Friday Five: Pac-12 Non-Conference Opportunities

In just a few months the Mountain West is set to split with the “departing five” leaving to create the reformed Pac-12. The Mountain West has added the likes of North Dakota State, Northern Illinois, and UTEP to fill the gaps.  We at the Mountain West Connection intend to cover both conferences going forward. “Friday […]

Doncaster Rovers vs Reading: 2025/26 Match Preview

Reading suffered yet another late goal against Lincoln City on Monday. The two games over Easter should have been four points for the Royals, cementing their playoff hopes, but just one point being taken due to two 96th-minute goals is a massive sting in the teeth and ends the playoff run, in my opinion. However, […]

Hockey Boss Candidate Gets Second Interview with Maple Leafs

The Toronto Maple Leafs, if all goes as it should, will be hiring both a new general manager and a president of hockey operations to oversee the whole on-ice side of the operation. To that end, for the more senior role, MLSE President & CEO Keith Pelley seems to be focused on Mike Gillis, who we can reasonably call the frontrunner for the hockey boss gig at this point. He's set for a second interview.  The Leafs are reportedly very interested in Mike Gillis, who is set for a second meetin...

2026 NFL mock draft: Pittsburgh Steelers select Peter Woods

The Pittsburgh Steelers are going through a rare transition. Gone is Mike Tomlin, in is Mike McCarthy.

Two more to go. The Brooklyn Nets wrapped up the home schedule on Thursday night against the Indiana Pacers. They lost by a bunch but helped their draft cause. That’s a win.
