Three-Star TE Isaac Jensen commits to Missouri Tigers
Three-Star TE Isaac Jensen commits to Missouri Tigers originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Missouri Tigers head coach Elijah Drinkwitz added another piece to his 2026 high school recruiting class on Monday when three-star tight end Isaac Jensen announced his commitment to the Tigers. Advertisement "MIZ! Let's work!" he said in a commitment post shared with On3's Hayes Fawcett and his followers on X. Listed by 247Sports at 6'6" 230lbs, Jensen hails from Millard South High School just outside of Omaha, Nebraska, and he is no stranger to winning. During his first three seasons with the Patriots, Jensen has helped Millard South to a 28-8 record and the 2024 Nebraska Class A Football State Championship. Jensen is the second recruit from the group of prospects that visited Columbia last weekend to choose Mizzou, with Florida-based four-star wide receiver Jabari Brady announcing his commitment to the program on June 7th while still being on campus. Mizzou head coach Eli Drinkwitz is building on a small 2026 recruiting class with his latest addition of a three-star tight end out of Omaha, Nebraska. © Nelson Chenault-Imagn Images Even though Jensen has committed, that doesn't mean that the Tigers are done recruiting the tight end position. Advertisement Michael Swain of 247Sports reported last month that Mizzou is expected to take two tight ends in the 2026 high school class. This is no surprise, as the Tigers have a tight end room that tapers off once you get past junior starter Brett Norfleet, with no clear number two. The next uncommitted tight end set to venture to Columbia for an official visit is Kansas City product Kevin Sullivan on June 20th. Sullivan is set to visit with the Tigers last, after taking official visits to Kansas, Iowa State and Vanderbilt. It remains to be seen how Jensen's commitment will impact Missouri's pursuit of Sullivan, but his recruitment will be another one to watch for Mizzou fans. Monday's news brings the Tigers' 2026 high school class to four, with Jensen joining the aforementioned Jabari Brady along with four-star linebacker Keenan Harris and four-star quarterback Gavin Sidwar.

Can schools like St. Bonaventure and FIU thrive in college athletics without the big bucks?
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — As schools prepare to begin sharing millions with their athletes, there is no avoiding the reality that if you're not a Power Four school, you're at a disadvantage. With major conferences running the show, St. Bonaventure and Florida International don't even have a seat at the table. FIU and St. Bonaventure aren't necessarily worried about a head-to-head fight over top players with deeper-pocketed schools. The priority has become survival and finding a balance between athletics ambition and financial sustainability. Adrian Wojnarowski spoke candidly about the challenges he faced during his inaugural season as the general manager of the St. Bonaventure men's basketball team. Solidifying a recruiting class that would improve the team and embrace the school culture was not easy. After July 1, when lucrative paychecks will pretty much become mandatory for blue-chip prospects, it's not going to get any easier. With some 2,000 undergraduate students, the Bonnies are outnumbered in resources and revenue when competing even against other Atlantic 10 teams like VCU, Dayton, and Saint Louis. Wojnarowski, ESPN's former lead NBA reporter, thinks he has identified a formula for locating the ideal prospect. To him, St. Bonaventure is a landing spot for international players adjusting to a new culture and college life, transfers who may have fallen short at a high major and need development, or those looking to move up to a mid-major. He admits the school upstate New York could be a pit stop on a player's journey. 'I want them to see that our environment, our coaching staff, our small school, especially for international players coming over, what I really try to sell is your adjustment to American college life,' he said at the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and Affiliates Convention this week. 'I think for a lot of kids, it's easier in a school with 1,900 students than a school with 19,000. And you'll come to have two great years with us, and then you'll probably end up at schools with 19,000 or 29,000,' he said. 'And so you're selling, for us, we're your first step on the way to somewhere else, or the other one to me is we're the place to come when you've got to get the basketball right.' If the plan goes awry and a recruit slips away, one thing the former NBA insider refuses to do is blame the money. 'Fundraising is hard, creating new revenue streams is hard, but the one thing that I try to stay away from with us is not saying, 'Oh, we didn't get him because they offered more money,' and using that as a crutch all the time. I really examine when we lost a player,' Wojnarowski said. 'Are we being honest with ourselves in saying that we did everything outside the economics to make our case to this person?' FIU has more than 40,000 undergraduates, but the athletic department is using a similar philosophy, pinpointing advantages and opportunities to come from the settlement instead of the negatives. Similar to St. Bonaventure, FIU doesn't expect to come close to the $20.5 million revenue-sharing cap available over the next year. For a competitive edge, unlocking new revenue streams is fundamental. 'To compete, from a revenue standpoint, you have to think outside the box of your conventional fundraising and targeting donors,' senior associate athletic director Joseph Corey said. 'That's why you're looking at concerts being held at different venues, different festivals to generate extra revenue to bring in, different revenue streams, and not just fundraising going after the same donors. You've got to go beyond that in order to be able to compete.' Being based in Miami has its perks. Proximity to celebrities is one of them. In August, FIU secured a 10-year partnership with Pitbull, the singer and rapper who coins himself 'Mr. 305.' 'We did the partnership with Pitbull – Pitbull Stadium. He's on tour, but part of the deal was that he would be collaborating with us and doing events for us from a fundraising standpoint,' Corey said. 'You've got to think outside the box. Especially in a city like Miami, it's about the experience too.' Schools unlocking creative revenue streams is something that can be expected. FIU competes in Conference USA alongside teams like Liberty, Louisiana Tech, UTEP, Kennesaw State and Jacksonville State. The football team went 3-5 in 2024, finishing sixth in the conference. The men's basketball team finished last with a 3-15 conference record. It's hard to sell donors on losing teams. 'Let's call it what it is, FIU's not going to be able to keep up with the Alabama's of the world, the Georgia's, Michigan, or Texas, but what can we do? We can be the best in our conference. That is our goal,' Corey said. 'Let's be the best in our conference and really compete there because once you're at the top of your conference, that means more revenue in other areas. Everyone wants to donate to a winner.' ___ AP college sports:

