(This poll sponsored by FanDuel) FanDuel Sportsbook Last week, when. in an article announcing Fred Hoiberg’s contract extension, I joked in a kidding/not kidding way that we might have to do renegotiate Fred’s contract once more if and when the Huskers get that elusive first NCAA Tournament victory, and it should perhaps be of the […]

Liverpool’s 2025-26 season hasn’t gone to plan, and seeing head coach Arne Slot look for answers in another defeat has become all too common this season—as has a tendency by the manager to complain that opponents simply aren’t giving his side space to play this season. Which may be true, but it’s really nothing new. […]
Making his debut in our prospect rankings at #11, Dickerson and Tuesday’s entry Yorger Bautista were actually tied in our initial run through of our scoring system, though we opted to give the edge to Dickerson upon tie breaker. Last year’s fifth rounder, the former Indiana Hoosier is yet another high-upside play for the Seattle […]
Northwestern came into its matchup with Indiana believing they could beat the Hoosiers again. That belief was not empty — the ‘Cats had done it before. Six times in a row, to be exact, including in Bloomington this February. In that first meeting this season, Northwestern fell behind early before roaring back in the second […]
The hotel lobbies around Lucas Oil Stadium have a specific rhythm during combine week. Scouts huddle in corners with high-top chairs pulled too close. Agents pace near the coffee stations. Prospects walk through in matching league-issued drip, trying not to make eye contact with anyone holding a clipboard. I spent three days watching Northwestern’s three […]

Erling Haaland’s Rafael Pimienta has spoken out about the Manchester City striker’s future after Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font claimed he was trying to secure a buy option on the Norway star.

Ohio State’s tight end room has quietly become one of the deepest position groups on the roster. In recent seasons the Buckeyes have used a rotation of tight ends to balance blocking responsibilities, play-action threats, and situational versatility. That depth often means some players contribute without drawing much attention. One of those players is Nate […]
