Iowa WR Tevaun Smith breaks Odell Beckham's one-handed catch record
A day after former LSU receiver and current New York Giant Odell Beckham Jr. set the Guinness world record with 33 one-handed catches in 60 seconds, Iowa receiver Tevaun Smith beat it.
In a video released on the Iowa football Twitter feed, Smith managed an astounding 41 one-handed catches in 60 seconds, shattering Beckham’s record.
Both players set the record while standing 10 yards away from their passer.
.@TevaunSmith goes for @OBJ_3's one-handed catch world record and snags 41 in a minute! #GoHawks #Swarm2015 http://t.co/BnLBmRNutP
— Hawkeye Football (@HawkeyeFootball) January 30, 2015 So does that mean his automatically the new Guinness record holder?
Well, not exactly.
According the Guinness World Records website, in order to officially hold the world record — and get the same fancy certificate Beckham now boasts — Smith would need to apply for the record, wait at least six weeks for a response and then follow a set of guidelines, have witnesses sign that they saw him do it, send in the video and signatures and then have the whole thing verified by a Record Adjudicator. The entire process could take several months.
Or, the school could pay to fast track the service, which would cost about $700 or it could pay for a Record Adjudicator to come to campus, time and witness the record and provide a fancy framed certificate on the spot. That, also, would cost the university money.
So, despite Smith’s best efforts, he might be the one-handed catch world record holder in the eyes of the Internet, but Beckham Jr., still has the fancy framed certificate and all the publicity.
Still, that doesn’t take away from an awesome feat, and who knows, perhaps Iowa will make apply for the certificate. It would be a cool piece of memorabilia to hang up in the football facility, and it would be a nice way to recognize Smith, who caught 43 passes for a team-high 596 yards for the Hawkeyes last season.
According to the story on the Guinness World Record website regarding Beckham’s record, the Record Adjudicator, Alex Angert, noted that the duo of Beckham and New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees were hampered by the fact that they didn’t have enough footballs. Angert asserts that if there were more balls, the duo might have completed three or four more passes, a record that still would have been toppled by Smith.
Oh, and if you’re wondering what the original record for one-handed catches in a minutes was? It was 10.

Brady Hoke no longer a candidate at Central Michigan
Hoke was in talks with Central Michigan about its head coaching vacancy, but is no longer considered a candidate because, as Mark Snyder of the Detroit Free Press put it, “it was not a fit between the two sides.”
Central Michigan found itself unexpectedly looking for a head coach after Dan Enos left to become the offensive coordinator at Arkansas on Jan. 22.
Hoke spent the past four seasons as the head coach at Michigan before being fired on Dec. 2.
Hoke would have been a catch for the Chippewas because of his background and success in the Mid-American Conference. Hoke was a Western Michigan and Toledo assistant in 1984-88 and Ball State's coach in 2003-08. He led Ball State to a 12-1 season in 2008.
Hoke will try his hand at broadcasting next week when he works with CBS Sports Network on National Signing Day.

Bret Bielema would have been the Miami Dolphins coach if they had drafted Russell Wilson
Following the 2011 college football season, Bret Bielema almost left Wisconsin to become the head coach of the Miami Dolphins.
According to a story ESPN.com’s Elizabeth Merrill, Bielema was working out his plans for the Dolphins when he asserted that the team should draft Russell Wilson in the second round.
The idea of selecting a 5-10 quarterback in the second round, which is where Bielema thinks they need to, does not go over well. They think he's crazy.
"One hundred percent," Bielema says.
"They all looked at me like, 'You can't say that. That's the difference between college and pro. He's undersized. He can't throw.' I was like, 'OK, all right,' and I honestly, that day, kind of pulled myself out of it."
Bielema stayed one more season with the Badgers before leaving for Arkansas. Wilson was drafted in the third round by Seattle and has led the Seahawks to one Super Bowl title and one yet to be determined.
Just imagine if Miami had listened to Bielema, hired him and taken Wilson in the second round instead of Ryan Tannehill with the No. 8 overall pick? That move would have affected the fortunes of two NFL teams and two college teams all because Bielema believe in Wilson’s talent.
But the real question is, what do we all think about Bielema in the NFL?

