Arteta Reveals Arsenal’s Preseason Travel Disruption Strategy

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says he deliberately sabotages pre-season setups—delaying meals, altering travel, hotter dressing rooms and fewer massage beds—to train players to handle unexpected disruption, a tactic that proved relevant when a Napoli trip was delayed by about three hours. He insists the aim is to prevent excuses and to cultivate adaptability, a approach he has used across various warm-ups and travels to prepare for any context.

Jared Verse, acquired from the Rams to fill Myles Garrett's shoes, arrives in Cleveland focused on becoming a disruptive edge rusher as the Browns open against Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville.

Harrison Smith's Week 1 Status Unclear Against Packers — 2dHarrison Smith returned to the Vikings for his 15th season and is expected to play a prominent role on a defense that aims to contend for the playoffs, with coaches emphasizing plans to balance his veteran leadership with opportunities for younger players. Despite being 37 and having limited recent practice, Vikings officials say he’s in good shape and will be integrated based on his health and the team’s week-to-week needs against the Packers.

Maya Lindstrom It's smart to let the younger guys get reps against the Packers instead of forcing Smith into a big role right away.

Clemson to pay Georgia Southern $1.5 million for 2026 home game — 2dIn 2026, non-conference college-football scheduling features hefty guarantees, with South Carolina paying Kent State 1.3 million and Towson 550,000 for home games, while Clemson is set to receive 1.95 million total to host Georgia Southern and Charleston Southern. Separately, Clemson looks to rebound at a home opener against Georgia Southern after a season-opening loss, and UH is promoting a four-pack ticket giveaway for its Houston vs. Southern showdown, reflecting ongoing competition for attention and revenue across programs.

Maya Lindstrom Clemson shelling out 1.5 million to Georgia Southern for a home game feels like overkill even for a guaranteed win.

UNC skips recruit visits for ETSU opener after self-reported violation — 2dUNC will not host unofficial recruiting visits for its home opener against East Tennessee State after self-reporting a recruiting violation, with official visits to continue during the remaining home games as the NCAA process concludes. The situation follows leadership changes and an ongoing internal investigation within the football program, including the resignation of GM Michael Lombardi and scrutiny of coach Bill Belichick and other staff members.

Priya Raman Self-reporting the violation is the right call, but it still looks bad for Belichick's program right after the Lombardi exit and all the internal issues.
