12/15/21 - FB Clint Ratkovich, rSr/2022, Northern Illinois + More +   2021 ALL-MAC THIRD TEAM (COACHES): Running Back - Clint Ratkovich, Northern Illinois,...Listed as a fullback, Ratkovich showed his versatility - and speed - with a 96-yard touchdown run versus Western Michigan, the second-longest touchdown run in school history. He leads NIU with 13 touchdowns, 11 rushing and two passing. "I'm so happy for Clint because his value to our offense can't be measured in statistics," Hammock said. "I'm glad Clint was able to get recognized for his contributions to our team because it's not going to show up in the stat sheet." - Northern Illinois Football rSr/2022 FB Clint Ratkovich, Northern Illinois News Source: Northern Illinois Football Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/14/21 - DT Otito Ogbonnia, Sr/2022, UCLA + More +   Top UCLA defensive lineman Otito Ogbonnia announced Monday on Twitter that he would forgo his final season of eligibility to declare for the NFL draft, potentially leaving a big hole for the team during the Holiday Bowl game later this month. A senior with one extra season of eligibility remaining because of the COVID-19 extensions granted to every player, Ogbonnia did not specifically mention the bowl game but intimated that he would sit out to "focus on my rehab for an injury that I've played with most of the season and begin my draft preparation. This has been one of the hardest decisions I've had to make, but I'm proud to say that I played in every football game in my time here at UCLA." Ogbonnia was the team's most productive defensive lineman last season, recording 30 tackles - including five for losses and two sacks - in addition to two quarterback hurries, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. He was also the top chef on the team who routinely cooked a smorgasbord of delicacies for his fellow out-of-state teammates during Thanksgiving week. - Los Angeles Times Sr/2022 DT Otito Ogbonnia, UCLA News Source: Los Angeles Times Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/14/21 - QB Hendon Hooker, rSr/2023, Tennessee + More +   Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker will have an encore. After a standout debut season, Hooker will use his final year of eligibility by returning to the Vols as a super senior in 2022. "Looking forward to many more. Let's run it back," Hooker posted on Twitter on Sunday. Even with coach Josh Heupel signing his first recruiting class Wednesday, Hooker's announcement represents the biggest news for UT's 2022 roster. The Virginia Tech graduate transfer climbed the UT record book in his first season, and he ranks third nationally in passer rating. Hooker's return means the Vols may not miss a beat in 2022 from their frenetic pace in Heupel's first season, when they ranked ninth in scoring offense (38.8 ppg) and led FBS in plays per minute. And it also stabilizes UT's quarterback situation. Four-star prospect Tayven Jackson plans to sign with UT on Wednesday and enroll in January. He can now learn behind Hooker for one season rather than compete for the starting job with backup Joe Milton or potential transfers. - Knoxville News rSr/2023 QB Hendon Hooker, Tennessee News Source: Knoxville News Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/12/21 - OLB Damone Clark, Sr/2022, LSU + More +   2021 ALL-SEC FIRST TEAM (COACHES): LB Damone Clark, LSU,...A Baton Rouge native who prepped at Southern Lab, Clark had a breakout season for the Tigers, leading the LSU defense in nearly every statistical category. In addition to his 135 tackles, Clark recorded team highs in tackles for loss (15.5), sacks (5.5), turnovers created (4), and forced fumbles (2). Clark's 15.5 tackles for loss are the most by an LSU player since 2012 when Kevin Minter recorded 15. It also ranks as the second-highest total in LSU history for a linebacker, trailing only Michael Brooks, who had 16 in 1985. He added an interception and a fumble recovery to go along with three pass breakups and a pair of quarterback hurries for one of the most complete seasons for a linebacker in school history. - LSU Football Sr/2022 OLB Damone Clark, LSU News Source: LSU Football Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/11/21 - CB Josh Jobe, Sr/2022, Alabama + More +   After wide receiver John Metchie was lost for the season because of a torn ACL, Alabama will be down another starter for the College Football Playoff. Cornerback Josh Jobe underwent foot surgery this week and is expected to miss the remainder of the season, On3 Sports reported Thursday. Rivals.com reported the surgery was on Jobe's toe. Kool-Aid McKinstry and Jalyn Armour-Davis, who missed the past two games with a hip injury, would presumably serve as Alabama's starting cornerbacks for the Cotton Bowl against Cincinnati on Dec. 31. - Birmingham News Sr/2022 CB Josh Jobe, Alabama News Source: Birmingham News Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

Andrew Vorhees, USC's top-rated offensive lineman last season, will return for a sixth season, offering the Trojans an important anchor along a front that could be in flux this offseason. "There is still more that I want to accomplish this coming season." - Los Angeles Times rSr/2023 OG Andrew Vorhees, USC News Source: Los Angeles Times Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/10/21 - CB Tommi Hill, Sr/2025, Nebraska + More +   The Arizona State football program has had a lot of depth in the secondary the last two years, but that is taking a hit as true freshman Tommi Hill announced on social media he intends to transfer. Hill was a primary backup this season and saw some time on special teams. With the Sun Devils graduating veteran cornerbacks Chase Lucas, Jack Jones and Timarcus Davis, Hill likely would have contended for a starting spot come the spring. The 6-foot, 205-pounder totaled nine tackles in 11 games. - Arizona Daily Star Sr/2025 CB Tommi Hill, Nebraska News Source: Arizona Daily Star Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

12/10/21 - WR *Drake London, Jr/2022, USC + More +   Southern California receiver Drake London has declared his eligibility for the upcoming NFL draft after three seasons with the Trojans. London was named the Pac-12's offensive player of the year this week after racking up 88 catches for 1,084 yards and seven touchdowns despite playing in only 7 1/2 games for the Trojans. He broke his right ankle in a game against Arizona in late October and missed the rest of the season. "I cannot wait to get started on the next chapter of my life," London wrote in a message on his Twitter account. "I will forever be a Trojan and cannot wait to represent the best brotherhood in the NFL." Before his injury, London was one of the nation's top receivers for the Trojans, producing five games with at least 10 catches and six games with at least 130 yards receiving. He joined Texas Tech's Michael Crabtree in 2007 as the only Power 5 conference players with at least 88 receptions through eight games of a season. London became one of the most prolific receivers in USC's rich history at the position after he stopped moonlighting with the Trojans' basketball team and concentrated on football. London arrived at the school as a two-sport athlete, and he played basketball briefly in early 2020. - AP College Football Jr/2022 WR *Drake London, USC News Source: AP College Football Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here
