MSU target, 4-star RB Damon Ferguson commits to Pitt
MSU target, 4-star RB Damon Ferguson commits to Pitt Michigan State football is still in search for a running back prospect in the 2026 class, with another top target now off the board. Four-star running back Damon Ferguson announced his commitment to Pitt on Monday morning. Ferguson posted on his social media X account to announce his commitment to the Panthers, which comes after taking an official visit there this past weekend. Ferguson is a four-star running back prospect with a recruiting rating of 89.33 in 247Sports' composite system. He ranks as the No. 26 running back and No. 381 overall prospect in 247Sports' composite rankings for the 2026 class. Michigan State is one of a few schools that were prioritizing Ferguson's recruitment before his commitment to the Pitt Panthers. He was set to take an official visit to Michigan State next week, and Indiana, Minnesota and Virginia were also heavily involved in his recruitment with official visits either planned or already occurring. Michigan State has now struck out on a pair of four star running back prospects in Ferguson and Kory Amachree of nearby Haslett, Mich. The Spartans will need to look elsewhere as their running backs board is starting to look thin in the 2026 class.

WATCH: Former Ohio State player throws out first pitch at Detroit Tigers game
WATCH: Former Ohio State player throws out first pitch at Detroit Tigers game Now that the NFL draft is over and the first-timers that were selected have gone through rookie minicamp, the entire rosters of NFL teams can get on with the status quo of starting to get other camping opportunities underway, all leading up to fall camp and the start of the season. Former Ohio State defensive tackle Tyleik Williams was one of the 14 Ohio State football players taken in this year's draft, and he landed in an uncomfortable spot if you will, up in Michigan with the Detroit Lions when they selected him with the No. 28 pick in the first round. He isn't the first -- nor will he be the last -- former Buckeye to play his professional ball at TSUN (Chris Spielman anyone), but he'll have to make a good impression or perhaps face the wrath of those who loved to root against him in college. One way to do that is to make the rounds in the community, and Williams was doing just that over this past weekend by not only attending a Detroit Tigers baseball game but by throwing out the first pitch. It wasn't a seed thrown to the plate, but rather a smooth and soft delivery that at least won't get any viral moments, though it was a bit high. If you haven't seen Williams' first pitch against the Cubs on Sunday, get a look here thanks to the Detroit Tigers' "X" (formerly Twitter) account. There are several former Buckeyes getting comfortable in their new environments and cities in the NFL, and as more of these moments are made available, we'll continue to bring them to you.

Gabriel Landeskog's Clear Message Amid Avalanche Offseason
Gabriel Landeskog's Clear Message Amid Avalanche Offseason originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The story of Colorado Avalanche star forward Gabriel Landeskog is an inspiring one. After being away from the NHL ice for nearly three years due to a serious injury, Landeskog finally returned to action in Game 3 of the Avs' first-round series against the Dallas Stars in the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs. Advertisement Although the Avalanche ultimately failed to advance to the second round after losing to Dallas in seven games, Landeskog's return was a notably positive takeaway from Colorado's 2024-25 season. Before the final screening of the TV miniseries "A Clean Sheet: Gabe Landeskog," which is based on Landeskog's journey while dealing with his injury, the Swedish pro opened up about what he's been up to since the Avalanche's elimination at the hands of Dallas. 'I've been back in the gym, back on the ice, and I'm feeling good,' Landeskog said, per Evan Rawal of The Denver Gazette. Avalanche left wing Gabriel Landeskog (92) looks on during the third period against the Miron-Imagn Images Selected second overall in the 2011 NHL draft by the Avalanche, Landeskog immediately proved to Colorado that he was the real deal, as he scored 22 goals and recorded 30 assists for 52 points in 82 games during his rookie campaign in the league. Advertisement His performance in that season was enough to earn him the 2011-12 Calder Trophy award. He reached what can be considered the pinnacle of his time with the Avalanche in 2022 when Colorado won the Stanley Cup for the first time since 2001. Landeskog, who has a cap hit of $7 million each season until the end of the 2028-29 campaign, has 248 goals and 323 assists in 738 regular-season games in his career with Colorado.
