Jack Endries continues to rack up preseason attention
New transfer, Jack Endries continues to garner preseason hype. He's been added to the Biletnikoff and Mackey Award watchlists. Jack Endries has been named to the Biletnikoff Award watch list 🤘@JackEndries x @biletnikoffawrd Texas has been busy getting news of their players being placed on different award watchlists and preseason All-American teams. Jack Endries has been at the center of that on both fronts, especially in the last couple of days. Endries has been placed on two major award watchlists as we head into the season, the Biletnikoff and Mackey Award watchlists. Jack Endries has been named to the Mackey Award watch list 🤘@JackEndries x @JohnMackeyAward The Biletnikoff is given out every year to the best pass catcher in the country(yes, TEs can win it, it's just very unlikely), while the Mackey is exclusively for the best TE in the country. Endries being on these lists is not too much of a surprise, but another great sign for the transfer from Cal. He has a 600+ yard season and a 400+ yard season to his name, and it's not far-fetched to think the best football is still ahead of him. Obviously, it is fair to say the Mackey Award is much more in reach for Endries this year, and I would say he's one of the favorites there. His 1,030 career receiving yards lead returning TEs in the country and heading into the TE-friendly Texas offense, it's not crazy to think he'll top his past marks this year. Endries is one of my favorite pieces that Texas added this offseason and it's being noticed by the national awards. Semifinalists for the Biletnikoff Award will be announced on Nov. 25, and a final vote to determine the winner will take place from Nov. 25-Dec. 6. The winner will be announced on Dec. 12 as part of the Home Depot College Football Awards on ESPN. If Endries was able to win the Biletnikoff, it would be Texas' first of all-time. For the Mackey Award, The recipient of the award will be presented at the Home Depot College Football Awards Show on Friday, Dec. 12, on ESPN. We will see if a Longhorn can take home the Mackey Award for the first time ever as well.

South Park goes full savage on Kristi Noem, JD Vance in fresh episode: And the internet's on fire
Hold onto your remotes, because South Park just dropped an episode that's pure cartoon chaos. The Season 27, Episode 2 gem, titled "Got a Nut", is already stirring up social media in a big way. And trust me, it's wild. The plot: Mr. Mackey joins ICE The episode starts with Mr. Mackey, South Park's beloved school counselor, being laid off. With bills piling up, his banker suggests he join ICE, because why not? In no time, Mackey takes up the job and is thrown into a satirical world filled with political absurdity. First stop: an ICE orientation video led by Kristi Noem . The show rehashes her 2024 memoir confession, yes, the one about shooting her dog, by having cartoon Noem say, "A few years ago, I had to put my puppy down by shooting it in the face, because sometimes doing what's important means doing what's hard." Then cue her shooting countless puppies, angels, even Krypto, Superman's pup, in scene after brutal scene. And because South Park loves the grotesque. Next, Mackey is whisked off to Mar-a-Lago, which South Park imagines as a bizarre mash-up of Fantasy Island and Epstein's private villa. He's greeted by Donald Trump and a pint-sized, bumbling J.D. Vance, decked out in a white suit. Vance looks like a baby-faced assistant from Fantasy Island, who gets called 'stupid,' kicked away, yet bounces right back. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Susan Boyle Is Now so Thin and Looks Beautiful! Undo Then, in one of the episode's most over-the-top moments, Vance casually asks Trump, "Would you like me to apply the baby oil to Satan's asshole, boss?" Yeah, it goes there. Meanwhile, Cartman channels his inner Charlie Kirk, hosting cringe-worthy podcasts and 'master-debating' college kids (the real Charlie Kirk didn't just take it in stride—he legit posted, 'Not bad, Cartman.'). J.D. Vance, ever the sport, posted a simple, 'Well, I've finally made it,' after seeing himself as a literal man-baby on the show. The Department of Homeland Security, which had earlier used South Park imagery to promote ICE hiring, gave a polite thanks for the free publicity. But since the episode aired, they've gone eerily silent. "This should be removed from children show" "This should be removed from children show. Why the woke content about s*x trafficking? Content clearly 18+," writes an X user. "It's the farthest thing from a children's show, and they've never marketed it as that. At the beginning of the episodes, they tell you: "Only for mature audiences," replies another. "Southpark is an equal opportunity offender who picks on everyone from all sides of everything," writes another. Why it's blowing up A few reasons why this episode is making waves: Brutal exaggeration. South Park doesn't just poke fun, it goes full-scale parody. The melting Botox face, puppy massacres, baby-oil-on-Satan jokes, it's cartoon-level ridiculousness with a political edge. Satire meets real life. Creepy, because it hits real politicians and true-life stories. Remember, Noem did admit to the dog incident; South Park just turned it into something completely over the top. Everybody's reacting. From Vance to Kirk to DHS, nobody's staying quiet, and that just amps up the meme cycle.

