The Paper Chase - May 11, 2010

Craig Haley of The Sports Network is back at it, slipping his ranking of FCS quarterbacks past me last week. It’s a pretty impressive list, headed by Stephen F. Austin’s Jeremy Moses and featuring NAU’s Michael Herrick and Cameron Higgins of Weber State. Craig didn’t pick an honorable mention, but I have to think Montana’s Justin Roper and Andrew Selle and Drew Hubel of Portland State each received strong consideration. I’m also a hopeless homer, but I fully expect Cody Kempt to be on or near this list at season’s end.

Dan Angell continues his look at Big Sky men’s basketball recruiting classes with two-time defending league regular season champion Weber State.

Portland State wrapped up Nigel Burton’s first spring on the Park Blocks with its Green-White game on Saturday.

Will Holden is already wondering about MSU’s quarterback situation.

Tom Shatel is one of the best local sports columnists in America, and has been offering wit and wisdom at the Omaha World-Herald for many years. Tom writes that while the “non-denial denials” by Nebraska and the others linked to the Big 10 yesterday by Kansas City radio station WHB remain plausible, it’s also likely that some contact has occurred which could lead to more formal proceedings.

Whenever an athlete is severely injures or dies while participating in his or her chosen sport, it hits close to home. The Missoulian provides a touching look at the life of former Missoula Sentinel standout Dylan Steigers, who was killed during spring football drills at Eastern Oregon last weekend. Thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends.

Sacramento State landed more front-line help in junior college forward Zach Nelson.
