Yor Anei is getting some hype:
Fran Fraschilla is giving some major recognition to Yor Anei this offseason. He tweeted yesterday that Anei could be set to take a big step this season.
One guy who should take a HUGE step in @Big12Conference is @OSUMBB 6-10 Yor Anei. The sophomore big man had a 13.7% Block Rate (No.4 in country) and didn’t know what he was doing. He does now. Put him on your radar.

James Washington is ready to take a step forward:
Former Oklahoma State wide receiver James Washington is ready to take the next in his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I never really felt like I had to relearn football, but just learn the way they played here and everything,” Washington said.
He also dropped the crutch of feeling the need to leap for every catch when sometimes just finishing his route and running through the ball was enough, a habit that drew a gentle rebuke from Roethlisberger last November after Washington unwisely laid out for a deep ball against Denver. The ball smacked off Washington’s hands and fell away. If he stays on his feet, maybe he hauls it in and trots into the end zone. {The Oklahoman}
