(NewsNation) — Two days into their first term at a school in the United Kingdom, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are already switching schools due to security concerns.
A spokesperson for the Duke and ***** ss of Sussex told People Magazine that the children were being removed from the school in the Cotswolds over security concerns that were unknown until the term began.
Those concerns included heavy traffic in the area, the distance between the school and the family's home, and that the concern was heightened after an incident that, ***** o magazine reports, "made it difficult for their vehicles to stay in convoy."
Meghan to head back to the US in 5 weeks for 'work'
"The parents remain extremely grateful to all the teachers and staff for the love, care and effort they have shown their family," the spokesperson said. "This decision should in no way be interpreted as a reflection on the school or the exceptional care the children have received there."

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are switching schools two days after starting the new term
A spokesperson for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tells PEOPLE, "The decision for the children to move schools was taken following a discussion with the family's security team about the practicalities of their current arrangements"
Getting Archie and Lili settled in "has been, and remains, their focus. Everything else will fall into place when the time is right," a source previously said about the family's recent return to the U.K.
Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have switched schools just two days into the new year.
The children of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — 7-year-old Archie and 5-year-old Lilibet — began classes in the U.K. last week after their family's move back to Harry's home country. However, the Duke and ***** ss of Sussex moved their kids to a different school amid security concerns.

No. 14 Tennessee (2-0) will host Kennesaw State (1-1) Saturday in Week 3 of the 2026 college football season.
Kickoff between the Vols and Owls is slated for 7:45 p.m. EDT at Neyland Stadium. SEC Network will televise the contest.
Saturday will mark the first meeting between the two schools.
Kennesaw State first fielded a football team in 2015.
The Owls began competing in FCS as a member of the Big South Conference due to the Atlantic Sun Conference not sanctioning football until Kennesaw State began transitioning to a FBS program. Kennesaw State won three Big South championships (2017-18, 2021) and advanced to playoff quarterfinals from 2017-18. The Owls advanced to the second round of the FCS playoffs in 2019 and 2021.

HBCU coach has $1 million hot take on money games appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Tennessee State head coach Reggie Barlow stood in solidarity with Edward Waters' president, Dr. A. Zachary Faison, after his comments about money games. Faison's comments came after Edward Waters played Jackson State, and he believes that the team did not get a fair shake in the deal he made years ago.
"Going forward, Edward Waters University will not schedule Division I opposition in football except on terms this institution sets and that materially and substantially advance our program goals," he said in the post. "I want you and our supporters to understand exactly why. The economics do not work. We were paid a $65,000 guarantee, which covered none of our costs. Travel and related expenses ran roughly $30,000 to $35,000, so we cleared about $30,000. That does not begin to justify what such a game asks of a team, a coaching staff, and a program."
Barlow, whose team recently played the University of Georgia in Week 1, expressed solidarity with Faison on Monday's OVC-Big South coaches call. He started by acknowledging that guarantee games between HBCUs (and FCS schools generally) and Power Conference opponents are common practice.

Eli Drinkwitz doesn't usually mince words. While mostly affable, the Missouri head coach doesn't always subscribe to tact. He's not to afraid to say how he feels.
He certainly didn't pull any punches after his No. 23 Tigers squad humbled Kansas on the road Friday night in the latest iteration of the schools' "Border Showdown." Missouri (2-0) handed the Jayhawks (1-1) a 38-21 defeat that could have looked even more lopsided had a head-turning shot to the end zone not fallen incomplete in the game's waning moments at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence.
That potential death knell resulted from Drinkwitz's frustration toward Kansas and the way the Jayhawks brazenly approached the programs' longstanding yet complicated rivalry in the lead-up to the matchup.
Kansas leaned into the Civil War history between the two states, posting a pregame hype video framed as "heroes vs. villains" with the social media caption, "It is that deep." Drinkwitz wasn't amused and fundamentally disagreed.
"I get there's a past to it, but why are we stirring that bull **** up? It's 9/11," Drinkwitz said postgame on Friday, the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Senator Ted Cruz sent a dire warning if Congress does not pass the Protect College Sports Act. In about five years, in Cruz's estimation, football and other sports will be in an unrecognizable state.
The biggest things for Cruz are the transfer rules and a hard out on eligibility for college athletes. You get one free transfer and five years of eligibility in total, which ends regardless of how many years used once you turn the age of 24. Keeping that in place, along with an even playing field when it comes to NIL, this is the best solution for football, basketball, wone's sports and other Olympic sports, per Cruz.
$19.99 gets you a FULL year of On3 | Rivals national coverage
"There are no rules, and the situation with the transfer portal, where kids go and transfer two, three, four, five times, it's terrible for the game. It's terrible for the players. It's terrible for the schools, and it's terrible for the families," Cruz said on College GameDay. "And so the reason Congress is acting is because Congress created this problem. It was the federal antitrust laws that were used to bring the lawsuits that struck down all the rules, and so the Protect College Sports Act is bipartisan legislation that's very simple.
"It brings order to chaos. It protects the students, protects the student's ability to be compensated to receive name, image, and likeness compensation, I think that's only fair. It's only right."

