The Washington Commanders released 2023 first-rounder Emmanuel Forbes on Saturday, cutting ties with another high draft pick from the previous regime. All of previous coach Ron Rivera's first-rounders — including edge rusher Chase Young in 2020, linebacker Jamin Davis in ‘21 and wide receiver Jahan Dotson in '22 — are now gone. Forbes never showed progress to the new staff led by coach Dan Quinn and was a healthy scratch twice this season and did not play in two other games during which the 23-year-old was in uniform.

AON Australia, which has more than 600 Australian private schools on its books, has named cyber risk as schools’ primary area of vulnerability, followed by mental health and social media, in its Independent Schools Risk Report . The digital world was the common thread linking the top three areas of risk for private schools. Credit: Getty Images For the first time in the decade that the broking firm has produced the report, child abuse allegations entered the top 10 risk areas for schools managing students’ online and real-world safety. In this context, the term child abuse includes abuse from fellow children or at the hands of adults. AON national education director Andrew Leahy said this in part reflected the 2017 release of the report of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. He said for many schools, getting insurance cover for child abuse was becoming “incredibly difficult”. An increasingly complex digital environment was the common thread linking the top three areas of risk for private schools, with cyberattacks becoming an established threat schools could not ignore. “You’ll never get in front of it,” Leahy said, adding that the nature of the information schools held made them vulnerable. “Schools have a lot of personal, identifiable information,” he said. “They have names, addresses, dates of birth, potentially medical conditions or counselling records as well as school records. There’s a lot of information there, which is very sensitive.” The “always on” expectations were a significant driver of mental health issues among students and staff, Leahy said, adding that a growing number of digital platforms, messaging apps and increased sophistication of AI had also compounded the risks schools had to manage. In June, fake nude images of 50 female Bacchus Marsh Grammar students were generated using AI and put on Instagram and shared on Snapchat. “The No.1 issue in dealing with students is social media,” principal Andrew Neal said. “One of the issues that we’re worried about is the capacity to cover off on harm caused by AI.” Neal said the private co-ed school was hit “virtually every day” with ransomware attacks, an experience echoed by Yarra Valley Grammar principal Dr Mark Merry. He said the school employed an external company to conduct penetration tests on the school’s system because of the devastating impact a cyberattack could have. “I can’t think of anything that would unravel parental trust in a school more than to have their personal details just dumped on the web,” he said. “It is a real risk, and to schools in particular, because of the nature of the information we hold.” The Australian Signals Directorate’s annual cyberthreat report, published last month, highlighted private schools’ vulnerability to cyberattacks , noting the perception by cybercriminals that private schools had a greater capacity to pay a ransom made them prime targets.

It wasn’t long ago that Florida’s deep-pocket boosters pooled together millions to fire Gators coach Billy Napier. Save that cash, folks. Better yet, throw it at the Florida NIL collective. Napier isn’t going anywhere. “We’re just getting started,” Napier said after Florida’s 24-17 upset of No. 9 Mississippi on Saturday that secured bowl eligibility for the Gators. “This is part of the big picture journey.” From embattled to emboldened, in six short weeks. This improbable climb, this you’ve-got-to-be-kidding-me rise from the rabbit hole of firing coaches and paying tens of millions in walkaway money, has finally reached the surface. To the big, beautiful light of winning games. If a win over LSU last week was hope, a convincing win over Ole Miss – the biggest win for not just Napier, but in 16 years for the floundering Florida program – is a statement of defiance. So he waked into the post-game press conference, and opened it by saying, "What do they say, are you not entertained?" Marcus Aurelius himself couldn't have said it better. There are numerous winners in this comeback for the ages, all contributing to what one day could be the turning point of Napier’s successful tenure at Florida. But none more than the coach who, prior to his biggest win in three seasons, was 16-19 in 35 career games as the Gators coach. It was falling apart in a cacophony of self-inflicted wounds and poor coaching, and was only a matter of time before Napier was fired and took everyone – the athletic director, a talented group of underclassmen, the hope of a passionate but gutted fan base – down with him. Florida boosters, infamous for their impatience, wanted Napier out and wanted to hire – how about this for irony? – Lane Kiffin from Ole Miss. In an absolutely stunning transformation, that was Kiffin on the sidelines at The Swamp, a