## Heat's Preseason: More Practice Than Proving Ground?

**Fans weigh in on exhibition games and roster moves.**

Anderson writes: "I like that the Heat are playing six exhibition games. There is so much we need to know. Now we can see where it stands with Jaime Jaquez, Nikola Jovic, Terry Rozier, and even if the rookie, Kasparas Jakucionis, is ready." 

"I still tend to view exhibitions more as nuisance than any type of nuanced laboratory," Ira responds. "Unless the opposition also is committed to the exercise, it is more difficult to get reads on players in preseason games than against teammates competing in practices... What Erik Spoelstra wants to see, he can better craft during practices." 

**Could Al Horford be a Heat target?**

Jason asks: "What about signing free-agent Al Horford? The Heat have a need at that position and he seems like a good fit with Heat culture and playing style." 

"The prevailing thought is that Al Horford will sign with Golden State once the Warriors work out their free-agency situation with Jonathan Kuminga," Ira reveals. "I also would think that Al would seek more of a win-now situation than the Heat’s if he is going to play this coming season."

**A Bold Trade Proposal**

Michael pitches: "If we get Nikola Vucevic for Terry Rozier and a second-round pick and then sign Kai Jones, then I would feel confident going into next season." 

Ira counters: "I know this speculation has been out there, but I can’t fathom why the Bulls would move on from Nikola Vucevic, even with his expiring contract, for nothing more than a second-round pick (considering Terry Rozier would be viewed as nothing more than a salary in such a deal). At some point, if a contender were to lose a big man to injury, the Bulls could have an upper hand in such a trade, potentially at least secure a first-round pick."

## Thomas Racking Up Preseason Honors

Oklahoma defensive end R Mason Thomas is having a strong start to the 2025 season, already landing on two prestigious watch lists.

### Back-to-Back Watch List Recognition

Thomas was initially named to the Bednarik Award watch list on Monday, putting him in the running for one of college football's top defensive player honors. Just one day later, he added another accolade to his resume:  the Lombardi Award watch list.

This prestigious award recognizes outstanding offensive and defensive linemen who exemplify the character and discipline championed by legendary coach Vince Lombardi. 


### Following in the Footsteps of Sooners Legends

Three former Sooners have already claimed the Lombardi Award: Lee Roy Selmon (1975), Tony Casillas (1985), and Tommie Harris (2003). Thomas now has the opportunity to join their ranks. 

### A Breakout Season Ahead

Thomas is coming off a breakout 2024 season where he recorded nine sacks and led the Sooners in pressures.  His performance earned him a spot on the 2025 All-SEC preseason second team back in July. He'll look to build on that success in his final year with Oklahoma.

##  Louisville's Newest Weapon: Sananda Fru Brings European Experience to Cardinal Court

Pat Kelsey has assembled a talented roster for the 2025-26 season, and one of the most intriguing additions is Sananda Fru. The 6-foot-11 German forward joins the Cardinals after a successful stint in Europe's Basketball Bundesliga, and his arrival has Louisville fans buzzing with anticipation.

### A Leap of Faith Pays Off

Fru committed to Louisville in February without ever visiting campus or meeting Kelsey face-to-face. It might seem like an unusual move, but it reflects a growing trend in college basketball: recruiting seasoned European players who are already battle-tested against professionals.

"It's easier to chase your dream," Fru told The Field of 68 after signing with the Cardinals. "Every young kid wants to play in the USA at one point — wants to make the NBA. I feel like the U.S. gives you the best chance."

Fru isn't just looking for any opportunity; he aims to contribute immediately.  He believes Louisville's fast-paced, aggressive style perfectly suits his skillset. "The way they're playing I think really suits me," Fru said. "Super aggressive, like to run, like big men who are more on the flex side — run the court, can stretch the court, play aggressive defense. I just think it suits me a lot, and that's a big reason why I chose them."

### From Bundesliga Star to Cardinal 

Fru was already making waves in the BBL before coming to Louisville. He led his team, Löwen Braunschweig, to a playoff berth in 2024-25, earning the league’s Best German Young Player award.

"Sananda's development over the past five years has been tremendous," said managing director Nils Mittmann. "This applies, firstly, to his steady improvement on the field, becoming one of the most dominant players in the BBL. Secondly, and especially, his personal development off the field from a teenager to a young man is remarkable — he is ready to take responsibility for himself and his environment — and that testifies to his maturity."

Fru averaged 12.4 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks in the playoffs, showcasing his ability to perform at a high level under pressure.  He was also a force in the regular season, leading Löwen Braunschweig in rebounding (6.7 per game) and shot blocking (1.7 per game).

### What Does the Future Hold?

Kelsey believes Fru's experience playing against seasoned professionals will translate seamlessly to the collegiate game. “He's a pro,” Kelsey said. "He's a grizzled veteran."

With several question marks surrounding Louisville's frontcourt for 2025-26, Fru could emerge as a crucial player from day one.  His ability to score around the rim, operate in pick-and-rolls, and defend at a high level makes him a perfect fit for Kelsey’s system.

The potential for Fru to develop into an NBA prospect is also exciting. As he continues to refine his game under Kelsey's guidance and with strength coach Eli Foy, Louisville fans can expect big things from their newest addition.

## Warriors Seek Historic Runs in Golf Season

Chillicothe — The high school golf season is heating up, with teams across the region showing early promise. 

Two programs, Adena's boys and girls squads, along with the Paint Valley boys team, are looking to make their mark this year.


