Clemson is one of the biggest college football hype trains rolling into 2025, expert says

Clemson is one of the biggest college football hype trains rolling into 2025, expert says The Clemson Tigers understandably have a lot of hype heading into the 2025 college football season. After the year quarterback Cade Klubnik had in 2024 (3,639 passing yards, 36 TDs), and a host of other talent returning on both sides of the ball in defensive linemen T.J. Parker and Peter Woods and receivers Antonio Williams, Bryant Wesco and TJ Moore, Clemson is as high as No. 2 in various post-spring top 25 rankings (USA TODAY Sports, ESPN). With 83 days remaining until the Tigers open the season against LSU at Memorial Stadium on Aug. 30, CBS Sports has Clemson on its list of the 12 biggest "hype trains" with the most offseason buzz rolling into 2025. Analyst Carter Bahns said of the Tigers: "Dabo Swinney is nearly seven years removed from his second national championship, but after a long stretch that saw his Clemson program slip from its pedestal, he has a behemoth of a 2025 roster that could get back to the mountaintop. Cade Klubnik might be college football's top quarterback after he improved throughout last season, and his stacked receiving corps will only help him reach the next level as a Heisman contender. Expected improvements on defense with Tom Allen taking over the unit will make the Tigers as well-rounded as anyone." Swinney brought in Allen to run the defense after heading up a Penn State unit that went 11-1 in the regular season and reached the semifinal round of the College Football Playoff in 2024. Allen will be tasked to improve a Clemson defense that, under Wes Goodwin, gave up an average of 374 yards per game (69th nationally). The Tigers went 10-4 last year and defeated SMU, 34-31, in a thrilling ACC Championship Game on a walk-off 56-yard Nolan Hauser field goal as time expired. They made the College Football Playoff for the first time in four years and were ranked No. 11 in the final US LBM Coaches Poll. Clemson's season opener against LSU will be in prime time at 7:30 p.m. ET. The game will be televised on ABC.

Mid-South Spotlight: Biggest June visits

Nick Lucero/ June has become arguably the most important month in the recruiting calendar, with prospects crisscrossing the country on official visits and lining up announcement dates. Rivals national recruiting analyst Sam Spiegelman looks at five Mid-South prospects who are taking key visits this month. Advertisement BIG RECRUITING WEEKEND AHEAD: Top storylines | Five biggest Southeast visits in June | Biggest Midwest visits | Biggest Florida visits | Biggest West visits CLASS OF 2026 RANKINGS: Rivals250 | Team | Position | State CLASS OF 2027 RANKINGS: Rivals250 | Team | Position | State TRANSFER PORTAL: Full coverage | Player ranking | Team ranking | Transfer search | Transfer Tracker RIVALS CAMP SERIES: Rivals Five-Star heading back to Indy | Rivals Five-Star roster | Schedule/info JAMARION CARLTON - Texas A&M, June 13 The race has tightened up drastically at the top with Carlton, who logged an official visit to LSU over the weekend and previously was at Texas Tech for a spring official visit. Texas, Texas A&M and Baylor are all in line to host the blue-chip defender with our attention largely fixated on the Aggies and Longhorns. Each of these in-state programs have been trending with Carlton at various points over the past few months -- with Texas A&M taking a major step forward this spring. As a commitment looms, the Aggies' June 13 official visit looms large toward their chances of winning this critical recruiting battle against the Longhorns and Tigers. Advertisement SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH TEXAS A&M FANS AT BOOBIE FEASTER - Texas A&M, June 13 Feaster wrapped up his official visit to Alabama this weekend with stops at USC, LSU and Texas A&M all on deck. Feaster has been tied primarily to SEC teams -- with LSU and Texas A&M each leading the way at various points this off-season. Our intel points to Texas A&M being the leader in the clubhouse -- with an official visit as a chance to truly separate from the pack. My FutureCast is sitting on the Aggies as official visits pick up - and Texas A&M will get a June 13 visit from Feaster before a July 4 commitment. KEISEAN HENDERSON - Florida State, June 9 Henderson has been the face of Houston's 2026 recruiting class. The five-star QB committed to Willie Fritz last May -- and Henderson has since been an active, vocal leader representing the Cougars. Programs like LSU, Florida State and Oregon have all taken swings at Henderson, who will head to Tallahassee on June 9. The Seminoles have swung and missed on several top QB targets this cycle -- and will get their crack at Henderson later this month. Mike Norvell has pulled off some memorable flips at this position over the years -- and Henderson has the potential to follow suit. Advertisement SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH FSU FANS AT FELIX OJO - Texas, June 13 Ojo has already logged a handful of official visits. The five-star OT has been on campus at Ole Miss, Florida, Texas Tech and Colorado -- and recently wrapped up an official visit to Ohio State. Texas is on the calendar for June 13 -- one of the biggest recruiting weekends in Austin this summer. Ojo is a priority target for Steve Sarkisian, Kyle Flood and this Longhorns' staff, and they have been playing with a lead with the in-state OL. Texas is prepared to go all-in to keep Ojo inside the Lone Star State -- and this visit back looms incredibly large toward accomplishing that. Advertisement SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH TEXAS FANS AT JOHN TURNTINE III - Texas, June 20 Turntine logged an official visit to Stanford over the weekend and has big trips on the docket to Michigan, Texas A&M and Texas on the horizon. The Longhorns have remained the team best positioned with the in-state OL and made a sizable impression on Turntine and his family during their most recent visit to the Forty. Texas gets the final crack at Turntine on June 20 before a commitment later this summer.

Angel Reese Turns Heads With Unexpected Development After Sky-Fever

Angel Reese Turns Heads With Unexpected Development After Sky-Fever originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Chicago Sky entered Saturday's marquee matchup against the Indiana Fever with some high hopes. Instead, the Sky ended up losing in embarrassing fashion at home as the Fever secured a dominant 79-52 blowout win at United Center. Advertisement Angel Reese had another forgettable outing in the loss, finishing with four points on 2-of-7 shooting, 12 rebounds, two assists and three turnovers in 27 minutes of action. It is worth noting, though, that the former LSU star was still able to register double-digit rebounds in the loss, which just goes to show her dominance on the glass. Her 12 boards were the most of all players in the game, and they represented 40% of the Sky's 30 rebounds on the evening. Reese has been so good with her rebounding that it has now literally overshadowed her scoring. The Sky All-Star has now amassed more rebounds (532) than points (526) in her WNBA career. Reese has long been known as a rebounding specialist, but more than a few fans on social media were left in disbelief by this unexpected development. Advertisement "This can't be true," a comment on X read. "Imagine that 🤭" said another. "Bruh how is this possible 😭😭" wrote a user. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese (5) reacts to an official during the first half against the Dallas Wings. Mandatory Credit: Chris Jones-Imagn Images "Never in my life heard so much about damn rebounds lol.." a reaction read. "There's no way 😭" another said. "I've never heard of a stat like this..." posted a reader. While a few other supporters argued that Reese has long been known for her rebounding prowess, most fans just couldn't fathom how Reese now has more boards than points in her career. Critics on social media could not help but bring up her inefficiency from the field and how this has become a major issue for her. For what it's worth, Reese is currently making just 30.9% of her shots this season, which is a significant dip from her 39.1% shooting clip last year. Advertisement On Saturday, Reese recorded eight more rebounds than points. If this trend continues, it would not be surprising if the discrepancy between her rebounds and points grows even more.
