Inside Dorian Pringle’s rehab journey to the gridiron

After missing nine games last season with an ACL tear, linebacker Dorian Pringle has picked up right where he left off, anchoring the defense once again. Pringle sustained an injury he never thought possible while intercepting Liberty quarterback Ethan Vasko in week three of the 2025-2026 season. It was homecoming night for BGSU, playing under the Doyt L. Perry Stadium lights in Bowling Green, Ohio. “It was kind of like a surreal moment, you know,” said Pringle. “My first college interception, happy, and then that happens, and then there’s just a lot of emotions just going through my head, knowing that something wasn’t right in my knee.” In just three games, Pringle was on pace for a monster season, leading the Falcons in tackles with 27 total and 17 solo tackles. Combining Pringle’s stats against the Lafayette Leopards and Cincinnati Bearcats, he compiled 12 solo tackles, three tackles for loss and a forced fumble in just two games.

Oh, Mommy! It’s a Blue-Nami!!

A blue tsunami just hit the United States. It began on the East Coast, with the defeat of GOP senate candidates in both the Carolinas, and with a stunningly close run by the Democratic senate and gubernatorial candidates in Florida; and it quickly made its way west. By the time it hit the Pacific states, the tsunami had flipped at least seven GOP senate seats, with more potentially to come—Mississippi, Nebraska and Alaska still hadn’t yet been called as of this writing. The tsunami toppled nearly one quarter of the GOP-held congressional seats. It flipped the governorships of Georgia, Ohio and Texas–three of the most important Electoral College states in the country come the 2028 presidential election. And, as it thundered across the country, it led to huge gains for Democratic slates for state legislatures, even in heavily gerrymandered states such as Texas and North Carolina.
