Bills sign recently released Steelers defensive tackle after Joey Bosa deal
The Bills have agreed to a deal with Larry Ogunjobi after signing Joey Bosa on Tuesday.The Buffalo Bills made a splash signing on Tuesday night when they added star pass rusher Joey Bosa on a one-year, $12.6 million contract. The Bills aren't done adding to their defensive line, though, as they hammered out a deal with recently released Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi on Wednesday morning.
Ogunjobi turned in another solid campaign in 2024, racking up 41 tackles and 1.5 sacks over 15 games for the Steelers. The team opted to move in a different direction once free agency started, though, releasing him on Monday. It didn't take long for him to find a new home, though, as he landed with Buffalo on a one-year, $8.3 million deal.

LSU’s Kim Mulkey allows assistant to coach SEC tourney game while she grieves death in family
LSU coach Kim Mulkey allowed assistant Bob Starkey to coach Friday night’s Southeastern Conference Tournament quarterfinal game against Florida while she continued to grieve an unexpected death in her family earlier this week.Starkey had prepared the team all week in practice and Mulkey thought it was best for him to coach the game. The ninth-ranked Tigers won 101-87.
Mulkey was away from the team this week before arriving in Greenville on Friday. She sat in the middle of the bench and communicated with Starkey during the game.
“I was where I was supposed to be,” Mulkey said of her time away, adding that her week was “awful.”
“My mind still isn’t good,” Mulkey said. “I don’t feel good first of all, but we all deal with death. I dealt with a stillborn grandchild, but I was prepared for that. We are prepared for our parents and prepared for our grandparents. It’s the unexpected deaths that throw you for a loop.”
Mulkey praised Starkey, saying he belongs in the Basketball Hall of Fame for his accomplishments.
When asked if being around her players helped with her healing process, Mulkey said, “No.”
“I love this game great of basketball but it’s not more important than the time it takes to heal from an unexpected death,” Mulkey said. “What I didn’t want is to be a distraction and I don’t think I was. I was the biggest cheerleader and I was able to sit in the middle of the bench and was able to communicate with players. I wasn’t coming in and taking over. I told Bob before the game, ‘You are coaching tonight.’ He had all week to prepare our team. ... Only time heals your heart.”

Former Ohio State basketball player scores his 4000th professional point
A former Ohio State basketball player has scored his 4000th professional point overseas.
The Ohio State basketball program had a lot of success during the Thad Matta era. He took the team to a national championship and multiple Final Fours. He had multiple NBA players on his teams. The Buckeyes had some of the best teams in history under Matta.
Back in Matta's era, the Buckeyes had a lot of guys play professionally. Other than the NBA guys that they had, they had plenty of other guys play overseas. Even some guys who you wouldn't think were going to be good enough to play professionally ended up playing for a salary.
One of those players is Amedo Della Valle. He played for the Ohio State Buckeyes for three years before deciding to go back home to Italy to play. He has been playing in Serie A, which is the highest level of basketball in the country. Della Valle has been playing great while over there.
Ex-Ohio State basketball player Amedo Della Valle scores his 4000th point
Della Valle recently scored his 4000th point in Serie A. He continues to play well at a high level. His high level of play is surprising, especially considering the fact that he wasn't even a normal part of the rotation for Ohio State. He has turned himself into quite the player.

Della Valle has had a lot of team success over the years. He has won a EuroCup Challenge and an LBA MVP. He has played on a lot of good teams. Della Valle clearly made the right choice to leave Ohio State early to go play professionally. He has made a lot of money.

Just sayin': I'm kind of surprised that he transferred to USC (East). Their QB1 from last season who is now just a RS Soph is back. He put up some decent numbers leading them to a 9-3 regular season (i.e. the losses were to #16 LSU, #12 Ole Miss, and #7 Alabama). They lost to #20 Illinois 21-17 in their bowl game.

Remember When: Ohio State's Goal-Line Stand in the Fourth Quarter Helps Secure A 21-7 Comeback Win over Michigan in 1954
Ohio State used a goal-line stand to secure a comeback win over Michigan in 1954, a game the Wolverines dominated throughout much of the first three quarters.
Remember When: A Goal-Line Stand in 1954
A big-time goal-line stand to help secure a 14-point win and a spot in the national championship game in the game before securing the title. Does that sound familiar?
For 99.9% of Ohio State fans, Jack Sawyer's scoop-and-score against Texas to secure a spot in the first 12-team College Football Playoff championship game would come to mind – and deservedly so. But it occurred seven decades ago, too.
After getting shut out by Michigan a season before and only winning one of the last nine matchups in The Game, the Buckeyes got their revenge on Nov. 20, 1954. All that stood between Ohio State and its third perfect season, a Big Ten Title and Rose Bowl berth was the No. 12-ranked team in the country.

The Wolverines returned the opening kickoff 68 yards. Michigan halfback Dan Cline finished the drive with a seven-yard touchdown on a double reverse on fourth down to give the road team an early 7-0 lead. With Ohio State unable to get anything going offensively, things got worse when senior halfback Bobby Watkins – one part of the two-headed monster OSU had in the backfield along with Howard “Hopalong” Cassidy – suffered an injury early on that forced him to the miss the rest of the game.
Michigan controlled the first 25 minutes of the contest, especially defensively. But then Jack Gibbs intercepted a pass thrown by Michigan's Jim Maddock and returned it 47 yards into the red zone, giving Ohio State the jolt it needed with a momentum-changing play. After Woody Hayes purposely subbed in his best quarterback, Dave Leggett, penalizing the Buckeyes five yards for an illegal substation, Leggett found Fred Kriss for a 16-yard touchdown to tie the score, 7-7. It remained that way until halftime, even though Michigan outgained the Buckeyes 190-42 in the first half.
With the score still tied, Michigan got the ball at OSU’s 14 after a four-yard punt by Ohio State fullback Hubert Bobo, who had a leg injury. A play later, the Wolverines had a 1st-and-goal at the four-yard line and were on the cusp of retaking the lead. That's when OSU had a game-changing goal-line stand.
After three straight runs by Michigan's Danny Cline and Dave Hill down to the half-yard line, the Wolverines decided to leave their offense on the field rather than kicking a field goal to potentially take a 10-7 lead. The Ohio State defense outpowered the Wolverines' offensive line and stopped Michigan from scoring, giving the Buckeyes a goal-line stand they badly needed.
"You can't run over a team like mine for a full 60 minutes," Hayes said after the game.
Twelve plays later, Ohio State capped a 100-yard drive that included Cassady running for 52 yards and ended with a score when Leggett connected with Dave Brubaker for a nine-yard touchdown, giving the Buckeyes their first lead of the game. OSU then forced a turnover with 44 seconds remaining when Cassady intercepted a Michigan pass and returned it 39 yards to OSU's 13. A few plays later, Ohio State's third touchdown of the game clinched a 21-7 comeback win for the Buckeyes.
"In the first half, we were outsmarted, outfought and outplayed," said Hayes. "In the second half, it was the reverse. Cassady's long run and pass interception were the big factors."
