The 6'6", 255-pound recruit took his unofficial visit on campus yesterday, and apparently that was all he needed to make his decision. We saw [URL='https://twitter.com/NunesMagician/status/611586090772795392']some rumbling on Twitter[/URL] from the coaching staff. And then, shortly after, Brouse [URL='http://www.At their request, this network is being blocked from this site./college/syracuse/story/1555856-syracuse-lands-offensive-tackle-brouse']verbally committed to Syracuse[/URL] today. Syracuse was one of just two FBS scholarship offers for Brouse (the other was Old Dominion), though he did have a host of FCS offers, as well as big interest from bigger schools like West Virginia, Penn State, Pitt and Vanderbilt, among others. He's currently unrated, though that's likely to change as evaluators finish up the class of 2016 in the coming months. Brouse is the seventh (technically eighth if we [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/orangefootball/index.ssf/2015/06/brandon_ginnetti_syracuse_football_defensive_end.html#incart_river']include Brandon Ginnetti[/URL]) member of the 2016 class, and the second offensive linemen. He joins the list of recent commitments to SU, including [URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2015/6/13/8776473/syracuse-football-recruiting-2016-db-scoop-bradshaw-verbals-orange']Scoop Bradshaw[/URL], [URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2015/6/12/8774787/syracuse-football-recruiting-2016-georgia-olb-nickel-will-harper']Will Harper[/URL] and [URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2015/6/9/8754625/syracuse-football-recruiting-rex-culpepper-verbals-stars-tampa']Rex Culpepper[/URL].

Jennings, a junior from Marietta, Ga., who has been the Tigers' starting quarterback since the end of the 2013 season, was arrested Thursday on a felony charge of unauthorized entry of a dwelling. He has had no previous arrests. Sophomore defensive lineman Maquedius Bain of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., was also arrested for felony unauthorized entry of a dwelling, and junior defensive back Dwayne Thomas of New Orleans was arrested for misdemeanor simple burglary and felony unauthorized entry of a dwelling. All three were booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, according to a jail spokesperson. Tigers coach Les Miles released a statement Thursday night in reference to Jennings', Bains' and Thomas' arrest that read, "We have suspended these players. It has been our policy to suspend players who have been involved in legal issues. I have met with all three players extensively. We are still working with campus housing and the authorities to determine what exactly took place. This is an on-going investigation, and our players will cooperate fully." ...[/I] [B][URL='http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/25218285/chris-simms-says-he-may-have-gotten-a-few-100-handshakes-at-texas']Chris Sims: 'I Might Have Gotten a Few $100 Handshakes at Texas' (cbssports.com; Fornelli)[/URL][/B] [I]In recent years, the college football world has seen its fair share of autograph scandals, whether with Johnny Manziel at Texas A&M or last year with Todd Gurley at Georgia. But it's hardly a recent phenomenon in the sport, as former Texas quarterback Chris Simms attested to on the radio Thursday. Simms, 34, filled in as [URL='http://tikiandtierney.radio.cbssports.com/show/watch-live/']a co-host on CBSSports Radio's Tiki and Tierney[/URL] on Thursday, and he had this to say about his time in Austin from 1999 to 2002. "They didn't pay me, but there may have been cash going around to some other players," said Simms. "I'm not going to deny that. I may have gotten a few $100 handshakes every now and then to sign some autographs for alumni. "I don't care how rich your upbringing was. Yes, I grew up with a silver spoon, but if you give me a few extra $100 as a college kid, that's great." ...

It's not only a recruiting tool to have the finest weight room, it fosters an environment for stronger, better athletes as well. It's not surprising that heavier iron is getting pushed around all over the country.
