"That was a player's win in every way...
...as Abdul told the guys at halftime, no matter what empty the tank, no matter what come back in here with nothing left, and that's what they did"
John Harbaugh's opening statement after the Giants' win:

John Harbaugh took over a last-place Giants team that had endured double-digit loss totals in eight of the past nine seasons.
Now they’re first in the NFC East and have matched their win total from last season.
Despite losing their starting QB, sack leader and leading tackler to injuries.
Coaching is important.

Appreciate the chance to spend time @Marist_Fball yesterday for a GameDay Visit. Thank you @CoachMWillis and @CoachGutierrezA who showed real intention in how they teach, prepare, and compete. Strong culture, sharp energy, and a program that clearly invests in its players.

People and organizations don’t become irrelevant simply because they get older. They become irrelevant when their thinking fails to evolve with the world around them.

If you truly believe that D3 doesn't treat sports like a job in 2026 then you are a dinosaur completely out of touch with reality.
I don't have an opinion one way or the other on athletic scholarships in D3 because I have no control over that. But to see these traditionalists clutch their pearls and pretend that D3 doesn't treat athletics like a business are still believing it's the 1980s.
The D3 ideal of a balanced college experience went out the window years ago. It's time this division catch up to modern times or get left in the dust. That doesn't mean it needs athletic scholarships, but it does need some modernization.
D3 doesn’t ban athletic scholarships by accident. It bans them on purpose.
No scholarship = no pressure to treat sports like a job. Athletes stay students first. Why is that an issue? Result of their approach? Highest graduation rates in the NCAA, the most participants, and kids who actually play for the love of the game.
Force scholarships and you kill the only division that still operates as the last form of amateurism in the country.

Do it all player. Receiver, Corner, and even kicker. Willing to do anything and everything for his team! Coaches take a look.

I was watching a high school game with a coach from a P4 school. He was recruiting a great receiver. The QB threw a pick and the receiver didn’t even try to make a tackle. He jogged a few steps then stopped. The P4 coach said, “that’s all I need to see.” Don’t let a lack of effort get you taken off the board.

There is no rain in the forecast for Sunday’s Dolphins-Jets game in New Jersey, seemingly a rarity. Since 2022, it has rained for 40 percent of the Jets’ home games.

I’ll leave you all with this to think about as we await the public seeding:
Many say the product is down in the Big 6. To me, that theory couldn’t be more wrong.
The coaching and game planning are incredible. The talent at all 11 positions is WAY up. It’s just dispersed. Look at the stat lines of the best kids from 2025. Yards and TDs are harder to come by this year.
Had one coach tell me these games are like boxing matchups. He’s not wrong. Everyone has a style.
There’s youth and chaos all over, but this certainly isn’t “mediocre football”. Buckle up for what should be an insane final month. #NJFootball

FINAL…
No. 9 St. Joseph (Mont.) 10

Cannot make this league up this year. The Green Knights defense was absurdly good today. #NJFootball

Class Act: Pat McAfee says he gave his employees backpacks with $250K in cash after negotiating a nine-figure contract with ESPN.
"I negotiated a $100 million deal. Then you talk about the boys. I gave them backpacks with $250,000 in it."
👏👏👏

Wow: Giants RB Cam Skattebo reveals that he could be cut by the team if he doesn't improve his play.
"Nobody's safe...if I don't perform, I know there's a possibility of me not being here."
No one is safe in New York 🫣

🚨 #NJFootball statisticians, coaches & ADs 🚨
Not to be a curmudgeon, but passing and receiving yards have to add up equally. It's not humanly possible for them to be different. Also, there are half TFLs and sacks, but no such thing as a half tackle. Solo and assisted tackles should be entered as full tackles.
