From a pre-NFL Draft story about Josiah Green, the former Dartmouth defensive line standout who played last fall at Duke (LINK):
The Dartmouth transfer had the second most pressures in 2025 among all defensive tackles and was Duke’s “Hard Hitter” award winner. Green really caught the attention of scouts at his pro day. He was not invited to the combine, but he did had a spectacular performance at his workout. His 36 bench reps would have been second among all players at the combine and his 10-yard split, his three cone and his shuttle would have been first among all defensive tackles at the combine and his broad jump would have been second.
And the bottom line from the piece:
Green is probably a a late-round prospect. He’d be worth a shot in the sixth round.

Another DJ Crowther story out of the Tampa Free Press quotes the former Dartmouth tailback now at South Florida talking about Buddy Teevens (LINK):
"Coach T had a real impact on me and has a special place in my heart,” said Crowther, whose full name is Darius Crowther Jr. “He was really personable. He was genuine and always cared about you as a person on and off the field. I remember he always preached about life after football. You were more than just a football player.”
And the piece includes this about the onetime Big Green back's future:
Crowther is far, far more than just a football player. He enrolled in a master’s program (entrepreneurship) at USF and may opt for real estate when it is time to hang up his helmet.

Look who is featured in this photo from the True North:
No. 7 is former Dartmouth standout Flo Orimolade '17, listed on the top line of the depth chart at defensive end for the Calgary entry in the Canadian Football League.
Unfortunately, that depth chart is probably a little premature. Orimolade, who missed the entire 2019 season with a quadriceps injury and seven games in 2021 with a high ankle sprain, is trying to make his way back from a torn Achilles suffered last September.
The Stamps open training camp on May 10 and have their first preseason game one month from today. They open the season June 5. From the story (LINK):
Here’s hoping Folarin Orimolade can return from a season-ending Achilles injury and be his normal, explosive self.

It's only about three minutes from our driveway to the trailhead where I park before heading up the mountain every day, and I should not have turned the radio for the short drive yesterday. You are not going to be happy with me when I tell you what I heard. It was this:
1-877-Kars for KidsK-A-R-S Kars for Kids1-877-Kars for KidsDoNATE your car today
I apologize if you can't unhear it now.
For what it's worth, the Kars4Kids website has a history of the jingle. From that posting (LINK):
Some love it, some profess to hate it and it’s become an art to rail creatively against it, but one thing is certain: all who hear the Kars for Kids jingle remember it.
One more thing. Mrs. BGA crushes me all the time for getting song lyrics wrong. Unfortunately, this is one jingle I can't forget.
