“When you allow your children to grow up it’s a direct, direct reflection of your parenting. If you hover over them all the time and they can’t work through problems, they’re going to have some issues. You’ve got to let them work through problems because they’re working through the things you’ve instilled in them,” Dawn Staley Let them learn.

Never Forget when Ken Griffey Jr. turned on a 104 MILE PER HOUR fastball for a grand slam 😳

Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo: "The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."

Akheem Mesidor is the best pass rusher in this draft that half the league is going to talk itself out of taking early. The tape says first round. The age and injury history say proceed with caution. Wherever you land on that tension determines where you grade him. Transferred to Miami in 2022, logged 38 tackles, 10.5 TFLs, and seven sacks in his first season in Coral Gables. Then the foot happened. A serious foot injury wiped out all but three games of 2023. He came back in 2024, split time inside and outside, posted 5.5 sacks, earned All-ACC honorable mention. And then in 2025, working under Hall of Famer Jason Taylor, he put together the best season of his career. The final numbers: 63 total tackles, 17.5 tackles for loss, 12.5 sacks, four forced fumbles. First-team All-ACC. Second-team All-American. Ted Hendricks Award finalist. Academic All-America first team. He capped it with two sacks against Indiana in the national championship game, which Miami lost 27-21. He led the team in sacks over Rueben Bain, who’s going to be a top pick. That’s the caliber of player we’re talking about. The pass rush toolkit is the selling point, and it’s genuinely elite for this class. Swipes, arm-overs, cross chops, club-rips, bull rushes, push-pulls, and swims are all on the table. He sequences his moves seamlessly, and when his initial rush stalls, he counters without hesitation. the common knock on productive college rushers is that they win on athleticism alone and don’t have a plan. Mesidor has a plan every snap. He fires off the ball with outstanding snap anticipation and converts that initial burst into relentless pressure, threatening the corner before pivoting inside with what’s been described as a devastating Euro step. He reads when tackles overset to the edge and punishes them by attacking inside gaps with counters rather than running the arc into waiting arms. He’s versatile enough to rush from a two-point stance, play defensive end in a four-man front, or slide inside on obvious passing downs. At 6’3”, 265, he’s dense enough to hold up inside and quick enough to win outside. He coordinates well with teammates, often working the same side as Bain, and he’s skilled at executing stunts and twists, he can squeeze through narrow interior gaps by getting skinny. That inside-outside flexibility matters in a league where defensive coordinators want their rushers to be moveable pieces. The same explosiveness that makes him dangerous as a rusher works against him when he’s trying to stay on his feet and redirect. The injury history is the elephant in the room. He’s had surgeries on both feet at West Virginia and at Miami; that have caused him to miss significant chunks of his career. He missed nearly all of 2023 and even missed time in 2025 with another foot issue. For a player whose game is built on first-step quickness and burst off the ball, recurring foot problems are about as concerning as it gets He turns 25 in April 2026. That’s before he’s even drafted. You’re paying for what’s already on tape, not a developmental ceiling. The good news is that what’s already on tape is really, really productive March 23 pro day is where the athletic profile gets confirmed. The floor is a productive rotational rusher who gets after the quarterback on third downs from Day 1. The ceiling is a 10+ sack starter in the right scheme. He’s 25. He’s not a project. He’s a finished product with an elite skill, real limitations, and feet that need to hold up. If they do, someone’s getting a steal

Players and parents have to understand that watching other people’s offers and their social media can send you down a mental spiral that will get out of control. What’s going on with someone else has nothing to do with you.

Congrats Sir!
