Rolando arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest in his hometown, yet again

according to this article Freshman running back D. Henry fractured his tibia in the last scrimmage but should be healed by the fall.

Now, I'm not about to make a 90-minute Youtube video with spooky music trying to convince you there's some sinister conspiracy (although the Loose Change puns would almost make it worthwhile), but how is this not a conflict of interest? Maybe this is typical, and it's only because of higher scrutiny on the NCAA that this is newsworthy. All the same, the optics aren't great.

I'm not a ravens fan, but I am pretty excited to see how Ro, Upshaw and Cody will do there together. I really hope Ro can turn things around, seems like he came unwound a bit out there in Oakland.

Basically, this author's take is that the Notre Dame LBs failed to adjust to pre-snap movement (either as a result of complicated changes to the defensive scheme for this game or key players being distracted by off-field concerns), giving Alabama huge advantages in the run game. Regardless of whether you agree with the conclusions (or even like the blog), it's a well done write-up.

For some reason I couldn't stop smiling while reading this...
