Well, at least we can start things off right with six cool and refreshing college football stories from here and there.

Charles Barkley: Johnny Manziel better player, AJ McCarron better leader, then talks Saban, Malzahn

"I think you guys know I'm a big Nick Saban fan. I respect greatness."

Wyoming Reveals Photos of New Field Turf

The University of Wyoming has released photos of their new field turf at War Memorial Stadium.

Last June, Meyer was full of questions about his first Ohio State team and about his family’s adjustment after moving from Florida. The Buckeyes, of course, went 12-0. His wife, Shelley, and son, Nate, also adapted well.

NCAA rules prohibit coaches from having direct involvement in their players’ preparation for the season during the summer. But head strength coach Mickey Marotti keeps Meyer informed.

“About injuries and attitudes, absolutely I keep tabs on it,” Meyer said. “Every coach in America does. You can’t be there, but I’m there [mentally].”
