Auburn among top schools in hunt for three-star TE Landen Miree
Auburn among top schools in hunt for three-star TE Landen Miree Auburn joins programs such as Florida State, Washington, and North Carolina who are looking to sign Landen Miree.
Auburn football is in the mix to land a top-30 tight end from Ohio.
Landen Miree, a three-star tight end from Cincinnati, Ohio, recently released his top six schools, with Auburn making the cut. Miree has also scheduled an official visit to the Plains, which will take place during the week of May 30, according to a report by Allen Trieu of 247Sports.
Miree had a breakout season at Princeton High School in Cincinnati by making 29 catches for 404 yards and six scores as an 11th grader. He went over the 100-yard mark in Princeton's 38-21 loss to Archbishop Moeller, catching six passes for 127 yards and two touchdowns. Miree came close to reaching the century mark again when he hauled in six passes for 96 yards and a touchdown in a 14-6 win over Lakota West in September.
Auburn will be Miree's first stop on his official visit tour this summer. He will take official visits to North Carolina (June 3), Cincinnati (June 6), Florida State (June 13), and Washington (June 20). Miree will also visit LSU at a later date.
Miree is the No. 30 tight end according to 247Sports' composite rankings, and is the No. 26 recruit from Ohio. He has zero crystal ball predictions from 247Sports, but On3's Recruiting Prediction Machine lists Washington as the favorite with an 84.9% forecast. Auburn is next with a 3.3% chance to land him.

Myrtle Beach city manager backs Horry County's $8.25M offer to end joint Pelicans Ballpark lease
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WBTW) — A key Tuesday vote that would give Myrtle Beach total ownership of Pelicans Ballpark is supported by the city's top administrator amid an $8.25 million offer by Horry County in exchange for ending its part of a stadium lease agreement. The facility, which is in need of $20 million in improvements to come into compliance with Major League Baseball standards, is currently 70% owned by the city and 30% by the county. City leaders last month agreed to take on full responsibility and accept $6 million in county to aid to pay down those costs. Since that time, the county has agreed to an even higher, one-time payment with Myrtle Beach being on the hook for all maintenance costs beyond that. The council will also take a final vote on an ordinance with a new 30-year lease agreement between Myrtle Beach and the Pelicans. The lease payment would be $750,000 for the first 10 years, $850,000 for the next 10 years, and $950,000 for the final 10 years. The team's future on the Grand Strand fell in limbo after Horry County leaders approved a different lease agreement than the city previously approved earlier this month. The city expressed disappointment in the county afterward. Pelicans team president Ryan Moore urged fans to attend the meeting — and for councilmembers to approve the deals. 'Tomorrow is do or die for the Myrtle Beach Pelicans. A 'Yes' vote keeps the team in town for the next 30 years. A 'No' vote would mean the end for the Pelicans,' he wrote in a post shared on the team's official Facebook page. 'We've cried tears of joy together. We've cried tears of grief together. We've fought through adversity together. And through it all, we have stayed together and are better off for it. All because of the special place we call Pelicans Ballpark.'

A trade proposal that brings tight end Mark Andrews to the D.C. would continue the Washington Commanders' "all-in" approach to this offseason.
A trade proposal that brings tight end Mark Andrews to the D.C. would continue the Washington Commanders' "all-in" approach to this offseason. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Washington Commanders have already made a point that they are targeting proven offensive talent to build around breakout star Jayden Daniels to get as close as possible to a "win-now" window. Advertisement Acquiring All-Pros in left tackle Laremy Tunsil and receiver Deebo Samuel sures up gaps in crucial positions, but there remains one question mark that could make Washington's offense one of the best in the league: a tight end. Zach Ertz is a solid contributor, but he is going to turn 35 this season and may not be looked at as a long-term answer within the offense. Writer James Dudko of believes the Commanders should pursue a trade with the Baltimore Ravens to land a star tight end in Mark Andrews. Andrews, a former 1st Team All-Pro selection, could pair with Samuel and Terry McLaurin to create a lethal pass game that Daniels could easily thrive in. Advertisement "[Andrews would] join a depth chart already brimming with numbers, but there's still room for a clutch chain-mover and prolific playmaker in the red zone," Dudko said. The Ravens may already have a replacement waiting in the wings in young tight end Isaiah Likely, so with Andrews on an expiring contract, Baltimore could move on from their seven-year vet at the right price. In this deal, a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft could be a worthy offer. Andrews ranks as a top-5 tight end in the NFL when healthy and has proven that he is capable of being a security blanket within a group loaded with talent. Advertisement Upon signing a contract extension, McLaurin will complement Samuel by being an all-around receiving target. Samuel's dual-threat capabilities are as versatile as they come and Daniels' extraordinary rushing ability can get him out of trouble with ease. This all could allow Andrews to find space in intermediate routes through the middle of the field and fortify a diverse offense for coordinator Kliff Kingsbury. Andrews may just now be hitting the peak of his career at 29 years old, so with Baltimore's decision looming between choosing him or Likely this offseason, they could decide to get ahead of things and deal the veteran to Washington for draft compensation. Last year, Andrews caught a career-best 11 touchdowns, while also converting 39 of his 55 grabs into first downs, according to Pro Football Reference. Those numbers are a young quarterbacks best friend and allow for a fit in any offense, let alone one as dynamic as the Commanders' already is. Advertisement More star power, like Andrews, on offense opens Washington's Super Bowl window wide open for the next few years.
