Mississippi State men's basketball landed a commitment from Class of 2027 small forward Jalen White on Thursday morning. The news was first reported by Robbie Faulk of State1878.
White, a native of Scottsdale, Arizona, chose the Bulldogs over 12 other Division I schools that offered, including but not limited to Washington, St. Louis, Oregon and Oklahoma State. He is rated by 247sports as the 29th small forward in the country.
"It was definitely more than I expected," White said in a statement to State1878. "It was going to be down to the coaches and how the fans are with the school. I just felt like it was home."
White becomes the second commitment to MSU's 2027 class, joining guard Jacques Mitchell of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Marshall Faulk not happy with Southern's 77-6 money game beatdown to Houston appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Marshall Faulk was not happy with his team's resounding 77-6 loss to the University of Houston on Saturday. The matchup was one of several money games FCS HBCU programs played over the past couple of weeks, and it was Faulk's first money game. In comments obtained by Kevin Batiste, Faulk expressed his disappointment with the result and what it meant.
"That was awful. That wasn't really a game. That was a kind of a pre-season crash dummy test for Houston to work on all their good plays, and we didn't show up…I felt like, for the most part, the guys that we had in early, our guys that's going to play, I feel like they gave the effort. But let's just be real, okay? They're better than us. All right? They're better than us. They're ranked what, twenty-second? We're FCS. Everybody know what this is. Let it be what it is. We're gonna get better, we're gonna lick our wounds, and get ready to play some football."
He then talked about maintaining his players' health after the Houston game and heading into SWAC play.
"I don't know. I know we have a couple of guys dinged up, but for the most part, I'm gonna say yes. Listen, man, I took my guys out. I wanted to make sure that we were healthy. We got SWAC play coming up in two weeks, and as much as winning this game seemed important as it started, with the start that we had, I just needed to make sure — or ensure — that we got out of this game as healthy as possible."

Tennessee first fielded a football team in 1891. Throughout its history, the Vols have played on Sept. 12 five times and have a 2-3 record.
In 1992, Tennessee defeated Georgia, 35-31, at Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia, in the first SEC East division game.
Tennessee trailed at halftime, 17-13. The Vols scored a winning touchdown on a 3-yard run by quarterback Heath Shuler with 50 seconds remaining in the contest.
He also completed 12-of-22 passing attempts for 152 yards and one interception. Shuler was the Vols' leading rusher. He totaled 81 yards and two rushing touchdowns on 19 attempts. James Stewart also scored one rushing touchdown for Tennessee.
Craig Faulkner led Tennessee in receiving yards (86) on six receptions.

One of the top EDGE rushers in the nation has scheduled two visits for the upcoming fall; one of those will be to Auburn.
Auburn football has locked in a visit with 2028 five-star EDGE rusher Jalanie George for Saturday, Sept. 19, according to a report by Rivals. George will be on campus for Auburn football's SEC opener against the Florida Gators, ensuring the West Coast pass rusher will see Auburn's game-day environment at its highest level.
Auburn has been high on George's radar for several months. George put the Tigers in his top six schools in May, alongside Oklahoma, Florida, Miami, Washington, and Miami. George's interest in Auburn grew following a successful Big Cat Weekend visit this spring, and it continues to grow as Auburn is one of two teams he has locked in a fall visit with, joining Washington, who will host him on Sept. 6 for their Apple Cup game against archrival Washington State.
The EDGE rushers at Auburn have enjoyed plenty of recent success, as Keldric Faulk and Keyron Crawford were recently selected in the 2026 NFL Draft. This year's room, which includes Jared Smith and Ole Miss transfer Da'shawn Womack, is expected to be just as disruptive. The Tigers' recent success with its pass rushers is a strong pitch for George, who has the potential to be the next great EDGE rusher in Auburn's defense.
George is a five-star EDGE rusher according to Rivals and is the ninth-best player in the 2028 class. He ranks No. 2 among 2028 EDGE rushers and is the top prospect from Arizona.

