Report: NFL Agents Funneled Money To College Players

A big Yahoo report dropped today, presumably to ride/torpedo the momentum of SI's flawed Oklahoma State exposé. It claims that NFL agents and financial advisers funneled tens of thousands of dollars to five college players, including Alabama tackle D.J. Fluker....

Birdman's Suspended Tonight Against The Pacers, And That Is Bullshit

After Thursday's dustup between Heat forward Chris "Birdman" Andersen and the elder Hansbrough formerly known as Psycho T, the league allowed Birdman to finish out the rest of the game.

I Can't Stop Looking At These Photos Of Birdman And Tyler Hansbrough Ready To Throw Down

The Pacers Did Everything Wrong On LeBron's Buzzer-Beater

Look at that photo. That's not how iconic playoff game-winners are supposed to look.

Tennessee QB Tyler Bray Declares Early For Draft, Goes Undrafted

Bray did sign with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent, though. This draft was light on quarterbacks, maybe light on everything but the big guys, and that figured to be a good thing for Tennessee's junior quarterback.

Alabama Players Arrested After They Allegedly Concussed Two Guys And Robbed Them

It's hard not to respect Nick Saban. Not because he's a good coach or anything, but because he constantly reminds us of college football's rich history. Want physics-defying running backs who wow us for two years before flopping in the pros? He's got 'em. Want linebackers simply bigger and stronger ...

Illinois Shocks No. 1 Indiana On A Last-Second Layup

This is how you gain and then lose a No. 1 ranking in a span of five days. Illinois's Tyler Griffey's uncontested lay-up at the buzzer sealed a huge win over top-ranked Indiana, a game in which the Hoosiers were up 11 with 6:30 remaining. ...

Tyler Seguin Spent The Lockout Living In His Own Filth [UPDATE]

For most players who went to Europe during the lockout, it was just business: an opportunity to make a paycheck and stay in shape until the NHL returned. But for Tyler Seguin, it was something much more monumental: it was the first time in the young Bruins star's life he's ever lived on his own. And...
