How gratitude shaped Paul McNeil's return to NC State, approach to the season
Reporters clamored around Paul McNeil’s table at ACC Tipoff in Charlotte, where they held recording devices, cameras and lights. Everyone wanted to talk to the guard who stayed home — twice. The junior returned to the Wolfpack for a third season, despite testing the waters in the transfer portal. He also returned to the Wolfpack, where he will play for a third coach in three seasons. Staying after Kevin Keatts’ firing was admirable. Doing it again after Will Wade’s lone season — Wade wanted McNeil to join him at LSU — started a larger conversation about loyalty and legacy.

Which Oregon commits, 2028 recruits are on campus for game vs. Nebraska?
The Oregon Ducks are welcoming back several talented recruits and commits once again this weekend against the Nebraska Cornhuskers . They will hope to give the incoming talent a better show than last week's loss to UCLA. There are expected to be at least 15 recruits on the sideline for Saturday's game, with the potential for the list to expand. Among those visitors are seven committed players in the 2027 class, highlighted by five-star edge rusher Rashad Streets and four-star athlete Tae Walden Jr. Streets makes the trip from Raleigh, North Carolina, and is one of Oregon's top commits.
