Georgia's 41-21 win over Mississippi State might've been the most complete performance of the season. Gunner Stockton looked calm, confident, and in total control, tossing three touchdowns and leading an offense that piled up more than 300 rushing yards. Starkville delivered plenty of patriotism, plenty of cowbells, and surprisingly, the best lemonade I've ever had. Georgia's 900th win added an extra layer of nostalgia, leading to a look back at some of the most memorable Bulldog victories. On the field, the offense clicked on all cylinders, the defense completely smothered Mississippi State after the opening drive, and the special teams stayed flawless. By the end, it was clear this team is starting to peak at the perfect time. We with playoff talk, a wild SEC roundup, and a teaser of the upcoming showdown against Texas in Athens.

Fantasy For Real
(#129) A Big Weekend up ahead for 2026 QBs, Early Declare & Super Senior status by position, and some NFL Leaderboards after Week 9

Today's episode of the podcast covers some NFL Leaderboards, dives into a discussion about Early Declare and Super Senior statuses, and then finishes with the Week 11 Discussion. As usual, I did not write up the NFL Notes, but I do have at least some brief observations about Early Declare and Super Senior status by position group. This is not meant to be a definitive study, more an observation about where the league is and recent trends. After that, as always, the Week 11 Preview which looks forward to some crucial 2026 QB match-ups. Early Declares and Super Seniors by PositionFor this an analysis, an Early Declare is anyone who leaves college the minimum 3 years after high school. A Super Senior is anyone who leaves college 5+ years after high school. To be clear, I don't think the analysis is re-inventing the wheel in any way, shape, or form and much of this is probably self-evident to at least some people, but I would wager even some of those people might be shocked by the degree in some of these points. * This should surprise no one, but the QB position is the only position — particularly at the top — where being a Super Senior is not a detriment particularly relative to being an early declare in recent memory. Several elite QBs (Jayden Daniels, Joe Burrow, Bo Nix) are Super Seniors, and QB is the only position where choosing between the top three Early Declares and top three Super Seniors would be a debate; the top 3 Early Declares on KTC right now are Lamar Jackson, Drake Maye, and Patrick Mahomes, so they still may have the edge here, but compare that to WR where the KTC rankings would make a similar comparison Ricky Pearsall, Jayden Reed, and Terry McLaurin v Ja'Marr Chase, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Justin Jefferson. * RB is the position where the TOP END is the most dominated by Early Declares. The top 6 RBs and 13 of the top 14 RBs are Early Declares (Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, Jonathan Taylor, Ashton Jeanty, De'Von Achane, Omarion Hampton, Quinshon Judkins, Bucky Irving, Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, Breece Hall, Josh Jacobs, Kyren Williams). That said, the gap between simply being a senior and a super senior, at least in the moment, seems less extreme at RB compared to WR. James Cook is the other RB in the Top 14, and as a 4th Year player, he creates the biggest divide between Senior and Super Senior, but players like Chase Brown, Jaylen Warren, and before his injury Cam Skattebo are more highly valuable to their positions relative to the Seniors and compared to the WR position. * At WR, within the top 24, there is a 2/3 to 1/3 preference towards the Early Declares, with 8 Early Declare WRs in the top 12 and 16 Early Declare WRs in the top 24. Beyond that though, the most unique aspect of WRs in this analysis is the complete lack of players achieving significant success after becoming Super Seniors. Ricky Pearsall and Jayden Reed have had some relative success aside from injuries, but injuries are a relevant reality in the sport, and if they do not turn their careers around soon, the biggest 5th Year WR hit since Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel — both of whom are ~30 YO now — is probably Rashid Shaheed? Or perhaps still Jayden Reed even with the injuries. Since the podcast, Deebo has fallen out of the Top 50 and Shaheed has risen into the top 50, but essentially these 5 WRs are the 5 that rest near or above the fringe of WR50. That is a very small number of relevant players throughout the entire position. * As one additional note, among the 8 WRs who have Senior (not super) status in the Top 24 on KTC, four of these eight WRs (Egbuka, Odunze, DeVonta, Olave) had an excellent season with high draft status prior to returning for their four season. Two more of these WRs (Ladd & Puka) were heavily impacted by injuries throughout their collegiate careers. This is why, in my eyes, even the bar for a fourth year player at the WR position should be very high or have significant excuse as to why they were not able to become more successful earlier in their careers. My belief is that this is because WR is so skills driven that early skills development is still underrated in the scouting process. This is admittedly not the most optimistic analysis, and I did