UBS starts coverage on gov service providers stock amid spending uncertaintyKelly: Why has the Dolphins run game clammed up lately? | Opinion

When former Daniel Boone quarterback Ben Fox became the Maryville College head coach in January 2021, he said quality players from Northeast Tennessee could be instrumental in helping take the Scots to the top. He was correct. Maryville, which opens the NCAA Division III playoffs at Berry College on Saturday in Rome, Ga., wrapped up its best regular season since 1978 on Saturday. The Scots (9-1) won the USA South Conference championship, and Northeast Tennessee fingerprints are all over that trophy. Junior quarterback Bryson Rollins, who led Elizabethton to two state titles and a state runner-up in high school, was named the league’s offensive player of the year on Wednesday. One of Rollins’ targets is 6-foot-4, 215-pound junior Amare Redd, who played at Science Hill. And senior linebacker Devon White has been starting for three years. “That group means a lot to me because I feel like they are me,” said Fox, who was the valedictorian at Daniel Boone in 2005. “Those three all used to spend summers down at Carver (Rec) — just like I did. I think it’s really awesome that they’ve had the success they’ve had. I’ve been really blessed to be their coach. “On Senior Day on Saturday, Devon told me thank you for trusting him, and I told him, ‘Thank you for believing in me,’ because he believed in me when we didn’t have a lot to believe in. He’s been really good.” Rollins and White each noted a discouraging lack of recruiting interest until Fox was hired at Maryville. White missed the vast majority of his senior season at Boone due to a gruesome leg injury. “Coach Fox started his recruiting class and I was one of the first ones he said he’d talked to, which was great,” White said. “I put all of my cards in with Ben Fox, and I think it’s amazing how it’s worked out.” Indeed, Fox and White each grew up on Shadden Road in Gray. “And it’s a long way from Shadden Road to down here, man,” Fox said. Rollins’ lack of interest coming out of high school was more perplexing. After all, he was a three-time All-State player while piling up in excess of 10,000 yards, 84 touchdown passes and 67 rushing TDs. “Coach Fox really was one of the only people that gave me a chance at playing at the college level,” Rollins said. “So I really respect him for that.” Word of mouth helped Fox land Redd, who began his career at Charleston University. “When I chose to come to Maryville I wasn’t sure if I was making a mistake or it was a good decision,” said Redd, the grandson of former Buffalo Bills running back Van Williams. “I had already known some of the East Tennessee guys, but we weren’t close. Now we hang out with each other at school and when we go back home. Playing with these guys for the last two years has been fun, and overall, coming to Maryville was a good decision.” Fox’s coaching ability generates the same level of respect his recruiting efforts did. “Coach Fox brings his best every day,” Rollins said. “He’s going to give you a hundred percent every single day. He’s gonna try his best to put you in the best situation possible. Great guy, great coach.” When he jokes about how much smarter having Rollins has made him, Fox reminds you of Elizabethton coach Shawn Witten. “I know I wanted him really bad,” Fox said. “I know that I’m really glad he believed in me and I hope he’s really glad that I believed in him. It’s been a lot of fun coaching him. “I’m not always the easiest to play for, and he’s handled it with a lot of toughness and a lot of grit. And he’s a supreme competitor, he really is. He’s as competitive a joker as I’ve ever seen. He’s a dang winner.” Rollins doesn’t wear a cape, although Fox’s daughter Kinsley couldn’t be blamed for wondering. “My daughter asked me Sunday, ‘Can we win Saturday,’” Fox said. “She hasn’t asked me that in a long time. We’ve won a lot. “And I said, ‘Yeah.’ She said, ‘Why?’ I said, ‘Because we’ve got Superman. We’ve got number 10. We’ve always got a chance.’” The Northeast Tennessee flavor has sweetened success. “The great thing is, not only did Coach Fox trust me, he trusted a lot of other Northeast Tennessee dudes,” White said. “He’s a great recruiter. His personality lights up the room. He always has amazing energy, which attracts a lot of guys. “It attracted Bryson Rollins here. It attracted Amare Redd to transfer here. And those guys have really been pivotal in what we’re doing and our success as a recruiting class that came after me. Grabbing those guys is what really put us over the top.” Redd has five touchdown receptions. White has 46 tackles. The Maryville roster includes starting offensive lineman Tanner Dyer (South Greene), receiver Teddy Orton (Elizabethton), Gaven Aldridge (Science Hill), Dewey Whaley (Elizabethton), Jacob Andes (Happy Valley), Eli Presswood (Cloudland), Zach Carroll (West Greene), Wesley Erwin (Elizabethton) Phillip Page (Daniel Boone), Josh White (Tri-Cities Christian) and Bryant Sybert (David Crockett). Defensive coordinator Scott Brumett started at East Tennessee State when it defeated top-ranked Georgia Southern in 2001. “Playing with Amare and Devon and Phillip, Wes, Teddy, Luke Whaley — it’s been a lot of fun,” Rollins said. “When you think about guys who you can trust on campus and you know they’re gonna have your back whenever and all that — you can just go to those guys anytime. It’s crazy because I never thought I’d be hanging out with Daniel Boone kids — not in any bad way, but I’m saying just going to the same college. “Playing with the East Tennessee boys, yeah, it’s been a lot of fun. It’s hard to describe. ... Me, Devon, Phillip, Amare – we hang out literally every day. We eat lunch with each other every day.” Friendship is nourishing. White has relished the opportunity to share a locker room with former opponents. “Honestly, it’s been great to go from rivals in Northeast Tennessee, watching these dudes do it against me under Friday night lights,” White said, “to actually being on the flip-side and seeing Amare head-top everybody and seeing Bryson scramble around in the pocket for 15 yards and then throw a beautiful ball to one of our receivers. It’s just been awesome to be on the right side of it and for us to put those pieces together. “And the good thing about the heavy Northeast (Tennessee) recruitment up here is in the summer we had a lot of high school coaches willing to lend us their field so we could put work in. Coach Witten opened up Citizens Bank (Stadium) a couple of times for us to put work in. Coach (Jeremy) Jenkins opened up Nathan Hale (Stadium) a couple of times in the summer so we could get a quick workout in. Those coaches believe in the players they’ve coached and want us to keep developing. It’s really what’s brought us here to the top for this conference championship we were able to win.” Granted, a championship is a championship. But the players from Northeast Tennessee, many of whom were seemingly invisible otherwise, have found it more gratifying to triumph with neighbors. “I like to call us the Northeast All-Star team,” White said, “the best of the best coming out of Northeast Tennessee and getting down to Maryville College and winning a championship. And I think that’s only going to continue. We’ve got guys like Gaven Aldridge, who was just recruited out of Science Hill. He’ll make a big splash next year barring injury.” Maryville has never won a playoff game. Beating Berry would appear to be doable. The Scots and Berry scrimmaged each other the past two seasons after playing in the 2022 season opener. A 50-yard TD pass in the final minute lifted Berry to a 31-24 victory. “It was Bryson’s first start, it was Devon’s first start (at linebacker),” Fox said. “Berry’s good. They’ve got an All-American free safety that’s a really good player. They’ve got an All-American tailback. But I think that our defense will be as good a unit as they’ve seen all year and I think we’ll be able to get after ‘em. “And our offense has some really good players. Bryson played great the first time he played against ‘em. He ran around and did his thing.” Rollins exudes a quiet confidence. He seemingly willed Elizabethton to a 13-7 victory at Greeneville in the playoffs in 2021 after the Greene Devils had won 42-12 at Elizabethton during the regular season. In the rematch, Rollins rushed 38 times for 200 yards against what most would’ve told you was the superior squad. Rollins is eager to enhance what’s already been a historic season for the Scots while continuing to augment his prolific career. “I can’t wait for Berry this week,” he said. “We’ve got a good game plan and we’ve just gotta go down there and execute. It should be a lot of fun.” Maryville won some games prior to this season while on Rollins’ back. “He did it for us last year,” Fox said. “He’s not had to do it yet this year, but the time might be coming where he’s gonna have to do it.”

