Expected No. 1 Fernando Mendoza puts on show at Indiana pro day​

Fernando Mendoza warmed up with his college roommate Wednesday while nearly two dozen college teammates took turns running the 40-yard dash.

Then the Heisman Trophy-winning Indiana quarterback did what he always seems to do: deliver another impressive performance.

All 32 NFL teams sent scouts to Indiana's campus, more than 100 media members were credentialed and dozens of family members and friends of ex-Hoosiers showed up for a pro day unlike any other in school history. Most came to see the guy expected to be the first pick in this month's NFL draft, and Mendoza didn't disappoint, using his platform to potentially help his ex-teammates improve their draft standing.

"I feel like it went great," Mendoza said after throwing the last of his roughly 56 passes inside the John Mellencamp Pavilion. "You know quarterbacks have passed, have done shorter pro days than that. However, I just wanted to make sure everybody could showcase their abilities in front of all 32 NFL teams and really run routes that are applicable to the timing we're going to be running in the NFL."

Mendoza threw short, deep and medium-range passes, targeting receivers to the left, right and over the middle. He also threw on the run.

But Mendoza also said he's far from a finished product.

"I'm putting all of my efforts toward just trying to be the best quarterback possible for the season," he said. "But I know at the next level, there's going to be a lot more snaps under center, and that's a big adjustment. I need to get used to that and just the nature of the game. Not only that, the hash [marks] are more condensed and the speed of the game is faster. So, all those things I look forward to learning."

Random, but I just learned that Max is TE coach at UConn.

Pretty cool.

Gavin Williams dominates the Dodgers with 10K in 7 innings and Cleveland takes the series. 4-3 on this west coast road trip not too shabby

Don't teach in the ghetto. Many such cases of teachers having nervous breakdowns dealing with those kids.

This does not just happen in the “ghetto.”

LSU is doing the ND thing where they think if people hate them it's because they're good.......because people hate good things when it's not THEIR good thing. As if it's not also possible to be hated because you just hired contemptable fuckwits.

Tiger Woods will seek treatment outside U.S. after DUI arrest, stepping away from golf and 2026 Masters​

A Florida judge on Wednesday granted Woods' request to travel outside the United States for treatment at an inpatient facility, according to court documents. The motion was filed by Woods' attorney, Douglas Duncan, who noted that Woods requires an individualized program, "continuous monitoring," a "highly controlled environment" and privacy during this process.

"Based upon the Defendant's treating physician, the out of country treatment facility recommendation is based upon the Defendant's complex clinical presentation and the urgent need for a level of care that cannot safely or effectively be done within the United States, as his privacy has been repeatedly compromised," Duncan explained. "Ongoing medical scrutiny and public exposure create significant barriers to his care and would result in setbacks and an inability to fully engage in treatment."

Hollywood with another reboot.

Boring!!!