If you think Army is going to run over, around and through the South Florida defense the way the Black Knights did against Bryant in week one, think again.
There were a lot of positives to draw from as Army rolled up a school-record 648 yards of total offense and 569 rushing yards on the way to a 59-3 victory over Bryant. With a rout in progress, Army went deep into its bench and utilized 16 different ball carries, including three quarterbacks.
South Florida is not Bryant. The Bulls feature a defensive front that averages 6-foot-3, 293 pounds per man (Major Dillard is 330 pounds at nose, Asani Redwood is 300 at tackle and Michael Williams is 250 at end), compared to the Bryant squad that averaged 30 pounds less. Jump to the linebackers, and USF features a group that averages 6-3, 233 pounds, more than a dozen pounds heavier than the similar Bryant unit. You can also expect South Florida's defenders will be quicker to close off the edges, perhaps cutting off Army's success on the perimeter.
The Bulls held Florida International to 80 yards on 25 carries in a 19-9 win on the evening of Sept 5. FIU did roll up 301 yards of passing, on 62% of completed throws, but run-dominant Army has not been a passing threat for many years.
Based off last week's starting lineup (the Bulls do not release depth charts to the media), the South Florida defense fields nine starters who transferred in from other Division I schools. Linebackers C.J. Hicks (Ohio State), Grayson Howard (South Carolina and Florida) and Sam Robinson (Rutgers) played Power 4 ball, as did Redwood (West Virginia) up front. Corner Teddy Foster (Florida) and 'Star' Amanio Fortenberry (Kansas State) help anchor the secondary.

Kansas State (1-0) takes on Washington State (0-1) in the first ever meeting between the schools. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 AM on Fort Riley Day at Bill Snyder Family Stadium and the game will be broadcast on TNT. As usual, all these details and much more can be found in Jon Morse's How To Watch post.
In the opener for both teams, Wazzu lost to Washington 24-10 in a much-too-early edition of the Apple Cup. Wazzu struggled on offense, though the score might have been closer if not for a couple of missed field goals and a couple of interceptions by transfer QB Cade Pinnick. Washington State's defense definitely had its moments, however. If you're like me, you probably missed the game in its entirety. Luckily, we have Drew Schneider on hand to break it all down.
The general gist seems to be that Wazzu may not be the best team on the Wildcats' schedule this year, but Kansas State overlooks the Cougars at its own peril. As Collin Klein himself noted, Pinnick can do some damage with his legs and K-State's defense seemed ever-so-slightly suspect against the run in the blowout win over Nicholls. There's also Wazzu's defense to consider, which managed to get a key 4th down stop on the goal line against Washington, thanks to stalwarts like Keith Brown, a linebacker who missed all of last season with injury and is now the teammate's de facto standard bearer.
I don't pay a lot of attention to fan Q&As, but there are some interesting tidbits in Kellis Robinett's weekly mailbag, including that Klein's recruiting philosophy is that every player is merely leasing a roster spot until someone beats them out of it. Competition is constant is apparently CK's mantra. See? There is only football.

Hours before its fourth game of the season, Pasadena High School (California) announced that it is canceling the rest of its 2026 varsity high school football season.
The school hopes to play its remaining games on a junior varsity-only schedule. The Bulldogs — who won the CIF Southern Section football championship for the first time since 1933 in 2024 — cited concerns about player safety as the reason.
Starting with Friday, Sept. 11's, matchup against Monrovia, Pasadena will forfeit the remaining seven games on its varsity schedule. The team lost 21 seniors from a team that went 6-5 in 2025.
The Pasadena Unified School District sent an email to the parents of players on the team on Friday, citing the loss of ten potential starters transferring out of district.
"As you know, we began the football season with a young and enthusiastic varsity team that now has 46 members," the school district said in its statement. "During the off-season, ten potential starters transferred to schools outside the district. These transfers affected the team's collective skill and experience level.

