What’s the future for Cuonzo Martin?

If Hue Jackson cared about HBCUs, he wouldn’t have hired Art Briles
Deion Sanders banned a Black reporter from covering his program. Eddie George had to be convinced by a white man to take a job at a Historically Black College and University.

Auburn keeping Bryan Harsin, this should totally work out well
For better or for worse, Auburn is saving themselves from throwing $18 million down the drain (for now), announcing Friday that Bryan Harsin will remain the Tigers’ head football coach into the 2022 season.

The NFL knew Alvin Kamara was a suspect in a Vegas police investigation before Sunday’s Pro Bowl, but let him play anyway

For several years now, whenever the 49ers have visited the Packers, they’ve stayed in Appleton, a 23-mile bus ride from Lambeau Field.

That’s a clown lawsuit, bro
The Jacksonville Jaguars were a joke long before this season. They’ve made the playoffs seven times in their 27-year history, and four of those were in the first five seasons of their existence.

Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas is my college football team to be good
The idea of getting back to a previous, dominant form is antithetical to moving forward.

Oregon gets whooped
You could feel an Oregon loss coming at some point, and did it ever come on Saturday night in Salt Lake City, a 38-7 thrashing by No. 23 Utah which means that for the fifth straight season, the Pac-12 will not have a representative in the College Football Playoff....