Arian Foster says he took $40,000 to $50,000 at Tennessee, then tweets he didn't
This wasn’t the first time Foster, now a running back with the Houston Texans, had claimed he was paid in college. Back in 2013, Foster told Sports Illustrated he had been “getting money on the side” while in school, but he did not specify how much.
“You have people help you out here and there,” Foster told The Dan LeBatard Show. “Boosters and alumni and ex-players, they all know how it is, man. It's hard living check to check when you don't have enough money to go out to the movies or any kind of leisure activity. And you're not allowed to get a job. Especially when I was in college, they were a lot more stringent on those rules, so at any given chance I got the opportunity, I took a free handout. Absolutely.”
Foster also claimed he met his wife, Romina, through an agent. He said the agent was trying to sign both students as Romina was singing in a girl’s group. Foster said the agent took the two out on a boat in Chattanooga to “wine and dine us. It was definitely illegal by NCAA standards.” Foster did not end up signing with that agent.
However, on Friday, one of Foster’s former teammates, linebacker Ryan Karl, linked to Foster’s interview on his Facebook page and called out his former teammate.
“So Arian Foster I gotta call you out here,” Karl wrote. “You’re my boy, but you did not get $40-50k from boosters while at UT. Shoot, you were as broke as me in college driving a crap car living in a crap apartment - like us all. Also, these claims of being wined and dined by agents is a big stretch too. You are a baller now but at the time, you were a risky pick with who ended up being a free agent. Quit trying to grab attention while throwing your school under the bus.”
Not surprisingly, Foster even started to backpedal on his comment, claiming on Twitter that he never received the amount of money he claimed.
Vol fans, it was a joke. I didn't get no where near 50k.
— Feeno (@ArianFoster) January 30, 2015 Whether Foster was joking or not, it is important to note that Foster has stuck with his story since 2013, even if he’s not being entirely truthful about the amount.

Fowler, a defensive end, was one of Florida’s leaders on defense in 2014 as he registered 60 tackles, 15 tackles for loss and 8.5 sacks.
Overall in his career, Fowler had 140 tackles, 33.5 tackles for loss, 14.5 sacks, two fumble recoveries and five forced fumbles.