The Golden State Warriors have put together their teams through a variety of ways over the years, yet few approaches have proven as successful as the NBA draft. More than anything else, the most talented players to represent the Warriors have arrived in Golden State either by being selected directly in the annual draft or through trades executed on that same night.
The Golden State Warriors have taken many of their top stars through the draft, but have also landed a number of notable players over the years as well. From tiny colleges to blue blood programs, these alumni have contributed significantly to the team's roster over the years. So, we chose to take a closer look at which Dubs came from which schools over the years.
So without further ado, let's take a look at every player who has been drafted by the Warriors out of University of Wisconsin-Parkside.
Draft year and position: 4th round (21st pick, 87th overall), 1977 NBA Draft

It had special meaning for both schools.
The Eagles honor the memory of former lacrosse player Welles Crowther, who died rescuing more than a dozen people in the South Tower of the World Trade Center. The BC grad was known for carrying a red bandanna.
"It's so uplifting," said Alison Crowther, the mother of Welles, on the field an hour before the game. "The love that our whole family feels here at Boston College."
She spoke on the sideline with Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight" playing in the background as fans were making their way into Alumni Stadium holding red bandanna giveaways.

It's already Week 4 of the high school football season and a lot of the desert's high schools will be lit up this Friday night as there are a five different home games.
Xavier Prep pays a visit to Cathedral City in the only head-to-head desert game on Friday (don't forget the Yucca Valley at Desert Christian Academy game was moved to Saturday). But Palm Desert, La Quinta, Palm Springs and Coachella Valley are also at home against tough opponents. Should make for some fun scoreboard watching and that is where we come in.
We'll provide live score updates for all eight of Friday night's high school football games. Stay with us throughout the night.

The Miami Hurricanes move to 2-0 after drubbing the FAMU Rattlers 77-7 on Thursday night at Hard Rock Stadium. I predicted Miami by 40+ and clearly that was an easy take.
Diatribe coming, skip ahead: I greatly appreciate what the FCS games do for the FCS athletic departments, essentially the payoff keeps the schools afloat for the year, however these games need to be recalibrated. I was bored halfway through the first quarter and went to sleep at halftime.
My suggestion is to move these games to Week Zero, treat it like a preseason game ie. it doesn't count, and still pay the teams the fee to come and play. That would give FSU a chance to check their light system, and everyone else a chance to simulate the game day experience with a lower ticket price while still being televised. The fact that your season ticket package includes this boring game, in addition to Central Michigan, would feel like robbery to me. OK- DIATRIBE OVER.
The Canyonero Keys to Victory main theme was to drive over a team ranked in the 200's in SP+ and throw it in reverse and back over them again. Miami did just that and we're all ready to move on to real opponents now. The three keys were:
1- Don't get **** y, stick to the plan. Miami pounded the rock three times on the opening drive and it was capped by a Mark Fletcher TD. The 'Canes plan was to get the run game going and the Darian Mensah to his receivers connection fresh. It worked.

Lily Reynolds enjoyed a tremendous first full season pitching on the varsity level as a sophomore for Colonie in 2026.
Before her final two high schools seasons, Reynolds has already provided longtime University at Albany softball coach Chris Cannata her verbal commitment to pitch for the Great Danes of the America East Conference.
"I just realized that I wanted to stay home and be around my family. That was really the big deciding factor for me - not necessarily the D-I label," Reynolds said of her decision.
"She called me (Wednesday) and I told her this is the best news ever," said Colonie coach Kelly Colvin, who played at Shenendehowa and UAlbany. "Lily has put in so much hard work with us at Colonie and with the (Capital District) Fusion. It is really cool to see it pay off for her. We're all very excited."
During her sophomore season, Reynolds compiled a 7-2 record with a 1.61 earned run average and 115 strikeouts over 91 1/3 innings for the Wolf Pack. She was named to the Times Union all-star team as a first-team selection.

Five-star shooting guard Adan Diggs has narrowed his list of offers to seven schools, he told Rivals. Moving forward, the 6-foot-4 senior out of Millennium High School (AZ) will consider Arizona, Arkansas, Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, and USC.
[ $19.99 gets you a FULL year of On3 | Rivals national coverage ]
To this point, Diggs has just one official visit scheduled, to Arizona the weekend of September 25, but says he plans to take trips to each of his remaining finalists.
He is ranked as the No. 5 overall recruit in the 2027 class and the No. 1 ranked shooting guard, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking, an average of all three major recruiting media companies (Rivals, ESPN, 247Sports).
Diggs was previously ranked as Rivals' No. 1 overall player in the 2028 class before reclassifying.

