Iowa State gives HC Matt Campbell 8-year extension
Iowa State has given Matt Campbell an eight-year extension, keeping the fifth-year head coach in Ames, Iowa, until 2028.
Further, the school vowed to provide Campbell $3 million in salary enhancements for his coaching staff over the next three years.
"Coach Campbell has always put investments in his student-athletes and football staff before his own personal gains," ISU director of athletics Jamie Pollard said in a statement. "That is the essence of servant leadership and is what makes Coach Campbell so successful."
Contract terms were not disclosed. Campbell earned an average of $3.5 million annually on his previous deal, which ran through 2025.

Kansas City Chiefs' barber tests positive amid haircuts, sources say
The Chiefs had 20 people, including quarterback Patrick Mahomes, other players and staff members, in line for a haircut Sunday with a barber who tested positive for COVID-19, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Backup center Daniel Kilgore was in the chair when the Chiefs pulled the barber once his COVID-19 test results came in, Schefter reported. Kilgore and the barber both were wearing masks and because Kilgore was deemed a close contact, he told the barber to finish. A source initially had told ESPN that Kilgore was mid-haircut when the barber was pulled.
The Chiefs on Monday placed Kilgore and wide receiver Demarcus Robinson on the reserve/COVID-19 list after they were considered to be close contacts.
Robinson and Kilgore have not practiced since being placed on the COVID-19 list this week. But they can return to play in Super Bowl LV on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if they test negative for five consecutive days.

Just sayin': I'd call that incident a "close shave". Regardless, it's pretty stupid to allow a team barber to start cutting players hair (or any other non player inter facing with the players for that matter) before his/her test results are in.

Ryan Day announced Wednesday that Parker Fleming, who has been a quality control coach for the Buckeyes for the past three seasons, has been promoted to special teams coordinator, filling the full-time assistant coach spot opened up by Greg Mattison's retirement.
Matt Barnes, who was previously the special teams coordinator and assistant secondary coach, will now be the secondary coach.
While Mattison was a co-defensive coordinator for his two seasons on Ohio State's staff, Kerry Coombs will now be the Buckeyes' sole defensive coordinator for the 2021 season.
Fleming has previous experience as a full-time assistant coach, as he was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Texas State before joining the Buckeyes as a quality control coach in 2018. Fleming also previously worked as a wide receivers and special teams coach at Texas State and was the wide receivers coach at James Madison before that.
A former college quarterback at Presbyterian, Fleming also worked at Ohio State in 2012 and 2013 as a graduate assistant.

Buckeyes C.J. Stroud, poised to be great:
Mike via our good friends at Men of the Scarlet and Gray
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
The 6-3, 205-pound quarterback is primed for a breakout career for the Ohio State offense.
C.J. Stroud will be in a quarterback battle all summer into fall camp with fellow quarterback Jack Miller III and incoming 5-star freshman Kyle McCord, all competing for the job — but Stroud is certainly the favorite.
According to 247sports, Stroud was a four-star in high school ranked #42 in the country and #2 pro-style quarterback.
Stroud is from Rancho Cucamonga, CA. where he threw for 6,569 yards and 70 touchdowns in his career at Rancho Cucamonga high school. — His senior was extraordinary as he threw for 3,878 yards and 47 touchdowns leading his team to the state semifinals.
During his senior campaign, he competed at the Elite 11, the nation’s premier quarterback competition, and won MVP. — Scouts have compared Stroud to NFL quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.
As a true freshman, Stroud’s significant moment came against Michigan State when he sprinted off for a 48-yard touchdown run — He never attempted a pass but was the first to replace Justin Fields off the bench versus Michigan State and Rutgers.
Stroud has all the tools to become the next great Buckeye quarterback.
He has a solid frame and his high school film shows he has one of the strongest arms with a smooth tight release and has unreal athleticism to make plays outside of the pocket. Along with that, Stroud throws the deep ball with great touch and accuracy.
Stroud may be the favorite heading into next season, but the three-way quarterback battle will be surreal, and this Ohio State offense will be highly-powered and explosive come the 2021 season.

Chris Olave returning for senior season with Buckeyes:
Mike via our good friends at Men of the Scarlet and Gray
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here
With all eyes expecting Ohio State’s star wide receiver Chris Olave to enter his name into the 2021 draft, he announced he’ll return for his senior season.
“I’d like to thank God for this life, without him none of this is possible,” Olave wrote on Twitter and thanked coach Ryan Day, wide receivers coach Brian Hartline, strength coach Mickey Marotti along with Buckeye nation.
“There are so many great memories, but we’re not done yet, I’ll be returning for my senior year at Ohio State,” says Olave.
In his three-year career as a Buckeye, Olave has caught 110 catches, 1,766 yards, and 22 touchdowns.
He was projected as likely a first-round NFL pick and shocked Buckeye nation with his return.
The announcement is huge for the offense heading into next fall.
Key offensive pieces entered the 2021 draft, as expected — Justin Fields, Wyatt Davis, and Trey Sermon.
Olave’s value is magnificent and was on full display this past season as he was unable to participate in the Big Ten Championship game due to COVID protocols — the Buckeyes struggled in the passing game as Justin Fields completed only 12 of 27 passes for 114 yards.
Olave’s return, along with tight end Jeremy Ruckert and left tackle Thayer Munford is enormous, especially within the quarterback room.
The Buckeyes will see a new face at starting quarterback come next fall with sophomores CJ Stroud, Jack Miller, and 5-star true freshman Kyle McCord all competing for the job — the return of Ruckert, Munford, and Olave will help break in a new quarterback.
Olave’s revenge game against Clemson was surreal as he caught six passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns.
Against the Crimson Tide in the national title game, Olave caught eight passes for 69 yards.
His career as a Buckeye has been special — But he’s not done yet and has one goal in mind.
C02 is back.
