Chattanooga's Coleman a standout at East-West Shrine Game

NCAA Football Betting Lines

01/22/2012 - St. Petersburg, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - No FCS player may have risen more in the minds of NFL scouts this weekend than Chattanooga quarterback B.J. Coleman.

After suffering through an injury-plagued senior season, Coleman was a standout in the 87th East-West Shrine Game Saturday at Tropicana Field.

The 6-foot-5, 220-pound Coleman earned the starting nod under East team coach Bobby Ross and completed 10-of-15 passes for 170 yards and one touchdown. His East team fell to the West, 24-17.

Coleman showed excellent pocket awareness and accuracy, going 6-for-6 on the first-quarter drive in which he connected with Michigan State's B.J. Cunningham for a 17-yard touchdown pass.

Coleman was limited to seven games by a shoulder injury this season. He threw for 6,871 yards in three years at Chattanooga after transferring from Tennessee.

At the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl Saturday in Carson, Calif., Eastern Washington quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell completed 8-of-17 passes for 111 yards and one touchdown as his American team fell to the National team, 20-14.

Earlier this month, Mitchell captured the 2011 Walter Payton Award, which is given to the outstanding player in the FCS, presented by The Sportsbook Betting Lines and sponsored by Fathead.com.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.

Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.

El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.

MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. 

Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.

New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.

Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
