Macomb, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Arkansas State assistant coach Kevin Corless begins his new duties as Western Illinois' defensive coordinator on Monday. Corless worked the last nine seasons at Arkansas State, the first seven as co- defensive coordinator and the final two as the sole coordinator who also was in charge of the linebackers and punt return units.

 

Prior to Arkansas State, Corless was an assistant coach at Northwestern State from 1995-2001 and at Montana Tech from 1986-95. He also worked from 1984-86 as a graduate assistant coach at Northwest Missouri State, his alma mater.

 

FCS players on the American squad are Furman offensive guard Ryan Lee and linebacker Kadarron Anderson, Liberty defensive tackle Asa Chapman, Southern wide receiver Jared Green, Eastern Washington senior quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell, Florida A&M kicker Trevor Scott, Cal Poly defensive end Matthew Singletary, Morgan State defensive end Zary Stewart, Hampton wide receiver Isaiah Thomas, Stephen F. Austin safety Ben Wells and Bucknell/Rhode Island safety Ahkiel White.

 

Northwestern State defensive back Jeremy Lane and Stephen F. Austin offensive lineman Georgia Bias also may play in the game.

 

"I'm very pleased to have Brian come on board," said Maryland head coach Randy Edsall in a statement. "He is a proven defensive coordinator at both the collegiate and professional level. All of his experience will help us move forward as we look for him to implement his aggressive style. He will also be a great addition to our recruiting efforts."

 

Before taking the position at Houston, Stewart had spent eight years as an assistant in the NFL. He was the Cowboys defensive coordinator from 2007-08 and joined the Philadelphia Eagles as a defensive special assistant in 2009.

 

Mobile, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - When Cal Poly senior cornerback Asa Jackson played his final game at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in November, he didn't know he would be returning this month. Jackson is the first Football Championship Subdivision player to accept an invitation to participate in the 2012 Senior Bowl. The all-star game is scheduled for Jan. 28 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium (4 p.m. ET, NFL Network).

 

Jackson was the first player in the history of the Great West Conference to be honored four times on the first-team defense, As a senior, he had 54 tackles (31 solo) with two interceptions, which he returned for touchdowns (52 and 100 yards), and seven pass breakups.

 

At the Senior Bowl, Mike Shanahan and the Washington Redskins staff will coach the South squad and Leslie Frazier and the Minnesota Vikings staff will coach the North.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.

Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.

El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.

MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. 

Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.

New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.

Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
