The first Birmingham #Stallions player to sign an NFL contract this offseason.

Alex Cook has signed with the Los Angeles #Rams.

Year 5, still doing his thing.

#Stallions LB Kyahva Tezino is now the all-time modern spring football leader in tackles, with 385. Jumps up to well over 400 including the postseason.

One of the greatest to ever do it in this space.

@VikingWaxPress @profbtherapy @AFPAltFBPanel @TheOfficialAFN @XFLMikeG @Rick_8Bit @ZombPhoxUFL @DCullorsUFL @Run68bone @MattyFreshTV I need those two LB’s from The Stallions.

[BirminghamSports @BirminghamSport]

Give the Stallions a marketing budget and they will succeed. Look at the facts:

• #1 TV market in the UFL
• 50%+ growth in single-game ticket sales
• 3x spring football champions

Give the right people resources and spring football will succeed in Birmingham.

HAS DC CLINCHED…OR NOT?

If DC wins, LOU wins, or BHM loses, DC is in the playoffs.

But what if DC loses, LOU loses, and BHM wins?

Each team would be 5-5.

The first tiebreaker is H2H.

But that wouldn’t apply here because DC beat BHM, who beat LOU, who beat DC.

The next tiebreaker is Strength of Victory.

Current SoV: BHM (.500), LOU (0.422), DC (0.422)

If this scenario played out, then depending on who wins between STL & DAL, BHM SoV would either be 0.460 or 0.480, DC would be 0.440, and LOU would either be 0.380 or 0.420.

In that case, BHM would be the #3 seed.

Then, because tiebreakers reset in a three-way tie after the first team gets in, LOU should be the #4 seed over DC due to H2H.

DC would fail to make the playoffs.

Gotta say I have really enjoyed watching @TheUFL this season, some good football with some good football players… the NFL needs to get behind this and use to grow players like they used to with #NFLEurope (I know the incredible value it would have)!

[Skip Holtz @CoachSHoltz]

Thank You to the Birmingham Stallions, AJ McCarron and the entire UFL Brass for Honoring Lou Holtz today. He loved the Stallions!

[James Larsen @JamesLarsenPFN]

News: Safety Kenny Robinson has announced his retirement from football.

Robinson began his pro career in the XFL in 2020, landing an NFL opportunity in Carolina.

In the #UFL, @krob2__ has been known as one of the hardest hitting safeties in spring football.

Unfortunately, an injury Friday night has put an end to what was a tremendous career.

[Charleston Southern Buccaneers @csusports]

It is with deep sadness we share about the passing Jon Davis.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Davis family. We are thankful for his 30+ years of service to the CSU community and athletic department ranging in roles from coach to pastor and all the roles between. Incredibly appreciative for all the support that goes beyond words provided by Jon to us over the years.

Giddy up 🥷🏾

[T.J. Vernieri @TJVernieri]

Still available and believe I have a lot to offer to any team.
