Thursday Morning Odds & Ends 05/08/08

No UMass-specific news on the wires this morning, but still some stuff for you to contemplate.

This year's BCS/I-A game is with Texas Tech. Their coach Mike Leach, is a genius.

This could be good news for Matt Lawrence.

And this is bad news for potential NFL free agents (a lot fewer slots).

UPDATE: Not only is Mike Leach a genius, Red Raider WR Michael Crabtree is the top receiver in college football .

Key Quote:"MC: I'd say I'm like Jerry Rice with a little T.O., mix a little Chad Johnson in there, and top it off with a bit of Randy Moss. That's my game."
