AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

College Sports Shake-Up: The Big 12 has unanimously banned professional athletes from returning to college in all sports, following similar moves by the Big Ten and SEC—an effort aimed at the chaos sparked by NFL-to-NCAA eligibility fights involving players tied to LSU. Local Sports Spotlight: The Saints’ tight end plan is getting a boost as Juwan Johnson keeps racking up targets and rookie Oscar Delp’s hamstring update sounds encouraging. Tech & Youth Safety: Meta agreed to a $17.1B multistate settlement over teen social media addiction, with Louisiana set to receive $180M plus new Facebook/Instagram safety limits. Arts & Culture: JAMNOLA added a new Black Masking Indian exhibit, rotating in fresh suits and an interactive Adinkra-inspired installation. Food & Books: New Orleans-based “Mississippi Vegan” chef Timothy Pakron is set to release “Garden Variety,” built around his edible backyard and seasonal plant-based Southern cooking. Community & Music: The Diocese of Baton Rouge is auditioning for a new Diocesan Children’s Choir, and the USAF Band of the West will perform multiple free shows across Louisiana in September. Local Business Watch: French Market shop tenants say they’re being pushed out as lease fights continue.
