Spartans talk about Jonathan Smith's leadership traits, 'brilliant football brain'
"He's definitely a brilliant football brain." That was what one of the three Spartans in attendance at Big Ten Football Media Days had to say about head coach Jonathan Smith. The leadership and ability to trust his staff were two notable items called out by a pair of Spartans during a round table discussion on the Big Ten Network's season preview show on Thursday from Las Vegas. "He gives the other coaches that authority," Spartans wide receiver Nick Marsh said. "He lets them take course for the team. We have a few other coaches that act like the head coach (as well)." "He's more of a reserved guy -- cool, calm and collective," Michigan State offensive lineman Stanton Ramil added. "When he really wants to make that point, it's definitely made. He's definitely a brilliant football brain." Smith is entering his second season as the Spartans head coach, with fans expecting a better outcome than year one under Smith. The Spartans failed to reach bowl eligibility, finishing the year with a 5-7 record. There seems to be more momentum, though, for Michigan State to bounce back this season and reach bowl eligibility for the first time since 2021.

The Notre Dame Leprechaun ranked as top mascot by ESPN
When it comes to college sports, mascots rule. They are integral to the fan experience of going to a sporting event, especially on Saturdays in the fall. And Notre Dame's Leprechaun is one of the more popular mascots nationally. So when ESPN's Ryan McGee released his college football Mascot Power Rankings, it came as no surprise that there was a lot of love for The Leprechaun. McGee broke mascots down into five categories, and the Notre Dame Leprechaun took top honors in the Human Division, ahead of the Mountaineer (West Virginia) and Davy Crockett (Tennessee), who tied for second; Masked Rider (Texas Tech) at third; Osceola (Florida State) at fourth; and Vili the Warrior (Hawai'i) at No. 5. Which mascot outside of the Leprechaun is your personal favorite?
