Intel has dropped a hint on why Dusty May has left Michigan​

According to Jeff Goodman, Michigan will be getting $5 million in buyout money due to May leaving before his contract is up. Goodman also dropped two tidbits on what May has decided to leave after two seasons where he went 64-13.

The state of college basketball and not knowing what it will look like in five years, and the opportunity to coach Mavericks PF Cooper Flagg are the two reasons May is leaving Michigan, according to Goodman.

2029 CA WR Austin Miller is a Buckeye!!!

Height: 6'5"
Weight: 200 lbs
As a freshman at Bellflower High School, Miller caught 35 passes for 609 yards and eight touchdowns while adding 883 rushing yards and 13 scores on the ground. He also made an impact as a defensive back, recording 36 tackles, eight tackles for loss, four sacks, four pass breakups, one forced fumble and a fumble return touchdown.
He’ll be a top recruit in the 2029 class regardless of position


FWIW, I found this: "Austin Miller, the highly touted 6-foot-5, 200-pound class of 2029 athlete and Ohio State recruit from Bellflower, CA, has been clocked with a 4.50 to 4.54 second 40-yard dash. Despite his imposing size, his track speed and explosiveness also translate into a quick 4.29-second shuttle and an 11.47-second 100-meter dash."

Just sayin': The young man is probably only 15 years old. I will be interesting to see how much he grows between now and 2029.

Headlines You Don't See Every Day (outside of Florida)


Doesn’t say in the story, but this dude has got to have some kinda UGa affiliation, am I right?

2026 World Cup (Official Thread)

So as he was walking off the field the other day, Mbappe had scored a pair of WC goals to go 1 ahead of Messi with 14. Messi was 3 behind Klose’s career record.

As he heads back out for his next game, he’s now 4 behind Messi.

Mbappe is 27 years old (this is his 3rd World Cup) and Messi is 38 years old (this is his 6th World Cup). In about 12 more years when all is said and done, Mbappe will have the World Cup goal record and it's not likely that anybody else will be all that close to it.

2027 AL DL Karlos May (Verbal Offer)

Used to be said that pulling a DT from the South/SEC territory was harder than having a root canal without anesthesia (or somesuch). Yet the Buckeyes have done so each of the last two years. I call it a shift from SEC to B10 supremacy. Keep it up.
I think the shift in top southern HSDL coming north over the last 5yrs coincided with camps traveling more, coaches moving around more which brought targets to new schools, the transfer portal opening eyes to more tangible options, and finally NIL deals being able to match or exceed in the B1G when money is now above board.

QB1 Julian Sayin (All B1G, B1G Frosh of Year, All American, National Frosh of Year, National Champion)

He should be completing 91% of his passes this season - averaging 32 yards per completion. The only incompletions should be batted passes; and the only player batting the batted passes is Jeremiah Smith because he changed his mind during the play or something.

Neal Shipley (PGA Golf Pro)

It’s pretty tough to keep a card these days. He seems to be getting adjusted though, and I think he’ll start getting some higher finishes soon.
Just sayin':

1. You need to finish in the top 100 of the Fed Ex Cup points list at the end of the season to automatically retain full PGA Tour playing privileges for the following year.

A clean breakdown of PGA Tour card retention levels:
  • Top 100 (Fully Exempt): Players finishing in the top 100 receive guaranteed entry into all full-field PGA Tour events.
  • Nos. 101–150 (Conditional Status): Players who finish outside the top 100 but inside the top 150 receive conditional status. They are ranked into priority categories that determine which full-field events they are eligible to enter as alternates or via tournament reshuffles.
  • Beyond No. 150: Players finishing between 151 and 200 receive lower conditional status, while finishing outside the top 200 results in a complete loss of status, requiring players to regain their card through avenues like PGA Tour Q-School.
2. Currently Neal Shipley sits at #179 with 40 points on the Fed Ex Cup ranking. On the $$$ side he did earn $44,938 this weekend at the US Open bringing his seasons earnings to $144,633.

Ohio State Men's Golf (Official Thread)

Here's hoping that Neil earns enough money/points to maintain his PGA playing card. Never forget that the US Open is designed to punish players that don't hit perfect shots. Anyway, we always talk about the college kids being drafted, and starting as rookies, which are few and far between, as the pro game and the college games are miles apart. Same with college/amateur golf. The pro game is many miles apart from the college game, as seen from the Open, many of the 'name' pros didn't make the cut. If you follow golf, you might have noted that several/many of the four-round scores are in the -20 to -25 (under par), but the Open was significantly lower (-7ish). Bit of a ramble, but for non-fanatic golfers, might not be a known fact.
I think he also has the challenge of seeing a lot of courses he has never played in competition. He will be more prepared for them next year.

Just sayin'; If he doesn't start playing better this year and he has to some extent.
Just sayin': His game must be picking up. After starting the season in making the cut in just 1 of 10 tournaments; he has now made the cut in 4 of his last 5 tournaments. In 2025 the US Open last place finisher got $41,785; which is the worst he can do. This Sunday he should get his biggest payday of the year so far.
He'll be back on the Korn Ferry Tour next year.