not spin it directly like this on the podcast, but there is a reason that I bring all these items up on a Show/Sub that slants to the NFL Draft: There's some evidence that being an Early Declare for Dante Moore would be more enticing for teams to the extent that it might help him stay in the First Round relative to maybe a similar QB with a similar season who was a 4th Year player, but the fact that so many of those QBs being drafted as Early Declares are on the bottom of the top 20-28 QBs might suggest that for Dante Moore, if he wants to be a very good QB, staying at Oregon might be the most logical decision. And for Fernando Mendoza and Ty Simpson, while at other positions returning for a 5th Year would be a detriment, there's not necessarily anything obvious in the numbers right now — particularly if your goal is to be a very good QB — that suggests going back for a 5th Year is a bad idea. At RB, our top two don't need discussed here, but particularly as Jonah Coleman may re-enter the RB2 conversation with the injury to Justice Haynes, this is just another sign that Coleman best abilities might lie in FLOOR and not CEILING. And at WR, luckily our top three are fine here — it is part of what makes them the top 3. Jordyn Tyson is the only senior, but he slides nicely into that category that also fits Egbuka, DeVonta, Odunze, and Olave. The concern is more as we get into the stages where Chris Bell, Germie Bernard, and even Denzel Boston are becoming first round picks that people are excited about. Boston scores okay compared to those players, but is a clear step down. Bell and Bernard are not particularly close. That doesn't mean they can't be very good WRs, but unless there is more well-rounded development, they are the two players right now where they seem like they may slip into my own 1st Round, but in most drafts I would not want to rank them with a Top 12 grade. Make sure to check out the Fantasy for Real podcast where I go over these games in preparation for Week 11.After a few weeks where the match-ups for the 2026 QBs were not quite as exciting, this weekend showcases many of our top QBs matched up in important games. The biggest match-up and Game of the Week features LSU & Garrett Nussmeier taking on Alabama & Ty Simpson, with Nussmeier in particular needing to take advantage of the limited opportunities he has left before the 2026 NFL Draft. Aside from this top game, both Dante Moore and Fernando Mendoza find themselves against tricky defenses in road environments. This is another big opportunity week for the 2026 QB Class with plenty of other big games to look through as well. Friday Night LightsNorthwestern @ USC at 9:00 PM on FOXKey Players: Griffin Wilde, WR, Northwestern (2026) ; Jayden Maiava, QB, USC (2026) ; Makai Lemon, WR, USC (2026) ; Ja'Kobi Lane, WR, USC (2026)Not too much action late Friday night, but USC does have one of the most intriguing teams for the 2026 NFL Draft in particular. While the injury to Waymond Jordan and playing through injuries for Ja'Kobi Lane has limited some of the intrigue, this team still features two potential Day 2 or higher WRs including a top 3 WR in Makai Lemon. QB Jayden Maiava flirted with the First Round QB conversation, but right now seems to be firmly on the outside looking in after poor performances the last two weeks. This game is unlikely to get him back in the conversation, but it can get him on the right track for at least Day 2 moving forward. For Northwestern, Griffin Wilde remains an intriguing, productive player within College Football. A third year player in his first year in the Big Ten, Wilde is very likely the most important member of the Northwestern offense.Week 11 College Football GAMEDAY PreviewsGAME OF THE WEEKLSU @ Alabama at 7:30 PM on ABCKey Players: Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU (2026) ; Harlem Berry, RB, LSU (2028) ; Caden Durham, RB, LSU (2027) ; Aaron Anderson, WR, LSU (2026) ; Trey'Dez Green, TE, LSU (2027) ; Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama (2026) ; Jamarion Miller, RB, Alabama (2026) ; Daniel Hill, RB, Alabama (2027) ; Ryan Williams, WR, Alabama (2027) ; Lotzeir Brooks, WR, Alabama (2028) ; Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama (2026) ; Isaiah Horton, WR, Alabama (2026)Very likely the “Game of the Week” this week pits QBs Garrett Nussmeier and Ty Simpson against each other, each with the ability to raise their stock in the upcoming NFL Draft. For Nussmeier, a player without eligibility and a nearly nonexistent path to the CFB Playoff, this will be one of the last opportunities to make an impression. If Simpson wishes to enter the 2026 NFL Draft, that might be true for him as well, though Simpson will have more post-season opportunities most likely. Simpson has showcased excellent ability to play the QB position, but as someone with very few starts, Simpson is still an incomplete picture.These teams are also quite similar in how they have matched-up on Offense this year, with the exception of Simpson being able to execute in the difficult situations that Nussmeier has struggled in. But on the ground, both teams have struggled quite a bit this season. LSU has seemingly found something in RB Harlem Berry adding a bit more consistency on the ground the last couple of weeks, and between the