View From Bennett Avenue

This is always a weird time of the season for college football fans. There is plenty of withdrawal after weeks of non-stop action amidst the craziness of the last few weeks of recruiting. New staffs are being formed, players are deciding on pro careers and next season's schedule is being poured over for opponents to feast on. Alabama won again, which does not make a lot of people happy, and Heisman winner Robert Griffin announced that he was going pro after a stellar career in Waco.
Griffin, of course, had to come out. He has accomplished as much as could be expected as a college player both athletically and academically and has already been injured. No need risking that again. Plus it looks like a top ten pick awaits him. Good luck to him and to the wave of new players that will accept the mantle from stars like Griffin, Luck, Richardson, Blackmon and James.
