Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Fatutoa Henry
When it comes to potential instant-impact players in the Alabama Crimson Tide's 2025 recruiting class, defensive lineman Fatutoa Henry is certainly a name to know. Coming to Alabama via junior college, Henry is an experienced player at the collegiate level, but much of that didn't come in the FBS. However, Henry did originally begin his collegiate career with a team that is currently in the SEC, and now looks to breakout at the Division-I level after returning to the FBS this past offseason in Alabama's recruiting class. Here is everything you need to know about Alabama defensive lineman Fatutoa Henry entering the 2025 season. Fatutoa Henry player information Position: Defensive Line Jersey Number: No. 14 Height: 6'4 Weight: 268 Class: Redshirt Junior Hometown: Lawndale, California High School: Leuzinger Fatutoa Henry career stats While new to Alabama this season, Henry is a familiar face to college football who originally began his career back in 2022 at Oklahoma prior to spending the last two seasons at Cerritos College in California. Redshirting at Oklahoma, Henry appeared in 16 games across the 2023-24 seasons where he posted a combined 63 tackles, 13.5 TFL, 5.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery. Fatutoa Henry 2024 stats Henry's 2024 season was spent at Cerritos College in California, his second with the program. Across six games last season, Henry had 20 tackles, six TFL, two sacks, and a fumble recovery. Fatutoa Henry recruiting ranking Coming out of high school, Henry was considered as the nation's No. 401 overall player in the 2022 recruiting class, per the 247Sports Composite rankings, prior to attending Oklahoma for a season. Rated a four-star prospect, Henry was also considered the No. 33 overall edge rusher in the class, as well as the No. 29 player in the state of California where he attended Leuzinger High School. Prior to Alabama, Henry was ranked as the nation's No. 2 overall JUCO prospect in the 2025 class, per 247Sports, as well as the No. 2 JUCO defensive lineman. A four-star prospect who committed to Alabama in Oct. 2024 where he flipped his commitment from Mississippi State, Henry was also considered the No. 1 JUCO prospect in California where he attended Cerritos College. Fatutoa Henry 2025 season outlook Similar to teammate Steve Bolo Mboumoua, could Henry make an immediate impact as a junior college addition for Alabama this season? When looking at Henry's potential impact in 2025, the redshirt junior could potentially line up at multiple spots along Alabama's defensive front, most notably at bandit. However, Henry is not currently expected to start with returning starter LT Overton back in 2025, meaning that the JUCO addition is likely a depth option to begin the season. However, Henry should still see some action in 2025, and could potentially emerge into a larger role as the season goes along. Fatutoa Henry 2025 season prediction 2025 Prediction: 10 tackles, 1.5 TFL, 1 sack Contact/Follow us @RollTideWire on X, and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Alabama news, notes and opinion.

YouTube now second only to BBC as media destination
YouTube has become the UK's second most-watched media service, behind only the BBC, according to Ofcom's annual report. One in five young viewers go to the video sharing platform first when they turn on their smart TVs, the country's media watchdog found, while older people also watch more of its content. Generation Alpha - aged four to 15 - turn to YouTube first while people aged over 55 are watching nearly twice as much YouTube as they did two years ago. Ofcom's interim group director for strategy and research, Ed Leighton, said scheduled TV is "increasingly alien" to younger viewers, with YouTube now "the first port of call for many" when they pick up the remote. "But we're also seeing signs that older adults are turning to the platform as part of their daily media diet too," he noted. 'Moving to meet audiences' Not only is YouTube's audience changing, but so too is the content it showcases. Half of the platform's top-trending videos now more closely resemble traditional TV, including long-form interviews and game shows; positioning it as a direct competitor to ad-supported TV services, while offering broadcasters a way to reach younger and wider audiences. Public service broadcasters, Mr Leighton added, are "recognising this shift" and "moving to meet audiences in the online spaces where they increasingly spend their time". He continued: "But we need to see even more ambition in this respect to ensure that public service media that audiences value survives long into the future." The reports shows that overall though, people spent 4% less time watching broadcast TV in 2024 than the previous year, with average daily viewing dropping to two hours 24 minutes on TV sets. This trend was particularly driven by young adults (16-24), who watched just 17 minutes of live TV daily. Just under half of this age group (45%) tuned into broadcast TV weekly, down from 48% in 2023. Despite the rise of streaming, broadcast television still accounts for 56% of in-home viewing. This is especially true around Christmas, as festive favourites topped the list of last year's most-watched moments: Gavin and Stacy: The Finale was the most watched programme last year on linear telly (18.6 million, including catch-up) That was followed in second place by Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (16.9m). The fourth episode of Mr Bates vs The Post Office came in third (14.7m) The men's Euro 2024 football final between England and Spain was the most-watched live sporting event of last year, across the BBC, ITV and STV (19.8m) In the first quarter of this year, Netflix's Adolescence was the most-watched TV event (12.2m), making it the first time a streaming title has topped the weekly TV ratings The nation's listening habits are reportedly evolving as well, as more than nine in 10 UK adults (93%) listen to some form of audio content each week, increasing to 98% of 16-34-year-olds. YouTube (47%) and Spotify (36%) are the most popular online audio services, while BBC Sounds is the most popular from a radio broadcaster (24%). The report underlined how podcasts are also increasingly available in video as well as audio form. It comes in the same month that Ofcom said YouTube should give videos made by channels such as the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 more promotion to help tackle a "serious threat" to the UK's public service broadcasting. UK broadcasters 'need urgent boost from YouTube'

UK travel advice updated for 17 countries after Russia earthquake and tsunamis
The UK Foreign Office has updated travel advice for 17 countries after one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded hit Russia. The 8.8-magnitude earthquake hit the east coast of Russia on Wednesday (July 30), at 12.25am BST. It has caused tsunami waves in Japan and Alaska and prompted warnings for Hawaii, North and Central America and the Pacific islands south toward New Zealand. Following the tremor, fresh travel guidance has been issued for those heading to a number of countries.

In a statement, the Foreign Office said: "An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 8.7 has struck the eastern coast of Russia in the Kamchatka Peninsula region. "A tsunami threat message has been issued by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre. "If you are in the affected areas potentially affected by the earthquake or tsunami, you should follow the advice of the local authorities." Tsunami warnings issued after earthquake in Russia The earthquake had a preliminary magnitude of 8.0, but was later updated to 8.8. It has caused tsunami waves in Japan and Alaska and prompted warnings for Hawaii, North and Central America and the Pacific islands south toward New Zealand. Ports on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia near the quake's epicentre were flooded as residents fled inland, and white waves washed up to the shore in northern Japan. The quake was centred about 74 miles east-southeast of the Russian city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, which has a population of 180,000, on the Kamchatka Peninsula. Multiple aftershocks as strong as 6.9 magnitude followed. The first tsunami wave hit the coastal area of Severo-Kurilsk, the main settlement on Russia's Kuril Islands in the Pacific, according to the local governor Valery Limarenko.