true freshman and sophomore RB Caden Durham, LSU definitely has a very intriguing tandem on the ground. For Alabama, the most intriguing RB at this stage for NFL futures is probably 244-lb sophomore Daniel Hill. And while they are different shapes and sizes significantly, each team features some elite upside at pass-catching positions. Trey'Dez Green of LSU has been a match-up nightmare on paper for his entire career, but the last three games have begun to bring that theory into reality. He is currently my TE1 in all of College Football, with a significant gap between Green and anyone else. On the complete opposite side of the size spectrum, Ryan Williams of Alabama is an elite prospect, still 18-Years Old, but needs to work on his consistency particularly with his hands. Aside from Williams, potential fantasy 1st-Round pick Germie Bernard and true freshman Lotzeir Brooks make up a dangerous trio that also includes other supplemental players like Isaiah Horton. This is one of the more intriguing and multi-faceted games we have had in a few weeks, with huge 2026 NFL Draft implications from primarily the QB position as well as depth in future talent at RB, WR, and TE.TOP GAME #2Texas A&M @ Missouri at 3:30 PM on ABCKey Players: Kevin Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M (2026) ; Mario Craver, WR, Texas A&M (2027) ; Ashton Bethel-Roman, WR, Texas A&M (2027) ; Ahmad Hardy, RB, Missouri (2027) ; Donovan Olugbode, WR, Missouri (2028) ; Kevin Coleman Jr., WR, Missouri (2026) ; Brett Norfleet, TE, Missouri (2026)While players like mobile QB Marcel Reed and 3rd-year RB Rueben Owens have started to make an impact and enter into potentially draftable conversations, the strength of the Texas A&M Aggies remains the WR room. Kevin Concepcion is a fringe top-10 player on my Fantasy Big Board for the upcoming NFL Draft, and while Mario Craver's size may restrict him from being a 1st Round pick, both of these WRs have flashed playmaking ability at the highest levels of College Football. While it was only 1 Catch in his follow-up performance, Ashton Bethel-Roman is a second year WR and highly recruited player who has made an impact in each of the last two games, including 130 Receiving Yards on just 43 Routes (3.02 Y/RR). Bethel-Roman is behind his teammates so far in production, but he is also the only WR listed in this room at 6' tall. For Missouri, Ahmad Hardy is having a phenomenal season for a 19-Year-Old RB in the SEC even after the fall-off in performance against SEC play, but that fall-off is something that Hardy will need to rectify a bit and showcase that his rushing style can translate to the NFL level. Kevin Coleman Jr. is a YAC receiver with some promise at the NFL level, while Brett Norfleet is a TE with excellent size. The most intriguing pass catcher for Missouri may be the true freshman, Donovan Olugbode, who at least should be seen as potentially the highest upside Devy player of the group.Tough Road Spots for VERY Important QBsIndiana @ Penn State at Noon on FOXKey Players: Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana (2026) ; Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana (2026) ; Kaytron Allen, RB, Penn State (2026) ; Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State (2026)Just like last week against Ohio State, this is not the Penn State team we were expecting. Even some teams that have fall-offs like Florida retain a high degree of intrigue for this list, but Penn State's lack of pass catching weapons and injury to QB Drew Allar knock them from an intriguing team to a pair of RBs, one of which in Nicholas Singleton has been a massive disappointment so far this season. Singleton will look to take on his last major opportunity as a College Football player this weekend alongside the RB getting all of the work, Kaytron Allen. The main focal point for this game though will be Fernando Mendoza. It's not entirely fair as the team Oregon beat had aspirations for a National Championship and a different Head Coach, but this is an intriguing pair of games between this game and Oregon's game this week, as both Mendoza and Oregon's Dante Moore get to play in a road environment that we have seen the other play in already this season. OSU's Julian Sayin ripped Penn State apart last week, which likely takes away some ability for Mendoza to get much credit for doing the same even on the road, but this may be the biggest regular season test remaining for Mendoza, who is one of the most likely QBs to appear in the College Football Playoff. If this game is not a sufficient test for Mendoza, it seems less likely that Mendoza will find a test in the next two opponents, Wisconsin & Purdue, who are a combined 4-13.Oregon @ Iowa at 3:30 PM onKey Players: Dante Moore, QB, Oregon (2026) ; Dierre Hill Jr., RB, Oregon (2028) ; Jordan Davison, RB, Oregon (2028) ; Dakorien Moore, WR, Oregon (2028) ; Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon (2026) ; Kamari Moulton, RB, Iowa (2026)While RB Kamari Moulton has had a few good games for Iowa this season, the ranking of this game so highly in the Weekly Preview is entirely about the Oregon offense – which has struggled in two of the past three games – facing a tough Iowa Defense on the Road. The Wisconsin game was a sloppy, weather-influenced mess, but with so