Florida's tight end room looks completely different heading into the 2026 season.
Amir Jackson and Micah Jones are the only returning players at the position, while the Gators added six newcomers through the transfer portal, recruiting class and walk-on ranks. That gives offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner and tight ends coach Evan McKissack a much deeper group to work with in an offense that should feature plenty of 12 personnel.
Jackson and Luke Harpring (Georgia Tech) provide two spread options who can stretch the field, while Lacota Dippre (James Madison) offers a more physical, all-around option. Evan Chieca is another hybrid option, but he remains unproven at the FBS level.
Freshman Heze Kent might be the most interesting player in the position room due to his massive frame and weight-loss journey. Jon Sumrall challenged him to get into shape if Kent wanted to stay at tight end, and things are going well so far.
Here's a closer look at Florida's tight ends room heading into the 2026 season.

Tennessee **** ans first-round pick Keldrick Faulk left practice last week with a shoulder injury. Robert Saleh said today that Faulk won't practice this week, but that he is expected to be ready for the regular season opener against the New York Jets. Saleh didn't give any specifics on the injury because he isn't required to in the preseason.
The only good news here is that the **** ans have more depth on the defensive line than anywhere else on the roster. Even if Faulk isn't ready for the start of the season, they can get by with the other guys they have up front. That is certainly not the case in other places on the roster.
It probably feels pretty dumb to feel good about anything on the defense after the performance we have seen from them in the first two games, but I still think they are going to be good. There is plenty of talent on that side of the ball, and we know Saleh can coach a defense.
Am I crazy to still have optimism about the defense?

Florida has named its starting quarterback for Week 1 of the 2026 season.
Georgia Tech transfer Aaron Philo will get the nod over redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr. when the Gators take on Florida Atlantic to begin the season on Sept. 5. Philo followed new offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner from Atlanta to Gainesville.
"We are preparing for (Philo) to be the starter for Week 1," coach Jon Sumrall announced on Monday.
Philo has familiarity with Faulkner's system and saw game action (albeit limited) during his time with the Yellow Jackets. The redshirt sophomore appeared in eight games, starting one, and threw for 938 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions.

Tennessee ****** ans coach Robert Saleh announced that third-year defensive end Jaylen Harrell and rookie tight end Jaren Kanak will both be put on season-ending injured reserve with injuries sustained in the preseason opener against the San Francisco 49ers on Aug. 13.
Harrell, who logged 4.5 sacks for the ****** ans as a rotational outside linebacker in 2025, tore his ACL and Kanak, the ****** ans' seventh-round pick in 2026, tore his pectoral muscle.
Without Harrell, the ****** ans' depth pieces off the defensive edge don't have too much name recognition. Veteran free agent adds Malik Herring and Earnest Brown IV are possibilities to fill the spot Harrell leaves behind. The ****** ans did fill the room with new blood atop the depth chart, though, with Jermaine Johnson II, Jacob Martin and first-round pick Keldric Faulk joining former second-round pick Oluwafemi Oladejo as the heart of the rotation.
Kanak had been getting play as a rotational tight end with the second- and third-team offenses and also played multiple positions in the backfield like fullback and H-back. Most of Kanak's use was expected to be on special teams. Without Kanak, the ****** ans' options at tight end behind starters Gunnar Helm and Daniel Bellinger include David Martin-Robinson, Kylen Granson and Joel Wilson.
In other injury news, defensive linemen John Franklin-Myers and Jackie Marshall returned to practice on Aug. 15 for individual drills after missing time. Neither participated in team activities.

