Corn Flakes: DB and RB Recruits, and Swimming

Photo by Zach Bolinger/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Also, crazy land fish. Tomorrow is the last swim meet of the season for my boys. It is amazing how much progress you can see in a one month sport. My youngest swam last year, and his times are nearly half of what they were last year. My oldest tried it out this year as well. Since he is 11 he swims a 50 instead of 25. That’s a lot for a kid that hasn’t done it...

Nebraska Lands Underrated North Carolina Running Back Jamal Rule

Photo by Williams Paul/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Nebraska’s June recruiting roll shows no signs of stopping, as the Huskers have landed 3-star running back Jamal Rule out of Charlotte Christian in North Carolina. At 6-foot, 205 pounds, Rule brings good size, burst, and a nose for the end zone. He chose Nebraska over offers from Michigan State, Syracuse, Virginia Tech, and NC State. While his name might not be familiar to everyone just yet, Rule has the production—and the upside—to change that quickly. Thank...

Corn Flakes: A Tight End Commit for NU, LSU Sweeps College World Series and a Chicken Is Loose at BWW?

Photo by Jay Biggerstaff/Getty Images Plus, who doesn’t love surfing dogs??? As I type this, the Thunder are leading the Pacers in the NBA finals by 20 points. It doesn’t look good for Indiana, especially after losing Haliburton to a leg injury early in the game (see clipped link below). I’ll check back in the morning to see if I accidentally made a “Dewey Defeats Truman” mistake… Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton exits Game 7 with Achilles injury – ESPNTyrese Haliburton was helped off in the first...

Nebraska Adds Tough, Talented Tight End Luke Sorensen

Photo by Ian Johnson/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Nebraska continues to build serious momentum on the 2026 recruiting trail, this time landing 3-star tight end Luke Sorensen out of Servite High School in Anaheim, California. Sorensen checks in at 6-foot-4 and 245 pounds, with the kind of frame that’s only going to get more dangerous once he gets into a college weight program. Ranked the No. 19 tight end in the country and the No. 41 player in California, he adds another physical, versatile weapon...

Thursday Flakes: Lakers worth $10 Billion, Men’s College World Series and Game 6 of NBA Finals

Photo by Jakub Porzycki/NurPhoto via Getty Images Don’t forget the joke of the week… If there is anything I have learned as a parent, it is everything takes more time and patience teaching a kid good habits. Kids challenge every fiber of your being as they grow up. I can handle a fair amount of things, but I can also go from 0 to ticked off in a giant hurry. It’s the one quality I gained from my parents that I wish I wasn’t capable...
