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.
