The Citadel player in critical condition after practice collapse
Daniels, a freshman fullback, had emergency surgery to relieve pressure on his skull Tuesday night, according to the Post and Courier. He collapsed near the end of practice, according to the university.
The Citadel’s initial statement said Daniels was in “stable” condition. An MUSC official said Wednesday that he’s in critical condition.
“DaSean is an outstanding young man from a great family,” said Citadel coach Mike Houston. “The entire Citadel football community is praying for him and his family. He is an important part of The Citadel and our football family. We’ll support DaSean and his family during this difficult time.”
Daniels was a redshirt in 2014 and went to high school in the Atlanta-area. He's listed as a linebacker on The Citadel's roster and recently switched positions.
The Citadel is a member of the Southern Conference in FCS. The Bulldogs played Florida State last season and this year play South Carolina and Georgia Southern.

From Gossip, Fast Fashion, Female Lifestyle, Sex & Love: CollegeCandy » College Candy - Mindy Kaling Does What Any Of Us Would Do At An Oscars After Party – Take Free Stuff LSU QBs Harris and Jennings know they need to improve in 2015
LSU QBs Brandon Harris and Anthony Jennings know they need to play better in 2015. Though playing much worse would be tough to do.
While Jennings got most of the run at quarterback in 2015, the pair combined to complete less than 50 percent of their passes for just 2,063 yards. As a team, the Tigers were 114th in the country in passing and averaged 163 yards per game. LSU was the worst passing team in the SEC.
While freshman RB Leonard Fournette broke out as the season went on, the lack of a downfield passing threat hindered LSU's rushing attack. With Fournette back to lead the rushing attack, LSU's chances of swiping the West from Alabama and also staying ahead of a reloaded Auburn and a rebuilt Texas A&M team hinge again on its quarterback play.
"I wasn't good enough last year, plain and simple," Jennings said via NOLA.com. "I have to get better. We have to get better as a unit. I'm not surprised they're talking about it.
"It's going to push me to do more things. I like everybody talking about it. It's going to make me better, Brandon better, [incoming freshman] Justin [McMillan] better. As the team is getting better we'll use that as fuel."
After a quarterback battle that, at least publicly, went up to the week before the season-opening game against WIsconsin in 2014, the two are in the same situation entering 2015. Each has an opportunity to win the starting job.
Jennings initially won it in 2014 and Harris got an opportunity to start against Auburn after he was 11-14 passing for three touchdowns against New Mexico State. The Auburn game was a disaster. Harris was 3-14 passing for 58 yards.
Harris didn't play in the last three games of 2014 and in January, his high school coach said in a radio interview that he advised his former QB to leave LSU. Instead, Harris stuck it out and has a shot to start again. Maybe this time LSU coach Les Miles will pick a starter based on one's excellence.
"Last year I would be the first one to tell you I didn't know the ins and outs of things I needed to know," Harris said. "Now, going into my second spring, I'm so much more comfortable getting on the same page. I'm not having to have anybody tell me, the right tackle, I've called the wrong play or this and that. I'm more comfortable.
"I played a lot as a true freshman, which is unheard of at quarterback here. I'm looking forward to the spring, continuing to grow mentally and physically and just mentally as a person becoming a better leader."

Report: Iowa QB Jake Rudock to transfer
Iowa QB Jake Rudock won't be returning in 2015.
Per Fox Sports, Rudock has decided to transfer and could possibly visit Michigan. He's a graduate transfer upon graduation in May and would be eligible to play immediately at his next school.
QB Jake Rudock, who started 2 yrs at #Iowa, is transferring. He will visit #Michigan next wk,source told @FOXSports. As a grad, is elig. now
— Bruce Feldman (@BruceFeldmanCFB) March 11, 2015 When Iowa released its depth chart in January, just less than a week after its TaxSlayer Bowl loss to Tennessee, C.J. Beathard was listed as the starter over Rudock, who got the majority of playing time in 2014.
Rudock, a junior in 2014, was 213-345 passing for 2,436 yards, 16 touchdowns and five interceptions. Those are numbers that many teams wouldn't comlain about. Beathard, a sophomore, was 52-92 passing for 645 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions.
Both quarterbacks saw time in the 45-28 loss to the Volunteers, but Beathard played considerably more. He was 13-23 passing for 145 yards, two touchdowns and an interception while Rudock was 2-8 passing for 32 yards. Rudock started the final game of the regular season against Nebraska (a 37-34 loss) and was 19-38 passing for two touchdowns and an interception. It was his first game not above a 50 percent completion percentage since a win over Pitt in September.
According to HawkeyeReport.com, Rudock's transfer situation has been brewing for some time. The site posted in February that Rudock hadn't been working out with the team and was instead working out with the seniors whose eligiblity was up after the 2014 season. Plus, the team had been notified that Rudock wasn't returning.
Michigan has an opening for another experienced quarterback in 2015. Shane Morris is a junior, but the quarterbacks behind him are young. Former Houston QB John O'Korn announced he was transferring to Michigan in February, but O'Korn will have to sit out the 2015 season.
