Campus Confidential

There's plenty of reasons Georgia Bulldogs fans everywhere are excited. They shouldn't need any more.

But with freshman wide receiver AJ Green already on campus, everyone's gotta be pumped about that.

Not only will he likely be ready to play for the national title contender this fall, he'll be learning under a pair of senior wideouts in Mohamed Massaquoi and Kenneth Harris.

Then again, they may be learning under him. Just watch.

While everyone in college football likes to get caught up in the Fulmer's Cup Standings, I figured I would give the Top 30 of the Directors' Cup -- given to the top overall performing athletic department.

No surprise with the winner -- It's Stanford's 14th consecutive Cup (it's been around for 15 years). And UCLA has finished runner-up for a third straight year. Pick it up, Bruins.

Anyone with the last name Holland reading this?

Have I got an offer for you...

Brandon Holland, a Virginia Tech offensive lineman, has put his Chick-Fil-a bowl ring for sale on eBay.

If you're a Chick-Fil-a fan, like myself, or a Virginia Tech alum, like myself, this could be a cool gift.

Or if your last name is Holland, you can pass yourself off as a Virginia Tech football player, assuming you're in your 20s. Trust me, it might work. In college I went to the Sugar Bowl (Virginia Tech-Auburn in 2005). For Christmas, I had gotten a VT warmup jacket. I spent much of the week as a strong safety hanging out on Bourbon St. Pathetic, but it was a good time.

One thing: It might be tough if you're 45 and telling people you played in the 2006 Chick-fil-a bowl.

One last question: Is Brandon selling this ring to fill up his gas tank like the rest of us, or is he selling off anything that reminds him of that painful Dec. 30 loss to Georgia.

How do we college football fans get through the dog days of summer?

We follow recruiting, forecast depth charts, follow the prospect camp schedule, count down the days until Summer Session I, etc.

How do coaches spend the dog days of summer?

Much of the same: Recruiting, depth charts, host camps, count down, etc.

But they also have to keep the alum and boosters jazzed up. One way is booster camps. Many schools will host fantasy camps. For a heafty fund, you can arrive on campus, receive your jersey and be a _________ football player for two days and learn from Coach ________ _________.

And many schools will host a women's camp. Generally a one day affair, women will show up on campus to grind through a football boot camp.

While Michigan cancelled their men's fantasy camp, they did host a women's camp two weeks ago. The money went to charity, and the group raised $101,500 for cancer awareness, which is great.

But I just wanted to share a moment from the camp. This camper clearly got her money's worth:

The camera on the right wrist is an interesting technique. If the camera has a video option, it's not a bad way to track how you're doing with your hands in the trenches.

Here's a picture from ESPN.com's college football home page.

There's nothing going on. Bruce Feldman wrote an interesting piece about the top 10 "freaks" in college football, LSU's Trindon Holliday being one of them.

Otherwise, I'll leave you with this.

I wish I had more to report, but alas, I don't.

I will say that Clemson locking up Tommy Bowden until 2014 is a solid move.

And those coaches I told you that went to see the troops, I didn't give credit to all of them.

The full list:

Notre Dame's Charlie Weis, Auburn's Tommy Tuberville, Jack Siedlecki of Yale, Mark Richt of Georgia, and Randy Shannon of Miami (Fla.).

Classy.

I sure hope Kimbo Slice is making a lot of money in MMA.

Because he missed the NFL linebacker boat.

Kevin Ferguson, better known as Kimbo Slice, stepped out of the YouTube world and entered the homes of America via CBS on Saturday night.

The 6'2, 240-pound monster gained notoriety by owning people on the streets of Miami. His brawls were captured by camera and posted on YouTube and ProElite scooped him up to anchor their fight cards. Saturday night I was fortunate enough to sit cage side to see Slice improve to 3-0 as a mixed martial artist.

I won't get into the Xs and Os of mixed martial arts, but you don't have to be an expert to see Slice is very green. Where I don't feel he would have been green is on the football field, however.

Slice has been listed as both 32 and 34, making him around the same age as Ray Lewis. Both Lewis and Slice have a few things in common, according to their bios:

1. Both Florida natives.
2. Both were standout defensive players in high school.
3. Both attended the University of Miami.

However, Slice didn't play football at UM -- he was there on an academic scholarship. Had it not been for Hurricane Andrew, which wiped out his senior season, Lewis and Slice could have been part of the same linebacking corps. Scary to think about.

Care to see what slice can do?

Strengths: Great form. Explosiveness. Follows throw. Tackles with the body. Finished the hit. Punisher. Solid anticipation of the route.

Weaknesses: Awareness -- could have intercepted the ball.
