Morning paper: Boise State football links 11/11

There was some big news out of Moscow last night. Vandals RB Deonte Jackson was charged with battery by one of his three teammates who were suspended last week for the same charge. Jackson has not been suspended. Double standard? You betcha! We'll get into this more in a little bit.

In the meantime, here are today's links, brought to you by the wacko opinions of Mark Schlabach:
