With the dreadful Superbowl finally over after what felt like ages, it is now time for us NFL fans to focus on the offseason. One of the most important parts of the offseason is the NFL Draft. All the best college players enter the draft for a chance to be drafted by a NFL team and hopefully have an eventful career in the NFL. Now without further ado, here are the top five players who entered the NFL Draft this year.

Kyler Murray

Kyler Murray was by far the best player in college football this season, and that's why he won the Heisman, yet why is he not on the top of this list? It's for two reasons: one is his height, where he's listed at 5 ft 10, but apparently 5 ft 9 which is very undersized for QB in the NFL, and the second is he isn't committed to playing football. Yes, he did declare for the NFL Draft, but he still has an MLB contract and has not said which sport he is committed too. Murray, however, is an electric player and I wouldn't be surprised if a team took a risk and picked him early even if they don't know which sport he's committed too; he's just that electric and game-changing. If Murray chooses football for sure, he is definitely top 3 on this list, but until he does, he'll have to be content being 5.

Dwayne Haskins

Dwayne Haskins was the best pure pocket thrower in the country this year and one of the best prospects to enter the NFL Draft this year. With so many teams in need for a quarterback this year, Haskins looks like a lock to be a first round pick. Haskins has the ability to turn any franchise into a winner just like Baker Mayfield did. I'm not saying he is as skilled as Mayfield, but he definitely has the ability to. While Haskins was only a one year starter at The Ohio State University, it won't be long before he is a household name to NFL Fans.

Quinnen Williams

Quinnen Williams is a scary man. He's big, strong, fast. Basically everything a coach wants out of their Defensive tackle. DT's have always been an important position in the NFL and with many teams always needing them, it looks as if Williams is lined up for a starting job. We could see the next Aaron Donald right in front of us playing for some team that struggled this past season.

Josh Allen

I don't wanna claim that Josh Allen himself made Kentucky's defense scary, but he sorta kinda did. Allen is an insane leader, great tackler, and just an all around monster at football. Kentucky's never been known as a football school, but when I saw Kentucky in the top 15 this year I was shocked, but then I watched a couple games and saw Josh Allen out there ballin out. He has that Khalil Mack sorta feeling and I think he's going to be special in the NFL.

Nick Bosa

It is a well known fact that Nick Bosa is the most dominant player coming into the NFL Draft. When you watch him on the field, all he does is disrupt and make plays. His brother, Joey Bosa, who's on the Chargers now was an insanely talented prospect and NFL player was pretty damn good, but scouts think that Nick Bosa is better. It's going to be fun watching him in the league, and if there's one guarantee in the NFL, it's that Nick Bosa is a top-3 pick.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
