Big thanks to Domenic Perilli for making sure you all had reading material this Wednesday and Thursday while I was enjoying a week long vacation in Las Vegas. It was a much needed voyage after three years of law school and a few terrible months of studying for the Florida Bar Exam. We had quite an entourage out there, which included Dynasty‘s Human Resources Director, Justin Herzig. Things won’t be going back to normal just yet, as I took a red-eye home and immediately drove up to Gainesville. I am packing up my room and finally moving into my new place in Fort Lauderdale. It is an exciting time, but boy will it be busy. Anyway, here are some stories I missed over the last week:

- Some good lines from Saban at the end of this article [Coaches, NFL discuss agent access].
