Year 2 for Tyler Shough on Airline Drive is quite different than Year 1. He's the Saints starting quarterback, no competition anymore. Shough went 5-4 as the starter last season. Now with a possible full season as the leader of the offense, the Saints can fully focus on ending their five year playoff drought.

Lane Kiffin on the return of Will Wade to LSU: "If you're passionate about a place and you're a really good coach, that's a really good combination. I know there's a lot of judgement about whether he should go and he just got there. Everything is everybody's story. You got one life to live. What they want to choose to do, and believe what their story is after they get the best information they can from the people that are closest to them, and they make their decisions. In my opinion, it's that person's job to prove that decision right. It does speak volumes of LSU. There's somebody that understands everything about LSU, understands the power of LSU. Went through a very unique situation, a break up. Then makes the decision to come back. To me, that says a lot about LSU."

Caught up with LSU running back Harlem Berry this afternoon at House of Cards. I asked the St. Martin's alum why he's returning to the Tigers in 2026. How Lane Kiffin was going to use Berry in the Tiger offense was the overriding factor. Berry could be joined by Kewan Lacy for a dynamic 1-2 punch in the LSU backfield.
