STATE CHAMPIONS! 🥇⛳️
The Columbus Catholic Boys Golf team has done it again — STATE CHAMPIONS! Incredible accomplishment by this group of student-athletes and coaches. Your hard work, dedication, and commitment all season long paid off in a huge way.
Congratulations, Sailors!
Being a college football coach takes everything.
There’s long nights and constant work.
But Alex Golesh said the hardest part is what it can cost you…

Luke Falk shared a Mike Leach story that stopped me cold:
Two kids. One rich. One poor.
Every training camp, Coach Leach told his team about these 2 kids.
The rich kid has two choices.
Get soft. Get entitled. Expect everything handed to him because he was handed more.
Or take the resources, the coaching, the opportunities, and compound them into something greater.
The poor kid has two choices too.
Say nobody gave him anything. Blame the world. Make his circumstances the reason he never became what he could have been.
Or outwork everyone in the room.
Luke said the locker room had both. Kids from wealth. Kids from nothing. Kids with every advantage. Kids who scraped for every inch.
Same choice for all of them.
Ownership or victimhood.
Fuel or excuse.
The rich kid can waste the head start or build on it.
The poor kid can drown in the deficit or weaponize it.
Greatness doesn't come from where you start.
It comes from which kid you choose to feed.

Former NFL Linebacker Will Compton was PREACHING in this segment with @NDFootball about Creating Evidence. A must watch regardless of title, age, or industry:
👮♂️ You start with BELIEF, you stand on EVIDENCE. Facts don't care about feelings. When you get there, nobody cares HOW you got there, they care about how you can HELP.
👨⚖️ One Rep ➡️ One Day ➡️ One Week ➡️ One Game ➡️ One Year. At the end of the year, you're graded and judged by the evidence of your WORK. Evidence doesn't just arrive, it's acquired and accumulated everyday. It’s never one moment, it’s the accumulation of all of them.
🏷️ Let Proof Override Labels. Creating Evidence isn't about running from the truth, it's about creating so much proof that past labels become irrelevant.
🧵 Everything matters. Every rep has meaning. Even when you can't see it. Too tired, too emotional, too worn out to see or hear it, but it still means something. So you must TIE meaning to it. The smallest action either adds to your case or subtracts from it, tie purpose to all of it.
🖋️ Facts are permanent, but they do not define who you are, or who you have to be in the future. The truth is the starting point, not the ceiling. Face it, use it, and build forward, the obstacle is the way.
Love this from #Illini head coach Brad Underwood - asked if he has any issue/finds it unfair to have to play Houston IN Houston in the Sweet 16.
"I could care less... I'm an old JUCO ball coach. I drove on 16 passenger fans. I drove from Dodge City, Kansas to Mesa, Arizona for a basketball game... If you had told me back then that I'm getting to coach basketball in the Sweet 16 and play Houston - I would sign up for it, I would crawl to get there."
Says regardless of where the game is, Illinois would/will need to play well to beat the Cougars.

Fresno State Head Coach Matt Entz got off to a good start in 2025 in year one going 9-4. He kept that momentum going by signing the BEST RECRUITING CLASS EVER In Program History by AVG Recruit Ranking in 2026. The 84.97 AVG is 0.99 points higher than 2025. The class is led by 3 star CB Isaiah Lucero who had offers from BYU, Utah, Arizona and Michigan State. 3 star EDGE Jake Plummer is 6'6 with exceptional athleticism, he should give QBs nightmares. An under the radar player to watch for is 3 star EDGE Solomon Baker from Omaha Nebraska who could develop into a quality starter. Coach Entz definitely has this program heading in the right direction.
The transfer portal may grab most of the headlines, but JUCO programs continue to produce high‑level talent across all divisions—especially in Division I.
Here are the JUCO programs that have placed the strongest 2026 classes:
Karson Sharar is a LB prospect in the 2026 draft class. He scored an unofficial 9.54 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 150 out of 3215 LB from 1987 to 2026.
Splits projected, all times unofficial, agilities left to run, bench tomorrow.
