Jameis Winston Eats His Way Down the Draft Board (grantland.com; Borcas)
Any discussion of the 2015 NFL draft has to begin with Jameis Winston, and right now, any discussion of Jameis Winston has to begin with this photo:
It surfaced over the weekend and immediately sparked a frenzy of speculation about Winston’s weight and conditioning, much like the unforgettable Fat Eddie Lacy nontroversy of 2013. Winston’s “personal”1 QB whisperer, George Whitfield,attempted to stem the tide of ZOMG JAMEIS IS OBESE! tweets by blaming Winston’s apparent corpulence on “the leash tight around his waist,” but that didn’t stop Jared “The Pillsbury Throwboy” Lorenzen from acknowledging Winston’s seemingly rotund figure. Real recognize real.

Potential Fresh Faces for 2015 All-ACC Football Team (sportswar.com; Quintero)
Brad Kaaya – Miami
Kaaya connected on 221 of his 378 passes last season, good for 3,198 yards and those 26 touchdown passes. He also only threw 12 interceptions, a credit to the poise and decision making that received praise last season. The Hurricanes not only found a serviceable signal caller in Kaaya, but one who should reach higher limits before he inevitably moves onto the NFL in the future.
Shadrach Thornton – NC State
Staying out of trouble last season, Thornton returned to his freshman form, falling just short of breaking the 1,000 yard mark. He finished with 907 yards on 164 carries with nine touchdowns, leading the Wolfpack running corps in all categories. He received an All-ACC honorable mention in 2014, and could be poised to take the next step in 2015.

Ranking the ACC's Football/Basketball Coaching Tandems (athlons[orts.com; Fox)
Step back five years and the list of football-basketball coaching tandems in the ACC looks pretty crazy.
That Mike Krzyzewski is the basketball representative at Duke probably makes sense, but what about the Blue Devils having a successful football coach?
Now, that’s weird.
And what about the No. 2 and No. 3 teams on our list: Louisville and Notre Dame were hardly a glimmer in the eye of the ACC several years ago. Notre Dame, of course, isn’t a full member, but we’ve included the Irish here since men’s basketball is an ACC team and the football team by contract plays its fair share of ACC schools.
Semantics aside, with Duke football plus Louisville and Notre Dame in the fold, the ACC has assembled a solid group of football-basketball coaching duos.

Bitter Cold, Snow Will Hit Central NY Friday (PS; Sturz)
Our weather Friday will be cold and windy with snow to boot. Simply put, it might be a good day to stay inside if you can.
Bitter cold arctic air will continue to flood into Central New York Friday.
Wind chills close to 30 below at time, especially in the morning will make conditions miserable for anyone venturing outside.
The morning commute Friday won't be an easy one either. Northern Onondaga and Madison counties, as well as part of Oswego County, will likely be hit with between 4 and 6 inches of snow. Temperatures will be below zero early on too.
A wind chill warning was issued through late Friday morning for all of Central New York and the National Weather Service also issued a lake effect snow advisory for parts of the region.
We'll see more snow throughout the weekend. Temperatures will warm up, topping out in the mid 30s on Sunday before dropping down next week.
