Oregon Football new leader for 5-star OT Immanuel Iheanacho
When it comes to recruiting 5-star offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho, the Oregon Ducks have been among the leaders for a long time, and they appear to be creating some separation recently.
Over the weekend, 247Sports reported that Iheanacho is down to four schools at the moment, with the Ducks leading the way and the hometown Maryland Terrapins no longer in the running. This is notable, considering that Maryland was considered one of the leaders, if not the sole leader, in his recruitment until that point.
On Monday, the 247Sports Recruiting Staff logged a prediction for Iheanacho to end up at Oregon. He will take his final official visit to Eugene on June 22 and announce his commitment on August 5. Standing at 6-foot-7, 350 pounds, Iheanacho is a massive product who is among the top players on Oregon's board this cycle. The 247Sports Composite rates him as the No. 4 overall player in the 2026 class and the No. 2 OT.
The Ducks picked up a commitment from 5-star EDGE Richard Wesley over the weekend, and they also landed a projection to get a commitment from 4-star WR Messiah Hampton on Monday morning as well.

VOTE: Ohio State basketball nominated for UNISWAG Uniform of the Year
VOTE: Ohio State basketball nominated for UNISWAG Uniform of the Year The Ohio State basketball team didn't exactly do well on the court last season, but apparently, there are those out there who think the drip the team donned was quite fantastic. OSU is one of 15 teams that have been nominated by UNISWAG as a contender to take home the "Uniform of the Year" in college basketball. It's not just any uniform the Buckeyes wear, mind you, but the road, solid red kits the team wore at times. If you remember, those uniforms paid homage to some of the uniforms of the 80s that the OSU team wore with the likes of Clark Kellogg and Ronnie Stokes. The other schools that were nominated include Alabama, Boston College, Cal, Cincinnati, Clemson, Florida, Houston, Marquette, Minnesota, Northwestern, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas Tech, and UCF. You can help Ohio State out by visiting UNISWAG's website and casting your vote for the winning Buckeye ensemble through Noon on Monday, June 9.

PFF give Steelers rare praise — Zach Frazier ranked among top centers in NFL
PFF give Steelers rare praise — Zach Frazier ranked among top centers in NFL Pro Football Focus has given Pittsburgh some rare praise — ranking second-year Steelers C Zach Frazier among the very top at his position. PFF's Mason Cameron recently tackled the challenge of ranking the top 32 centers in the NFL for the 2025 season — and Frazier was ranked in the top three, just below Ravens C Tyler Linderbaum at second and Chiefs C Creed Humphrey at first. Here is what Cameron had to say about Frazier's placement as the third-best center in the NFL: "The Steelers hit it out of the park when they selected Frazier in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. At just 24 years old, he heads into his second year poised to build on an excellent rookie campaign during which he placed fourth in PFF overall grade (77.9) among qualifying centers. Frazier's all-around grading profile is solid, as he places above the 75th percentile as both a pass protector and a run blocker." Following future Hall of Fame C Maurkice Pouncey's retirement at the end of the 2020 season, the Steelers struggled to find his heir apparent — but Frazier looks to be the cornerstone at the position for the foreseeable future.