Seahawks players think you regular people don't understand the difficult plight of the student-athlete
The NCAA isn’t one of the most well liked entities in sports and apparently, that dislike made it to the podiums of Super Bowl media day.
Seattle Seahawks defensive back Richard Sherman and defensive end Michael Bennett railed against the NCAA when asked about the treatment of college athletes, the demands on their time and whether or not they should be paid.
"I think the NCAA is one of the biggest scams in America," said Bennett, who went to Texas A&M. "These kids put so much on the line. They [the NCAA] say, 'We give you a free degree.' That's like me owning a restaurant and saying, 'I'll give you a free burger.' It makes me so mad and irate. Universities need to do more for the student-[athletes].”
Apparently, Bennett had not been informed that the NCAA’s five major conferences — the ACC, Big 12, SEC, Pac-12 and Big Ten — last week adopted a plan to not only pay for the tuition, room, board, books and fees of student-athletes, but also various costs of attending college, including personal expenses and transportation.
And either had Sherman, who spent a part of his media session railing against the lack of understanding regarding the time demands on student-athletes.
"I don't think college athletes are given enough time to take advantage of the free education they're given," Sherman said. "It's frustrating because a lot of people get upset with student-athletes and say you're not focused on school and not taking advantage of the opportunity you're given.
"I would love for a regular student, for just one semester, to have a student-athlete schedule during the season and show me how you balance that. Show me how you would schedule your classes when you can't schedule classes for 2 to 6 o'clock on any given day.
"Show me how you're going to get all your work done when you get out [of practice and meetings] at 7:30 or so and have a test the next day and you're dead tired from practice and you still have to study and get the same work done."
Sherman, who told the reporter he appreciated the question before going on his 640-word rant — the longest answer he gave all day — also noted that despite all the time invested in the sport, student-athletes didn’t have enough money to enjoy what little free time they did have.
"And people are upset that student-athletes need a little cash," Sherman said. "I tell you from experience that one time I had negative 40 bucks in my account. It was in the negative more times than positive. You have to make a decision whether you put gas in your car or get a meal.
"People say you get room and board and they pay for your education. But to [the school officials'] knowledge, you're there to play football. Those are the things coaches tell you every day. Luckily I was blessed to go to Stanford, a school primarily focused on academics. But as [former Stanford coach] Jim Harbaugh would attest, we were still there to play football."
This isn’t some new argument, but it is becoming a tired one. Sherman graduated Stanford with honors and took full advantage of everything his education had to offer. But he — and every other student-athlete — knew exactly what he was getting into when he signed on to be a student and be an athlete. It’s demanding, but it does come with a free education, and quite honestly, it’s not too much different from a student who gets a scholarship, but has to maintain a high GPA to keep it. Athletes are only required to keep a 2.0 GPA. So while Sherman paints this picture of keeping his nose in a book for 90 percent of his college career, there are plenty of athletes who take full advantage of their free education by doing the bare minimum while making sure to attend every party possible.
Bennett, who again, has been far too busy with preparing for the Super Bowl to keep up with college news, has a plan to compensate college players for their time.
"I think the NCAA should come up with a plan for college athletes to receive some of the money they bring into the schools,” Bennett said. “My school, Texas A&M, I think makes $50 million just on jersey sales. So I would say pay $60,000 [to student-athletes] for every year you stay in college. Keep that in a 401(k). After you graduate, hold that money until you are a certain age and then you get the money."
OK, this plan is absurd and unrealistic and $50 million on jersey sales? What? Colleges would go broke if they tried to pay EVERY student-athlete $60,000 a year in addition to the basics of tuition, room, board, books, etc. Most college students don’t make $60,000 in their first job, but the third-string linebacker, who doesn’t see the field in two seasons, should be making $60,000 a year? OK.
Look this is a much longer argument for another forum, but shelling out more $2 million yearly for student-athletes on top of the other millions that are already shelled out for collegiate basics would put most programs in the red.
While several student-athletes, such as former Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, have painted a rosy picture of college athlete life — Winston claimed that he didn’t need more than the scholarship he was given — Bennett painted a deplorable picture of athlete life during his time at A&M, which is why the steep compensation would be the only solution to making athletes feel better.
"I think there are very few schools that actually care about the players," Bennett said. "Guys break their legs and they get the worst surgery they could possibly get by the worst doctors with the worst treatment."
Yeah, that Dr. James Andrews guy, who did Braxton Miller’s shoulder and many other major collegiate surgeries, is the worst.
"They don't understand," Bennett continued. "When I was in college, I was going to class and some student came up to me and said, 'I'm paying your tuition.' I said, 'You don't pay my damn tuition. My mom paid that when she worked two jobs and I woke up every morning at 6 a.m. and worked hard.' Student-athletes don't get enough credit.”
So today, when you’re out and about on a college campus, hug a student athlete. Apparently, they need it.

UCLA's Jim Mora tweets photo of recruit, claims to be hacked, deactivates account
Jim Mora does not appear to be very Twitter-savvy.
The UCLA head coach deactivated his account following his handshake fiasco with Kansas State coach Bill Snyder at the Alamo Bowl. However, earlier this month, Mora’s Twitter account resurfaced.
It didn’t last long.
On Thursday, Mora accidentally tweeted out a photo of five-star guard Maea Teuhema, an LSU commit that Mora is trying to flip to UCLA. BruinsNation.com was able to get a screenshot of the tweet, which featured Teuhema photoshopped into a Bruins uniform.
Mora presumably attempted to send the photo to Teuhema via direct message. Instead, the photo was visible to be seen by his thousands of followers. It’s also an NCAA violation.
To explain the gaffe, Mora took a familiar route and said his account was “hacked.”

