08/11/22 - C Brett Neilon, rSr/2023, Southern California + More +   As USC players took turns sitting around fold-out tables at media day last week, each one seemed to have their own off-season accomplishments to brag about. "I lost six pounds of fat, gained five pounds of muscle," center Brett Neilon reported. "I was at like 10 [percent body fat] last year," rush end Korey Foreman said. "Now I'm going into five." The man at the center of these developments and the off-season regimen for USC is strength and conditioning coach Bennie Wylie. Wylie was always a key part of head coach Lincoln Riley's vision for USC. After spending four seasons together at Oklahoma, Wylie literally joined Riley on the private plane from Norman to Los Angeles without a contract, ready to leave his mark on the Trojans' new era. - Orange County Register rSr/2023 C Brett Neilon, Southern California News Source: Orange County Register Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

The Jefferson, Ga., native graded out over 85 percent in all 12 games and helped lead one of the nation's top offensive units. The Cardinals averaged 212.9 yards on the ground per game, while averaging 5.4 yards per carry, Overall, the offense finished the regular season averaging 450.2 yards per game and averaged 31.9 points per contest. - Louisville Football rSr/2023 OG Caleb Chandler, Louisville News Source: Louisville Football Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

08/10/22 - WR *Parker Washington, rSo/2023, Penn State + More +   Penn State is in desperate need of production at wide receiver with Jahan Dotson's departure for the NFL. The common line of thinking is that there will be a by-committee approach to make up for the lost receptions and yardage. However, there's a breakout candidate on the roster who has already proven what he's capable of in some of Penn State's biggest games last season. Wide receiver Parker Washington is dynamic with the ball in his hands and that's going to be the hardest part of Dotson's game to replace. The sophomore has the lower body strength to run through tacklers but can make opponents miss with relative ease when he has space. Not to mention, he had nine catches for 108 yards against Ohio State with Dotson on the field and then seven catches for 98 yards against Arkansas without him. Washington is unlikely to be as good as his predecessor, but he still has a golden opportunity to be the most valuable piece of the offense in 2022. - Centre Times rSo/2023 WR *Parker Washington, Penn State News Source: Centre Times Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

08/10/22 - DT Siaki Ika, rJr/2023, Baylor + More +   Defending Big 12 champion Baylor has been picked No. 10 in the USA Today preseason coaches poll. The Bears were among four Big 12 teams to make the poll, joining No. 9 Oklahoma, No. 11 Oklahoma State and No. 18 Texas. The Longhorns were the only Big 12 team to receive a first-place vote.

08/10/22 - ILB Bumper Pool, rSr/2023, Arkansas + More +   Arkansas is ranked 23rd in the preseason USA Today Coaches Poll that was released Monday. It is the first time the Razorbacks have been ranked in the preseason poll since 2015, when coaches ranked Arkansas No. 20 to open the season. The Razorbacks finished that season unranked following an 8-5 overall record, 5-3 record in SEC play and victory over Kansas State in the Liberty Bowl. Arkansas will open the season against Cincinnati, which is ranked No. 22 by coaches. The season-opening game in Fayetteville will be one of three Week 1 matchups involving a pair of ranked teams in the coaches poll, along with No. 5 Notre Dame at No. 2 Ohio State, and No. 3 Georgia vs. No. 12 Oregon in Atlanta. The Associated Press preseason poll will be released sometime later this month. The AP poll is the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette's poll of record until the College Football Playoff rankings are released in late October. - Northwest Arkansas Times rSr/2023 ILB Bumper Pool, Arkansas News Source: Northwest Arkansas Times Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

08/10/22 - WR D.J. Matthews Jr., rSr/2023, Indiana + More +   D.J. Matthews is one of the smallest players on Indiana's roster, but no one left a bigger void than the Florida State transfer when he suffered a season-ending knee injury at Western Kentucky in week four last season. Indiana brought in Matthews to fill the opening left by Whop Philyor as the next playmaker in the open field, and the 5-foot-11 and 160-pound Jacksonville, Fla. product was highly productive in a number of ways. Matthews caught 13 passes for 165 yards, returned four punts for 83 yards with a career-long, 81-yard touchdown against Idaho, and he rushed twice for 28 yards with a score. Indiana's offense was never a juggernaut in 2021, but in the first four weeks with the shifty Matthews on the field IU scored 119 points. They would only produce 88 points over the final eight contests without him. When Matthews went down in a heap on the turf at Western Kentucky as he recovered a muffed punt, in many ways the IU offense crumbled right along with him. That realization once again hit IU coach Tom Allen and his assistants this week as the Hoosiers opened fall camp in Bloomington. "After the first practice, the general consensus of the staff was 'wow, boy did we sure miss D.J. last year," Allen said on Friday via Zoom. "It really, really hurt us last year losing him. He didn't get to play very many games, so you kind of forget really how good he was." - Thedailyhoosier.com rSr/2023 WR D.J.

08/09/22 - FS *Ronnie Hickman, rJr/2023, Ohio State + More +   Over March and April, it left Knowles with a glimpse of the potential of Proctor, who enters his fifth season with the Buckeyes on the cusp of his biggest role. "He's a guy that can really change the game," Knowles said. "He's what we want at safety." Proctor, who was a part-time starter at free safety in 2020 before being sidelined for most of last season, is likely to be at another spot in the secondary. That's at the boundary safety position known as the "bandit," while Ronnie Hickman steps into the free safety spot as the "adjustor." Tanner McCalister, who followed Knowles in transferring from Oklahoma State, is the favorite to step in as the slot safety, forming the potential trio of starting safeties. The role for Hickman comes with a lot of responsibilities. Positioned in the middle of the field, he'll cover a lot of safety. And as the nickname suggest, he'll make his share of adjustments to the defense before the snap based on looks from the offense. Hickman said he is prepared for it after lining up in a safety-linebacker hybrid role a year ago. "It's just going out there and being the best teammate I can be for my brothers," Hickman said. "Just like they would do the same. I'm going to do that for them. So I don't really see it as a burden or something I got to carry or something like that. It's going out there and being a teammate with my guys." The three safeties are all veterans with Hickman preparing for his fourth season, and Proctor and McCalister in their fifth seasons. - Columbus Dispatch rJr/2023 FS *Ronnie Hickman, Ohio State News Source: Columbus Dispatch Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here

08/09/22 - QB Cameron Rising, rSr/2025, Utah + More +   One year ago, Utah's Cam Rising was still recovering from shoulder surgery and embroiled in a quarterback battle with Baylor transfer Charlie Brewer during fall camp. Brewer won the job but Rising eventually replaced him and led the Utes to the Pac-12 championship and a Rose Bowl appearance. Now, Rising is the Utes' undisputed starter, having earned All-Pac-12 first team honors after completing 204 of 320 passes for 2,493 yards with five interceptions and 20 touchdowns and running 74 times for 499 yards and six TDs in 2021. That aside, Rising is taking the same approach as he did during last year's fall camp. "It still feels like I have to go out there and prove myself each and every day. It doesn't really matter if it's my job. That just means I'll be getting more (first-team) reps. That's just the way it is," he said. "I've still got to attack it and prove that I'm the best guy for the job each and every day." That's why coach Kyle Whittingham has called Rising an "alpha dog" in the program. "He's one of the hardest workers on the football team, if not the hardest. You can talk about it but you've got to be about it," Whittingham said. "His performance is outstanding, his film study. Just everything. There's no weakness in Cam Rising right now. He's doing everything right coming off an outstanding year. We're fortunate to have him on our team." - Deseret News rSr/2025 QB Cameron Rising, Utah News Source: Deseret News Share/Comment/External News Feed: Here