Stivers will have six games on the remainder of its 2026 football schedule.
The Tigers new schedule was finalized Thursday, Sept. 11 by Dayton Public Schools.
Stivers will restart its season against Thurgood Marshall on Sept. 17. Stivers kept road games against Shroder, Norwood and Vanlue from its original slate, and also received a commitment from St. Bernard-Elmwood Place. The Tigers also rescheduled a game against Dunbar at Welcome Stadium.
DPS Superintendent Dr. David Lawrence announced Sept. 2 Stivers would attempt to finish the season one day after the district said its season would be canceled. The district originally canceled the season due to what the district described as not being able to continue "safely and responsibly" stemming from injuries and low player participation numbers. DPS officials reversed its decision after holding a meeting with parents and staff the following day.
Stivers began the 2026 season with a game on Aug. 21 against Gamble Montessori which it lost 50-6. The originally scheduled game against Dunbar the next week was canceled and a few days after the entire season was canceled which caused several teams originally on the Stivers schedule to find new games.

Saturday night is the battle for the Cy-Hawk Trophy! Iowa (1-0) hosts Iowa State (1-0) in Kinnick Stadium for their annual rivalry game. For the first time in over a decade, there is a double digit spread in this matchup and it favors the seasoned Hawkeyes.
Iowa State rolls into this season in his first year under Jimmy Rogers. The Cyclones brought in over 80 newcomers, so this team is very new to the physicality and hatred in this rivalry. Iowa State beat Southeast Missouri State 38-10 in the season opener, outgaining the Redhawks 303-209 and forced three turnovers. Josh Raynor made his first start as Iowa State's quarterback and he went 8-of-16 for 184 passing yards and two touchdowns, plus 42 rushing yards on seven carries and two more scores.
Iowa played three different quarterbacks in their dominant 40-0 win over Northern Illinois. The Hawkeyes combined for 218 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one interceptions on 21-of-40 (52.5%). Kamari Moulton ran for a game-high 183 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 11 carries. Iowa outgained Northern Illinois 507-120 and held the Huskies to seven rushing yards on 31 carries.
Let's dive into the schools on both sides of the ball, look at a few key players, and see where the numbers take us.

Former Wales and British and Irish Lions wing Shane Williams says financial support for schools and colleges rugby from the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) is "almost non-existent".
Wales' record try scorer is head of rugby at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman and suggests that support is reserved for elite players tied to regions.
The 49-year-old warns that good players are being lost because of a lack of WRU investment in student pathways.
"It's the most important part of it all," Williams told Radio Wales Breakfast.
"Where do these youngsters come from? Are we looking after them in the pathway?

Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis did not join Prince William and Kate Middleton to see big brother Prince George off for his first day at Eton College
George's move means the three siblings will attend different schools for the first time since they began at Lambrook together in 2022
Charlotte and Louis will remain at Lambrook, and Charlotte won't be able to follow George to Eton because the boarding school is all-boys
Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were not there to see big brother Prince George off as he began a major new chapter.
Prince William and Kate Middleton joined their eldest son George, 13, for his first day at Eton College on Tuesday, Sept. 8, walking together across a quadrangle to greet the school's headmaster and provost.

There is a monster of a defensive lineman growing up about an hour and a half down the road in Louisville, and Kentucky is doing everything it can to keep him home.
Kellan Hall, a 2028 defensive lineman out of Christian Academy of Louisville, is one of the most talented young players in the entire country. 247 Sports has him as the No. 1 defensive lineman in the nation and a top-10 overall prospect in his class. Rivals actually lists him second overall in the class of 2028.
At a listed 6-foot-4 and right around 275 pounds, with the frame to keep growing well past 300, he is exactly the kind of trench player programs build their defenses around.
Recently, Hall trimmed his list to 12 schools, and the Cats made the cut. Kentucky is in there alongside Oklahoma, Ohio State, Georgia, Texas, Texas A&M, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oregon and Tennessee. That is about as loaded a group of blue bloods as you will find anywhere, and Big Blue is standing right in the thick of it.
It's also worth noting that Louisville, right in his own backyard, is nowhere to be found on his list.

Ohio State is now 1-0 following an impressive season opener against Ball State last Saturday.
The Buckeyes finished their first game of the season with a rousing 56-3 victory. The dominant win was witnessed by more than just the 100,000-plus fans that filled Ohio Stadium, as Ohio State was also playing host to multiple recruits Saturday as well.
Ryan Day and the coaching staff may already be reaping the rewards of the first win, as the Buckeyes opened up the week being included in multiple top schools lists for some of the nation's top talents.
2028 five-star wide receiver Braylon Clark (Charlotte, NC / Providence Day School) released his top 12 schools Monday, and Ohio State made the cut.
However, as a top 12 implies, Ohio State still has competition in recruiting Clark. LSU, Alabama, Oregon, Tennessee, Miami, Clemson, Texas A&M, Indiana, Texas, South Carolina and USC all also made his top schools.
