WNBA's Connecticut Sun set to relocate to Houston following $300 million sale, per reports
The Fertitta family has agreed to a deal to purchase the Connecticut Sun for a record-breaking $300 million and move the WNBA franchise to Houston, according to reports from Paper City Magazine and ESPN. A sale would be subject to approval by the WNBA's Board of Governors, and it was not official as of Friday evening.If the deal is approved, the Sun would reportedly play the 2026 season in Connecticut before moving to Houston in 2027. The team is expected to play at the Toyota Center, home of the NBA's Houston Rockets, and be renamed the Houston Comets, taking on the name of the original WNBA franchise in the city, which existed from 1997 until 2008. The original Comets, led by Cynthia Cooper, Sheryl Swoopes and Tina Thompson won the league's first four championships and were the first WNBA dynasty.

The last time a WNBA team was sold was in 2021, when Larry Gottesdiener led a group that bought the Atlanta Dream for under $10 million.
Just sayin': You're telling me that in just 5 years the value of an WNBA went from under $10M to $300M...

After two bad hires, maybe third time’s the charm.
Sources: Cincinnati to hire Utah State's Calhoun as coach
Jerrod Calhoun, who has been the Bearcats' top target since the job opened, has led the Aggies to back-to-back NCAA tournaments.www.espn.com
Sources: Cincinnati to hire Utah State's Calhoun as coach
Cincinnati is expected to hire Utah State's Jerrod Calhoun as its next head coach, sources told ESPN on Monday.
It marks a return home for Calhoun, an Ohio native who graduated from Cincinnati in 2004 and began his coaching career as a student assistant under Hall of Famer Bob Huggins as a senior in college.
Calhoun just led Utah State to the second round of the NCAA tournament, beating Villanova before falling to Arizona on Sunday night.
Utah State officials have been notified of his departure to Cincinnati, sources told ESPN, and per his contract, the school will be owed nearly $3.9 million, which it plans to use for potential candidates and the NIL pool for next season.
In two years at Utah State, Calhoun went 55-15, leading the Aggies to back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances and a sweep of the Mountain West regular-season and conference tournament championships this season.

QB Coach Billy Fessler (National Champion)

Ohio State’s roster is loaded, and the headlines tend to follow the stars.
Jeremiah Smith headlines one of the best receiver rooms in the country. The defense continues to reload with elite talent. Julian
Sayin has already emerged as one of the top quarterbacks in college football.
But behind all of that, one of the most important figures in the program may not take a single snap this season.
Quarterbacks coach Billy Fessler sits in a role that could quietly shape the next two years of Ohio State football. Because for all the talent on the roster, the Buckeyes’ championship ceiling will ultimately come down to quarterback development.
That starts with Sayin. In his first year as Ohio State’s starter, he produced at a high level, throwing for 3,610 yards, 32 touchdowns, and just eight interceptions while completing roughly 77 percent of his passes. Those numbers put him firmly in the national conversation and showed he can operate the offense at a high level.
But at Ohio State, production is only part of the equation. The next step is turning efficiency into dominance. That means improving pocket presence against elite pass rushes, elevating red-zone execution, and consistently making the handful of throws that decide playoff games.
The jump from very good to elite is rarely about talent. It is about refinement, decision-making, and consistency in the biggest moments. That is where Fessler’s influence becomes critical.
Fessler’s background suggests he is built for that responsibility. His experience working in multiple offensive systems and focusing on quarterback development has earned him a reputation as a detail-oriented coach who prioritizes mechanics, processing, and understanding the full structure of an offense.
At this level, every quarterback has arm talent. What separates the best is how quickly they diagnose defenses, how they handle pressure, and how consistently they execute in high-leverage situations. Fessler’s role is to sharpen those areas for Sayin, turning a highly productive quarterback into one capable of leading a championship run.

Ultimately, Ohio State’s next two seasons may hinge on what happens in the quarterback room. The Buckeyes will have the talent to compete for championships. They will have the skill players, the depth, and the defensive pieces needed to make a run.
But as always, the difference between contending and winning comes down to quarterback play. Billy Fessler may not be the most visible coach on the staff, but his impact will be felt every Saturday. If Sayin makes the leap to elite and St. Clair develops into the next answer, Ohio State’s championship window stays wide open.
If not, the margin narrows quickly.
The overlooked coach who could define Ohio State’s next two seasons
With Julian Sayin’s rise to elite status and Tavien St. Clair’s development behind the scenes, Billy Fessler’s work in the quarterback room could ultimately shape Ohio State’s championship window over the next two seasons.
