Macomb, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Arkansas State assistant coach Kevin Corless begins his new duties as Western Illinois' defensive coordinator on Monday. Corless worked the last nine seasons at Arkansas State, the first seven as co- defensive coordinator and the final two as the sole coordinator who also was in charge of the linebackers and punt return units.

 

Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The number of Football Championship Subdivision players who will participate in the AstroTurf NFLPA Collegiate Bowl on Saturday is rising. At least 16 FCS players will participate in the all-star game at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. (6 p.m. ET, NBC Sportsbook Betting Lines).

 

The National squad has five FCS players, Southern wide receiver LaQuinton Evans, Delaware State offensive tackle Keith Newell, Georgia Southern cornerback/kickoff returner Laron Scott, Liberty tight end Tommy Shavers and Hampton cornerback Peyton Thompson.

 

Former Super Bowl-winning coaches Tom Flores and Dick Vermeil will serve as head coaches.

 

College Park, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Maryland has named Brian Stewart as its new defensive coordinator. Stewart spent the past two seasons as defensive coordinator at the University of Houston and has also been an assistant on the NFL level, including two years running the defense for the Dallas Cowboys.

 

Houston ranked in the top 15 in the nation in five defensive categories during the 2011 season, in which the Cougars finished 13-1.

 

Stewart also had nine years of collegiate coaching experience before his venture to the NFL, including stops at Cal Poly, Northern Arizona, Missouri, San Jose State and Syracuse.

 

The 5-foot-11, 190-pound Jackson was a finalist for the Buck Buchanan Award (sponsored by Fathead.com) and made The Sportsbook Betting Lines/Fathead.com FCS All- America third team for the second straight year.

 

At the Senior Bowl, Mike Shanahan and the Washington Redskins staff will coach the South squad and Leslie Frazier and the Minnesota Vikings staff will coach the North.

 

It is expected next week's practice sessions will be attended by over 800 general managers, head coaches, assistant coaches, scouts and other front office personnel from the 32 NFL teams.
