The NCAA has decided to expand the tournament, and to quote Charlton Heston from the Planet of the Apes when he realized he was back on Earth: “We finally really did it. You maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you…damn you all to hell!” In case you weren’t sure, we don’t think it’s a […]
Outgoing AFC Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola and possibly outgoing Fulham manager Marco Silva appear to be the two primary candidates in the (supposedly) early stages of Chelsea’s search for our next manager head coach, but a report yesterday (Tuesday) from The Telegraph has also lumped in currently unemployed Xabi Alonso into that preferred group for […]

The Ravens entered the draft with multiple needs to address, but perhaps none more glaring than the interior offensive line. Selecting Penn State guard Olaivavega Ioane with the No. 14 overall pick after previously signing veteran guard John Simpson in free agency put the interior in a much stronger position on paper, but one glaring […]
After recent news broke that a British heavyweight fight between Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury had finally been signed, it was a bit curious that the announcement came without a specific date or venue. In an interview with Fight Hype, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn confirms that they have actually put pen to paper for a […]

It comes with the territory of being the No. 1 overall pick of the 2026 NFL draft, but new Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Fernando Mendoza has been unfairly scrutinized as a “one-year wonder”. Sure, the Heisman trophy winner’s best season was this past one at Indiana. But make no mistake about it, he was a […]
The Green Bay Packers aren’t huge spenders in undrafted free agency (yes, guaranteed money is a major factor for signing top players), but they do pick their spots at times. Whatever they’re doing is right, though, as the team has had an undrafted rookie make the team for 21 consecutive years. Who will it be […]

The Miami Dolphins may need to look at Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby amid his gambling scandal that could impact his eligibility.
A late-season surge is developing into something spectacular for a team that has always been capable. Last week, I positioned the series win against Purdue as a do-or-die moment for Northwestern’s season, a stretch that would reveal how much the team wanted it. By the end of the weekend, I think it’s safe to say […]
Following the NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have a new look to their linebacker room. Early in free agency, Dre Greenlaw returned to San Francisco to pair back up with Fred Warner. Dee Winters started next to Warner last season and performed admirably before a late-season decline, which was partly due to an injury. […]
Welcome back to the next installment of our preview of the position groups for the Huskies. This time we will be focusing on the defensive secondary, which features a few experienced returning pieces, but mostly some young promising talent!

On Thursday, the Kansas City Chiefs drafted Clemson defensive tackle Peter Woods with pick No. 29 in the first round.

I was in the Northwest Stadium tunnels when Jayden Daniels sent a high volley skyward towards the end zone, furiously typing what I assumed would be a Bears victory recap for the Chicago media outlet I worked for.

The grass at Kinnick has officially soaked up the last spring rep of 2026. Iowa wrapped its 15-practice spring slate with an open session for fans on Saturday morning, and the headlines coming out of it are the ones we expected: the quarterback battle is going to August. A sophomore receiver might be the biggest […]

Cornerbacks coach and former interim head coach Terry Smith went on Pittsburgh radio station 93.7 The Fan on Monday to discuss a myriad of topics, including Drew Allar getting selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round. Smith made a bit of waves with his comments, saying the Penn State system wasn’t necessarily a […]
Titans Draft RB Nicholas Singleton, Adding Competition in Spears’ Contract Year The Tennessee Titans waited until the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft to address the running back position, but the selection of Penn State’s Nicholas Singleton still carries consequences for the backfield’s established order, particularly for Tyjae Spears.