As U.S. president-elect Donald Trump threatens Canada with major tariffs, sounding alarms over the number of people and drugs illegally crossing into America, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and some premiers say they agree that more could be done. Trump is threatening to implement the 25 per cent tariff on day one of his presidency, until both Canada and Mexico address the "long simmering problem" of drugs and illegal immigrants crossing into the United States. "We hereby demand that they use this power, and until such time that they do, it is time for them to pay a very big price!" Trump wrote on the social media platform Truth Social Monday night. Trump also wrote: "This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!" In a press conference in response on Tuesday, Poilievre called on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to "put partisanship aside" and "fully reverse his liberalization of drugs" to prevent more overdoses. "I don't want to stop drug overdoses to please Donald Trump, I want to stop drug overdoses so that there's not one more mother with her face buried in a pillow sobbing that she just lost her kid after 47,000 other Canadians have died," Poilievre said. Ontario Premier Doug Ford also responded to Trump's tariff threat, telling reporters on Tuesday that "Canada is no Mexico," and adding that he "found his comments unfair." "One ounce of any illegal drug is one ounce too many going back and forth across the border," Ford said, before pointing the finger at the issue of drugs being moved from Mexico and through the United States before being brought into Canada. "The threat is serious," he said. "We need to do better on our borders." Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said in an interview on CTV News Channel's Power Play that Canada needs to work on addressing several of Trump's concerns, from the border, to worries China is using Mexico as a backdoor into North American free trade, to defence spending. "But I would say that the best thing that we could do would be to start hiring a border patrol so that we can guarantee that we aren't having a free flow of drugs and illegal migrants across the border," Smith told host Vassy Kapelos. "We've got to address the issues that have been identified as pressure points and alleviate them," she added. "We have a common interest in trying to get a handle on our border issues, and a common interest in trying to get a handle on the organized crime that is bringing fentanyl onto our streets," Smith said. Responding to Trump's threat, and the deluge of reaction, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc told reporters Tuesday that work is done "daily," between U.S. and Canadian law enforcement, to address illegal border activity. "Intelligence information is shared between both countries, including in the fight against fentanyl and the toxic drug crisis that is affecting Canadians and Canadian families as it is the United States," LeBlanc said. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said that the Canadian government knew the border was going to be a top issue with the incoming administration and they've been working behind the scenes to prepare. Trudeau told reporters on his way into Tuesday's cabinet meeting that he spoke with Trump Monday night but didn't specify what the two discussed beyond "some of the challenges that we can work on together." A senior government source told CTV News, meanwhile, that the two discussed the fentanyl problem in both countries during their first phone call after election day, earlier this month. A U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer canine unit searches vehicles at the Peace Bridge Port of Entry in Buffalo, N.Y., May 23, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Cole Burston What does the data say? Statistics from America's own border agency, however, show it's seizing only a fraction of the illegal drugs at the Canadian border compared to Mexico's. According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the agency has seized 43 lbs of fentanyl at the Canada-U.S. border in the last year, excluding October, compared to 21,148 lbs at its southern border with Mexico in the same time period. In 2023 and 2022, CBP states it seized two lbs and 14 lbs of fentanyl, respectively, at the Canadian border. At the border with Mexico, the agency seized more than 26,700 lbs of fentanyl, and more than 14,100 lbs, in 2023 and 2022, respectively. And, data obtained by the Washington, D.C.-based public policy research Cato Institute — citing information obtained through a freedom of information request — states 80 per cent of the individuals caught with fentanyl during border crossings at ports of entry from 2019 to 2024 were U.S. citizens. The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has publicly available data for the amount of illegal goods seized at the border, but does not break down the country of origin for those illegal goods. The statistics related to illegal drug seizures at the U.S. border with Canada compared to Mexico's is in line with those related to encounters between CBP and individuals illegally attempting to cross the border. According to CBP, in the last year, but excluding October, there were 23,721 encounters at the Canada-U.S. border. At the U.S. southern border with Mexico, there were more than 1.5 million. LeBlanc said Tuesday the Canadian government is working with law enforcement to provide additional resources, whether they're required to staunch the flow of illegal drugs, human crossings, or both. "In recent days, I've worked with the RCMP and Border Services about continuing to support them in terms of acquiring new technologies, drones, helicopters, additional human resources necessary in the case of surge requirements," LeBlanc said Tuesday. "All of this work is being done and has been done for many months." He also said he doesn't think it's "about thickening or thinning the border," but rather working with American officials to "have an efficient, effective border that's secure for both countries." "And it's not an either-or choice," he said.

