Here’s a reminder of Steve Sarkisian’s track record with QBs as a coach: 2001-2003 QBs Coach at USC: Carson Palmer, Matt Leinart 2004 - Raiders QB coach: Kerry Collins 2005-2008 - USC QBs/OC: Matt Leinart, John David Booty, Mark Sanchez

Sources: Texas is expected to give an up-tick in first-team quarterback reps to redshirt freshman KJ Lacey Jr. this week in practice. Arch Manning still projects as the Texas starter. The uptick in Lacey’s reps is a signal that Texas could replace Manning if he continues to struggle.

Sark has never developed a quarterback to be successful in the NFL aside from MAYBE his first, Carson Palmer. He either inherited an already developed QB, or didn’t succeed in developing a guy for the NFL.

My point is I think it’s wild that Arch Manning trusted his career with Sarkisian, and I don’t think we know the full picture on Manning for the NFL until we see him outside of Sark. Not saying Manning won’t be a bust, but it is astonishing how bad Sark has been with QBs

It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

And now we’re onto game 2 of our Shore Conference Tournament boys soccer semifinal doubleheader in Neptune! It’s Manasquan (13-2-1) against Toms River East (15-1) for the other spot in the final. Two unlikely paths to this spot, and both trying to win their first Shore title.
