Chiefs summer scouting: Texas A&M Aggies offensive line
Ar'maj Reed-Adams is a DAWG at Right Guard (even took some Right Tackle snaps in this one) The Kansas City Chiefs turned over two positions along their offensive line this summer and could explore more changes next spring depending on the performances of Jawaan Taylor and Kingsley Suamataia. Fans should closely monitor the Texas A&M Aggies offensive line for potential Chiefs targets in the 2026 NFL draft. Four of Texas A&M's starting offensive linemen possess NFL talent. Unlike Clemson's defensive front, the Aggies don't have any future first round selections in the trenches. However, the collection of fourth through sixth round prospects makes the unit one of college football's most talented fronts. The four Aggies eyeing NFL futures include left guard Chase Bisontis, right tackle Dametrious Crownover, right guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams and left tackle Trey Zuhn III. Backup right tackle Reuben Fatheree II, who previously lost his starting role to Crownover, also has the potential to attract attention from the NFL. Bisontis is a quick guard with exceptional range in the run game. He's at his best on the move due to his unique mobility, speed and understanding of angles when operating in space. Bisontis is an aggressive blocker who seeks pancake opportunities, but he ended up on the wrong end of some clashes in 2024 against powerful opponents like Vernon Broughton, Alfred Collins and Cam'Ron Jackson. Reed-Adams meets all of the league's size requirements and overwhelms undersized defensive tackles. His broad frame and NFL-caliber power make him an imposing interior presence capable of anchoring against power rushers or torquing defenders out of gaps. His core and grip strength jump off the tape. However, Reed-Adams' agility and lack of suddenness make it easier for twitchy interior rushers to capture his outside shoulder. His mental processing speed must improve to negate some of his athletic limitations. Reed-Adams' impact in the run game is inconsistent because of concerns with his balance, pad level and range. Crownover is a hulking offensive lineman with a prototypical frame for an NFL tackle. When he engages his hands early in plays, Crownover uses his sheer size and power to overwhelm smaller edge rushers. Many pass rushers fail to threaten his anchor with power or escape his reach with explosiveness. Crownover's size is a double-edged sword. He plays with a high pad level and mediocre foot speed that limit his range and leverage. His hand usage leaves plenty to be desired. Crownover's lack of ideal athletic traits and poor leverage limit his ceiling. Zuhn is a beloved leader who served as a team captain in 2024. He's a quick processor and high IQ prospect with polished hand usage that makes up for some of the issues with his arm length. Zuhn frames blocks well and quickly refits his hands to maintain leverage. Unfortunately, his poor foot speed, average anchor and forward lean in his pass set suggest he should transition to playing guard in the NFL.

2 Texas A&M OL return as PFF's highest rated offensive tackles in the SEC
2 Texas A&M OL return as PFF's highest rated offensive tackles in the SEC Heading into the 2025 college football season, Texas A&M's offensive line will be the key to victory in nearly every game, especially on the ground for the Aggies' deep running back room led by senior Le'Veon Moss and redshirt sophomore Reuben Owens. Returning every starter in the trenches, senior left tackle Trey Zuhn, left guard Chase Bisontis, and right guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams all possess first, second, or third-round NFL Draft potential. In contrast, Zuhn and Reed-Adams could have left for the NFL last offseason. However, right tackle Dametreous Crownover is also a name to watch, possessing the size at 6'7" and footwork to become a long-term starter at the next level. According to Pro Football Focus, Zuhn and Crownover are two of the top six highest-rated returning tackles in the SEC this coming season, bringing two to three years of starting experience in the toughest conference in the country, and will be responsible for keeping starting quarterback Marcel Reed clean throughout the demanding schedule. Against SEC pass rushers, Zuhn finished with an impressive 80.5 pass protection grade, while Crownover's run blocking grade (76.0) was better than his pass protection mark (69.1) last season. Still, under O-line coach Adam Cushing's tutelage, both players should improve in both areas. Texas A&M's offensive line depth will also play a significant role, including 2025 five-star offensive tackle signee Lamont Rogers, who might be took skilled to keep on the field in certain packages, and will be a player to watch this fall.

District prepared to cut millions of dollars from budget if levy fails
A local school district is asking voters to approve a 6.9 mill operating levy in May. [DOWNLOAD: Free WHIO-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] As reported on News Center 7 at 6:00, Huber Heights City Schools Superintendent Jason Enix said the district is prepared to cut more than $7 million of its budget if the levy doesn't pass. TRENDING STORIES: 10,000 people under boil advisory after 'major' water main break in Troy Man changes plea after being accused of shooting a teen near Joe Mixon's home 'I played dead;' Man covered in bruises thankful after surviving violent armed robbery The levy would cost roughly $242 per $100,000 in appraised property value, according to a previous News Center 7 report. An operating levy has not been passed since 2005. 'That cost savings package was again, part of our board agenda last night. That was approved, pending the outcome of the campaign levy ballot issue, that is on the ballot for May,' Enix said. This also is the seventh time the district has requested a levy for operating funds since 2005. If the levy doesn't pass, the district will eliminate 60 jobs, increase the price of extracurricular activities and raise school and course fees by 20%. 'Does include staffing positions in the classrooms, as well as paraprofessionals, support staff, administration, pretty comprehensive reduction,' Enix said. Some parents told News Center 7 that they hope the levy passes, while others said they already pay enough taxes. Crownover has lived in Huber Heights since 1968. He values education, but inflation has taken its toll on his budget. 'It's not much, and that gets eat up by everything else that goes up because Medicare is not free,' Crownover said. Enix recognized that the district has one of the higher cash balances in the region, but says without new local funds the district has been reliant on state increases and federal grants — including the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER) which ended in January. Voters will cast their votes for the levy on May 7. News Center 7 will continue to follow this story. [SIGN UP: WHIO-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]

‘I've met my obligation': Woman wants answers after HOA added 10 years onto timeshare
A metro Atlanta woman says she thought after 29 years she was finally out of her timeshare contract, but then it was re-upped for another 10 years without her consent. 'I feel like I've met my obligation. I've paid this for 29 years,' Sherri Crownover over Roswell told Channel 2 consumer investigator Justin Gray. It was back in 1996 that Crownover first signed up for the timeshare at Golf Club Villas at Big Canoe. 'We love the mountains,' she said. But her children are now grown, and her husband is seriously ill. 'We enjoyed the timeshare for years. And I just was looking forward to being out of it,' Crownover said. Her contract was set to expire at the end of 2024, but there is a clause in it that says, 'unless extended as provided in the declaration.' In January, Crownover got a bill for the $100 maintenance fees for 2025. 'They said, well, according to our records, you're still actively a member of this place,' she said.

'I would be dead and buried before they ever let me out of this thing,' Crownover said. 'Honestly, I can't say that I have seen a contract like this,' said Rich Folk from Timeshare Contract Resolution, a company that helps people get out of timeshares. 'For somebody to hold somebody's feet over the fire on a contract like this that was signed so many years ago if it's not illegal, it certainly should be.' A company called Capital Vacations manages the timeshare. But Capital Vacations said this was a decision of the HOA board, not them, telling us in a statement: 'The Association's Declaration allows for the Association to be extended for 10-year periods if a majority of the owners of the Association vote in the affirmative…This extension is a benefit to the owners and will allow them to enjoy all their ownership offers for at least another decade.' 'I'm not planning on paying it. I don't think I should have to,' Crownover said. A spokesman told Channel 2 Action News that Capital Vacations would be willing to act as a liaison between the board and the owner to 'see if there is a solution.'