little experience and a limited number of games against top teams, QB Dante Moore will need to take advantage of the opportunities in front of him. As mentioned above, this Iowa game also creates a point of comparison between Moore and Mendoza, and unlike Penn State, this environment is probably going to be seen as fairly similar situationally. Kenyon Sadiq might still be my #1 TE, but he has been one of the more disappointing players so far in 2025. If he wishes to enter the draft and be taken as a true and promising TE1, Sadiq will likely need to show a bit more consistency throughout the rest of the season. Outside of these two, Oregon has a number of intriguing freshman between #1 HS freshman WR Dakorien Moore and the RBs, Dierre Hill Jr. and Jordan Davison.Other Games to Watch this WeekendGeorgia @ Mississippi State at Noon on ESPNKey Players: Nate Frazier, RB, Georgia (2027) ; Chauncey Bowens, RB, Georgia (2027) ; Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia (2026) ; Fluff Bothwell, RB, Mississippi State (2027) ; Brenen Thompson, WR, Mississippi State (2026) ; Anthony Evans III, WR, Mississippi State (2026)The early season fumbles got Nate Frazier in the doghouse, but he has played better the last few weeks and has gone four Gs now without a fumble. Chauncey Bowens is not nearly the highly touted prospect that Frazier is, but he is the RB who broke the two big explosive carries in Georgia's most recent victory against Florida. WR Zachariah Branch has been increasingly reliable with excellent YAC skills, and if this most recent game can showcase a bit more growth in areas aside from a “Gadget” role, Branch is someone with elite athletic upside (at his size). There isn't a player necessarily approaching Day 2 on my Watchlist from Mississippi State, but at least three players are in a Draftable range. Fluff Bothwell has excellent size and could grow into a solid SEC RB with another year remaining before he can enter the NFL Draft, and Brenen Thompson (Deep) and Anthony Evans (Underneath) each have clear utilities and limitations.BYU @ Texas Tech at Noon on ABCKey Players: Bear Bachmeier, QB, BYU (2028) ; L.J. Martin, RB, BYU (2026)A huge game for College Football and a smaller game for our purposes, this is the first real opportunity to spotlight freshman QB Bear Bachmeier, who will not be draft eligible until 2028. Right now, Bachmeier is not necessarily getting as much love with three current starting freshman QB with better tools (Underwood, Sagapolutele, & Washington), but as a true freshman leading an undefeated BYU team, Bachmeier deserves a lot of credit. Aside from Bachmeier, there are a few intriguing RBs in this game, most notably BYU RB L.J. Martin. Texas Tech also features a pair of sophomores in J'Koby Williams & Cameron Dickey.Maryland @ Rutgers at 2:30 PM on Fox Sports 1Key Players: Malik Washington, QB, Maryland (2028) ; Antwan Raymond, RB, Rutgers (2027) ; Ian Strong, WR, Rutgers (2026) ; K.J. Duff, WR, Rutgers (2027)Maryland & QB Malik Washington will look to bounce back after a rough home loss to Indiana. Rutgers' defense has been the team you want to play so far this year when you need to get back on track as a Passing Offense, and so hopefully for Washington this is the case on Saturday. For Rutgers, while the team performance has not been great in recent weeks, the trio of Antwan Raymond, Ian Strong, and Future WR Riser of the Week(s) K.J. Duff make Rutgers a sneaky interesting team. If Strong wants to enter the 2026 NFL Draft, he likely needs to start having some of his biggest performances down the stretch. For Duff, there is a clear opportunity to put up 1,000+ Yards and be on every Watchlist heading into the 2026 CFB Season including NFL Watchlists, All-American Watchlists, and Biletnikoff Watchlists.Auburn @ Vanderbilt at 4:00 PM on SEC NetworkKey Players: Jeremiah Cobb, RB, Auburn (2026) ; Cam Coleman, WR, Auburn (2027) ; Eric Singleton Jr., WR, Auburn (2026) ; Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt (2026)The post-Hugh Freeze era begins with a tough road test against Vanderbilt. While I will be the first to congratulate Auburn on what is hopefully a brighter future moving forward, unfortunately for the Tigers, getting rid of Freeze does not come with an upgrade at QB, and that has been the issue for Auburn throughout the season. Cam Coleman remains the headliner for this team, an elite WR talent with potential to be a top 5-10 pick in the NFL Draft, but the numbers have not quite been there yet. Eric Singleton Jr. has excellent YAC ability, speed, and is very young for being Draft Eligible, but has struggled to produce this season specifically outside of a very limited, gadget role. Jeremiah Cobb has not necessarily entered the Day 2 conversation yet, but he has become the clear lead back for Auburn. Vanderbilt TE Eli Stowers had his first truly good game of the season against Texas, and will look to continue that momentum against Auburn. Stowers is #2 in the FBS for Receiving Yards at the TE position.California @ Louisville at 7:00 PM on ESPN2Key Players: Jaron Keawe-Sagapolutele, QB, California (2028) ; Isaac Brown, RB, Louisville (2027) ; Chris Bell, WR, Louisville (2026)One player for each of the next three Draft Classes (at least in terms of when they can first enter the NFL