dumfounded look on his face as his quarterback threw another interception to officially end the game. And that was Napier on the other side, a measured smile and a gracious soliloquy for television after the game. He better have gone off in that postgame locker room. He better have raised his voice and shouted from all high and declared this game, this moment, is where everything changes. This is where Florida, which hasn’t won the SEC or been nationally relevant since 2008, turns the corner. This is where Florida, which has thumbed through coach after coach (Will Muschamp, Jim McElwain, Dan Mullen) since 2011 while desperately trying to find the next Steve Spurrier or Urban Meyer, sells the future to one of the three most talented states for high school recruits. This is where Florida, which has ceded the SEC to Alabama and Georgia and LSU over the last 16 seasons, starts the turn to make it all the way back. It’s hard to ignore what Napier has been building over the last six weeks, and how it’s now clearly coming into focus. The Gators should’ve beaten Tennessee in Knoxville (lost in overtime), and – but for an injury to quarterback DJ Lagway – could’ve beaten Georgia earlier this month. We only focused on the losses, and how much closer they brought Napier to the inevitable reality of unemployment. We ignored a talented core of underclassmen beginning to figure it out, and a rare talent at quarterback with the ability to not only play at a high level — but get others to play to their ceiling, too. The defense, an historical mess over the last two seasons, got better when a group of players showed up at Napier’s office and told him the scheme had to change. It had to be simplified. Napier listened, and the unit has developed into one of the best in the SEC. Ole Miss had three trips inside the red zone Saturday, and didn’t get a point. Ole Miss failed on two critical fourth-down attempts, ending 65- and 69-yard drives with nothing to show for it. The Gators had four sacks and harassed Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart into his worst game of the season. This from a defense that couldn’t stop Miami if the season depended on it, and couldn’t stop Texas A&M’s backup quarterback if Napier’s job was on the line. Like it was. But not anymore. Billy Napier has climbed out of the hole, and into the big beautiful light of winning. Are you not entertained? Matt Hayes is the senior national college football writer for USA TODAY Sports Network.

Morrow, 29, recorded three tackles in 11 games (zero starts) this season before he was waived on Dec. 7. He has totaled 468 tackles, seven sacks, three interceptions, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries in 105 career games (58 starts) with the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders, Chicago Bears, Philadelphia Eagles and Bills. Spector, 26, had 40 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 11 games (four starts) this season before sustaining a calf injury in Buffalo's 24-21 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. He has totaled 52 tackles to go along with those 1.5 sacks in 26 career games (four starts) with the Bills since 2022. --Field Level Media
The Israeli government confirmed on Monday that Omer Neutra, a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, was killed during Hamas' attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Neutra, 21, was a tank platoon commander in the IDF. He was thought to be alive in captivity. His parents, Ronen and Orna Neutra, spent the last year campaigning for his release and the release of the remaining hostages thought to be held in Gaza. They spoke at the Republican National Convention in July, wrote op-eds, stayed in steady communication with the Biden Administration and the White House, and made regular media appearances, including with Scripps News . The whole time, they sought to pressure U.S. and Israeli leadership to resolve the hostage crisis. RELATED STORY | Families of Gaza hostages bring their message to both the current and upcoming White Houses "In the 423 days since October 7th, we expected our leaders to demonstrate the same courage displayed so bravely by Omer and rise to the occasion on behalf of those who were killed and kidnapped, just as our beloved Omer showed until the very end," Ronen and Orna Neutra wrote in a statement released Monday. "Leadership will only be revealed in actions and results going forward. We call upon the Israeli government to work with President Biden and President-elect Trump, to use all of their leverage and resources to return all 101 hostages — living and the deceased — to their families as soon as possible." A propaganda video released by Hamas Saturday showed Edan Alexander, an Israeli-American held hostage who was also captured while serving in the IDF. In the video, Alexander calls on Trump to keep negotiating for the freedom of the hostages remaining in Gaza. Trump on Monday demanded release of the remaining hostages, writing on Truth Social: "Please let this truth serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume office as President of the United States, there will be all hell to pay in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against humanity."“I loved our match.

