Ryan Finley Arrested

Boise State sophomore quarterback Ryan Finley has been arrested for minor possession of alcohol and resisting arrest.  Although we do not know how Coach Bryan Harsin operates in matters such as this, but the incident could open up the door for the job of starting quarterback, at least in the season opener.

Kelsey Young Transfers from Stanford to Boise State

Not only did the Pac-12 Conference not get to share in Boise State's Fiesta Bowl winnings; the conference continues to lose players to the Broncos.  Stanford, which at 8-5 last season probably can't lose too many players to drop into the lower half of the conference, had to say goodbye to running back Kelsey Young, who received a scholarship to play his senior season in Boise.

Young, the older brother of freshman Cory Young, has already earned his degree, and will play this fall for the Broncos.  Kelsey was named to the Doak Walker Watch List last season, and finished as the Cardinal's second-leading rusher with 331 yards on just 66 carries.
