Two LSU football stars make Maxwell Award watchlist ahead of 2025 college football season
The Maxwell Award@Garrettnuss13 and @CadenDurham29 are on the watch list for the top offensive player in college football Ahead of the 2025 college football season, LSU's Garrett Nussmeier and Caden Durham were named to the watch list for the Maxwell Award Given to the top offensive player in college football, the Maxwell Award last went to an LSU player in 2019 when Joe Burrow took it home. He is the Tigers' lone recipient and won it after leading them to the national championship. Nussmeier and Durham each enter their second seasons as full-time starters in Baton Rouge. Both earned AP preseason All-SEC second-team in July. Nussmeier, entering his fifth season of college football, threw for 4,052 yards and 29 touchdowns in 2024. He begins his second season as the starter this year and is under 4,000 yards away from becoming the program's all-time leading passer. He used the offseason to build chemistry with a slew of new receivers and working on different parts of his game. Coming off an All-SEC freshman season, Durham finished with 1,013 total yards and averaged 9.3 yards per carry in 2024. He developed into a versatile weapon and will be the feature back in 2025 to balance out an improved passing game.

MLB Writer Floats Joe Ryan Trade Package That Should Leave Cubs Fans 'Giddy'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Chicago Cubs know they have to add at least one starting pitcher ahead of Thursday's deadline. Chicago has had issues with the rotation staying healthy this year, and adding another arm could propel the Cubs to a division crown. Unfortunately for the Cubs, the starting pitching market is thin. It's why FanSided's Quinn Everts believes the organization will have to cough up a strong package to land Joe Ryan from the Minnesota Twins. "Cubs fans are giddy at the thought of Ryan pitching in Wrigley, and that fantasy could become reality ... if they're willing to pony up some promising prospects," wrote Everts. TAMPA, FLORIDA - MAY 27: Joe Ryan #41 of the Minnesota Twins pitches in the third inning against the Tampa Bay Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field on May 27, 2025 in Tampa, Florida. TAMPA, FLORIDA - MAY 27: Joe Ryan #41 of the Minnesota Twins pitches in the third inning against the Tampa Bay Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field on May 27, 2025 in Tampa, is the full trade: "Wiggins and Alcántara are both near-MLB ready and could feasibly make the 2026 opening day roster in Minnesota, giving the fans something to look forward to," added Everts. "McCullough, although he's ranked lower (No. 24) in Chicago's farm system, is a near-sure bet to be at least a playable reliever in the big leagues. This package accomplishes goals for both sides; Chicago gets the starting arm that could make it World Series favorites, while Minnesota gets three prospects that they can feel comfortable will contribute soon." This is a hefty package to cough up for a starting pitcher as the Cubs would be sending back two of their top 10 prospects. However, Ryan has 2 1/2 years of team control remaining. Chicago is responsible for paying him the remainder of his $3 million this season as well. It's a move that will be tough to swallow for the Cubs but one they should make to prepare for a deep playoff run. More MLB: Yankees 'Facing Pressure' as One of Deadline's Most Desperate Teams
