Franklin Howard (Washington, D.C./Gonzaga College) has been driving lanes long before he could drive a car. By doing so, the 6-foot-4 shooting guard is driving college offers up as well.
A star in the class of 2015, Howard -- who still doesn’t have a driver’s license -- picked up offers from Miami and Ohio State over the weekend to add to an already-impressive list that includes Florida, Georgetown, Seton Hall and Villanova.
“I’m happy I was able to pick up those offers,” Howard said. “It’s what I’ve been dreaming of my whole life. Since I’ve started playing basketball, I’ve always wanted to get all these offers, all these looks.’

SEC/Big East slate whets the appetite

The SEC/Big East Challenge may not quite have the longstanding cachet of its ACC/Big Ten brethren, nor should it. The ACC/Big Ten Challenge is 13 going on 14, and as the years piled up and the Atlantic Coasters just kept winning -- the ACC won the first 10 challenges, which seems almost impossible, before the Big Ten rebounded with three straight wins -- the dominance created a weird sort of intrigue all its own.
The SEC/Big East Challenge is just five years old, and probably less well-known than its counterpart, but it's getting there -- and the 2012 matchups should only help.
Said matchups were released by the fine folks over at ESPN programming today, and they are as follows:
Thursday, Nov. 29
Marquette at Florida
Seton Hall at LSU
Kentucky at Notre Dame
South Carolina at St. John’s