Few coaches are better positioned to compare the Baltimore Ravens' running backs room to another NFL backfield than Eddie Faulkner. Hired to serve as running backs coach on Jesse Minter's staff, he most recently spent seven seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He helped develop and oversee multiple productive rushing attacks. That experience gives weight to his recent ****** sment of Baltimore's group, and it was a notable endorsement.
Faulkner recently said the Steelers' running backs room he coached last season was strong. At the same time, he suggested the Ravens' current collection of backs may be every bit as talented—if not better.
That's a significant yet unsurprising statement considering what Baltimore already has at the top of the depth chart. Any discussion about the Ravens' running backs begins with Derrick Henry.
Most won't need to be reminded of this, but it's worth another mention. The future Hall of Famer, Derrick Henry, enters another season as one of the most accomplished players at his position. Faulkner made it clear that Henry's resume speaks for itself.
"He could not take another snap and he's going to get a gold jacket."

Wide receiver Dallas Wilson is one of the most exciting players on Florida's roster. The second-year pass catcher spoke to reporters on Tuesday after Florida's pre-fall camp press conference and touched on the renewed energy in the building.
Wilson said he was excited to play in a diverse offense under coordinator Buster Faulkner and addressed the bond developed amongst the players over the offseason. He also reflected on his injury issues last season and how it helped him grow as a person.
A dynamic personality, Wilson wasn't shy about sharing the fun the players are having within the receivers room. Challenging one another and competing with the defensive backs make for a positive environment, one that's helped develop that aforementioned bond.
Here's everything Wilson said.
I mean, it's a real diverse offense. You've got long shots, then you've got JB running the ball back there. Man, who's going to stop that guy? So it's like, when you're running these routes or running these plays with Coach Buster and doing the things he's asking you, it gets real fun. It's like just going out there, backyard football.

The Tennessee **** ans totally revamped their defensive line this offseason. They hired Robert Saleh to be the new head coach. Saleh came in and reimagined the defensive line in his vision.
It started when the **** ans traded for Jermaine Johnson II. They signed John Franklin-Myers, Jordan Elliott, and Jacob Martin in free agency. Mike Borgonzi also traded for Solomon Thomas. Saleh coached all five of these players in New York and San Francisco.
Of course, they're joining Jeffery Simmons, who inked a historic extension with the **** ans earlier this offseason. Saleh will attempt to develop sophomore Femi Oladejo. The **** ans also drafted Keldric Faulk with a first-round pick. Faulk was another Saleh-approved addition, given his similar length and build to Arik Armstead. The aforementioned eight players will essentially be the **** ans' defensive line rotation this season.
Coach Saleh is expected to field an aggressive, attacking-style defense. That's the focal point of his defense. It should lead to impressive sack numbers for the **** ans' defense. Expectations are high.
Given the **** ans' lack of talent at EDGE last season, defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson actually did an excellent job manufacturing pressure. An All-Pro season from Simmons helped. The **** ans ranked 12th (tied) in the league in sacks with 42. That exceeded preseason expectations.

How will the Jon Sumrall era live on in Florida football history? With about a month to go before the Gators kick off the 2026 season, the biggest hope for now is that it's at least an improvement over the Billy Napier one.
The plug got pulled on Napier seven games into his fourth season, a barrier that no UF coach has crossed since Urban Meyer. The Gators haven't been in the College Football Playoff rankings since Dan Mullen coached them to the 2020 SEC championship game.
To turn that around, maybe a coach freshly removed from leading Tulane to the CFP will help. He knows he's got a stud at running back in Jadan Baugh, he of 1,170 yards and eight touchdowns in what was otherwise a dismal 4-8 campaign. Who starts at quarterback is a whole different manner: Georgia Tech transfer Aaron Philo is one of six transfers projected as starters at Ourlads, but redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr. could just as easily win the job.
There's still time to decide who best fits in new offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner's Air Raid scheme. The first two games of the season will (barring disaster the likes of the South Florida loss last season) serve as mere tune-ups for the SEC opener at Auburn and former USF two-way QB Byrum Brown. Then it's the big early test: a showdown with Trinidad Chambliss, Kewan Lacy and an Ole Miss team fresh off a CFP semifinal appearance.
If the Gators can tread water through the gauntlet of Texas, Georgia (in Atlanta as Jacksonville updates its stadium) and Oklahoma, there's hope they could lock down a solid bowl résumé against Florida State on Black Friday. And hey, maybe UF can end the year back in the CFP rankings.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Defensive end Jeremiah Johnson II cannot wait until the Tennessee ***** ans finally put the pads on.
Neither can his teammates, especially along the line.
"Honestly, they don't know what's coming when we get pads on," Johnson said Thursday. "But we say that in the best way possible. We're just eager to really play this front the right way, and you can only do that with pads on, so we're just very excited."
The ***** ans not only have a new head coach in Robert Saleh, they are implementing his defense to smother opposing offenses and get after quarterbacks.
It's why Tennessee gave All-Pro tackle Jeffery Simmons a pricey contract extension in June and revamped the line around him this offseason. The ***** ans traded for Johnson, signed John Franklin-Myers to play beside Simmons and traded into the back of the first round of the April draft for end Keldric Faulk.

