1. Ole Miss successfully lobbied the NCAA to allow quarterback transfer Barry Brunetti to play immediately by citing his mother’s degenerative neck and back injuries.

2. As expected, former Florida receiver Chris Dunkley has transferred to South Florida.

3. Will Muschamp — who is six years younger than FSU’s Jimbo Fisher — said yesterday that his friend “is a solid 12 to 15 years (older than him), at least looking.”

4. Mark Richt is still trying to explain the “I know what the hell I’m going” comment he recently made to a fan.

5. Isaiah Crowell’s ability to pick up pass protection assignments will dictate how much playing time he gets this fall.

6. John Clay of The Lexington Herald-Leader draws attention to a story from the Dominican Republic about how “former” Kentucky coach John Calipari will be taking over the DR’s national squad.

7. The NBA is about to endure some rough labor negotiations, but this writer says the one-and-done rule likely won’t be changed.

8. Often mentioned as a potential candidate for Tennessee’s AD post should Mike Hamilton get the gallows, Phillip Fulmer says he’s at peace with his post-coaching life.

9. Vanderbilt — no surprise — routed the SEC in terms of the NCAA’s freshly-released APR results.
