This off-season has been a dramatic one for the Ohio State football coaching staff with the Bill O’Brien era lasting only a few days and then the abrupt spring departure of longtime offensive assistant, Tony Alford. But the chaos continues with pass rush specialist, Brandon Jordan, leaving the Ohio State football program.
His tenure was longer than O’Brien’s but not too much longer as Jordan officially joined the program in February and was present for every spring practice. Expectations were high for him as some thought this could be the heir to the Larry Johnson defensive line throne, but life had...

Projected lottery pick Reed Sheppard emerged as one of the top performers in the strength and agility testing this week at the NBA draft combine in Chicago, Illinois.
Sheppard, who measured in at 6 feet, 1 3/4 inches without shoes, registered the 14th-fastest three-quarter sprint at 3.08 seconds. He finished eighth in the standing vertical jump (32 1/2 inches) and was tied for the highest max vertical jump (42 inches).
The 19-year-old occasionally flashed that athleticism throughout this past season at Kentucky, but he was mostly known as an elite shooter and defender. He reminded everyone watching, including himself, that he can...

Former Iowa head women’s basketball coach Lisa Bluder departs as the winningest coach in Big Ten and Hawkeye history.
Under Bluder’s watch, the Hawkeyes compiled a 528-254 (262-145 Big Ten) record. Iowa advanced to each of the past two Final Fours and national championship games.
The Hawkeyes also made five Sweet 16 trips, three Elite Eights and 18 NCAA Tournaments overall with Bluder directing the program.
Bluder was a three-time Big Ten Coach of the Year recipient and was named the 2019 Naismith Coach of the Year.
Some might naturally think that Bluder’s biggest regret was not capturing either of the past two national championship...

A Jacksonville man who spent more than 44 years in prison is suing over his wrongful arrest. Willie Williams was convicted of attempted murder in a store robbery in 1975 and sentenced to life in prison, a crime he always insisted he did not commit. He was paroled in 2020 at age 79.

Klay Thompson is one of the best sharpshooters of his generation. The Golden State Warriors wing has helped his team win four championships.
However, at this late stage of his career, the veteran shooter is starting to see his role within the rotation change, and he could move into a full-time bench role in the near future. 
Nevertheless, Thompson’s scoring ability is well respected. During a recent interview with Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson on the “Scoop B Radio” podcast, former NBA champion Ray Allen admitted he sees similarities between his game and that of Thompson’s.
“I’ve always been impressed with him,” Allen said....

The Denver Nuggets looked completely dead in the water just over a week ago. An embarrassing Game 2 beatdown at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves had folks like Charles Barkley proclaiming Denver would get swept.
Well, heading into Tuesday night’s pivotal Game 5, the series is now tied at 2-2 after Denver took both road games in Minneapolis. And it sure seems like a diss track that Nuggets head coach Michael Malone pieced together really resonated with his team. Any time you feature prominent NBA media personalities doubting your players in public, it’s bound to strike a chord.
Upon realizing that...

I first encountered a rat one evening in a Target parking lot. When my daughter told me it was a rat, I went straight to the car and she went to get a photo of it since she's never seen one before. I assure you it wasn't little.

The Alabama Crimson Tide men’s basketball coaching staff recently offered 2025 power forward Niko Bundalo. Bundalo plays for Western Reserve Academy in Hudson, Ohio. He is listed at 6-foot-11 and 195 pounds.
He is ranked as the No. 1 prospect in the state of Ohio. Thus far, Bundalo has fielded offers from programs like Cincinnati, Iowa Hawkeyes, Michigan State Spartans, and Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
If Bundalo were to commit to the Crimson Tide, he would likely replace Alabama power forward Grant Nelson. Following the conclusion of the 2024-2025 season, Nelson will lose his college eligibility. This means he has to turn pro. Bundalo would be a viable option for Alabama to pursue following Nelson’s departure.

After spending five seasons in Pennsylvania playing for the Villanova Wildcats, offensive tackle Wyatt Hummel decided to transfer to where he always knew he would end up: Colorado.
Hummel, an experienced lineman who excelled as a pass-blocker during his time with the Wildcats, announced in late April his intentions to join the Buffaloes. He’s known for his versatility, having played all five positions on the offensive line over 1,000 snaps and 30 career games at Villanova.
Hummel could compete for a starting position at Colorado, likely at one of the tackle spots or center. But he will be a valuable piece that...

A beloved Wolverine is with the program no longer. Last month, former Michigan football quarterback Denard Robinson was arrested for operating a vehicle while intoxicated — the second coach with the program to have done so this offseason. Robinson was quickly suspended pending an investigation. The investigation appears to be ongoing, but Robinson was dismissed from the program, according to MLive’s Aaron McMann.
