According to Susan Miller Degnan of the Miami Herald, Drew Rosenhaus of Rosenhaus Sports Representation announced this week that he has signed University of Miami quarterback Jacory Harris and linebacker Sean Spence. Neither signing is surprising, as Rosenhaus has completely dominated with regards to recruiting at the University of Miami over many years. NFLDraftScout.com lists Jacory Harris as […]
The State of North Carolina and the NCAA have been busy fighting over access to documents regarding findings from the NCAA’s investigation of past NFLPA agent activity on the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill’s campus. On July 29, 2011, North Carolina’s Secretary of State Elaine Marshall issued a subpoena asking for said documents, which are apparently under the […]
Sponsored Post Small college players are continually out shined 300-to-1 by players from BIG Division 1FBS schools. The NFL National Scouting Combines invitees are almost exclusively drawn from D1 programs.

A few days ago, football agent Greg “Tripp” Linton of HOF Player Representatives wrote an article titled, Agent’s Corner: You Want the Truth, You Can’t Handle The Truth… The article starts with a familiar story to many sports agents in the business – a college coach having an under-the-table relationship with an agent – but a story that is rarely told […]
As I reported earlier today, Robert Quinn’s former agent Carl Carey, Jr. is suing Quinn, Quinn’s Business Manager, Impact Sports Football, LLC, and two of Impact Sports’ agents based on what I deem to be only two counts worth litigating – 1) tortious interference with contract and conspiracy; and 2) breach of contract. But the Robert Quinn drama […]
On July 1, 2011, Michael McAdoo filed a Complaint in North Carolina against the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill along with its Chancellor, H. Holden Thorp, and the NCAA. McAdoo was a football player at UNC until the NCAA ruled that he was permanently ineligible to perform in intercollegiate athletics based on McAdoo’s alleged receipt of $110 in improper […]
In early February 2011, former South Carolina Gamecocks tight end Weslye Saunders (who I have referred to as “Woeful Wes”) was told that he was ruled ineligible for the 2011 NFL Draft.