FSU QB recruit Deondre Francois claims he was 'hacked,' did not decommit
Deondre Francois, the top dual-threat quarterback in the country according to Rivals.com, tweeted Thursday afternoon that he decommitted from Florida State. However, a few minutes later, Francois mysteriously deleted the tweet and left Seminoles fans scratching their heads.
Things got weirder when an assistant at Francois’ school, IMG Academy, told a reporter, Jacksonville.com’s Richard Johnson, that Francois did indeed decommit from FSU. The tweet with that news soon disappeared too when Johnson reached out to IMG Academy head coach Chris Weinke (yes, that Chris Weinke).
Just spoke to Francois' HS coach Chris Weinke, he has NOT spoken to Francois yet. "we're still trying to gather information"
— Richard Johnson (@RagjUF) January 29, 2015
Weinke says he does not know yes or no if Francois has decommited from FSU.
— Richard Johnson (@RagjUF) January 29, 2015
"he does not speak for the program" is what Weinke told me RT @Austin_Reier: @RagjUF what happened to the OL coach that confirmed?
— Richard Johnson (@RagjUF) January 29, 2015 And then after all of that, nearly three hours after Francois’ initial tweet, the quarterback re-affirmed his commitment to the Seminoles and said his account was hacked.
I apologize for the inconvenience. It was a mistake. My Twitter account was hacked. I am still 100% committed to FSU #Tribe15
— Dirtie (@Deondre_3) January 29, 2015 Ah, that notorious Twitter hacker strikes again.
Francois is the No. 39 rated player in the class of 2015, so it would have been a big loss for Florida State’s class.
As it currently stands, the Seminoles’ class is ranked No. 4 in the country by Rivals behind Clemson, USC and Alabama. Of course, those rankings can always change as the recruiting cycle comes to a close with National Signing Day on Wednesday.

Report: BYU to count as Power 5 team for future ACC schedules
Now, BYU will reportedly meet that requirement for the ACC.
Last year, the ACC announced that the Cougars would not count as a Power 5 opponent, but according to ESPN’s Brett McMurphy, the league has changed its stance.
BYU has played in a bowl game in 10 straight seasons under head coach Bronco Mendenhall, so, per McMurphy, “the ACC believes games against BYU would help the league’s overall strength of schedule.”
There’s more too it than that, however.
From McMurphy:
The reason for the change was because three of the four remaining Power 5 leagues (Big 12, Pac 12 and Big Ten) play nine conference games or will be going to nine conference games, meaning fewer non-conference opportunities, a source said.
Virginia is the only ACC team to currently have future matchups scheduled with BYU – at Virginia in 2019 and at BYU in 2023. The teams also played in 2013 and 2014 with each team winning once.
Like the ACC did last year, the SEC does not count BYU toward its Power 5 scheduling requirement (which begins in 2015). According to McMurphy, an SEC spokesman said “the SEC’s stance toward BYU has not changed.”