### Adena Warriors Aim High

**Boys:**  Third-year coach Jeff Postage leads the Adena boys into the season, aiming for a sectional berth for the first time since 2016. Returning starters include Justin Brown (Senior), Broden Souers (Junior), James Graves (Junior), and Ryder Cheesebrew (Sophomore). Newcomers to watch are Ben Meyers (Senior), Corban Timson (Sophomore), Braxton Jadwin (Freshman), and Kicston Smith (Freshman).

**Girls:** The Adena girls team is aiming for a historic run, hoping to become the first team in school history to advance out of sectionals. Coach Postage emphasizes discipline and passion, stating, "Warrior Golf — built on discipline, driven by passion, defined by every shot we take.” 
Senior Sadie Penney, Junior Payton Wells, and Sophomore Avery Ater lead the charge after a successful season that saw Ater qualify for districts as an individual, finishing 12th out of 71 golfers.

Adding depth are newcomers Gwen Pierce (Junior), Grace Lawhorn (Junior), Makenna Hernandez (Junior), and Dixie Grigsby (Sophomore).


### Paint Valley Bearcats  Seek Experience

First-year coach Kameron Reed steps into the leadership role for the Paint Valley boys, guiding a team that finished seventh in the Scioto Valley Conference last season. Returning starters include Mack Leasure, Aiden Cooper, and River Mettler.  Newcomers Bentley Morris and Rexton Williamson look to contribute immediately. 

Coach Reed acknowledges the youthfulness of his team: "We are a younger team, having one senior, two sophomores and two freshmen. We plan on gaining experience this year and continuing to get better after every match.”

## Rattlers' Quarterback Race Heats Up, But Who Starts?

Florida A&M is getting ready for the 2025 season, and competition is already fierce. The Rattlers held their first scrimmage last Saturday, giving players a chance to shine under pressure. Head Coach James Colzie III sees talent on both sides of the ball, but two positions are particularly heated: quarterback and defensive end.

**Quarterback Battle Still "Wide Open"**

The race for starting quarterback is far from over. Five quarterbacks entered training camp: Traven Green, Tyler Jefferson, RJ Johnson III, Jett Peddy, and Bryson Martin. While all are vying for the position, Colzie singled out Johnson and Peddy for their impressive performance at the scrimmage. 

Johnson, a redshirt sophomore transfer from Toledo, and Peddy, a junior transfer from Long Beach City College, have both made moves up the depth chart. 


“RJ and Jett kind of moved themselves a little up," Colzie said. "But it’s still wide open.”

Whoever claims the starting role follows in the footsteps of Jeremy Moussa and Daniel Richardson, two former FAMU quarterbacks who were HBCU All-Americans and Southwestern Athletic Conference award winners. 


**Gardner Jr. Holding Down Edge Rusher Position**

On defense, the Rattlers are aiming to dominate at the line of scrimmage. Returning starter and Preseason All-SWAC Second Team selection James Gardner Jr. has solidified his position as a defensive end, edging out Antonio Camon on the depth chart. 


“Defensively, we play so many people. But James Gardner has done a really good job at moving himself as a defensive end,” Colzie said.

Gardner finished last season with 36 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks. Camon, a redshirt sophomore,  had limited playing time last year but impressed during training camp.


"When that happens, you have a guy like Antonio Camon, who’s also been having a great summer, has to move down," Colzie explained. "So, it's more of what James Gardner was doing and not what Antonio Camon wasn't doing.”

## Buffs Look for Bounce Back in 2025

WTAMU kicks off its 2025 season under head coach Josh Lynn, seeking to turn around a combined 8-13 record from his first two seasons. The Buffaloes open against No. 10 Western Colorado, who defeated them last year, on August 28th in Gunnison, Colorado. A home opener against Colorado School of Mines awaits on September 4th. But before the season begins, here are three key storylines for the Buffs.

###  The QB Carousel Continues

After a sluggish start to the 2024 season with Sean Johnson at quarterback, WTAMU found success when Kanon Gibson took over. Gibson led the team to a 4-2 record, showcasing his sophomore potential. However, he transferred to UT Permian Basin, leaving the starting position open. Johnson could return to the role, but Lynn and staff brought in several quarterbacks to compete:

Freshman Boston Bell (Canyon), Ryan Gafford (Stephenville), Wyatt Holmstrom (Seminole), and Anthony King (Copperas Cove) join redshirt freshmen Colt Mercer and Knox Porter. Transfers Nathan Greek (Tyler JC), RJ Martinez (Texas State), and Jonah McCown (Limestone) also add to the mix. 

###  Transfer DBs: Ready for Impact?

Last year, Cam Manahan transferred from Central Oklahoma and became a star in WTAMU's defensive backfield. This year, Lynn and new defensive coordinator Justin Richter have another opportunity to find an impact transfer player.

Jamel Acosta-Lewis (Caprock) returns home after playing at Colorado Mesa, while Anthony White (Abernathy) joins the team after starting at Texas Tech.  They’ll compete with a group of transfers: Antonio Williams (American River College), Marico Smith (Nebraska-Kearney), Deon Rebers (Long Beach Community College), Norman Manderson (Moorpark College), Miles Hill (Louisiana Monroe), and Phineas Allen (Northwest Missouri State).

###  Panhandle Freshmen to Watch?

The 2025 recruiting class includes several Texas Panhandle players hoping to make an immediate impact.  Tripp Wright, Braeden Massengale, and Breken Melton from Canyon, Randall, and Amarillo High respectively are all tight ends with different skillsets. Nash Dunnam (Amarillo High) also brings a unique 6-foot-10 frame to the position.

Massengale, at 6-foot-5 and 275 pounds, is a standout defensive lineman who impressed coach Lynn on signing day. His potential for early playing time is high.
