Noah Clowney remains one of the youngest players in the NBA. Just turning 21 this summer, Clowney is younger than half the players taken in the 2025 NBA Draft. He also bulked up significantly this summer, his body only enhancing his potential, potential first seen when he burst on the scene at the end of […]

Current Chicago Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson played football at the University of North Carolina as a walk-on quarterback under offensive coordinator John Shoop, who also happened to be the Bears’ play-caller in 2001. Shoop, serving as offensive coordinator under then-head coach Dick Jauron when Chicago visited Cincinnati on Oct. 21, 2001, played a formative role in Johnson’s coaching development. Johnson has credited Shoop as one of his biggest mentors, and it seems fitting that we revis...
The Husker women are coming off two straight NCAA tournament appearances.

Some rookies start the NHL campaign red hot, like Montreal Canadiens’ Ivan Demidov, who is atop the rookie points leaderboard, but more often than not, it takes rookies time to settle in and adjust to the speed of the game at the NHL level. Having said that, the Edmonton Oilers have two rookies — a…
Embrace it, folks, even if the Sox aren’t playing. This is what it’s all about — all those daydreams, imaginary at-bats, all of it.
For 9-0, the #8 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets head up to Raleigh, North Carolina for what hopefully will not be their final trip to the state. NC State has sold out Carter-Finley Stadium for their homecoming game. Tech brings back some of their injured players from last week but still are without Ahmari Harvey. TV: ESPN2 […]
The other day, we asked you a question about the team’s payroll. It’s a target that is constantly shifting for unknown reasons, but Dave Dombrowski has gone on record as saying he gave something to John Middleton and it was approved. What that number was, we won’t know, but here is what you think that […]
For the first time in the Hansi Flick Era Barcelona will have to manage something they’ve unfortunately had to deal with plenty of times before: a lengthy injury absence for midfield superstar Pedri.

Earlier this week, several of us here at Tar Heel Blog mused that UNC running back Demon June needed to be getting more carries as the UNC offense continued to struggle against both good opponents and bad. He’s been the best back based on both the box scores and the eye test. June seemed to […]

11am CT on ABC. Boy did this week look a lot different on paper when schedules were first released. Time for the Gridiron Dore defense to be as stout as they were against Missourah (spits) and drop some Fallen Arches, Diego Pavia and the Boys (Dirty Mike can’t come) to get their offensive groove back, […]
This is a real good photo of the iconic Wrigley Field scoreboard in its early years. That scoreboard was completed in late 1937 and, as we learned in this 2020 sleuthing article, the clock on top was added sometime in mid-1941. So that’s the time frame we’re looking at. The scoreboard matchups are as follows. […]

We’re now almost one full month into the NHL season, and the standings are… not what we expected when the season began. Some young teams are exceeding expectations and some older teams (cough, Calgary, cough) are a hot mess. So it’s a good time to take another run at a 2026 NHL Mock Draft! As we get further into the season, my mock drafts will get into more detailed analysis. But we now have regular season stats to consider from players all over the world whose names could be called in th...
The New England Patriots have played two games versus NFC South teams so far, winning both by a combined score of 67-32.
