Notre Dame football lands its 3rd commitment of July 4th weekend, 2026 WR Brayden Robinson

Yahoo06-07-2025
The fireworks for Notre Dame football wasn't just on July 4th, it was all throughout the weekend with Sunday seeing 2026 wide receiver Brayden Robinson committing to the Irish.
Notre Dame beat out Arizona and Miami for the nation's No. 340 overall prospect according to the 247Sports Composite. Robinson's commitment gives the Irish five wide receivers in its 2026 recruiting class, as they continue to add impressive playmakers to the group.

Robinson, at 5-foot, 8-inches and 160-pounds, most likely is ticketed for the slot, although he could play some on the outside if needed. This weekend saw three of the five committed wide receivers being added to the class, and to me, it was a bit surprising to see all three of them decide on the Irish.
Typically, players are a bit pushed off by so many other players being committed at the same position, but Notre Dame has broken that train of thought. The Irish had a massive recruiting weekend, as the 2026 class now is up to 25 total commits, while being ranked as the No. 4 overall group in the 247Sports Team Composite.

Real Madrid star scoops Club World Cup Golden Boot award

Real Madrid youngster Gonzalo García has secured for himself a prestigious individual piece of silverware. This comes owing to his exploits at this summer's Club World Cup. The newly-formatted CWC was of course brought to a close on Sunday evening, as Chelsea beat out Paris Saint-Germain to lift the title. Advertisement The aforementioned Real Madrid managed to battle their way to the tournament's semi-finals, but were sent packing in comprehensive fashion by PSG. Youngster Gonzalo, meanwhile, enjoyed something of a breakout summer, on his way to four goals in six appearances in the USA. And as alluded to above, such exploits have proven enough to see the Spanish frontman crowned Club World Cup top scorer. Whilst four players (Serhou Guirassy, Marcos Leonardo, Ángel Di María) finished the competition with four goals to their name, Gonzalo also added an assist, enough to see him take home the Golden Boot award.

Barcelona complete signing of Roony Bardghji from Copenhagen

Barcelona have completed the signing of Roony Bardghji from Danish side FC Copenhagen. The 19-year-old has signed a four-year contract with the La Liga side. Bardghji's contract with Copenhagen was due to expire in December but the clubs have agreed a deal which sees the winger join Barcelona immediately. He is expected to join straight up with Hansi Flick's first team squad in time for preseason training which begins on Monday. Bardghji made only six appearances in the back end of the 2024-25 Danish Superliga season after sustaining an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in May 2024. Before that injury, Bardghji had been touted as one of the brightest prospects in European football and had scored 10 goals in 36 appearances that season for Copenhagen. Advertisement The Athletic has previously reported that Barcelona were keen to bolster their attacking ranks this summer but missed out on Nico Williams after the Spain international opted to stay at Athletic Club on a new contract until 2035. Bardghji has also been capped at youth level by Sweden, featuring nine times for their Under-21s. He made 84 first-team appearances for Copenhagen, scoring 15 goals.

What is the NFL's best division in 2025?

A few years ago, the NFC East had three teams in the playoffs. Last season, the division had both teams in the NFC championship game. The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Washington Commanders to win the NFC championship and would go on to beat the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. All four divisional teams have made the playoffs at least once in the last three years. The NFC East must be the best division, or, at the very least, one of the top two divisions in the NFL. Right? Not, according to Eric Edholm of who ranked all eight divisions, with the NFC East coming in at No. 4. The Super Bowl champion Eagles will try to defend their title with the vast majority of last year's offense back in place and enough defensive reinforcements to match the unit's 2024 success. Their biggest threat could come from within the division, with the rising Commanders giving the East arguably the best 1-2 punch of any division. Last year's Eagles were only truly outplayed one time all season -- a 33-16 defeat at Tampa Bay in Week 4 -- and they have enough talent to replace their free-agent losses on defenses. After a few early stumbles last September, the defense emerged as an elite unit -- and a repeat wouldn't be shocking. Here's what Edholm said about the rest of the division. The Commanders took the league by storm, with Jayden Daniels stealing the key to the city in a brilliant rookie season. Daniels is a special talent, and Washington added two big offensive pieces (LT Laremy Tunsil and WR Deebo Samuel), but concerns remain on defense. The Cowboys are a tricky team to handicap with Brian Schottenheimer taking over. Dallas' new head man needs to revitalize the run game and get the best from Dak Prescott. But the defense also looms as an area of worry after last season's troubles stopping the run. The Giants have added more talent to a solid defense and completely refreshed the QB room, offering hope for better results. But a daunting schedule and major pressure on head coach Brian Daboll won't make it the easiest turnaround this season without major improvement on both sides of the ball. New York remains a bottom-eight team until it proves otherwise. Opinions are mixed about which team will finish second in the division. Some believe the Cowboys will give the Eagles a fight with quarterback Dak Prescott back and healthy. However, even more believe that Washington is here to stay. Jayden Daniels is already the best quarterback in the division, and that always gives you a chance. Advertisement The 2025 season is now or never for New York GM Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll. The Giants brought in a pair of veteran quarterbacks, Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, and drafted one in the first round, Jaxson Dart. Here's Edholm's full rankings: 1. NFC North 2. AFC North 3. AFC West 4. NFC East 5. NFC West 6. AFC East 7. NFC South 8. AFC South Is the NFC North really better than the AFC West? The Chiefs, Chargers, and Broncos are all playoff teams, and the Raiders should be much better immediately under Pete Carroll. While the NFC North also had three playoff teams, questions remain about the top two — the Lions and Vikings — and whether they can repeat their success. Detroit lost both coordinators and the Vikings are counting on quarterback J.J. McCaffrey to replace Sam Darnold.
