mid-season Cinderella story, USF, has scheduled an away game at Notre Dame in 2011. This adds to a non-conference schedule that already includes Miami in several seasons. However, not everyone is entirely satisfied despite the $1 million dollar payout.
  • FSU's former recruiting coordinator and tight end coach John Lilly finds a new job in Athens. This isn't expected to impact FSU's stellar incoming class.
  • Kirby Freeman officially has his new home in Baylor. There was a question as to whether or not he would have to sit out his final year of eligibility due to transfer rules.
  • Top QB prospect Matt Barkley commits to USC. Barkley was the Gatorade National Player of the Year...as a junior. He is the only player ever to accomplish that feat.
  • And finally, I came across this post on Sunday Morning Quarterback. It makes an excellent read (though lengthy) and works well with my 3 posts on the 2003, 2004, and 2005 UM classes.
