"During that time, Kevin coached the linebacker position in the 4-3 scheme he will be installing here," Western Illinois head coach Mark Hendrickson said. "His wealth of experience and knowledge will greatly benefit our entire program."
Prior to Arkansas State, Corless was an assistant coach at Northwestern State from 1995-2001 and at Montana Tech from 1986-95. He also worked from 1984-86 as a graduate assistant coach at Northwest Missouri State, his alma mater.
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.
Northwestern State defensive back Jeremy Lane and Stephen F. Austin offensive lineman Georgia Bias also may play in the game.
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.
Mobile, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - When Cal Poly senior cornerback Asa Jackson played his final game at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in November, he didn't know he would be returning this month. Jackson is the first Football Championship Subdivision player to accept an invitation to participate in the 2012 Senior Bowl. The all-star game is scheduled for Jan. 28 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium (4 p.m. ET, NFL Network).
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.
Cal Poly ended its 6-5 season with a 41-10 win over South Alabama at Ladd- Peebles Stadium. Jackson had seven tackles and one pass breakup.

“You play to win the game!”
Those are the words of notoriously intense head coach Herman Edwards. Unfortunately, from a bettors’ perspective, most coaches don’t feel that way about the NFL preseason. August is a time to evaluate young players, finalize the depth chart and pray your star players stay healthy.
The trick to making money during the exhibition schedule is identifying coaches – like Edwards – who can’t stand losing even when there's nothing on the line.
The New York Jets betting won 15 of 21 preseason games and went 14-7 against the spread (ATS) during Edwards’s five-year tenure with the club. In his first season as the Kansas City Chiefs field boss, the team improved from 0-4 to 2-2.
Identifying win-a-holics like Edwards is a good start if you plan betting the preseason – even though most say you shouldn’t ... but what the hell do they know anyway?
Here’s a brief rundown of two teams that have a habit of winning during the second-stringers’ season, and another club that has a good chance of exceeding this year.
Playing in the media hub of North America can be stressful but the press can’t write anything negative about the way Tom Coughlin’s boys play in the preseason. The Giants won and covered all four games last summer, improving their record to 7-1 both straight up (SU) and against the spread over the last two years.
Coughlin has shown he’s not afraid to give his starters more time in the second preseason game than most of his colleagues, no doubt one of the reasons his team has been so dominant.
Bettors can count on America’s team early on. The Cowboys are 14-6 both SU and ATS since 2002 in warm-up contests. Former coach Bill Parcells, the coach of the team the last four years, has an intimidating, in-your-face presence – surely a reason Dallas has had so much early success.
The Big Tuna won’t be strolling the sidelines with looks of disgust, but new coach Wade Phillips will be anxious to make a good first impression for owner Jerry Jones.
Dallas plays the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos before things get serious. They then face the Houston Texans in their third contest (the game starters see most game time) and finish off with the Minnesota Vikings.
Expect a Dallas team able to walk away with another 3-1 preseason record.
This team scored a league-worst 12 offensive touchdowns last season, so the rookies and veterans each have something to prove. There’s a bounty of first-unit jobs up for grabs and plenty of bodies competing for those slots.
First-time head coach Lane Kiffin will be eager to impress an owner who employs the philosophy, “Just win, baby!”
The 32-year-old Kiffin has to command respect from a locker room full of players older than him. All of these factors should lead to purpose in preseason.
Don’t forget: before playing like a team that belonged in NFL Europe, Oakland went 4-1 (both SU and ATS) in exhibition games.
