Is it just me, or have an increasing number of college football teams misinterpreted when spring supposedly begins? The calendar says it's March 20, but more than half the nation's BCS schools open spring practice before then. Texas, Auburn and LSU did not even wait for February to end.
Here is a list of the top running back prospects. This list was compiled through a series of conversations with scouts, and through game tape evaluations.
The rankings for this week, straight up.
Tornadoes that roared through parts of Arkansas, Kentucky and Tennessee killed at least 23 people and injured nearly 100 more Tuesday night, authorities said.

If you happen to run into a member of the NCAA selection committee this week, be sure to shake his hand or pat him on the back. A few complimentary words would be nice, too. Considering how much flak these guys usually take this time of year, a rare acknowledgement of a job well done will undoubtedly be appreciated.
SPOKANE, Wash. -- USC has not been kind to Arkansas the last few years. The last two years the football team handed the Razorbacks back-to-back humiliations (combined score 120-31). The Trojans' 77-60 win tonight was more of the same, making the Hogs' unlikely trip to the tournament a short one. While Arkansas had a significant height advantage, they didn't take advantage of it. Taking coach Tim Floyd's keys to the game -- defense and rebounding -- to heart, the Trojans held the Razorbacks, 35 percent 3-point shooters, to 15 percent shooting from the arc. Most significantly, they outrebounded them 39-26, a stat that Floyd admitted surprised him.
1. The NCAA selection committee unveiled the brackets on Sunday evening. As of press time, the exclusion of mid-major stalwart Drexel still had Billy Packer inconsolable.
I've been compiling Selection Sunday bracket projections for SI.com for eight years, and this one was by far the hardest due to mass uncertainty at both the top and the bottom of the bracket.
Stan Heath was enjoying the spoils that come with being a winning coach at the SEC tournament. The Arkansas coach completed a quick television interview on the stage at one end of the court, then made his way back down the sideline and on toward the Arkansas locker room. His Razorbacks had just won for the third time in three days and he gave enthusiastic waves to the Arkansas sections on his way off the court.
Welcome to SI.com's real-time Bubble Watch. The following chart will be updated continuously between now and Sunday to reflect the results of the conference tournaments.
1. Hush that mushing: I was reading some of the Iditarod coverage Tuesday morning because, well, it was on SI.com's front page when I came to a realization. There is no sporting event that I could even plausibly enter that I would want to avoid more than the Iditarod. (The "plausibility" clause eliminates things like fighting for the heavyweight championship of the world.) I would much rather, for instance, enter an ultramarathon in Death Valley than the Iditarod, and not just because I have run two marathons and have at least an inkling that I might finish. Basically, I really hate the cold, and what sporting event is colder for longer than mushing 12-16 dogs for 1,150 miles across Alaska for 10-17 days? Consider Tuesday's news item that four-time champ Doug Swingley has withdrawn from this year's race after a fall left him with potentially broken ribs and a possibly dislocated thumb. Read further down the story and you'll note that Swingley scratched from the 2004 race because he suffered frostbite on h

I've always thought owning a home is a great investment for tax purposes, but I have yet to see the advantages. I've owned a home for five years now and pay between $6,000 and $7,500 a year in mortgage interest, but I don't seem to get much back at the end of the year. My refund is only about $200. Is owning a home worth it from a tax standpoint?
