@WilliamsonNFL @BDPeacock The 2026-27 Steelers defensive backfield should be its best since…?

Great to see @DeanMarchick named interim president AU — the university couldn’t be in better hands!

[American University @AmericanU]

Today, American University announces that President Jonathan Alger will step down on June 30, 2026, as he prepares to become the inaugural America 250 Fellow, a joint appointment with the American Council on Education (@ACEducation) and the American Association of Colleges and Universities (@aacu). David Marchick (@DeanMarchick), dean of the Kogod School of Business (@KogodBiz), will serve as interim president beginning July 1, 2026.

The AU community is grateful for President Alger’s leadership and looks ahead with confidence as Dean Marchick leads the university forward, building on the momentum of Meet Our Moment and AU’s mission to prepare students lives and careers of meaning and purpose.

The French for "quarterback" is "quarterback" but pronounced exactly as you'd expect.

@WilliamsonNFL @WesleyUhler Any chance you could get a referee on the show when they come to town this summer?

@WilliamsonNFL @WesleyUhler Matt - sounds like you’re cooking your hard-boiled eggs too long. Try 9-10 mins, no more.

[Tony Fratto @TonyFratto]

@WilliamsonNFL @WesleyUhler You’ve said the @steelers won’t use all 12 picks (you’re probably right). If you HAD to lose 3 of those picks, what would your strategy be going in? which picks would you trade and to move up in which rounds? Moving up in the 3rd? Getting an extra 4th? Can they get another 2nd?

*Couldn’t they keep all 12 and just sign fewer UFAs? If they get lucky and hit on a late pick at least they’d have control, right?

Markets expected central banks to hike rates as oil prices rose, but history suggests that rates could come down before the end of the year as higher prices start to weigh on growth, according to Goldman Sachs Research.

@WesleyUhler @WilliamsonNFL Thanks for taking my Q! But my point was trade your 26 #1 for someone’s 27 #1 so you can then package those two ones in 27 to guarantee you get in a good slot for a top QB.

I know next year you can always package a future #1, like the 2028 #1, but I'd think there would be real demand for two ones in the same draft. Two ones would at least get the Steelers to picks 8-9, Id think.