Highly touted quarterback recruit Bryce Underwood flipped his commitment from LSU to Michigan on Thursday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter . The signal-caller appeared to confirm the decision on Instagram. Wolverines head coach Sherrone Moore was also quick to react to the news: Underwood is considered the No. 1 quarterback as well as the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2025 recruiting class, per 247Sports' Composite rankings . On3 previously reported on Nov. 14 that Michigan offered him a four-year, $10.5 million NIL deal in an attempt to flip his commitment to the Tigers. Underwood initially committed to LSU on Jan. 6. That didn't stop the Wolverines from attempting to flip the Belleville, Michigan, native. ESPN's Eli Lederman reported that Michigan was in contact with the passer throughout his senior season at Belleville High School. The program "intensified" the pursuit of Underwood "over the past two months" before he switched on Thursday, per Lederman. The Wolverines also flipped the commitment of 4-star safety Elijah Dotson, Underwood's high school teammate, on Wednesday. The quarterback position hasn't exactly been a bright spot for Michigan in 2024 following the departure of J.J. McCarthy. Alex Orji has made most of his impact on the ground, while senior Davis Warren has completed 61.6 percent of his passes for 869 yards and five touchdowns to go along with six interceptions in six appearances. As the Wolverines sit at 5-5 through 10 games, Underwood should immediately be able to compete for a starting job and help the team return towards contention in the Big Ten once again. Following his commitment, Michigan's 2025 recruiting class earned the No. 9 ranking in the country (via 247Sports ). While it's unknown if the Wolverines swayed Underwood with the exact $10.5 million NIL offer that was previously reported, the team's strong push to flip his decision to join LSU paid off.
LEADERSHIP CEO of the Year 2024 – Public Sector: MD/CEO Oil & Gas Free Zone Authority, Bamanga Usman JadaReview: Nicole Kidman commands the erotic office drama ‘Babygirl’Kentucky will aim to improve upon its best start in seven seasons when it hosts Western Kentucky on Tuesday night in Lexington, Ky., in the final game of the BBN Invitational. The Wildcats (5-0) are ranked No. 8 in the latest Associated Press poll and are setting impressive offensive milestones even for a program as tradition-rich as Kentucky, which includes eight national championships. The Wildcats have scored 97 or more points in their first four home games for the first time in program history and eclipsed the 100-point mark in three of those games. Their lone trip out of state was a solid 77-72 victory over Duke in a matchup of top-10 teams in Atlanta. Kentucky has also made at least 10 three-pointers in each of its first five games of a season for the first time ever. "I think Kentucky attracts good people," Kentucky coach Mark Pope said after the Wildcats' 108-59 win over Jackson State on Friday. "It's the one place in all college basketball where you represent just a fanbase in a different, unique way." Otega Oweh and Koby Brea have led the Wildcats' early scoring outburst. Oweh, who is averaging 16.2 points per game, had 21 points on 8-for-12 shooting against Jackson State. "He gets us off to unbelievable starts every night," Pope told reporters after that game. "He's probably been our most consistent guy in games." Brea, who scored 22 points against Jackson State and is averaging 16.0 points per game, is leading the nation in 3-point accuracy at 74.1 percent. As a team, the Wildcats are shooting 42.3 percent from beyond the arc. And the few times they miss, Amari Williams has been doing the dirty work on the glass, averaging 10.8 boards in addition to 9.6 points per game. Kentucky faces a different challenge than it's had to contend with so far in the Hilltoppers (3-2), who have won three in a row after losing their first two games to Wichita State and Grand Canyon. Their up-tempo play hasn't exactly resulted in great offensive output, but in the Hilltoppers' 79-62 win over Jackson State on