Former Nebraska tight end commits to North Carolina State
Former Nebraska football tight end Ian Flynt committed to the North Carolina State Wolfpack on Saturday. He made the announcement on social media Saturday afternoon.
Flynt was a member of the Nebraska football 2024 recruiting class. He originally came to Nebraska as a tight end, but was moved to the defensive end position. He played in one game in the 2024 season, making his debut against UTEP.
According to Rivals, Flynt was recognized as one of the top tight ends in Texas as a recruit. He will have four seasons of eligibility remaining at North Carolina State.
This marks a busy spring for Huskers in terms of roster movement. It comes as the House settlement regarding roster limits hangs in the balance.
Flynt will have an opportunity to make an impact in a premier conference. The Huskers' tight end room appears to be in decent shape, with Luke Lindenmeyer and Heinrich Haarberg looking to take on bigger roles in the room.

Notre Dame quarterback Kenny Minchey makes a bold proclamation following Friday's practice
Kenny Minchey after today's practice: "I'm capable. I believe I'm the best quarterback in the country."Minchey showed off the wheels a bit today with Gino Guidugli as the read defender. You love to see when your quarterback has extreme confidence, and Notre Dame's Kenny Minchey did exactly that on Friday following the second fall practice. When speaking with the media, the second-year player proclaimed that he believes that he's 'the best quarterback in the country,' as On3's Jack Soble posted on social media. It's a strong claim, but one that ultimately could come true. Minchey will have to beat out CJ Carr first, but having that kind of confidence will go a long way. Everything that we have seen from his during his limited playing time and in practices seem to suggest that he's got the skill set to lead the Notre Dame offense. He's got the running ability to make defenses account for his legs, and the throwing ability to pop the top off of a defense. It will be a very interesting battle between the two, as the competition continues this fall leading up to the season opener on the road against Miami. Head coach Marcus Freeman will have a very difficult decision to make, but Minchey is very confident in his abilities.

Madden NFL 26 Top OL ratings revealed — did any Steelers make the cut?
EA just dropped the top-10 player ratings at each position for Madden NFL 26 — and a problem that has plagued Pittsburgh over the past several years has reared its ugly head in the new video game: offensive line play. Here are the newly released Madden NFL 26 player ratings for the top-10 offensive linemen — with the Steelers missing the mark by a wide margin. For comparison, here's the Steelers' offensive line ratings: It's unlikely the young group cares about their Madden ratings with Super Bowl aspirations at play — but the Steelers expect big things out of the unit in 2025, potentially forcing EA Sports to hand out some upgrades early.

Watch Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love's insanely quick feet during a fall practice rep
Notre Dame football star running back Jeremiyah Love is already one of the best at his position nationally, and should be in line for a huge season. As aspect that might be understated in his game, is how great his feet are for the position, but we got a glimpse of that during the second fall camp practice on Friday. In a clip shared by On3's Jack Soble, you can see Love going through a drill showing off his crazy foot speed. Love glides through the drill almost seamlessly, as he makes it look extremely easy. The star junior is coming off a campaign where he accounted for 1,125 rushing yards with 17 touchdowns while catching 28 receptions for 237 yards and 2 more scores. There were multiple games that he had less than 10 carries, which makes you think what he could have done with more opportunities with the ball in his hands. If Love is able to stay healthy, reaching the 1,500-yard mark should be relatively easy, which should lead to more than a few postseason accolades. Most likely he'll be off to the NFL after this season, so enjoy watching one of the best Notre Dame running backs in recent memory this fall.
