They pulled off huge March Madness upsets. Now they're opting out of revenue sharing

Washington Post4 days ago
Saint Peter's, Fairleigh Dickinson and Maryland-Baltimore County — three schools that have taken March Madness by storm at various points in the past decade — have declined to opt in to college sports' new revenue sharing model.
The newly formed College Sports Commission, which oversees revenue sharing following the House settlement , posted a list of schools that have opted into revenue sharing. All members of the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and Southeastern Conference are participating, and other Division I schools had to opt in or out by June 30.

Receiver Brysen Wright makes spectacular, leaping one-handed catch for Jaguars Elite in NFL Flag Championships

Brysen Wright is a name we might seeing plenty from in the near future in college football and perhaps the NFL someday. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound receiver provided arguably the highlight play of the weekend (Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. might have something to say about that) during the 14U quarterfinals of the NFL Flag Championships in Canton, Ohio. Wright, playing for the Jaguars Elite 14U, split three defenders on a flag route for a jump ball in the end zone. He snared the ball with a one-handed backhand catch and held on for the touchdown from quarterback Dalton Motes. No doubt about "process of the catch" on this spectacular reception versus the Ravens from Long Island, New York. One-handed catches are a somewhat regular occurrence in college football and the NFL since Odell Beckham Jr. announced his arrival in the NFL with a leaping right-handed grab on a deep ball from Eli Manning in 2014. Even Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was impressed after seeing Wright's catch, posting "Yooo what?" on social media. The touchdown wasn't the only amazing catch Wright made in Saturday's game. In the second half, he made a back-shoulder reception down the right sideline, reaching back with his left hand while bracing himself against the turf with his right hand. Additionally, Wright may be developing into the next Travis Hunter, a player who can dominate as both a receiver and a defensive back. Playing safety, Wright snared an interception while covering the middle of the field. That helped maintain the Jaguars' 18-13 lead late in the second half. The Jaguars went on to defeat the Ravens, 24-19, and advanced to Sunday's championship round where they will face the Bills from Clifton Park, New York. To no surprise, Wright is currently considered a four-star prospect by Rivals for the 2028 recruiting class out of Mandarin High School in Jacksonville, Florida. He has received offers from many of the top programs in the nation, including Ohio State, Texas, Alabama, LSU, Miami (Florida), Florida, Florida State, Auburn and South Carolina. The 14-year-old may have set the bar for what to expect from NFL players competing in flag football at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