Draft), for 2026, Louisville's Chris Bell has excellent size, athleticism, and could develop into an excellent WR, but he is also fairly raw for someone being discussed within the 1st Round. Isaac Brown has excellent explosive ability, speed, and creation ability, but the latter in particular is hard to know how it will translate going from the ACC to the NFL at under 200 lbs. Brown will look to continue his recent dominant stretch against Cal. And then against Louisville will be Cal QB Jaron Keawe-Sagapolutele. Sagapolutele had his third multi-turnover game of the season this past weekend against Virginia, but continues to show signs that if he can manage those TOs in particular that he can be a potential NFL Starter / future 1st Round Pick.Florida State @ Clemson at 7:00 PM on ACCNKey Players: Ousmane Kromah, RB, Florida State (2028) ; Micahi Danzy, WR, Florida State (2027) ; Duce Robinson, WR, Florida State (2026) ; Cade Klubnik, QB, Clemson (2026) ; Gideon Davidson, RB, Clemson (2028) ; T.J. Moore, WR, Clemson (2027) ; Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson (2026) ; Tristan Smith, WR, Clemson (2026)This game against Florida State and Clemson – even with the injury to Bryant Wesco Jr. – could potentially be an excellent showcase of WR talent in the next two Draft Classes. The big name eligible for the Draft this year is likely this Week's WR Riser of the Week(s), Antonio Williams. Williams will look to build on his first great game of the season against Florida State, and alongside Williams will be former SE Missouri St. WR Tristan Smith and sophomore T.J. Moore. It was actually Smith who had the more targets between the pairing last week, but Moore is the player within this trio that generally seems to be highest rated in Devy. Most likely the offense runs through Williams & Moore, but it would not be a surprise to see Smith – who offers a bit of a different skillset at 6' 5” – getting more involved. For Florida State, two excellent explosive athletes in Duce Robinson and Micahi Danzy will look to make explosive plays downfield or potentially even in the running game. Danzy has been a future Riser recently, and Robinson is at least an athlete worth monitoring. Aside from the WR positions, Cade Klubnik will need to continue and play well to hopefully restore his Draft Stock even to Day 2, and there are a pair of intriguing freshmen RBs who may make appearances in this game between Ousmane Kromah and Gideon Davidson.//Not too much to add today, and I should be back on Tuesday to discuss these 2026 QB Games most of all.

In this episode, we relive Georgia's dramatic 44–41 road win over Tennessee in Neyland Stadium. We cover everything from our Pigeon Forge trip to the Vol Navy tailgating scene and surprisingly cordial Tennessee fans. The Dawgs overcame a 21–7 deficit behind Gunner Stockton's breakout 304-yard, 3-TD performance, a dominant second-half rushing drive, and clutch plays from Colbie Young, Zachariah Branch, and London Humphreys. We dig into Kirby Smart's culture win and why Georgia's offensive line shuffle and defensive lapses still leave room for improvement. Special teams excellence, Tennessee's kicker meltdown, and updated AP poll talk round things out before rapid-fire reactions to Clemson's struggles, Miami's rise, A&M's thriller over Notre Dame, and Vanderbilt's shocker at South Carolina. A much-needed bye week looms before the massive showdown with Alabama in Athens.

Jay Greeson, Chris Lee and Chase Robinson give predictions on Georgia's road trip to Tennessee in an ESPN Game Day special. The contest will be shown at 3:30 Eastern on ESPN. Topics include: The line has swung wildly at FanDuel in the first 24 hours--Jay Greeson gives an explanation here that you may not have considered. Tennessee's offense has been the talk of the matchup. Quarterback Joey Aguilar averages 9.1 yards per attempt and hasn't thrown an interception in 59 tries vs. Syracuse and East Tennessee State, and wide receiver Chris Brazzell III has been one of the league's best receivers so far. The Vols' three-headed rushing attack of Star Thomas, DeSean Bishop and Peyton Lewis has gotten a ton of work. But Tennessee hasn't faced a defense with the type of NFL talent Georgia has. This will be a battle of who can hold the football longer. The Vols ran 100 plays vs. ETSU, while Georgia has out-snapped opponents 152-103 in two games. Georgia quarterback Gunnar Stockton was more mobile than expected in Week 1. But the offense has averaged a pedestrian six yards a play in two weeks, though the Bulldogs' tendency under coach Kirby Smart has been to play vanilla offense against overmatched opponents like the Bulldogs have seen in Marshall and Austin Peay. Georgia was without starting offensive linemen Earnest Greene III and Juan Gaston last week, and each is questionable for this game as of Monday. Georgia's not utilized talents like tight end Oscar Delp and receiver Noah Thomas early, but each could have a much bigger role this week. The Vols will need to watch talented receiver Zachariah Branch at all times, as he has game-breaking speed. Kirby Smart's Georgia team has owned the series recently, but the Vols are at home in front of a deafening crowd with the cheapest tickets on the secondary market going for over $350 early in the week!

