A look at where FIU is expected to finish in conference in Willie Simmons' first season
Lindy's magazine predicts FIU will finish in last place this year in Conference USA's 12-team football standings. Athlon is a bit kinder to FIU, picking the Panthers ninth. Willie Simmons, FIU's new coach, doesn't agree with either prognostication. 'I think we're going to surprise people this year,' Simmons said on Tuesday at C-USA's Media Day in Frisco, Texas. The outside pessimism regarding FIU is understandable considering the fact that the Panthers have suffered through five straight losing seasons. Over the past four years, the Panthers are 9-32 overall and 3-24 in league play. In addition, FIU lost most of its top players from last season, including wide receivers Eric Rivers and Dean Patterson, who both transferred to Georgia Tech after combining for 112 catches in 2024. In fact, only four FIU starters return from last season: quarterback Keyone Jenkins; left guard Jaheim Buchanon; defensive end Keegan Davis; and cornerback Brian Blades II. Lindy's magazine doesn't have any FIU player listed as a preseason first-team All-C-USA selection. Jenkins, Buchanon and punter Trey Wilhoit are on the second team. In addition, Jenkins is named as the 'best scrambler' in the league. Athlon's – again – holds FIU in a bit higher regard. For example, Buchanon, Blades and kick returner C'Quan Jnopierre made their first-team list. Also, ex-Miami Edison and current FIU running back Sterling Joseph was named as the league's eighth-best freshman recruit. FIU's recruiting class overall was ranked fifth in the conference. Meanwhile, with FIU's players set to report on Monday and its first fall practice of the year scheduled for July 31, Simmons used the word 'excited' or 'exciting' four times in his first 20 seconds on the Media Day stage in Frisco. 'We've had an amazing seven-plus months with these guys, building the roster and putting the coaching staff together,' Simmons said. 'We're excited to get to work next week.' Simmons also admitted that FIU's resources aren't the biggest. But he's not fazed by what FIU may lack. 'Being at low-resource institutions before, you learn the value of efficiency and how to maximize your time,' Simmons said. 'We don't have unlimited resources. That means everyone doing extra work, being unselfish, and that's a quality that breeds success. 'Whether it was at Prairie View, FAMU, even Duke last year or now at FIU – when you don't have the most, you have to make the most of what you do have.'

Raiders sign ex-Broncos draft pick after WR impressed in UFL
The Las Vegas Raiders are bringing in a former Denver Broncos draft pick ahead of training camp. The Raiders made five signings on Tuesday, including wide receiver Seth Williams. The 25-year-old receiver entered the league as a sixth-round pick out of Auburn with the Broncos in 2021. He spent most of his rookie season on Denver's practice squad, hauling in one catch for 34 yards in two appearances that season. Williams was cut by the Broncos during the 2022 offseason, and he then had stints with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Dallas Cowboys before joining the UFL's DC Defenders ahead of the 2025 spring season. He totaled 11 receptions for 170 yards and two touchdowns in four games with DC this spring before landing with the Raiders. Las Vegas also signed ex-Denver receiver Phillip Dorsett, and the Raiders' biggest move going into camp was the addition of ex-Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams. Elsewhere on the ex-Bronco front, tight end Noah Fant worked out for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after being released by the Seahawks earlier this week. Fant shouldn't have too much trouble landing on his feet. Social: Follow Broncos Wire on Facebook and Twitter/X! Did you know: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.

On this day: Fred Roberts lost in expansion draft; Gary Payton, Javonte Green born
On this day in Boston Celtics history, the team lost power forward Fred Roberts in the 1988 NBA expansion draft, held to populate two new teams set to join the league that coming season, the Charlotte Hornets and Miami Heat. Technically speaking, the Heat drafted Roberts with the fifth overall pick of the expansion draft, but immediately traded him to the Milwaukee Bucks for a collection of draft assets. Roberts himself had come to the team in a trade from the Utah Jazz (for the pick that would one day become current-day NBA head coach Billy Donovan), where he would play two seasons for the storied franchise in a reserve role. Roberts would average 5.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, and an assist per game while with the team. It is also the birthday of former Celtic wing Javonte Green. He was born in 1993 in Petersburg, Virginia, and would play his college ball not far away at Radford. Going undrafted out of college, the future Celtic would play overseas before joining Boston for parts of two seasons between 2019 and 2021. Green put up 3.7 points and 1.8 rebounds per contest with the Celtics. Former Celtic guard Gary Payton shares the birthday with him. Born in 1968 in Oakland, California, Payton would attend Oregon State for his NCAA ball before being drafted second overall in the 1990 NBA Draft by the Seattle Supersonics. The Californian would play for that team, the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Los Angeles Lakers before joining the Celtics in 2004. He'd play just one season for Boston, averaging 11.3 points, 3.1 boards, and 6.1 assists per game, and would leave the team in another trade with the Atlanta Hawks in 2005. Finally, today is also the day we lost guard Jerry Kelly in 1996. Born in New York City in 1918, the Marshall alum joined the Celtics in their inaugural season of 1946-47 for 43 games. He averaged 6 points per game across that stretch -- rest in peace.
