Lebron James (Los Angeles Lakers)

With recent stories about LeBron being unhappy with certain aspects of how LA has treated him since Luka has arrived, he's a lock to return to the Lakers even though he is a free agent. You know LeBron's camp wouldn't be negotiating through the media if he wasn't coming back to LA. As much as I'd love to see the storybook ending of him coming back to Cleveland, they can't pay him what he wants and obviously LA can. Plus with the airing of his grievances with LA, the writing is on the wall for next season.
Would be a sweet ending though wouldn't it? LeBron at the 3 with our other starting 4? Would be sweet

PGA Tour (Official Thread)

That was one of the great 9 holes of all time, and that putt he hit to ice it will join the eternal majors highlights (with Jacks one iron, Pavins 3 wood, Paynes putt, etc.)
The long bunker shot to get up and down on 13 won’t be remembered much, but it should be.

Jake Diebler (Head Coach)

Diebs actually stacks up well compared to MOST B1G coaches over their respective first 2 seasons; however, there's no doubt this upcoming season is the crucial one. With 3 years left on his contract, after this upcoming season he will have 2 years left if not extended, and OSU typically does not let coaches have under 2 years left for recruiting purposes. Everything is lined up for him to lead the team to a good season and get a contract extension, if it doesn't happen there's no where else to turn.

Texas receiver shows awful moves a few months ahead of huge showdown with Ohio State

This video is worse than the one that Brandon Inniss had a few weeks ago.

Over each of the last two seasons, the Ohio State football team has taken down Texas. In 2024, it was in the Cotton Bowl, which propelled them towards winning the national championship. Last season, the Buckeyes took down the Longhorns at home in the Shoe in the season opener.

This year, the Ohio State Buckeyes travel down to Austin in Week 2. Both teams will get a warm-up game in Week 1 before this massive clash. These are two of the best teams in the country again, so this game will certainly have College Football Playoff implications.

In the offseason, Texas added Cam Coleman from the Transfer Portal. The former Auburn wide receiver was viewed as one of the best prospects in the portal. The newest Longhorn recently had a workout that was videotaped. If this is any indication of how he's going to play, Ohio State is going to be very happy.

Cam Coleman's offseason workout should make Ohio State fans happy

In several of the clips, Coleman looks like his shoes are stuck in mud. He looks slow as he starts each route. What makes matters worse is that he doesn't have any defense playing against him.

Ohio State receiver Brandon Inniss received some criticism for a similar video that came out with his offseason work. However, it's pretty clear that Coleman's tape is much worse than what Inniss put out. Coleman is supposed to be an elite talent. Inniss has never been better than a third option.

If this is how Coleman is going to play when these two teams meet in September, Ohio State fans are going to be ecstatic. Ohio State is replacing a couple of starting cornerbacks, so a slower Coleman would certainly help the defense in that big matchup.

Texas fans have been touting his arrival as something that can help take the team to the next level. Now, fans are piling on him about looking slow. A few months ahead of the biggest matchup for Texas in the non-conference portion of the schedule, this looks bad.

2026 World Cup (Official Thread)

Granted, I wasnt going to watch it anyways, but I'm so grateful that Chicago is missing out on being part of this shitshow. Only good part of the world cup is if the English fans lay waste to some host city.

Detroit should be perma host for all England games. Play the motherfucker in the Big House for the cosmic win.

The thought of a drunken/high/violent mob of English soccer fans laying waste to Ann Arbor warms me way down in the frozen parts of my soul.

Just sayin': And then there were 2. Kudos to both UVA and UT. They both lost the doubles point; however, they both fought back to win the match and advance to the Finals. To accomplish this they both had a dominate "ace" in the #1 game (i.e. UVA had #1 ranked Dylan Dietrich and UT had #3 ranked Sebastian Gorzny) who pulled out wins.

Triple Crown (Kentucky Derby/Preakness/Belmont)

Just sayin': The "Horse From U.N.C.L.E." wins The Preakness.....:lol:

Napoleon Solo wins 151st Preakness Stakes

260516-preakness-ww-1623-28e210.avif


The horse, trained by Chad Summers, entered with 7-1 odds.

For all its history and tradition, the Preakness was expected to have a different feel this year. Golden Tempo, the Kentucky Derby winner, and Renegade, the Derby runner-up, were not slated to run the race. This was only the second time in 40 years that the top two Derby finishers had sat out.

The race was also being held at Laurel Park, in Laurel, Maryland, as Baltimore’s Pimlico Race Course continues to undergo renovations. A field with no head-and-shoulders favorite? On a new track? Anything could happen.

Napoleon Solo, a horse that entered with 7-1 odds and had finished fifth in his last two races, won the Preakness on Saturday, overtaking the favorite Taj Mahal down the stretch while also holding off another strong contender, Iron Honor.

For Napoleon Solo’s trainer Chad Summers, this was his first Triple Crown win. “To come here with a horse that Mr. Gold allowed me to pick out for $40,000 and get the job done on a stage like this, it’s just unbelievable,” Summers said on the NBC telecast afterward, referring to Al Gold, the horse’s owner.

Iron Honor took second while Chip Honcho finished third.

2027 IL TE Brady Johnson (Northwestern Verbal)

Ohio State is going after a Big Ten opponent’s key recruit that is set to play college football with the son of Ryan Day

Ryan Day’s son recently committed to play football at a Big Ten program. Now, the Ohio State Buckeyes are trying to flip one of RJ Day’s future targets.

Ohio State is after a future teammate of RJ Day to try to pull off a flip

The Buckeyes’ coaching staff has been busy on the road recruiting and recently made a stop in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, and offered a Northwestern commitment. Ohio State has extended an offer to 2027 three-star TE Brady Johnson, who has been committed to Northwestern since Feb. 4.

Asked if he would take an official visit to Ohio State, Johnson said, “As of right now, I think so. I am fully committed to Northwestern still though,” via Rivals.

Ohio State tight ends guru Keenan Bailey recently visited Johnson at home home and he clearly has the attention of the 6-foot-3, 220-pound tight end.

“I love him as a coach,” Johnson said, via Rivals. “He is a highly intelligent and energetic coach that hammers down on the little things. He expects the most out of his players and that they will give him the most back. He is someone you definitely want to play for as he gives everything he has to make you and the team better.”

Ohio State has plenty of work with the class of 2027 to get done with just 11 commitments at this time. The Buckeyes are still in search of their first tight end commitment for the class, so it makes sense that they’re turning up the heat on Johnson.
