Florida baseball's sophomore left-handed pitcher Frank Menendez enters transfer portal

Florida baseball's sophomore southpaw Frank Menendez has entered the NCAA transfer portal, according to a report from Swamp247 on Thursday. The 6-foot-1-inch sophomore originally from Miami, Florida, only appeared in five games last season out of the bullpen, amassing a 1-0 record with a 1.29 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and .185 batting average against before an arm injury ended his 2025 campaign. His strong start also included 12 strikeouts versus three walks in seven innings while posting a 15.4 K/9, 3.9 BB/9 and 4.0 K:BB ratio. During his rookie season, Menendez appeared in 17 games as a reliever, logging a 1-0 record along with a 4.96 ERA and .277 batting average against while striking out 14 batters in 16 1/3 innings of work. In both seasons, he has only had one fielding chance, making good on that opportunity for a 1.000 fielding percentage. Menendez's departure marks the eighth member of the Orange and Blue to seek greener pastures through the transfer portal, joining fellow left-handers hurlers Jacob Gomberg and Niko Janssens, as well as right-handers Alex Philpott, Carson Montsdeoca and Felix Ong. The program also saw catchers Cole Bullen and Brock Clayton head out through the transfer portal.

Notre Dame announces men's basketball 2025-26 non-conference schedule

Notre Dame has completed its men's basketball non-conference schedule for the 2025-26 season and has now officially announced who they will face. The Fighting Irish will have two exhibition games: one at Butler (October 17) and then at home against DePaul (October 24) inside Purcell Pavilion. The regular season then begins with three straight home games against LIU Brooklyn (November 3), Detroit Mercy (November 7) and Eastern Illinois (November 11). ND will play its first road game at Ohio State on November 15 before hosting Bellarmine on November 19. Then the team will head to Las Vegas to compete in the Players Era tournament with games against Kansas, Rutgers and a team to be determined (off of win-losses and point differential) from November 24-26. In December, the Irish will host Missouri in the ACC/SEC Challenge on December 2 before playing their final road non-conference game at TCU on December 5. They close out their non-conference slate with three straight home games against Idaho (December 10), Evansville (December 13) and Purdue Fort Wayne (December 21). After a disappointing 2024-25 season, Notre Dame will look to rebound this coming year and hopefully make a return to the NCAA Tournament.

Notre Dame finds its 2027 quarterback, as 4-star Georgia prospect Teddy Jarrard commits

It is hard to find a hotter team recruiting than Notre Dame football at the moment, and on Thursday the good times kept rolling at 2027 Georgia quarterback Teddy Jarrard committed. The Irish beat out Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State for the 6-foot, 3-inch and 190-pounder, adding the No. 195 overall prospect in the 247Sports Composite Rankings to its class. The Irish have made significant changes to the way they recruit since Marcus Freeman was elevated to head coach, and one of the biggest differences we have seen is the recruiting at the quarterback position. Jarrard is the latest to join the fold, as in the last few years we have seen CJ Carr, Kenny Minchey, Blake Hebert and soon to sign Noah Grubbs getting added to Notre Dame's roster. Over the next two years, the newest Irish quarterback commit will see an uptick in his high school competition after transferring to North Cobb in Kennesaw, a much tougher division. As a prospect, Jarrard has everything you are looking for, size, speed, arm strength and anticipation. He won the Rivals 5-star quarterback challenge last month, and could see a big jump in his ranking as he gets closer to his signing date. This was a massive recruiting win for Notre Dame and we are certainly excited to see Jarrard wearing the Blue and Gold in the future.
