DELI POLL: WEEK 2 TOP 25 AND HEISMAN WATCH

An NCAA Player Money Article

by Nicholas Cicale (@nickcicale) With the Johnny Manziel autograph controversy of the summer coming to an almost comical resolution (he’ll be suspended for the first half of the season… opener, even though the NCAA determined he didn’t get paid for signing autographs) on the eve of the college football season, I thought now would beContinue reading “An NCAA Player Money Article”

MVP 1. Tom Brady, QB Predicted Stats: 4600 passing yards, 39 passing TDs, 10 int It’s really, really hard to go against Tom Brady or Peyton Manning in the preseason for MVP, because come the end of the year you know they’ll be getting votes.
