Orange You Glad...?

After speculation over where former Duke point guard Greg Paulus would start his one-year collegiate football career, Paulus will simply go back to where he began.

A three-year starter with the Blue Devils, Paulus will enroll at Syracuse for graduate school in hopes of making the football team and competing for the starting quarterback job. He attended Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse for high school.

Paulus' move to Syracuse comes after he also met with coaches from Michigan and Nebraska and worked out with the NFL's Green Bay Packers.

If Paulus is granted a waiver from the NCAA, he will be able to challenge for the starting role immediately.

This means Penn State fans could get a chance to see Paulus in action when the Orange and Nittany Lions meet Sept. 12 in Beaver Stadium.

Looking Up Already
Teams in the MEAC in the FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) are already finding themselves behind in the standings.

Delaware State has been forced to forfeit its game against North Carolina A&T because a date couldn't be found to play a game this year.

The reason the Aggies get the victory is because the Hornets are scheduled to play Michigan at the Big House on Oct. 17. That was also the date the two MEAC programs were supposed to play.

It's still more than three months until the season gets underway, but NC A&T should be pleased it gets to match last season's conference win total in May.

The Roster

Mug

Matt Fortuna is a sophomore majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Collegian. He has previously covered the men's tennis, soccer and basketball teams. A traditionalist, he would like nothing more than to see Joe Paterno throw it back to his Brooklyn days and install the single-wing offense this season.

Mug

Nate Mink is a sophomore majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian and a 5-foot-10 sesquipedalian from Allentown who has tried to grow facial hair for 20 years. Sadly, he has been unsuccessful thus far. He is anxious to get a new driver's license in September and hopes the bartenders at Zanzibar in Ann Arbor believe he's 21.

Wayne Staats is a junior majoring in journalism and history and is a football reporter for the Collegian. He previously covered the baseball and women's basketball teams. He never made it far playing competitive football, unless Nerf football in grade school counts.
