Ex-Bearcats coach Minter among five new Indiana State assistants
NCAA Football Betting Lines
07/15/2010 -
Terre Haute, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former University of Cincinnati football
coach Rick Minter has joined third-year Indiana State coach Trent Miles' staff
as one of five new assistants.
The 55-year-old Minter was named linebackers coach. In addition, Mike Simmonds
and Harold Etheridge were named offensive line coaches, P.J. Volker outside
linebackers coach and Clayton Dever offensive assistant coach.
Minter spent 10 seasons as Cincinnati's head coach from 1994-2003, led the
Bearcats to four postseason bowl games and was the winningest coach in the
program's history. He also served as defensive coordinator twice at Notre Dame
as well as with Ball State, South Carolina and Marshall. He was at Marshall in
each of the past two seasons and served as the Thundering Herd's interim head
coach to end the 2009 season when they defeated Ohio, 21-17, in the Little
Caesars Pizza Bowl.
"All of our new coaches have a wealth of experience at the highest levels of
collegiate football and, more importantly, have proven to be great role models
during their careers," Miles announced in a school news release. "The Sycamore
football program is taking a huge step forward with the additions of these
experienced and committed coaches."
Indiana State opens its season Sept. 4 against St. Joseph's (Indiana), visits
Cincinnati on Sept. 11 and, after an off week, opens play in the Missouri
Valley Football Conference on Sept. 25 at Western Illinois. The Sycamores were
1-10 last season, including 1-7 in the MVFC.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
