Class of 2027 Notre Dame in-state DE target Jayce Brewer picks up an offer from LSU
The Irish are in play for some intriguing prospects on the other side of the ball in this class as well, including in-state Franklin Central (Indianapolis, IN) defensive end Jayce Brewer. But the Irish will have some work to do in order to get his commitment.
Brewer has a lot of offers from major programs, and he just picked another one up from Brian Kelly and LSU.
The four-star prospect is the No. 3 player from the state of Indiana for the 2027 class, per the 247Sports Composite Rankings. The 6-foot-5, 240-pound pass rusher has offers from major programs such as Michigan, Penn State and Florida, among others, in addition to the Irish and LSU.
Last season, Brewer recorded 12 tackles for loss along with three sacks and an interception. Marcus Freeman, Al Washington and Co. are in the mix for the athletic and raw Brewer, but they will have to hold off LSU and others for his pledge.

The Thrill and Agony: UFC on ABC 9 winner and loser reactions
A post shared by Mohammad Yahya محمد يحيى (@yahyamma) Since the early days when the sport was anything but a mainstream endeavor, the MMA industry has thrived and survived through various websites, forums, and – perhaps most importantly – social-media platforms. Fighters interact with fans, each other and many more through the likes of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, which helps outsiders get a deeper look into the minds of the athletes. Following Saturday's UFC on ABC 9 in Abu Dhabi, several of the winning and losing fighters, along with their coaches, training partners or family members, took to social media to react to the event or share a message with supporters. Check out some of those reactions.

Elite 2025 RHP and Texas A&M commit signs with the Milwaukee Brewers
Texas A&M's 2026 baseball roster won't include another top 2025 prospect, as elite RHP Chase Bentley, who was selected in the 19th Round of the 2025 MLB Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers, has reportedly signed with the Franchise for a surprising $757,500, which is reportedly a record for a player selected in the 19th Round. Bentley joins several Texas A&M 2025 signees who have opted to sign with MLB teams. Like junior outfielder Jace LaViolette, who was selected 27th overall by the Cleveland Guardians, and signed signed for over $4 million, Bentley's future is extremely bright, and while many, including myself expected him to suit up with the Aggies next season, turning down more than half a million to develop in the minor leagues before being called up would be even more surprising. Texas A&M's 2026 pitching rotation will likely include Weston Moss, Shane Sdao, and another new addition from the transfer portal, while the bullpen features several young but intriguing names, including Caden McCoy, who developed down the stretch last season. However, closer Josh Stewart, who was granted a medical exemption for the 2026 season, will immediately boost what was a shaky position after his injury. Agreeing with MLBPipeline writer Jim Callis, Texas A&M will miss out on a player with a pitching arsenal that goes past the fastball, excelling with his changeup, which translates to the MLB, and could result in an early call-up if he excels in the minor leagues.

Jeremiyah Love added to Maxwell Award watch list
Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love may be a long shot for the Heisman, and now he's on another awards' watch list. He's on the watch list for the Maxwell Award. The award is given out to the most outstanding college football player in the U.S., with sports writers, sports broadcasters, and head coaches making up the field of judges. Boise State's Ashton Jeanty won the award in 2024. It's no surprise Love would be on this list, since he helped lead the Irish to the national title game last season -- and had he been healthier, the team might have prevailed over Ohio State. Maybe Love should be more of a Heisman favorite, after all.
