Yahoo16 hours ago

That prospect is quarterback Graham Simpson, who is the younger brother of current Alabama redshirt junior signal caller Ty Simpson.

While unranked currently according to the 247Sports Composite recruiting rankings, Simpson is likely to be among the top quarterbacks in the 2028 class when they are released. Attending Westview High School in Tennessee, the 2028 prospect currently owns over 10+ offers, according to 247Sports.
Simpson is also the reigning MaxPreps National Freshman of the Year, doing so during the 2024 season after what was a phenomenal campaign in which he threw for 4,135 yards with a 57:1 TD:INT ratio and a 75.6% completion. A few former Alabama stars have also won the award previously, which includes both Dylan Moses (2013) and Jase McClellan (2016).
Alabama does not currently have a player committed in the 2028 recruiting class.

ESPYS 2025: Saquon Barkley's iconic hurdle wins best play

It was one of the most memorable plays of the 2024 NFL season. It left Pro Bowl wide receivers and a Super Bowl-winning coach in awe. It will grace the cover of the newest Madden NFL video game. Saquon Barkley's hurdle now has another accolade: ESPY Award winner. The annual sports awards show gave Barkley's incredible feat against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9 of last season the "Best Play" award. The Philadelphia Eagles running back flew like an eagle on the play, reverse hurdling over Jaguars cornerback Jarrian Jones to convert a third-and-six in the second quarter. Philadelphia ended up winning the game 28-23 thanks in no small part to Barkley's 199 total yards (159 rushing, 40 receiving) and two touchdowns. It was one of his six games with at least 100 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns but that play stood out to his teammates and coach. "It was the best play I've ever seen," Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said after the game. "What I think is so cool, there's going to be kids all over the country and all over Philadelphia trying to make that play and talking about that play and simulating that play as they play backyard football or peewee football. They ain't going to be able to make it – I believe he's the only one in the world that can do that. I'm speechless. It was unbelievable." "Crazy," Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith said. "I ain't never seen nothing like it." The ESPYS certainly agreed. It was an iconic play in an incredible season for the former No. 2 overall pick. Barkley signed with the Super Bowl champion Eagles last offseason following six years with the New York Giants. He led the league in carries (345) and rushing yards (2,005) and tallied 15 total touchdowns. That was good enough for first-team All-Pro and Offensive Player of the Year honors.

Skipton teen commits to Bradford City for next season

A TEENAGER from Skipton has signed a contract with Bradford City Women's Academy for next season. Lola Hird, 13, spent last season with the Bantams as well as with Premier League giants, Liverpool, but she has committed to the West Yorkshire based club for the upcoming campaign. A pupil at Skipton Academy, Hird has been approached by Liverpool, Sheffield United, Blackpool, Burnley and Blackburn Rovers for the 2025/26 season but she has decided to stay loyal to her roots and continue with Bradford City. She will play in the Junior Premier League, with the aim of playing for City Women's first team in a couple of years' time. Alongside Bradford and Liverpool last season, Hird continued with local boys' team Sutton Juniors, and they gained mid-season promotion due to the team's impressive performances. She also continued to train for Skipton based, Select Football Academy, who provide an excellent ladder for boys and girls who are wanting to take a step up from grassroots level. Hird has been kindly sponsored by Pennine Vehicle Repairs on her journey, which is a Local Land Rover and Jaguar specialist based in Skipton.
