For the first time in the history of the AP Poll, three ACC schools ranked in the top five. Mack Brown, the Head Coach of UNC, has orchestrated an excellent turnaround since taking over the program in 2019. UNC's WR duo of Dyami Brown and Dazz Newsome have been pivotal to the success of the program this season. In this article, we'll look at both 2021 NFL Draft-eligible wide receivers. Additionally, we'll examine where these two receivers might be draft in April.
Over the summer, we published this scouting report on Dyami Brown. The former four-star recruiting prospect, through three...
There's a phrase in the NFL that rings especially true today, as many believe that the league stands for 'Not For Long'. On Wednesday, Washington head coach Ron Rivera announced that quarterback Kyle Allen would be the starter moving forward. As a result, Dwayne Haskins, the team's first round pick from the 2019 NFL Draft, was moved from first to third on the depth chart. Whether Washington has a long-term starting quarterback on their roster, or if they'll be looking for one in the 2021 NFL Draft, one thing remains clear - the organization must find a franchise quarterback....
The first domino fell on Monday as the Houston Texans relieved Bill O’Brien of duties. Following the 2013 season, in which the Texans fires Gary Kubiak as head coach, the organization brought in O’Brien as the franchise’s third head coach. However, following a 52-48 record, O'Brien was fired as head coach and general manager, a role that he was given to start the 2020 season. With the Texans franchise now in the market for a new head coach and general manager, expectations must be kept low as the rebuild process begins. In this article, we'll breakdown what the Houston...

Last season, we saw a breakout performance from Wake Forest wide receiver Sage Surratt. In his redshirt sophomore season, Surratt fought 66 balls for 1,001 yards and 11 touchdowns. Mind you, this was only through nine games as Surratt suffered an injury to his right shoulder that required surgery. Today, Sage Surratt announced that he would opt out of the Wake Forest season, citing covid-19 uncertainties, and begin preparing for the 2021 NFL Draft.

Last November, citing concussions, Oklahoma tight end Grant Calcaterra announced that he was stepping away from football.

Today, with the 2020 College Football season scheduled to start in a month and a half, Grant Calcaterra has announced that he'll be returning to football.

Within the past week, several conferences, including the Big Ten and Pac-12, have opted to alter their collegiate schedules. The coronavirus pandemic remains a fluid situation, so it's no surprise that the season won't be played as originally scheduled.
On Friday, Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren announced that the Big Ten would play a conference-only schedule in 2020. By doing so, this will grant the conference some much-needed flexibility in scheduling should an outbreak occur. As is the case now, the league could potentially suspend play for several weeks. Should they do so, they'll still hit the same target for...
The disappointment of not getting chosen during the 2020 NFL Draft is something that will stick with former LSU tight end Thaddeus Moss. Some have speculated that missing the 2018 season due to injury, coupled with a recent foot surgery, might have been why Moss’s name, despite its Hall of Fame pedigree, wasn’t among the 255 called during the draft.
In a video conference on Wednesday, Moss described his experience as “a slap in the face.” He wasn’t among the record-tying 14 LSU Tigers selected during April’s draft, and noted it was particularly insulting to see “kickers and punters and...
