Miss something that happened on Dr. Saturday’s social media presence? Well, we’ve got your roundup right here. Don’t let this happen again. Always be in the know by following Dr. Saturday on Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr.

Miami (Ohio) unveiled new uniforms last month. On Wednesday, the program showed off its sweet helmets that will go with the new uniform combinations.

Take a look:

Another Group of 5 school, Tulane, also looks to have a new helmet. This one is a beauty with the old school “angry wave” logo.

The helmet above does not seem to be official in any capacity. However, the school showed off a similar helmet – a white one with the angry wave logo – earlier in the summer. So this one could make its debut in 2016 as well.

After a year at Auburn, defensive back Tim Irvin is headed to East Carolina. Irvin, the nephew of Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin, was a four-star recruit in 2015 and played in 10 games for the Tigers last season. He had 18 tackles.

For the first time since the firing of Art Briles, Baylor landed a verbal commitment to its 2017 class. Noan Daniels, a two-star defensive back from League City, Texas, chose Baylor over offers from Arkansas, Houston, Indiana, Texas Tech, Utah and many others.

ESPN president John Skipper will be in attendance at ACC Media Days on Thursday. Hmm… What could that be about?

Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville doesn’t seem too sure how Pokemon Go works. Where’s your smart phone, Tommy?

This is kind of strange. Baylor acting head coach Jim Grobe has said a few times that he regrets not taking the head-coaching job at Nebraska when it was offered to him in 2007. One problem: Tom Osborne says he never offered Grobe the job.

Michigan’s Jumpman gear is coming. Jim Harbaugh will apparently wear a blue version of this shirt that he designed himself. You won’t see a swoosh on UM’s gear, either.

Arizona redshirt freshman lineman Keenan Walker was arrested earlier this month.