Simon1025GDP Script/ Top Stories for August 26th Publish Date: August 26th PRE-ROLL: From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, August 26th and Happy Birthday to Melissa McCarthy I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Duluth's Notre Dame Academy celebrates two decades of 'seeing every student' Former Kennedy Center manager returns to Gwinnett to lead Lawrenceville Arts Center Dick Goodman remembered for support of libraries, Suwanee community All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG (07.14.22 KIA MOG) STORY 1: Duluth's Notre Dame Academy celebrates two decades of 'seeing every student' For nearly 20 years, Julie Derucki has started her mornings the same way: a long commute, a quiet walk through the halls flipping on lights, and then, at 7:50 a.m., she’s at the front door, greeting every single student with warmth and intention. Rain, shine, freezing cold—it doesn’t matter. It’s her thing. Notre Dame Academy, a Marist Catholic school in Duluth, has spent 20 years building more than just academics. It’s a community—a village, really—where students are seen, known, and loved. Teacher Regan Jolley-Sherman felt it the moment she interviewed. From international potlucks to family picnics, Notre Dame celebrates its people. And while academics matter, Derucki’s focus is clear: raising empathetic, grounded leaders. STORY 2: Former Kennedy Center manager returns to Gwinnett to lead Lawrenceville Arts Center Daniela Esteves is coming back to Gwinnett, and this time, she’s taking the reins as complex general manager of the Lawrenceville Arts Center. Most recently with the Kennedy Center in D.C., Esteves has done it all—programming, marketing, event management, you name it. She even spent a couple of years at Gas South District in Duluth before heading north. Lawrenceville’s Arts Center isn’t just a venue—it’s a hub for connection and culture. And with Esteves at the helm, it’s poised to thrive. STORY 3: Dick Goodman remembered for support of libraries, Suwanee community Dick Goodman wore many hats in his 83 years—city councilman, PR pro, photographer, library advocate, and the first chair of Suwanee’s Public Art Commission. But more than titles, he was a storyteller, a community builder, and a man who poured his heart into everything he touched. Goodman passed away last week, leaving behind a legacy that’s woven into the fabric of Suwanee. After moving to Suwanee in 2006, it didn’t take long for him to dive in. By 2009, he was on the City Council, later chairing the Gwinnett Library Board for eight years. Today, a room at the Suwanee library bears his name—a fitting tribute for someone who championed the power of stories. Even in his final hours, Goodman was at a Suwanee planning meeting, still giving back. His family is now raising funds to make the “Novel Idea” sculpture—a granite bench shaped like books—a permanent part of the library he loved so much. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: MONSTER JAM STORY 4: Pirates of Lanier Charity Poker Run set for September For over a decade, the Pirates of Lanier Charity Poker Run has been a highlight for boaters on Lake Lanier, and this year, it’s getting a shake-up. Zach Martin, a longtime participant, is stepping in as the 2025 organizer, and he’s bringing back the big powerboats. This year’s event, running Sept. 12-13, will benefit K9s for Warriors and the Foster Care Support Foundation—causes close to Martin’s heart. The weekend will feature everything from a helicopter photoshoot to raft-ups at Cocktail Cove, with nightly stops at Margaritaville and Lanier Islands Resort. For details, visit www.lanierislands.com. STORY 5: Discount retailer Burlington opening store in Lawrenceville Lawrenceville’s about to get a new spot for bargain hunters—Burlington is opening a store at the Shoppes at Creekside, right off State Route 316 at 860 Duluth Highway. The grand opening? Sometime this fall. Burlington’s pitch? Big brands, small prices—up to 60% less than other retailers. Clothes, shoes, home decor, beauty products, baby gear, even pet toys—it’s all there. And the new store will feature their updated layout with bold signs and organized aisles, making it easier to snag those deals. This will be Burlington’s 38th Georgia location and sixth in Gwinnett. They’re hiring now—apply at BurlingtonStores.jobs. We’ll be right back. Break: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: ART BEAT: Artist-photographer Debra Barnhart launches new Instagram site filled with wildlife Rudyard Kipling once called Yellowstone “a howling wilderness… full of unimaginable freaks of fiery nature.” Debra Barnhart? She saw it differently. Her February trip with National Geographic wasn’t easy. Snow, ice, and heavy camera gear tested her resolve. The result? Stunning wildlife photos—bison dusted in snow, a white owl, and more. Her new Instagram, Debra Barnhart Nature Photography, showcases it all. STORY 7: Georgia Bulldogs Readying for Saturday's Season Opener The Georgia Bulldogs are easing into the 2025 season, but don’t let that fool you—things are about to get intense. First up? Marshall this Saturday at Sanford Stadium. Then it’s straight into the SEC gauntlet: Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky, Auburn, Ole Miss. Buckle up. On offense, it’s a new era. Gunner Stockton, the Rabun County legend, finally gets his shot after Carson Beck’s transfer. Stockton? He’s ready—quiet confidence, big arm, and a fresh set of weapons, including USC transfer Zachariah Branch and Illinois’ Josh McCray. Defense? Still Georgia’s pride. Sure, they’ve got holes to fill—NFL-sized ones—but returners like C.J. Allen and Daylen Everette are stepping up. Tackling? A work in progress, Smart admits. New faces, new challenges, same Georgia standard. Let’s see how it plays out. We’ll have closing comments after this.

