Levine impresses again, signs Greenberry
HOUSTON As Houston Cougars coach Tony Levine cracked joke after joke in a monotone that belied his mood, it was easy to understand the source of his elation. The Cougars, once an afterthought on the national college football landscape, made headlines once again on Wednesday.

HE RESTS HIS CASE
Houston QB throws for 534 yds., 9 TDs
Case Keenum is no stranger to gaudy numbers, but the 534-yard, 9-touchdown performance he put up in the University of Houston's 73-34 win over Rice is mind-boggling.

College Football Recruiting 2012: Houston Cougars
University of Houston’s newest member of the NFL, quarterback Case Keenum, may be remembered as the man who put the Cougars on the map. The Cougars finished the regular season 12-0 as they set a new school record for wins. It was the first undefeated and untied regular season in their 66-year history. The Cougars would lose to Southern Mississippi in the 2011 Conference USA...

Houston’s Keenum becomes NCAA’s all-time leader in total offense
Houston senior quarterback, Case Keenum, became the NCAA’s all-time leader in total offense after Saturday’s 171 yard first quarter passing against Marshall.
Keenum, needing only 130 yards to beat the previous record of 16,910 yards held by Hawaii’s Timmy Chang, stood at 16,952 career offensive yards after the first quarter. He broke the record on a 30-yard pass to Justin...

So, why did the Houston Cougars put up a billboard featuring Case Keenum giving ‘the shocker’ hand gesture anyway?
Well, because it’s not supposed to be “the shocker” as defined by Urban Dictionary. (Warning: link not safe for the faint of heart, parents of any age, or Rick Santorum.)
Here is the picture, and then in true Paul Harvey style…the rest of the story.

C-USA championship out of reach for Keenum
HOUSTON Back in August, when the knee was still sore and the jubilation of getting the sixth season was still fresh, it was all in front of Case Keenum.
The records. The BCS. The Heisman. It would take something extraordinary to get all that, but it was possible. Yet Keenum, granted a sixth season by the NCAA after blowing out his knee last year, did not allow himself to dream...

If Houston’s Case Keenum Doesn’t Win the Heisman, Maybe He Can Adopt This Kid
Nice costume kid. Very authentic, right down to the old-timey leather helmet. Wonder if the little scamp came up with the idea on his own, or if his parents promised him a new puppy if he let them turn him into a living, breathing Heisman Trophy and show him off at the Houston-SMU game, which the Cougars won easily 37-7.
I don’t recall the actual trophy having such a scowl...

Case for Keenum and Houston
There are only two unbeaten teams in the country, and Kevin Sumlin’s Houston Cougars is one of those teams. Sumlin’s Qb is also on the verge of making a trip to New York for the Heisman presentation. It’s pretty obvious that Houston should be in a BCS bowl, but there are some out there that think they shouldn’t because of the conference they play in.

Timing is everything for coaches on move
If the University of Houston is about to lose another head football coach to a higher level the timing is perfect for Kevin Sumlin. The opening of the Texas A&M Aggies job may be the job that makes his departure for U-H more certain.

After throwing for 9 touchdowns against Rice in a 63-34 Houston win, Case Keenum is the talk of the college football world. With the failures of Timmy Chang and Colt Brennan, it would seem that he is destined to be another casualty of the NFL, but his CFL stardom is all but assured.