Wednesday, they shot 45.2 percent from 3-point range (14 for 31). "I was happy to see a lot of different guys contribute tonight and, hopefully, get their feet under them a little bit and get some confidence," said Western Kentucky coach Hank Plona, who is in his first season as head coach. "Obviously, Tuesday will be quite a test and challenge for us and we'll need them to be at their absolute best." Western Kentucky has an experienced group, which returned mostly intact from last season. The team is led by Conference USA first-team selection Don McHenry, who is leading the team with 17.2 points and 2.2 steals per game. McHenry is one of four Hilltoppers with scoring averages in double figures. Julius Thedford (11.4 points per game) and Babacar Faye (15.0) are each shooting 40 percent or better from 3-point range. Western Kentucky also figures to challenge the Wildcats on the boards as it enters the game ranked in the top 25 in defensive rebounding (30.4 per game). Faye leads the Hilltoppers in that department, averaging 7.8 rebounds per game and figures to battle Williams inside. "We're not the biggest team in the world, but our depth and our quickness are our strengths," Plona said. --Field Level Media

Tommy Herschell spends his days saving kids’ lives. He is not a nurse or a surgeon, a lifeguard or a firefighter, rather each week the former teacher goes back into schools across the country to help put a stop to bullying. Mr Herschell brings bullies and their victims together, resulting in kids opening up about how being targeted by their classmates feels and, in many cases, seeing playground bullies break down in tears and confront their own behaviour. WATCH CHARLOTTE’S WISH DOCUMENTARY HERE His methods may go against the modern-day policies of many schools, but there is overwhelming evidence Mr Herschell’s self-funded Find Ya Feet programs work better than organisations with multimillion-dollar budgets. I t is why Mat and Kelly O’Brien, parents to 12-year-old Charlotte who took her own life after relentless bullying at school, asked for him to join politicians, education experts and leading principals at The Sunday Telegraph’s roundtable into bullying. Tommy Herschell of Find Ya Feet at the bullying round table. Picture: Rohan Kelly Mr Herschell told multiple stories that brought those in the room to tears, one of them about a young boy whose life he saved a few days after Charlotte’s death in September. “It was only a few days after Charlotte passed where a young fella stood at the side of the room and he said, ‘I’m at the point where I’ve had enough, I don’t want to be here and I want to take my own life’,” Mr Herschell said. Grieving parents discuss bullying in schools with ministers and industry leaders at the round table. Picture: Rohan Kelly. “I said, ‘Hey boys, let’s give this fellow an opportunity to tell his story’ and when he got to tell that story, all the other students understood him and could empathise with him. “A few days later that young man messaged me and he said ‘your workshop saved my life, and I’m just so grateful’.” Mr Herschell’s sessions see him rock up in a “Find ya feet” trucker cap and allow the occasional swear word. Sometimes he brings his mates, such as NRL star Nicho Hynes or Test cricketer Mitch Marsh, where they listen to kids and open up about their own experiences of bullying. When asked what he thought could change in the classroom, Mr Herschell said modern-day teachers were like “car salesmen who are not allowed to look under the bonnet”. “I’ve started putting counsellors in schools myself and I call them ‘mental mechanics’,” he said. “They dress like me, talk like me, have the odd swear word, but the improvement in these young people is through the roof .” More Coverage Crackdown on bullies: ‘No single issue that concerns parents more’ Cydonee Mardon and Josh Hanrahan Australia praised for world-leading social media ban Julie Cross and Angira Bharadwaj Originally published as Charlotte’s Wish: How Tommy became a caring, swearing mental mechanic to stop bullying Join the conversation Add your comment to this story To join the conversation, please log in.
