SCOTT SLANT: Jeanty’s preseason hype is off the charts
(Tom Scott’s column will return Friday, August 29) Friday Special…August 22, 2024. The buzz for Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty is kind of overwhelming. And a lot of it has to do with what will happen after the season. We’re about eight months away from the NFL Draft, but here we go. One of the prognosticators worth following is Dane Brugler of The Athletic, and he has unveiled his first “NFL Draft 2025 Big Board,” his top 50 prospects. Jeanty is No. 25, the highest-ranked running back on the list, first-round territory. You’ve gotta love Brugler’s narrative: “I have watched tape on almost 1,000 draft-eligible prospects, but I can comfortably say Jeanty has been one of my favorites, because of the frequent magic acts he pulls with the football in his hands. The man hates to be tackled. Factor in his impressive receiving skills, and Jeanty has separated himself as my RB1 entering the 2024 season.”

Twin Falls Is Changing, But Is The Town Better or Worse?
Twin Falls is rapidly growing, and through the process, there have been many changes. There have been new neighborhoods developed, new shopping centers, some businesses have left town to make room for others, and traffic has increased through the years. While a town growing can be good, there can be an argument that Twin has gotten worse through all the changes. Those that are born and raised here, seem to not like the town growing and changing before their eyes, but for some younger generations, they enjoy having more options for shopping and eating. Are all the changes happening around Twin Falls making the town a better place to live or is it ruining the town and making it worse?
Stunning photos offer chilling look at Mount St. Helens eruption
