Mike Leach's Return to football

Mike Leach, former head football coach at Texas Tech, was fired back in December for allegedly mistreated a player that was receiving treatment for a concussion. He has once again gained our attention in the college football world stating that he expects to come back to coaching in the near future. This is what's going to happen in my opinion if he goes back to coaching, they will embrace him and forget about the previous ordeal and maybe a year or two years down the road will find himself in similar trouble at his new school. Things like this cant be avoided when you turn into the bad guy. Things are bound to come out of the woodwork and nobody's going to be able to respect someone like him. Things that are supposed to be left in the locker room will leak out into the media which will end up getting him in trouble again. This will also most likely happen to a player that might not get the best treatment on the team or get the most playing time due to "politics" in football. They will do anything they can to be able to get their coach in trouble just because their talent doesn't exceeds anybody else's. This is unfortunate for Leach because he probably is a great coach, but with this incident he might not be able to say what he wants to say or be who he wants to be because it might come back and bite him where it hurts. I wish the best of luck for him, but things can get ugly out there for him.

Tim Tebow to the Draft

Florida quarterback Tim Tebow was told to change his release when throwing the football in order to make it to the next level and play quarterback. Listen, he did great at Florida, I don't see why he wont do good in the pros. Not to mention he has changed his release in only 5 weeks of working on it. If you give him 5 weeks to totally change his throwing release, think about what you can do with him over a 2 year span on a professional team. Everyone can just relax about how he's not fit for the league because he clearly has the drive and mental toughness to make changes in something he's been doing his whole life. He is fit for the league, he will get drafted, and he will play Qb one day and be successful.

Michigan Hosts Night Game in 2011

The University of Michigan will host its first night game against Notre Dame in 2011. This will be Michigan's first time having a night game at Ann Arbor which will bring a different kind of atmosphere to the stadium, which is under renovation at the moment. Michigan has a lot to be excited about for the next two years in this recent announcement. Die hard fans will most likely have tickets for that game before this 2010 season is even over!
To be honest, I never knew that this would be the first night game at Michigan. But then again, come to think of it, I've never watched a home michigan game at night. This may come to a surprise for a lot of fans such as myself, like why they never had a night game before? They're one of the most storied college football teams ever. It's pretty amazing that a storied program like Michigan is still able to make history for its program which will bring more fans and money to the school.