My earliest memory of St James' Park was walking up the narrow cobbled street opposite the Strawberry before being amazed by the brutalist concrete East Stand with its rippled concrete columns supporting the giant cantilever roof.
Incidentally, Faulkner Browns Architects used the rippling concrete effect to "soften" the brutalism.
Personally, I think it does the opposite.
Instead of clean smooth lines we have bites taken out, not just brutal but rough. Awe inspiring architecture to an eight year old.
The beautiful Georgian buildings adjacent were nowhere near as impressive. The city centre was full of classical sandstone buildings with much greater gravitas.

In about two weeks, EA Sports will release Madden NFL '27 ahead of the 2026 NFL season.
Every year, before the latest edition of the game is released, Madden's player rankings are made public for gamers. Their calculation process for these rankings is extensive, and each position has measurements weighted differently. A lot of the ranking has to do with their performance over the last season, which is why Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels finished with only a 79 overall rating, while 2024 classmates Drake Maye and Caleb Williams finished inside the top 10.
Yes, Daniels was wildly disrespected, but he only played in seven games last season. Even in the games he played, Daniels was nursing injuries, so his game wasn't up to par with his 2024 season.
Daniels isn't the only one disrespected by Madden this year, though. In the rookie rankings, first-round draft pick Sonny Styles ranks 13th overall. He is the highest-ranked MIKE, but he landed behind guys like Keldric Faulk, Malachai Lawrence, and Akheem Mesidor, all of whom were drafted after him in the 2026 NFL Draft. Styles was the No. 7 overall pick, and many believed he'd go somewhere in the top five.
Styles received an overall grade of 78. The breakdown is as follows: Speed - 90, strength - 74, agility - 81, change of direction - 77, injury - 87, and awareness - 78.

The Tennessee ******* ans finished their first day of training camp practice, and after a solid day of work, Jeffery Simmons, Cam Ward, Wan'Dale Robinson, and John Franklin-Myers met with the media to discuss the opening day.
During those availabilities, Franklin-Myers talked about the many different aspects that brought him to Nashville, and specifically his comfort playing anywhere along the defensive line in Robert Saleh's defense.
"I consider myself a football player. Truthfully, I've done it all, I do it all, and my standard is through the roof. So, you can put me inside or outside, nose guard, d-end, d-tackle, I don't care." Franklin-Myers said, "I want to win one-on-ones, and play the most physical brand of football."
The addition of Franklin-Myers to the ******* ans' defensive front gives Tennessee two dynamic interior pass rushers who should be able to wreak havoc throughout the season and become a foundational piece in this rebuild. He should also be able to mentor first-round pick Keldric Faulk, who has a similar make-up and skill set.

