Former Auburn Star Kerryon Johnson Downplays Alma Mater

The 2025 football season is shaping up with notable stories across college programs. Former Auburn star Kerryon Johnson expressed a surprisingly lukewarm pride in his alma mater, Auburn Tigers, responding with an 'Eh' when asked if he was proud to be a Tiger, sparking discussion about athlete idolization. At Davie High, a detailed look at football records highlights standout performances, such as Nate Hampton's 437 pass attempts in 2019 and Cooter Arnold's 2,344 rushing yards in 2004, underscoring the rich history of local football excellence. Meanwhile, Kentucky football coach Mark Stoops emphasized a renewed culture of accountability and physicality, celebrating 100% participation in summer workouts for the first time in 13 years as a step toward restoring the program's competitiveness. LSU baseball, under Jay Johnson, continues to dominate, securing its second College World Series title in three years and solidifying its status as a national powerhouse poised for a dynasty. These narratives illustrate the varied and dynamic state of collegiate sports as new seasons approach.
