NFL Draft preview: Oregon cornerback Christian Gonzalez leads our list of top Pac-12 prospects

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:37:58 GMT

Christian Gonzalez’s football journey has taken him from a childhood in The Colony, Tex., to Boulder and Eugene for college and, this week, to Kansas City for the NFL Draft.That atypical route (two schools in the same conference) could bring an unprecedented conclusion: If draft projections are correct, Gonzalez will become the highest-drafted Pac-12 cornerback this century.Not since Arizona’s Chris McAlister was selected 10th by the Ravens in 1999 has the conference produced a top-10 pick at the highly-valued position.Over the past 23 drafts, eight cornerbacks have been selected in the first round, none higher than No. 11 (Washington State’s Marcus Trufant in 2003).Gonzalez, who spent two years at Colorado before transferring to Oregon for the 2022 season, is considered one of the top-two cornerbacks alongside Devon Witherspoon of Illinois.Several projections slot him in the No. 7 (Raiders) to No. 10 (Eagles) range and the object of a potential draft-night trade.

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:37:58 GMT

Local community colleges are recruiting a different type of senior: older adults.The Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council (SASCC) partnered with the West Valley-Mission Community College District to launch a community survey that will inform curriculum changes catered specifically to seniors. The survey is designed to help grow the district’s slowly declining community college population.Chancellor Brad Davis said enrollment is down at both West Valley College in Saratoga and Mission College in Santa Clara, and tapping into programming and curriculum for seniors can not only support the schools but engage more of the community.“Community colleges across California have seen almost a 10% decrease across the board in community college students,” Davis said. “Many of us are taking a fresh perspective on how we can serve the population we have.”Edsource reported that California community college enrollment reached a 30-year low in 2022.Davis said elementary, middle and high s...

2024 bid: Why did Biden announce now, and what changes?

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:37:58 GMT

By Will Weissert | Associated PressWASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has formally announced he’s seeking reelection. But he’s also still the president, with roughly 20 months left in his term regardless of whether he wins a second one on Election Day 2024.With Tuesday’s campaign video release, Biden is following through on months of saying he intended to seek reelection. Top Democrats have remained solidly unified behind the president, despite his low approval ratings and many Americans saying they’d rather not see the 80-year-old Biden try for four more years in the White House.But all that has meant Biden faced relatively little pressure to make his 2024 bid official. Here’s a look at why he announced now and how things will, and won’t, change for him going forward:WHY NOW?A formal reelection announcement means the president is now allowed to raise money directly for his campaign. It’s a change from his speeches at donor events benefiting t...

Review: ‘The Diplomat’ with Keri Russell captures the wit of ‘The West Wing’

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:37:58 GMT

“The Diplomat,” now available on Netflix, stars Keri Russell as a newly installed U.S. ambassador to the U.K. She may be great in a crisis zone, but she has no patience for dressing up or standing on ceremony. She’s a little like Sandra Bullock pre-makeover in “Miss Congeniality” — she’s not the obvious choice for the post but she’s sent to London anyway with instructions to nod solemnly and defuse a potential global conflict after a British aircraft carrier is bombed off the coast of Iran.Along for the ride is her husband (played by Rufus Sewell), a former ambassador himself whose jaunty self-assurance and constant back-channel maneuverings tend to have a way of gumming things up for his more serious-minded spouse. He can’t help inserting himself, despite her firm instructions that he not.To get a sense of the show’s tonal sensibility, it’s worth looking to creator Debora Cahn’s previous credits, namely “Homeland” and “The West Wing.” She takes the best from both and jettisons all ...