 Date: August 6, 2025Hosts: John Arrington, Aaron Wilcox, Andy StarrGuests: None In this episode of the Devy Devotional podcast, the hosts deliver their annual "Hot Takes" edition, offering bold predictions about college football players and their future prospects in the NFL. The trio skips the usual "Guess the Guy" segment to dive deep into their spicy opinions, rated on a Taco Bell sauce scale: Mild, Hot, Fire, and Diablo. The episode blends fun with actionable insights, reflecting on past predictions and unveiling new ones for the 2025 season and beyond.Key HighlightsReflection on Past Takes: The hosts revisit their hot takes from the previous year, highlighting successes like Aaron's call on the 2025 running back class generating hype (e.g., Ashton Jeanty, TreVeyon Henderson) and Eric Singleton Jr. rising to a top-five Devy wide receiver. John's standout prediction of Jordan Tyson surpassing Zachariah Branch earned a Diablo rating and proved prescient, with Tyson now a contender for WR1 in the 2026 class.Hot Takes Galore: Each host shares multiple bold predictions, with reactions ranging from Mild to Diablo based on their spiciness. The spiciest takes are highlighted below as the episode's key moments.Skipped Segment: The "Guess the Guy" segment is postponed to the next episode, giving Aaron a temporary reprieve (though he's back on the hook next week).Spiciest TakesHere are the standout predictions that earned the highest heat ratings:Aaron Wilcox: Kenyon Sadiq (Oregon TE) will be the next tight end to hit 1,000 receiving yards and become the Devy TE1 this season and beyond. Rating: Diablo Why It's Spicy: With a career A-dot of 1.9 yards and competition from Oregon's talented roster (e.g., Dakorien Moore), Sadiq would need a dramatic role change and 120+ receptions to reach 1,000 yards. Aaron argues Sadiq's explosiveness and a revamped Oregon offense (minus Tess Johnson and Terrence Ferguson) make it possible.Andy Starr: Kendrick Raphael (Cal RB) will be a top-three RB in the ACC for PPR points and rush for 1,000 yards. Rating: Diablo Why It's Spicy: Facing competition from ACC standouts like Damond Claiborne and Mark Fletcher, Raphael's lack of elite talent and Cal's middling offense make this a long shot. Andy cites coach Brian Harson's tendency to feed his RB1 as the rationale.Aaron Wilcox: Sawyer Robertson (Baylor QB) will be a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft. Rating: Hot to Diablo Why It's Spicy: A Baylor QB breaking into the first round is rare, especially with Robertson's unproven status. Aaron points to his size, mobility, and a potential Cam Ward-like rise, though John doubts his skill justifies it.John Arrington: Jayce Brown (Kansas State WR) will outrank Zachariah Branch, Denzel Boston, Eugene Wilson, Antonio Williams, and Carnell Tate, becoming a top-three Devy WR in the 2026 class. Rating: Hot Why It's Spicy: Beating out established names like Carnell Tate is bold, but Jayce Brown's upside at Kansas State could shine as a junior. John sees him as a sleeper ready to break out.Other Notable TakesJohn Arrington: Denzel Boston will be a day-three NFL draft pick (likely sixth round). (Mild) Consensus ranks him as WR16, but John sees him as overhyped and unlikely to rise beyond day three.Andy Starr: Niko Iamaleava will succeed at UCLA, reclaiming first-round draft pick status. (Hot) A bounce-back season could restore his stock, aided by a new OC and JV and Thomas in the backfield.John Arrington: Zachariah Branch won't declare for the 2026 draft and will transfer again. (Mild to Hot) Still ranked WR17, John predicts another flop at Georgia and a transfer.Aaron Wilcox: Darian Mensah (Duke QB) will be a top-five Devy QB by season's end. (Fire) His G5 success and $8M Duke transfer fuel this bold climb.John Arrington: JV and Thomas will be a top-five RB in the 2026 class. (Fire) John compares him to Bucky Irving, hinting at untapped potential.Closing NotesThe episode wraps with a teaser for future discussions, including Andy's unshared take on Diego Pavia, suggesting more spice to come. The hosts encourage listeners to act on these takes—whether trading for Zion Kearney or snagging Jayce Brown—while blending entertainment with Devy insight.Where to Listen: Subscribe on the Gridiron Ratings YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or find it at DynastyLeagueFootball.com.