NEW YORK — A familiar face will help the Jets with their general manager and coaching search. Gang Green has hired The 33rd Team, founded by former Jets General manager and senior vice president of football operations Mike Tannenbaum, to help them find candidates for their general manager and coaching vacancies, according to sources. Former Vikings general manager Rick Spielman will also help Tannenbaum identify candidates for the roles. The 33rd Team will also provide data analysis and experience to assist the Jets in seeking new leadership. The Jets fired both general manager Joe Douglas and coach Robert Saleh during this season. Owner Woody Johnson fired Saleh on Oct. 8 and Douglas on Nov. 19. Johnson will supervise both the general manager and coaching searches but will receive help from The 33rd Team and others within the Jets organization, who will also be involved in the search. Spielman was an advisor to the Commanders in 2024 in their search for the team’s new head coach and general manager. Washington ultimately hired Adam Peters as its general manager and Dan Quinn as coach. The Commanders currently have a 7-5 record and have been one of the surprise teams in the league this season. Tannebaum started with the Jets organization in 1997 as a director of player contracts. He became the team’s director of pro player development in 2000 and later the general manager and director of pro personnel from 2006-12. Tannebaum was also the last general manager to have significant success for the Jets. He was the architect of the Jets teams that went to back-to-back AFC Championships in 2009 and 2010. Since then, the Jets have missed the playoffs for 13 consecutive seasons, the longest playoff drought in North American sports. Under Tannebaum, the Jets drafted cornerstone players such as Pro Football Hall of Famer Darrelle Revis, D’Brickashaw Ferguson, and Nick Mangold. He also hired former Jets coaches Eric Mangini and Rex Ryan during his tenure as general manager. In 2012, Tannebaum was fired following the Jets 6-10 record. In 2015, Tannebaum became the Dolphins executive vice president of football operations until owner Stephen Ross fired him in 2018. The Jets previous three general managers following Tannenbaum’s departure, John Idzik Jr., Mike Maccagnan, and Douglas, all failed to make the playoffs during their tenures. Maccagnan is the only Jets general manager to record a winning record (2015) since 2010. Gang Green is officially in rebuild mode after Johnson fired Saleh and Douglas. The team entered the 2024 season with not just playoff expectations but Super Bowl aspirations. But with a 3-8 record with six games, the Jets are poised to miss the playoffs for the 14th straight season. After beginning the season 2-3, Johnson fired Saleh and made defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich interim coach. Johnson felt like the Jets were underachieving after calling the roster the best during his 25 seasons as owner. Since Johnson fired Saleh, the Jets are 1-5 and are tied for last place in the AFC East with the Patriots. During the bye last week, Johnson fired Douglas so the team could begin their general manager and coaching search. Douglas was in the final year of his contract, which he signed in 2019. The Jets are one of two coaching vacancies currently open. The Saints fired coach Dennis Allen on Nov. 4 following a 2-7 start. The Jets can currently interview any potential candidate who does not work for an NFL team. If they want to interview candidates currently working for any of the 32 teams, the Jets will have to wait until Jan. 5, the conclusion of the regular season. ©2024 New York Daily News.

Mohamed Salah extended Liverpool’s perfect Champions League record as they won 1-0 at Girona to claim a sixth victory out of six. Salah nervelessly converted a 63rd-minute penalty, his 16th goal of the season, after French referee Benoit Bastien had been advised to take another look at Donny van de Beek’s clumsy challenge on Luis Diaz. In the process, he became just the 11th man to score 50 goals in the competition – Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe later also joined that exclusive club – on a night when victory at the Estadi Montilivi meant the six-time European champions will enter 2025 sitting proudly at the top of the table. ⭐️ A ???? STAR PERFORMANCE ⭐️ #FCBayern #MiaSanMia | #SHAFCB #UCL pic.twitter.com/WELoxugaGn — FC Bayern (@FCBayernEN) December 10, 2024 England international Michael Olise produced a moment of magic to set the seal on Bayern Munich’s demolition of Shakhtar Donetsk and ease them towards the knockout stage. Olise’s brilliant stoppage-time run and finish capped a 5-1 victory for the Germans, in which he had early scored from the penalty spot, in Gelsenkirchen. Kevin’s fifth-minute strike had given the home side the perfect start, but Konrad Laimer levelled before Thomas Muller’s 55th goal in the competition sent the visitors in ahead at the break and set the stage for Olise’s double either side of Jamal Musiala’s strike. Jude Bellingham breathed life back into Real Madrid’s campaign as they held off Atalanta to earn a 3-2 victory in Bergamo. ? @BellinghamJude ? #UCL pic.twitter.com/jTynK04akR — Real Madrid C.F. ???? (@realmadriden) December 10, 2024 After Charles De Ketelaere had cancelled out Mbappe’s opener from the penalty spot, second-half goals from Vinicius Junior and Bellingham in quick succession put the visitors in charge, although Ademola Lookman’s 65th-minute strike meant the contest was alive until the final whistle. Ross Barkley took Aston Villa a step closer to automatic qualification with a late winner against RB Leipzig in Germany. Villa had led twice through John McGinn and Jhon Duran, but equalisers from Lois Openda and Christoph Baumgartner kept Leipzig in it until substitute Barkley struck five minutes from time to snatch a 3-2 victory. Goals from Goncalo Ramos, Nuno Mendes and substitute Desire Doue – his first in the competition – handed French champions Paris St Germain a much-needed three points after a comfortable 3-0 win at RB Salzburg.

Mukiele struck in the 90th minute to inflict a first defeat across six games in this season’s competition on the Serie A champions – it was also the first goal they have conceded. Casper Nielsen came off the bench to fire Club Brugge to a 2-1 home victory over Sporting Lisbon after Eduardo Quaresma’s own goal had handed them a way back into the game following Geny Catamo’s early opener. Julien Le Cardinal’s first-half strike was enough to handed Brest a 1-0 victory over Eredivisie leaders PSV Eindhoven, while Kasper Schmeichel’s save from Marko Pjaca’s close-range 80th-minute header ensured Celtic returned from Dinamo Zagreb with a 0-0 draw.‘Unbelievable’ Odegaard transforms Arsenal and gets Saka smiling again
