Ohio State five-star commit visiting other schools
Ohio State football commit, Chris Henry Jr. has setup a number official visits for the upcoming months with one to Miami in May and three in June that include USC, Oregon and of course Ohio State. The five-star receiver from California has been committed as a Buckeye since July 28, 2023, but OSU fans are allowed to be a tad anxious considering there is enough time from now until pen meets paper for something fishy to occur, especially in the new NIL filled college football landscape.
A consensus top five receiver in the class of 2026, it is no secret that every school is wanting a piece of Henry and it doesn't appear anyone is going to stop pursuing just because he 'committed' to Ohio State. It will be interesting to see how the recent promotion of Brian Hartline effects his recruitment as most would consider their position coach getting a promotion as a major plus.
Henry has commented on the news of the Hartline promotion saying that he loves this move and 'Coach Hartline knows how to develop receivers better than anyone, and now with him as OC I know he's going to put us receivers in the best position to dominate for sure.'
The Buckeyes are working hard to put together a historic class for 2026 and the 6-foot, 5-inch star is a big part of that class. Players with his mixture of size and speed do not come around very often and he has the potential to make an impact early and often wherever he lands.

Arthur Smith addresses play-calling drama involving ex-Steelers QB Russell Wilson
Arthur Smith addresses play-calling drama involving ex-Steelers QB Russell Wilson Russell Wilson left the Steelers for the Giants this offseason — but it didn't stop Arthur Smith from setting the record straight regarding his former QB. Back in February, insider Gerry Dulac reported that Smith prevented Wilson from changing plays at the line of scrimmage like he did against the Cincinnati Bengals, leading to a clash of minds. NFL Network reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala claimed that these reports were a ploy by Wilson's camp — but the Steelers offensive coordinator didn't take these allegations lying down. At Day 2 of mandatory minicamp's media availability, Smith downplayed the rumors as a "fantastical narrative" that any plays were being called at the line of scrimmage — and ultimately blamed the 2024 offensive failures on being "not good enough." One of the biggest issues with the Steelers scheme, both offensive and defensive, is the inability to adapt when the plays are too predictable — and Smith's comments don't instill confidence that it'll change in 2025.

BYU's AJ Dybantsa Becomes College Basketball's Top NIL Earner
BYU's AJ Dybantsa Becomes College Basketball's Top NIL Earner originally appeared on Athlon Sports. BYU's AJ Dybantsa is already turning heads before the 2025-26 college basketball season. As the No. 1 player in the country, he's already projected as the top pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. But his moves off the court are just as good. Advertisement Dybantsa saw a significant jump in his On3 NIL valuation recently. He moved up to $4.1 million and cracked the top five for the first time in his career. As it stands now, the 6-foot-9 power forward is only $200K away from Miami QB Carson Beck at No. 2 ($4.3M) and $100K from Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith ($4.2M). Arch Manning is firmly at the top with a valuation of $6.8 million. However, Dybantsa is the top college basketball earner after landing deals with Nike and Red Bull. Dybantsa is on a contract with BYU to receive over $7 million this season, according to Adam Zagoria of the New York Times. An NIL offering he denied at the McDonald's All-American Game.

One of the biggest contributors is Utah Jazz and Utah Mammoth owner Ryan Smith. But underneath it all is Kevin Young. The Cougars coach came to Provo after being an NBA assistant for the Phoenix Suns and Philadelphia 76ers. His detailed guidance and pro-ready approach is why Dybantsa decided to sign with BYU.

The upcoming season will be fun to watch as Dybantsa has already said he's one-and-done before turning pro.