Texas Tech's Oil Money Is Disturbing College Football

College football is entering a new era, and this episode of the JT Sports Podcast exposes it all. From Texas Tech using oil money to build a SEC-level roster, to John Mateer getting disrespected just for picking Oklahoma, the sport is shifting from tradition to full-blown capitalism.

The biggest portal news for USC happened on Tuesday with the Branch Brothers announcing they would be the latest Trojans to transfer. Wide receiver Zachariah Branch and safety Zion Branch both were slated to play major roles on this team in 2025, but neither will be wearing Cardinal and Gold going forward after they put their names in the NCAA Transfer Portal. With Zachariah's departure, all four five-star players recruited by Lincoln Riley from the 2022 and 2023 classes have now left the program: Branch, cornerback Domani Jackson, wide receiver Duce Robinson and quarterback Malachi Nelson. USC will also be on the market to hire a new offensive line coach and offensive coordinator with Josh Henson departing to join Barry Odom at Purdue. Henson will be the offensive coordinator for the Boilermakers but unlike his role at USC, he will be the primary play caller at Purdue. The guys talk about Riley's decision to hire from within, promoting tight ends coach Zach Hanson to be the Trojans new offensive line coach. They also discuss the other players that hit the portal and some of the candidates to fill the open linebacker coaching spot.

The Helium Boys are back to break down the Trojans getting back to .500 with a 28-20 win over Nebraska in UNLV transfer Jayden Maiava's first start in cardinal and gold. The podcasters also look forward, giving their thoughts on the upcoming matchup against UCLA. The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' that features Shotgun talking about his excitement about the rivalry game set to take plae this weekend. Chris then takes the 'Two-Minute Drill' reins to discuss some of the traditions missing from his coverage of practices leading up to Saturday's Crosstown Showdown and how Kyle Ford brought back some fire with his mentality about facing off against his former team. Chris and Shotgun then dive into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment looking at the players and themes that saw their stock rise or dip this week. The way the ball comes off Maiava's hand and his velocity is discussed as well as an unprecedented streak of good fortune that was bestowed upon the Trojans against the Cornhuskers after having only bad luck for much of this season. Play calling and the run game headed by running back Woody Marks after his career-best performance also get a positive review as do defensive linemen Elijah Hughes and Kameryn Fountain along with others. On the flip side, the Trojans' saw issues with their health after an outbreak of flu cases cut through the locker room. The return and departure of Jacobe Covington as well as the limited playing time of Ja'Kobi Lane are also focused upon in the Stock Down portion. After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing Anthony Lucas, Zachariah Branch and Lane.

They also look forward, giving their thoughts on what to expect following Lincoln Riley's decision to bench Miller Moss in favor of Jayden Maiava. The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' that features Shotgun discussing the anniversary of a classic Helium Boys road trip as well as the Women of Troy getting a gutsy season-opening victory in the Aflec Oui-Play event in Paris. Chris then takes the 'Two-Minute Drill' reins to tell an epic story of trying to find food after the conclusion of the USC-Washington game. Chris and Shotgun then dive into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment looking at the players and themes that saw their stock rise or dip this week. Zachariah Branch had one of his best games this season while young pass rushers Sam Greene and Kameryn Fountain continue to earn more opportunities. Maiava's stock is obviously on the rise as he takes over the reins of the USC offense and the Trojans' run game, when given a chance, continues to excel recently. On the flip side, the Trojans' saw some weak points at right tackle as well as one of their cornerback spots. Those and Riley's playcalling are focused upon in the Stock Down portion.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Jack Smith and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio for a Halloween edition of the show, previewing the extremely important game between the USC Trojans and the Washington Huskies. Both programs are 4-4 and both need a victory for a realistic shot at making a bowl game and finishing the season on a high note. The Trojans will have their hands full trying to play in Husky Stadium, where UW has an 18-game winning streak going. USC hasn't won a true road game in over a year and would love to finally secure a Big Ten road win, even if it comes against a familiar Pac-12 foe. Washington's strength lies in its pass defense, ranked No. 1 in the FBS. USC likes to throw the ball with Miller Moss but Lincoln Riley could find more success with Woody Marks and the ground game up in Seattle. The Trojans could get some of their injured defensive players back for this game as they try to keep the Huskies offense at bay. UW is one of the top teams in FBS in terms of total offense, but for some reason Washington struggles in the red zone, making point production much lower. The Dawgs are also terrible on special teams, which could provide an opportunity for Zachariah Branch and Makai Lemon in the return game.
