With the NFL draft being held this week, let’s rank the Las Vegas Raiders’ draft needs in tiers. We will exclude quarterback and since it’s widely expected Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza will be the No. 1 overall pick by the team. Let’s go: Early rounds: Wide receiver, defensive tackle, safety We’re talking rounds 2-3 here. […]
Indiana men’s basketball is set to have an almost entirely new roster ahead of the 2026-27 season with Trent Sisley being the only Hoosier who received minutes in 2025-26 to return. Darian DeVries, Ryan Carr and the rest of Indiana’s staff have been putting in work in the transfer portal to reload, with six commitments […]
With Liverpool first choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker currently sidelined with a hamstring injury that has kept him out of the last six matches, it has been an opportunity for Giorgi Mamardashvili to step into the starting role for the Reds. Against Everton, though, Mamardashvili himself suffered a knee injury. Today, reports out of Georgia have […]
Playoff hockey is back. On Monday evening, the Edmonton Oilers started their postseason, the final team to do so, taking down the Anaheim Ducks in the final two minutes of the game in a 4-3 victory. Let’s take a look at what went on in this one. The first 17 minutes of the opening frame…
For the third time in franchise history, and the first time in nearly a decade, the Oilers and Ducks will meet in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The first meeting came during Edmonton’s run to the Stanley Cup Final in 2006. After taking down the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Red Wings in the first round and the Sharks…
Barcelona are closing in on the league title and currently sit nine points clear of Real Madrid with just seven games left to play. There’s a scenario where Barcelona could be crowned champions before they face Madrid in the next Clasico at Camp Nou which has led to speculation Los Blancos don’t want to give […]
If the Los Angeles Rams want to leave day one of the draft with a quarterback to develop behind Matthew Stafford, rarely do we ever have such a clear consensus of the single option on the board: Alabama’s Ty Simpson. After Fernando Mendoza goes first, the Simpson watch begins at 2 and possibly lasts all […]

The long slog of the NFL Draft cycle is near an end. On Thursday night, we will finally put an end to all the speculation as Pittsburgh hosts one of the most televised and picked-over hiring events known to man. We’ve posted many a mock draft here on BTSC, but it’s been a few weeks […]
As we do every year, we take a look at the Bears’ first-round pick and the different positions the team needs, and what would make sense for the team to do. As a reminder, I will go through multiple positional cases for the 25th pick, making the case does not necessarily mean I believe this […]
As another former Mets’ skipper, Yogi Berra, once famously opined: “It’s getting late early”. Fair or not, the writing is on the wall for current Mets’ manager Carlos Mendoza: His time with the club is approaching its end. It felt somewhat inevitable with last year’s collapse, and it appears all but etched in stone as […]
The New York Yankees have obviously had many successful decades in their history, but despite winning more games than anyone in baseball in the ’80s, it ranks among their lowest-achieving. After losing the World Series in 1981, the Bombers wouldn’t play postseason baseball for well over a decade, not playing meaningful October ball again until […]
In 2023, I thought it would be fun to title my series previews using lyrics from Beastie Boys songs. It seemed like a fine idea until the Phillies found themselves seven games under .500 in early June. I decided that they no longer deserved me making the effort to find an appropriate song lyric. Once […]
Hello one, hello all, and happy Monday. Hope your weeks have gotten off to a great start. Lots to talk about in the Miami universe, so let’s get to it. 1) The Hurricanes’ spring game took place on Saturday, and, of course, as it was not televised, I didn’t get to watch it all unfold. […]
Washington helped fill their hole at the point guard spot today with the addition of San Francisco transfer Ryan Beasley. The 5’11 junior averaged career highs of 13.6 points and 4.0 assists per game this past season. https://x.com/i/status/2046261675767062870 Beasley has seen steady improvement throughout his college career. He was lightly recruited out of high school […]
The Huskers took a road trip to Minnesota looking for a sweep and woke up Monday with the first #1 ranking in their history. Monday morning opened with the On3/Softball America poll moving the Huskers up from #3 to #1 leapfrogging past last week’s #1 and #2 Oklahoma and Alabama. Oklahoma went 2-2 losing to […]
Travis Sanheim played an outstanding Game 1 leading to a suffocating victory over the rival Pittsburgh Penguins. They’ve laid out the blueprint to win the series as underdogs. The question now is if the veteran defenseman and the Flyers can play a near-perfect defensive game three more times. Sidney Crosby won’t go down without swinging, as Philadelphia is all too familiar with, and it starts on the back end with their number one defenseman. Getting physical with Crosby Sanheim doesn...
What a game and what a win for Manchester City. They are firmly in the driver’s seat now for the Premier League title. A win at lowly (make that very lowly) Burnley FC on Wednesday night puts them top of the table, on 3rd tie-breaker. A win gets them level on points with Arsenal, one […] The post Manchester City Team News at Burnley: Ruben Dias, Josko Gvardiol appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Less than 24 hours after securing its point guard in Elijah Crawford, Villanova has added his likely backup in Darryl Simmons II. The transfer from St. Bonaventure was third in the Atlantic-10 in scoring at 16.4 points per game. He led the conference with 2.8 threes per game, shooting them at a 42.5% clip. Simply […]
Great way to open the playoffs! I love all the coach and GM envy from the Sixers fans. Funny how in the beginning they felt Maxey better than Tatum and Brown but by the end, they think he's trash and want him traded. Even though there is no way they would have gotten Tatum, they will always torture themselves about taking Fultz over Tatum. The racist comments are really getting old. There is no basis for them. My favorites are in bold. ...
This week’s minor league roundup will only feature the numbers accumulated prior to the start of play on Monday. This was the 1st a week of full minor league play. According to FanGraphs (which factors in age and proximity to the big leagues), 22-year old backstop Caden Bodine the top hitter in the Rays system; […]
Rumors are one thing, medical news is a whole other ball game when it comes to the NFL draft. While the Cleveland Browns may or may not trade down in the 2026 NFL draft, the team clearly needs to leave this year’s selection process with more of a foundation and a hope for the future. […]
How about that comeback tonight from the Buffalo Sabres? That was a heckuva rally in the third period with three goals in a 4:34 span that moved Buffalo from a 2-0 deficit to a 3-2 lead in a game they won 4-3. News stories are already being written about it. Sportswriters are already hammering away at their keyboards... or so we believe. I say that because tonight's victory for Buffalo was fifteen years in the making, meaning that there should be a ton of passionate writers and bloggers talkin...
In a recent article for CBS Sports, College Football analyst Tom Fornelli set out to make a bold prediction about what 2026 has in store for every team in the Big Ten. The fact that he called them bold predictions was not false advertising, as he had several throughout the article, but had a particularly […]