'South Park' Blasts Trump Administration So Hard, Even Heaven Gets ICE'd
'South Park' is not letting up on President Donald Trump ― and this time, the show also took on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Vice President JD Vance and the government's ICE raids on migrants. In the episode, Mr. Mackey loses his job as school counselor and joins ICE. There, he meets Noem, who keeps shooting dogs as the episode moves along ― including a service dog and Krypto from 'Superman.' She sends Mr. Mackey and his team to raid a 'Dora the Explorer' stage show. And when a protester says 'there are many, many Latinos in heaven,' Noem launches an ICE raid on the pearly gates. ICE vehicles swarm heaven and masked agents take down its winged residents, roughing them up and tearing off halos. 'Remember, only detain the brown ones,' Noem tells them. 'If it's brown, it goes down.' At the end of the raid, she celebrates: 'No more brownies in heaven!' Naturally, Noem shoots an angel dog while there. Mr. Mackey's success gets him invited to Mar-a-Lago, where he is greeted by Trump in a white suit and a tiny Vance, a nod to Mr. Roarke and Tattoo from 'Fantasy Island.' 'What is his fantasy, boss?' Vance asks, only to get punted like a football by Trump. The president invites Mr. Mackey into his bedroom, immediately tears off his pants and greets Satan, who is sitting in bed. And that's enough for Mr. Mackey, who decides to bolt. Along the way, the episode also skewers right-wing podcasters as South Park students Clyde Donovan and Eric Cartman launch competing shows. Cartman does his best Charlie Kirk impression as he tries to become a 'master debater' while sitting on the toilet, locked in the bathroom, where he records his podcast. The episode comes two weeks after the show skewered Trump by showing a very realistic non-cartoon president staggering through the desert, tearing off his clothes, ultimately revealing a 'teeny tiny penis.' The White House slammed 'South Park' as 'irrelevant,' but then ICE used a screenshot from this week's promo to try to recruit new agents. 'South Park' fired back with a message to ICE: 'eat a bag of dicks.' The latest episode is streaming on Paramount+. Welcome to Mar-A-Lago! # — South Park (@SouthPark) August 7, 2025

South Park Targets Kristi Noem In Latest Episode, Portrays Her As Dog-Killing Immigration Official
The US President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance again made appearances in the latest episode of South Park, a US-based animated series known for its bold humour and satire. The main target, however, was Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The second episode of Season 27, titled Got a Nut, featured Mr. Mackey getting fired from South Park Elementary due to budget cuts. He then joined US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The logline read, Mr. Mackey was "desperately tries to find a way to make a living." Holy shit, South Park had Kristi Noem and ICE raiding heaven, "Remember, only detain the Brown ones, if it's Brown it goes down." These guys are NOT holding back 🔥 🔥 — BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ (@mmpadellan) August 7, 2025 WATCH - Kristi Noem get wrecked. South Park Breaks the internet again. — DonkConnects ♻️™ (@donkoclock) August 7, 2025 Mr. Mackay even watched an orientation video from Noem where she said, "A few years ago, I had to put my puppy down by shooting it in the face, because sometimes doing what's important means doing what's hard." Notably, Noem previously admitted to killing her 14-month-old dog for exhibiting aggressive behaviour. In the episode, Noem posed with a gun in front of a Border Patrol van. She is also seen shooting multiple puppies and addressing ICE agent recruits via video, vowing to ensure everyone in the country is there legally. In a satirical take, ICE agents, led by Mr. Mackey, raid heaven. Her character said, "If it's Brown, it goes down." They even arrested Dora the Explorer as she is "brown". The premiere of Season 27 on July 23 mocked Trump in bed with Satan, which seemingly offended the White House resident. The White House spokesperson criticised South Park, stating it hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is desperate for attention. When ICE tried to reference the episode on social media, South Park responded with, "Wait, so we ARE relevant?" In the latest episode, Trump was rubbing Satan's leg under a dinner table, while Vance was seen offering a massage to Satan.

Throughout the episode, Noem, who in real life admitted to putting down her own dog, is seen shooting multiple puppies. Right-wing provocateur Charlie Kirk also features in the episode, doing his podcast on the toilet. Vance made his South Park debut Wednesday, offering a small tribute to Sean 'Diddy' Combs via a promise of a massage to the fallen angel. 'Would you like me to apply the baby oil to Satan's as***le, boss?' the veep asks about a potential MAGA ménage à trois. Following this, Krypto's efforts to save Mackey from getting pulled in bed with Trump and Satan at Mar-A-Lago ends badly. A White House spokesperson said of South Park last month, 'This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention.' However, when the ICE tried to be witty by sharing an image from tonight's episode, South Park made best use of the move. Sharing Homeland Security's post, South Park wrote, 'Wait, so we ARE relevant?'
