Cheyenne Woods and Nick Montana better watch out, because we have a new family member to gush about.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to Dylan Favre, the nephew of a guy by the name of Brett Favre, who is a junior quarterback at Bay Saint Louis (Miss.) St. Stanislaus and is breaking records like his crazzzzzy uncle.

Dylan has already set a state record with 48 touchdowns this season, including eight on the ground, and might be even more popular on the national recruiting trail were it not for his undersized build. Baby Favre is only 5-foot-10, 180 pounds and is only being lightly recruited by Ole Miss, Southern Miss, UCLA and Notre Dame, which have sent Dylan standard-issue letters.

While Drew Brees continues to break the size mold for NFL quarterbacks (he's listed at 6-foot but I've stood next to the man and he wouldn't be 6-foot on stilts), most quarterbacks these days are between 6-foot-2 and 6-foot-5. It's going to be hard to convince coaches to take a chance on a guy that is already at a disadvantage before ever touching a football.

Recruiting in NCAA women's golf hasn't quite reached the point where it drives the kind of frenzied message board speculation that football and basketball recruiting produce. But the women's golf team at Wake Forest has landed a big-name recruit who will have lots of golf fans talking.

The recruit is Cheyenne Woods, the daughter of Tiger Woods' half brother Earl Woods Jr. She's a two-time Arizona state high school champion, and she picked up golf from the same person who taught Tiger to play: The late Earl Woods Sr., Tiger's dad and Cheyenne's grandfather.

Cheyenne doesn't spend a lot of time with Tiger, but he has given her tips, and she says she knows that as her own golf career progresses, she'll be asked about him more often.