Florida football will enter the 2026 season with one of the best running backs in the SEC, if not the country.
Gators junior Jadan Baugh rushed for 1,170 yards and 8 TDs last season, ranking third in the SEC and becoming UF's first 1,000-yard rusher since Kelvin Taylor in 2015.
What can Baugh do for an encore? Under new Florida coach Jon Sumrall and offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner, the possibilities are limitless. Faulkner recruited Baugh out of Columbia High in Atlanta when he was at Georgia Tech and understands the strengths of the 6-foot-1, 228-pound running back who began his high school career as a linebacker.
"He always told me these are the things we can do with you, play can play running back, quarterback, receiver, whatever you want to do," Baugh said, "Being with an offensive coordinator like that, to have so much creativity and being able to put players in great positions, I feel like it's very exciting."
At 1,843 career rushing yards, Baugh has a chance to surpass 3,000 career rushing yards with a big junior season. That would put him among the top five UF rushers of all time, a list that includes Fred Taylor, Earnest Graham, Neal Anderson, Emmitt Smith and Errict Rhett.

TAMPA − Florida football coach Jon Sumrall said the Gators have "two starting QBs" right now and offered no timeline on a decision to name a starter before UF's season opener on Sept. 5 against Florida Atlantic (7:45 p.m., SEC Network).
Sumrall enters his first fall camp with the Florida Gators undecided on whether to start redshirt sophomore Aaron Philio or redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr. at quarterback.
"I've met with both of those guys individually," Sumrall said at SEC Football Media Day. "I'll meet with them before we start training camp together. I'll meet with the whole room. Just because you start game 1 doesn't mean you start game 12 ... my timeline might be five minutes before a game before anybody finds out."
Philo, a transfer from Georgia Tech, played under new offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner with the Yellow Jackets and is more familiar with the scheme. Jones, though, impressed coaches this spring with his leadership ability and ability to throw the ball deep.
In UF's spring game, Philo completed 21-of-28 passes for 193 yards and 2 TDs but also threw two intercepions. Jones completed 13-of-17 passes for 210 yards and 2 TDs but was sacked three times.

Florida football saw a great deal of change since the end of last season, including the departure of Billy Napier and the hiring of Jon Sumrall, as well as a new play caller taking over the quarterback position.
While the final decision is not yet set in stone, it is presumed that Aaron Philo — who arrived in Gainesville through the transfer portal to join his previous offensive coordinator at Georgia Tech, Buster Faulkner — will be lining up under center to start the season. The redshirt sophomore has the upper hand on redshirt freshman Tramell Jones Jr., who served as the primary backup last year, and true freshman Will Griffin heading to the opener of the 2026 campaign.
With that in mind, The Athletic's college football writers Antonio Morales and Sam Khan Jr. recently ranked every projected starter at the position from 1 to 138, organizing them all into seven distinct tiers. Philo finds himself ranked No. 55, which puts him in Tier 4 — right in the middle of the pack.
"Philo saw limited snaps (63 in 2025) while backing up Haynes King at Georgia Tech, so there's still much to learn. He has been effective in his limited duty, accounting for 29 explosive plays in his 180 career snaps (a 3.4% explosive play rate would be top 30 nationally if sustained over starter snaps)," they said.
"I think he's a really good player," one SEC **** istant said. "The thing about him is he needs a lot of help. He's not a runner. He's not going to go out there and win the game himself, but he'll make the easy throws if guys are open."

An England fan who travelled to the US for the World Cup without tickets says the £10,000 he has spent so far has been "worth every penny".
Ed Faulkner, a Hull City fan, is attending his 12th tournament to support England who will play Argentina in the tournament's semi-finals on Wednesday.
Currently on a road trip to the match in Atlanta, the fan said he had "paid through the nose for tickets via one of the third-party sort of ticket providers".
Faulkner added: "I'll tell you what, it's gone past the 10K figure, but it's been worth every penny, honestly."
Faulkner said his experience at the tournament had been "absolutely magnificent" and said the US fans had really "embraced" travelling fans.