The Nationals Got A Historic Haul For Juan Soto, But It May Not Be Enough
PALM BEACH, FL - FEBRUARY 23: Left to right, Nationals stars James Wood, MacKenzie Gore, CJ Abrams ... More and Dylan Crews pose for a photo in the dugout before a Spring Training game between the Washington Nationals and the New York Mets at CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches on February 23, 2025. (Photo by Thomas Simonetti for The Washington Post via Getty Images) Juan Soto could retire right now and the Nationals still wouldn't have gotten enough for him at the trade deadline in 2022, simply because it's impossible to ever get enough for a potential all-time franchise player and inner circle Hall of Famer. Soto, who presumably will not retire right now and will not turn 27 until October, already has 39.0 WAR, per Baseball-Reference, which already ranks 28th all-time amongst position players through their age-26 seasons. If he'd accumulated all of that in a Nationals uniform, he'd already rank seventh in Expos/Nationals history, fewer than three full seasons behind Gary Carter (55.8 WAR). As is, the 21.4 WAR he accumulated in four-plus seasons with the club ranks 14th. But the Nationals did as well as any team could do upon deciding to trade a generational superstar. Forty percent of Washington's first pitch lineup in Tuesday's 5-4, 10-inning loss to the Mets — pitcher MacKenzie Gore, shortstop CJ Abrams, left fielder James Wood and centerfielder Robert Hassell III — was acquired from the Padres, along with veteran infielder Luke Voit and minor league pitcher Jarlin Susana, in exchange for Soto and Josh Bell on Aug. 2, 2022. 'I love it, I really do,' Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Tuesday night. 'These guys, it's good to see them up here, It's good to see them playing well, They're the core of our future and they're learning everyday and they're really starting to get it.' Thirteen of the top 24 active leaders in WAR among position players have been traded at least once in their prime (Starling Marte has been dealt three times). Per WAR, the players the Nationals received for Soto already ranks as the third-most productive return behind the package Cleveland got from the Mets in 2021 in exchange for Francisco Lindor and the players the Pirates received from the Giants in exchange for Andrew McCutchen in 2018. While Hassell, who played in his 17th big league game Tuesday night, has yet to register any WAR, Gore, Wood and Abrams have combined for 17.9 WAR since the trade — including 7.2 WAR this season, when they rank first, second and third on the Nationals in the category. Even without major contributions from Hassell or Susana, the latter of whom has yet to advance past Double-A, the Abrams-Gore-Wood trio is likely to surge past the Cleveland and Pirates returns in WAR this season. Andres Gimenez and Amed Rosario combined for 23.1 WAR with the Guardians, but both have been traded and the final two players Cleveland acquired, outfielder Isaiah Greene and pitcher Josh Wolf, have yet to reach the majors. Kyle Crick and Bryan Reynolds have accounted for 20.3 WAR with the Pirates, who have the fifth-worst record in the majors since the McCutchen trade. (In case you want to know why the Marlins are the Marlins and the Rockies are the Rockies, they got a total of 2.3 and 2.0 WAR, respectively, in return for Giancarlo Stanton and Nolan Arenado) Yet Tuesday night also served as a cautionary tale for the Nationals — one filled with promise but also no guarantee they can mount a return to serious title contention without either locking up their core or augmenting it with stars from outside the organization. Soto, who as you may know by now signed a $765 million deal with the Mets in December, homered in the fourth, but Gore threw six solid innings while lowering his ERA to 2.88 and increasing his major league-leading strikeout total to 114. He exited in line for the win thanks largely to Abrams, who had three extra-base hits — a homer and two doubles — as he became the first shortstop to deliver three extra-base hits in multiple games this season. Wood was 1-for-4 with a walk, but two of his outs were productive grounders to first base with Abrams on second. Hassell finished 0-for-4 and just missed making a sliding, inning-ending catch of Soto's RBI double in the eighth. Pete Alonso tied the score with a run-scoring single two pitches later off Nationals closer Kyle Finnegan. Edwin Diaz and Reed Garrett then set down six straight batters before Jeff McNeil delivered the walk-off hit. The victory was the latest reminder the Mets are willing to acquire high-end talent by any method under Steve Cohen — and that the Nationals who signed Scott Boras clients Patrick Corbin, Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg to nine-figure deals have been in hibernation for more than half a decade. The Nationals allowed Bryce Harper (also a Boras client) and Anthony Rendon (guess what, also a Boras client) to exit as free agents following the 2018 and 2019 seasons, though Harper's departure ensured the daily mood of the franchise would no longer be measured by his mercurial nature and letting Rendon walk might go down as the greatest inaction in baseball history. But the trades of Scherzer, Soto and Trea Turner (yup, a Boras client) in 2021 and 2022 are the ones that underline just how much more the Nationals have to do even after securing the best possible return in exchange for a superstar. Care to take one guess as to who represents Gore and Wood as well as 2023 first-round pick Dylan Crews?
