Back in 2020, as a top high school prospect in North Carolina, Jared Wilson committed to the University of North Carolina to snap the ball for quarterback Drake Maye. That never unfolded, as Wilson decommitted five months later before flipping to the University of Georgia. Fast forward to 2026 in Foxboro, and Wilson is preparing […]

After a rookie season that would have been impossible to predict, the San Francisco 49ers saw glimpses of why they selected Ricky Pearsall in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

The dim hope of generating momentum for the offseason all but died over the weekend as Illinois dominated the ‘Cats. The Illini swept Northwestern in every sense of the word: NU didn’t lead for a single half-inning, the ‘Cats committed almost as many errors as RBIs and went 4 for 18 with runners in scoring […]
Indiana football’s staff is taking full advantage of the quieter period of the calendar between spring football and summer football. The Hoosiers are on the recruiting trail putting in more work on established prospects in the class of 2027 while building early connections in the class of 2028. The program made one of the latter […]
Ohio State’s offseason overhaul was never going to be about chasing one superstar addition, even if we wanted them to. After another season where depth, shot creation and bench consistency became recurring problems, the Buckeyes entered the portal cycle looking for functional pieces that could stabilize the rotation around the program’s young core. That search […]
Football recruiting is often chaotic at best, with the landscape constantly changing. This goes for both the school and the player. It’s difficult enough for high school players to pick a college, let alone trying to decide where to play football. Parents can lend their thoughts, but ultimately, the decision lies with the athlete. But […]
Indiana football’s unprecedented two-year rise from the depths of irrelevance to the best team in the sport spurred a wave of optimism across college football. If the Hoosiers can do it, why not us? In 2025, that was Illinois fans. In fairness to the Fighting Illini, the “next Indiana,” label was applied by external national […]
Not for that reason, though. Teaching is tiring enough as it is—at baseline, I’m annoyed, frustrated, and underpaid. Happy Finals Week. Students don’t read, can’t write, and yet Michigan State’s admission rates aren’t getting any better. (This is a Big Ten blog, remember.) Use of artificial intelligence abounds, and some Big Ten institutions are just […]

Happy Thursday, everyone. Kalen DeBoer spoke to Greg McElroy yesterday and had some interesting things to say. For starters, he is demanding that the team be more physical this season which will be music to Alabama fans’ ears. “You work around your personnel,” DeBoer said. “I really do believe you don’t win championships without a […]
It’s not unusual for a head coach on the hot seat to say he isn’t worried about his job. And it’s not unusual for upper management and sporting directors to mumble supportive things about such a head coach. Yet despite Liverpool’s massively disappointing 2025-26 season, that the club look tired and without a tactical identity […]
The biggest question each year is — can Rutgers get to six wins and qualify for a bowl game? Head coach Greg Schiano accomplished this goal twice in recent years but fell short at 5-7 in 2025. The ultimate goal for the fall will to improve by at least one game and play in bowl […]

We have arrived at the point in the college football playoff timeline where we are now seriously considering the expansion of the format to 24 teams. It’s perhaps one of the most unsurprising storylines this offseason as so much of the college football landscape revolves almost completely around the CFP. This is wildly different than […]