Yahoo Sports' new college fantasy football platform allows followers of the sport to draft players from their favorite programs. With a revamped roster, featuring more than 50 additions, the Gators may have more uncertainty than established star power for owners to consider. However, there are a number of surefire producers to target in the draft's initial rounds.
Star running back Jadan Baugh is the clear No. 1 option for the Gators under new offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner. The returning 1,000-yard rusher is likely to sustain his productive level from 2025 as the junior becomes more of a focal point for the Orange and Blue. Inexperience at the quarterback position makes Baugh the centerpiece for Jon Sumrall and company in 2026. The All-SEC playmaker will see an increased workload with plenty of red zone opportunities. Baugh projects as a potential high-end fantasy starter.
Behind Baugh is last year's breakout freshman Vernell Brown III. He led Florida in receiving yards last season in his first year with the Gators, making history by becoming the first true freshman in program history to earn All-SEC honors at three different positions in a single season. Brown enters 2026 as one of the team's most important players; the Gainesville, Florida, native's 773 all-purpose yards ranked second among all true freshman wide receivers, highlighting his versatility and impact — a big reason many feel he'll continue improving.
Auburn transfer Eric Singleton Jr. provides a more experienced option and is the only receiver on Florida's roster who has eclipsed 600 yards in a single season. Dallas Wilson also deserves attention after showing flashes of elite potential during an injury-shortened freshman season.
Florida's eventual starting quarterback will no doubt have fantasy relevance, but managers should be wary of both Aaron Philo and Tramell Jones Jr., treating the pair as valuable backup options.

This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke with Pro Football Hall of Famer and Chicago Bears legend Brian Urlacher.
In his interview with Easton Jr., Urlacher discusses his participation in this year's American Century Championship, which will take place July 10-12 at Edgewood Tahoe and air on NBC and Peacock. He discussed that Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton deserves more respect as one of the best at his position in the league.
"They're (MLB players) always so much better than we (NFL players) are (at the American Century Championship). I mean, we have Tony Romo, Marshall Faulk, who is really good for us, but they have Derek Lowe and Mark Mulder, who are just as good," said Urlacher. "They have so many good players; it's frustrating Kevin Millar is also good; they're just stacked with talent."
Urlacher is considered one of the greatest linebackers to play the game, earning numerous accolades throughout his career. He praises several of today's stars, including Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton.
"Man, that dude (Nick Bolton) gets it. He's very overlooked, but Fred Warner is great, but Bolton, maybe just because all the players on that team, he doesn't get the (same) respect," said Urlacher, "Chris Jones up front, and George Karlaftis, those guys up front, and they had the secondary guys, they were good. Nick Bolton does not get a lot of national exposure, and he should, because he makes a lot of plays."

Pro Football Focus ranked Florida running back Jadan Baugh the 37th-best college football player heading into the 2026 season.
The list mixed "proven performance and future projection" to identify the 50 most valuable players in the sport. Baugh earned an 87.7 overall grade in 2025 and figures to be the focus of Florida's offense in 2026.
"Baugh is a physical runner who should post huge numbers in Buster Faulkner's creative rushing attack this season," the PFF staff wrote. "Last year, Baugh finished third among SEC running backs with 1,168 rushing yards, 65 missed tackles forced and 35 explosive runs. He's also fumbled just one time across 354 career carries. Baugh could be a Doak Walker Award candidate this season if all goes well in Florida's new offense."
Baugh is the fourth running back on the list, behind No. 6 Ahmad Hardy (Missouri), No. 10 Kewan Lacy (Ole Miss) and No. 36 Caleb Hawkins (Oklahoma State).
The question is how opposing defenses will adjust now that Baugh is a proven threat. He emerged as the star of the offense over time last season, benefiting from the focus being on DJ Lagway and the passing game. One of the first things Jon Sumrall said when he took over the program was, "How can I get No. 13 the ball a few more times?"
