  At FIU, defensive tackle Teair Tart is one of those players who could have used a pro day to better showcase his skills. Instead, Tart - who led FIU with 12 tackles for losses last year - performed a "virtual" pro day in which he said he ran a 4.9 in the 40-yard dash with a 31-inch vertical leap, impressive numbers for a man who is 6-3 and 302 pounds. So, where does Tart expect to get selected when the draft begins Thursday? "I think I'll go between the fourth and sixth rounds," said Tart, hoping to be one of those draft surprises who can make an NFL general manager look smart. "It would be great to hear my name called. "[If not], I will live with it. I just want an opportunity." Tart is one of several ex-FIU players who hopes to get drafted this week, a list that includes quarterback James Morgan, cornerback Stantley Thomas-Oliver and middle linebacker Sage Lewis. In the lead-up to the draft, Tart worked in Connecticut with trainer Rob Mangino and agent Viral Keshwala. Among other things, Tart did pilates and yoga to improve his flexibility. - Miami Herald

  Cornerback Stantley Thomas-Oliver, who competed in the East-West Shrine Game in January and ran a 4.48 in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine in February, has been getting extra attention from the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers. Both of those teams have conducted video interviews with Thomas-Oliver, who could be a late-round selection during this year's NFL Draft, set for April 23-25. "I've been getting a lot of positive feedback," Thomas Oliver said. "A lot of teams look at me as a developmental player since I've only played cornerback for two years. They believe I can play special teams while I continue to develop as a cornerback, gaining as much knowledge as possible."

Thomas-Oliver was a wide receiver until FIU coach Butch Davis moved him to cornerback for the 2018 season. That turned out to be a genius move as Thomas-Oliver started the final 11 games of FIU's 2018 season, leading the team with 10 pass-breakups. He had seven tackles, four pass-breakups and one interception that year in a breakout performance against Western Kentucky. This past season, Thomas-Oliver started all 13 of FIU's games, leading the team with eight pass-breakups. He ranked sixth on the team with 54 tackles, and he also added a pair of sacks, making second-team All-Conference USA. He scored a late invitation to the East-West Shrine Game, playing that contest "with a chip on my shoulder," he said. - Miami Herald

  So far, such teams as Green Bay, Tampa Bay, Las Vegas, Miami, New England, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Buffalo, New York Jets and New York Giants reportedly have shown interest in the 23-year-old Morgan. That's because the 6-foot-4, 230-pound Morgan is a prototypical NFL quarterback. Just ask Marshall University fans. The Thundering Herd managed to defeat Morgan and his FIU teammates in 2018 and 2019, but it wasn't easy. Marshall won 28-25 in 2018 at Miami and 30-27 in overtime last season in Huntington. In 2018, Morgan struggled vs. the Herd, completing 21 of 33 passes for 177 yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions.

But, although he fought some nagging injuries in 2019, Morgan played well in the rain and cold at Joan C. Edwards Stadium last November. The FIU star completed 21 of 37 passes for one touchdown and one interception. The interesting part about Morgan is he actually began his collegiate career at Bowling Green in 2015. Morgan was the Falcons' starting quarterback as a redshirt freshman in 2016, but midway through the 2017 season he was replaced by a young quarterback whose name is very familiar to West Virginia University fans - Jarrett Doege. Doege, of course, transferred to WVU, started the Mountaineers' last four games in 2019 and is the odds-on favorite to be WVU's starting quarterback next season. - Charleston Gazette

  Florida International's James Morgan led two first-quarter scoring drives and Charlotte's Benny LeMay rushed for two touchdowns to lead the East to a 31-27 victory in the East-West Shrine Bowl on Saturday. LeMay's 9-yard TD run with just under two minutes remaining sealed offensive MVP honors for the 5-foot-8, 216-pound running back in the nation's longest-running college football all-star game, which was played at Tropicana Field.

Morgan started at quarterback for the East and shared playing time with Princeton's Kevin Davidson and Mississippi State's Tommy Stevens, who led his team downfield for the winning TD after the West took a 27-24 lead on James Robinson's 63-yard scoring run. Robinson, who rushed for 1,899 yards and 18 touchdowns for Illinois State this season, finished with 80 yards rushing on seven attempts. He gained an additional 56 yards on two pass receptions, one a 46-yarder that led to a field goal. - AP College Football

  South Florida has hired Clemson co-offensive coordinator Jeff Scott to become the Bulls' next head coach. The school announced the move Monday. Scott is expected to remain on staff with No. 3 Clemson throughout its College Football Playoff run. The 38-year-old Scott is a Florida native and the son of former South Carolina coach Brad Scott. He played and has spent most of his coaching career at his alma mater, working under coach Dabo Swinney. Jeff Scott was hired as wide receivers coach by Clemson in 2008 and quickly became recruiting coordinator, too. He was elevated to co-offensive coordinator in 2015, though quarterbacks coach Tony Elliott has handled play-calling. Scott has been part of two national championship teams. USF is replacing Charlie Strong, who spent three seasons with the Bulls and had decreasing win totals every season. USF went 4-8 this year. - AP College Football
