Somehow, the Texas A&M fight song played as he walked out for his time slot as opposed to the Texas fight song. If you're not aware, Texas and Texas A&M have a huge, huge rivalry between each other.

This is an epic gaffe for the SEC Media Days team to play this song of all songs during Sark's entrance.
We're sure Aggies fans across the country delighted in seeing their hated rival's coach walk out at an event to the Texas A&M fight song. We're also sure Texas fans will be recoiling in terror for weeks after seeing this.
Poor Sarkisian. He's the real loser in this, as he had no control over a clip that will undoubtedly make the rounds for the entire 2025 college football season.
At least his quarterback is Arch Manning, so he's got that going for him.

Contract details for new Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey fully revealed
Jalen Ramsey's contract details have just been fully revealed — and here's what Steelers fans should know about Pittsburgh's newest cornerback. According to Spotrac, a well-respected source of information on sports finance, Ramsey's contract with the Steelers is a four-year, $84.7 million deal — including $19.5 million in guarantees, all of which he'll receive this upcoming season. Ramsey's 2025 cap hit is set at $4.904 million, and his 2026 salary includes only $3.5 million in injury-only guarantees — an absolute steal for Pittsburgh. It was previously speculated that the Dolphins had to trade Ramsey in a player-for-player deal due to his expensive contract — which might explain why the Steelers sent away one of the NFL's highest-paid safeties in Minkah Fitzpatrick. While both defensive backs involved in the trade are considered past their prime, Ramsey's versatility to play outside, in the slot, and at safety offers Pittsburgh an arguable upgrade over Fitzpatrick — whose lack of splash plays played a part in the Steelers' eagerness to deal him.

Inside Eagles' C.J. Gardner-Johnson Trade Saga and His Complicated Exit from Philadelphia
Inside Eagles' C.J. Gardner-Johnson Trade Saga and His Complicated Exit from Philadelphia originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The C.J. Gardner-Johnson trade saga continues to unfold months after the Philadelphia Eagles dealt the safety to the Houston Texans in March. What began as a straightforward financial move has evolved into a public back-and-forth, revealing deeper complexities behind the decision to part ways with a key contributor to the Eagles' Super Bowl LIX championship. Gardner-Johnson's initial reaction was measured and respectful.'This decision wasn't mine, but I walk away proud of what we built together,' he posted on social media following the trade announcement. 'To my teammates: Brothers, we bled, cursed, and laughed through it all. To the coaches and front office: Thank you for trusting a kid from Florida with a chip on his shoulder to lead this defense.' But his tone shifted in later interviews. Speaking with KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson, Gardner-Johnson said he felt 'highly disrespected' by the trade.'Never was an All-Pro or Pro Bowl! Never! Led the league in interceptions. What more do you want?' he said. He also grabbed headlines with a video claiming the Eagles 'probably won't see a ring without me,' though he later retracted that statement. On The Pivot podcast, Gardner-Johnson offered his most revealing comments. When asked why the Eagles moved on, he bluntly replied, 'Scared of a competitor. Simple as that.'Pressed for clarification, he added: 'You can't program a dawg.' He pointed to practice altercations as a tipping point.'We had a little scrum at practice. Nothing, just offense vs. defense, but who's the culprit of it? Me, I guess, because we're competing,' he said. 'Well, you tell me the period is live. You're telling us not to compete during a live period, but it's a live period, and we're getting ready for a playoff game?' Gardner-Johnson also described feeling trapped in a no-win situation with the organization.'If I come in smiling, happy, and joy, 'Oh, he's too much.' If I come in there, just quiet, nice to meet you, how you doing? Yes, sir. No, sir? 'Oh, something's wrong with him.' And so that's two-faced war. I don't know how to play it,' he said. Importantly, Gardner-Johnson later walked back his harshest comments. On the podcast, he apologized for questioning the Eagles' championship hopes.'It's a disrespect to Jalen Carter, A.J. Brown — I can name all those guys on that team — Lane Johnson,' he said. 'Lane is my big vet and Lane would tell me, 'Hey, [C.J.], I got your back, but when you do too much, I don't got your back.' And that's one of those moments that's too much. Apologizing to the guys in Philly, I got nothing against them. And if they win six more rings without me, they deserve it, because that's the type of players they are.' The Eagles' stance on the trade has stayed consistent. General manager Howie Roseman cited financial factors, noting the team's priority was locking down other key players within salary cap constraints. Eagles insider Jason Dumas echoed that sentiment, reporting, 'This move was solely for financial reasons,' and adding that the Eagles 'wanted to get ahead of a big payday that is likely coming down the line.' Gardner-Johnson disputed that explanation.'It wasn't about the money,' he said. 'If it was about money, everybody would have been gone. How can I say this in the most respectful way? Saquon [Barkley] deserved it. Zack [Baun] deserved it, but the reasons behind it — the fans don't deserve that reason.' Complicating matters is Gardner-Johnson's nomadic NFL track record. He's now on his fourth team in four years — a rarity for a player of his caliber. Despite producing six interceptions, 12 pass breakups, and a forced fumble in 16 games last season, he's struggled to find long-term security. Pro Football Focus graded him at 76.0 in 2024, ranking 21st among 170 NFL safeties. Gardner-Johnson insists, however, that he's never had issues with teammates.'There's nowhere been a locker room where I had a single issue with a teammate,' he said. Now settling into his new role with the Texans, Gardner-Johnson admits he's still processing the trade but remains optimistic.'To be honest with you, I'm still shocked, but I'm happy,' he said. 'New, fresh start, meet new guys.' This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 17, 2025, where it first appeared.