Eastern Washington QB says he scholarship offer to transfer to Oregon
According to the Spokane Spokesman-Review, Vernon Adams Jr., a record-setting quarterback at Eastern Washington, has been offered a scholarship by Oregon and will visit the school this upcoming weekend.
Adams has not committed to leaving Eastern Washington, but the offer from the Ducks is understandably enticing.
“I’m not saying I’m leaving Eastern, but I’m just going to check it out and see what they have to say,” Adams said.
Adams, who has thrown for 10,438 yards, 110 touchdowns and 31 interceptions in three years, said he will fly to Eugene on Friday and return to EWU on Sunday. He told the Spokesman-Review that he first spoke with Oregon coaches, including head coach Mark Helfrich, late last week.
He fits the Oregon mold of a mobile quarterback. In addition to his gaudy passing stats, he also has 1,232 rushing yards and 11 scores in his career.
If he were to transfer to Oregon, he’d have just one season of eligibility remaining and could play immediately after graduating in the spring. He’d enter a quarterback competition full of inexperience. The Ducks return last season’s backup Jeff Lockie, along with Morgan Mahalak, Ty Griffin and Taylor Alie. Additionally, Rivals.com four-star recruit Travis Waller, the 49th-best prospect in the country, is expected to sign with the Ducks on National Signing Day.
Of course, there’s no guarantee the 6-foot, 190-pound Adams would win the starting role.
“I’m not going there to be a walk-on or a second-stringer,” he said. “But if I do go down there, I’m going to work my butt off.”
Eastern Washington has gone 35-8 with Adams as a starter (including a win over Oregon State and a narrow loss to Washington), so the draw of chasing an FCS title could also draw him back to the Cheney, Wash., campus.
“Just the family I’ve made here and the people. I love it in Cheney,” Adams said.
Even if he doesn’t transfer, he’ll play in Autzen Stadium in 2015. Oregon opens its season against the Eagles in Eugene on Sept. 5.

Watch Wisconsin RB Dare Ogunbowale's awesome trick kick (Video)
Based on this video posted by Dare Ogunbowale, it appears that Wisconsin would still be in good hands if kicker Rafael Gaglianone ever went down with an injury.
Ogunbowale, a redshirt sophomore who moved from defensive back to running back during the 2014 season, showed off his impressive kicking skills in an Instagram post earlier in the week.
Watch this:
I don’t know if I’ve ever really seen anything like that. He flips the ball up with his right foot and then generates a spin with his left foot. He then takes a few steps back and drills what looks to be a 25-yard field goal with plenty of room to spare.
The 5-foot-11, 188-pound Ogunbowale played in all 14 games for the Badgers in 2014, registering 10 total tackles while also running for 193 yards and a touchdown on 34 carries.
It wouldn’t be a surprise to see him on the kicking depth chart next season.

Oklahoma reportedly postponing stadium expansion
Oklahoma's $370 million stadium expansion project is on hold.
According to SoonerScoop.com, the economic climate (oil prices) have caused the OU president David Boren to table the project for the time being.
Sources tell us the reasons behind the postponement are “market related.” That has mostly to do with the current economic climate where oil prices have fallen drastically and stockpiles have built up to record highs in the U.S.
Another source told SoonerScoop.com that the current climate makes stadium expansion “unrealistic” at this point in time.
Bob Stoops’ Sooners are also coming off one of their most disappointing seasons in his 16 years in Norman after losing to Clemson 40-6 in the Russell Athletic Bowl, and the fundraising arm of the university has had difficulty securing financial commitments for new stadium suites which were to be a part of the new renovations.
A large portion of the revenue stream the university needed for the renovations were going to come from the selling of those suites.
Administration members, contractors and architects have been informed of the decision.
The project was set to close in the stadium to form a bowl. A covered upper concourse was to be built on the south side of the stadium as well as the new suites mentioned above. In addition to those features, space for the university was to be added to the north side of the stadium.
The university is reportedly going forth with its plans for a new Residential College, a project which is being funded by $80 million worth of bonds.

Oregon DL Sam Kamp won't return for fifth season
Oregon defensive lineman Sam Kamp won’t return to the field for his fifth season in 2015.
The 6-foot-4, 290-pound Kamp recently finished his redshirt junior season with the Ducks and had one more season of eligibility remaining, but he announced Tuesday night that he’s moving on. He also confirmed the decision in a text message to The Oregonian.
“I'm incredibly blessed to have made so many amazing memories playing for this team. I'm so grateful to God, to my loving family and close friends, to my coaches, trainers and support staff who together are better than any other program in the nation, and especially to my teammates who I've spent a seriously ridiculous amount of hours grinding with,” Kamp wrote on his Instagram account.
“This season has been a once in a lifetime experience and even though we didn't finish with a win, it was an unforgettable finish to my athletic career.
