• A ranking of the top 100 players in college football that includes Benardrick McKinney and Chris Jones.
• Former MSU football player Devin Jones was named the Professional Indoor Football League (PIFL) Defensive Player of the Year yesterday. Great work, Devin!
• Our friends Robbie and Joel cover everything from commitable offers to the CL's Dak Prescott story on The Blitz today.
• MSU is trending up with recruiting experts on where Jackson standout Malik Newman will land.  247's Jerry Meyer talks on BSR why he was one of those predicting Newman would stay in-state.
• Dan Mullen went through the annual "ESPN Car Wash" run yesterday in Bristol, Connecticut.  HailState.com gives you the rundown.  Here's Mullen on College Football Live:

• Logan Lowery on Seth Heck's journey to becoming one of the best shortstops in the SEC.
• And last but certainly not least, MSU Men's Basketball released today its 2014-15 non-conference schedule.  State has beefed things up with a roster that has improved drastically since two years ago when Rick Ray came to campus.  This could be a make or break year for State.
