Three questions for ... Kent Brown  (Saturday, March 20, 2010)

Who's joining the Big Ten?

Maybe nobody. At the end of the day, the decision may be made that there's no good fit. That's a guess. It's exciting because I think a year from now we could be sitting here knowing the landscape of the college athletic scene, especially the Big Ten, could be completely changed depending on how it works out. It's going to be an exciting time. It could be zero or it could be numbers unlimited.

Was the player the best defensive lineman during his era? Yes.

BCS chief bites back  (Wednesday, March 10, 2010)

BCS executive director Bill Hancock said Wednesday he will respond to a question-filled letter sent to him by two U.S. Senators.

"I'm looking forward to taking a longer look at the letter. I sure do think that Congress has more important things to do, with all the issues facing our country," Hancock said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "The BCS is fair. Access is fair. Revenue is distributed fairly. And frankly, we welcome the opportunity to tell our story every chance we get."
