The key to winning in the Fantasy College Football game is finding (and hoarding) those coaching comments, sidebar references, and teammate blurbs about those players who are making “heads turns” in their debuts. Here are some of the early names that have popped out recently from Pre Pro Sports.

If you look at the last post on fumbled.org you will see that Patrick Nixon of Ed H. White High School, FL, tried to rush his high-school education to become a NCAA corner back 1 year early. Should there be a rule in place making it so situations like this can be prevented? Altheltes are being texted by College football recruiting Scouts when they are in 9th grade. Com’on! That’s just rediculous.

The NCAA needs to step up and address this recent evolved issue and throw some guidelines to the league and intercollegiate sports programs. Don’t you agree?

Patrick Nixon has committed to the  Illini over other college football recruiting programs such as the defending champion Florida Gators, the Daily Herald reports. He attempted to graduate from high school one year early and become part of Illinois’ Class of 2007, but he could not keep up the pace and he will have to remain in high school for the full duration.

The University of Oregon is scheduled to travel to Boise State at the start of the 2009 season, instead they may be headed to China for the season opener, reports SI.

It’s an idea right now. They’re not sure, and we’re not sure, if it’s even feasible.”

Back on March 12th, RB Jermie Calhoun gave the Sooners a college football recruiting verbal commitment for 2008. He was just recently quoted in a press conference on July 6th stating “I’m so happy to be a Sooner, and I’m glad this process is over where I can focus on my spring semester, and getting my goals accomplished at Van High School.” He has turned down the following schools who were looking to possibly recruit him; LSU, Alabama, Florida, and Nebraska.

He is currently ranked #4 in ESPN’s Top 150 College Football Recruiting Rankings.

With the addition of Brady Quinn to the roster, and mostly likely the starting QB position; the Cleveland Browns hope to turn around their demoralizing QB losing streak with a little luck from the Irish.

The Browns, who have lost at least 10 games in each of the past four seasons and have just one winning record since ’99, landed perhaps their franchise tackle and QB that could possibly take the Browns to the playoffs in December.

The Browns didn’t pass up a second chance at drafting the Notre Dame quarterback, who before he wore the Fighting Irish’s famed golden helmet, strapped on the plain orange one of the team he rooted for as a kid.

“In the end, it worked out the best way possible,” Quinn said.

“Believe it or not, he and Javarris James are kind of like butt buddies.”

Was a remark made by Miami Hurricane Coach Randy Shannon during a press conference when he was asked about Graig Cooper and Javarris James. “Butt Buddies?” If you check out Urban Dictionary.com you’ll see what all of the controversy is about. Check out the source! Way to go coach!

He also mentioned that all starting positions are “open” for this season.

On Saturday the Trojans recieved verbal  commitment from No. 3-ranked WR Brice Butler (Norcross, Ga.). (WR | 6’2″ 178).

ESPN states that the Trojans are leading the college football recruiting for the most ESPN 150 commitments for the Class of 2008.  Someone needs to step up and knock them off their horse. Teams need to become more agressive when it comes to College football recruiting. Who has the talented staff that could compete? Is there any body??

If you prefer college football with a Southern flavor, the table is set for a great meal. The recipe for the 2007 season features a generous sprinkling of the Southeastern Conference, a dash of Southern California and a pinch of the nation’s southernmost team. -ESPN-
