It’s that time of year where people want predictions on Matt Rhule’s first Nebraska season. This just in: I have no idea., writes Tom Shatel. But the last 60 years of Nebraska football history tells us some sort of significance is coming for the program.
Take a look at Penn State futures and odds for the upcoming college football season.
ATLANTA — Conference realignment means more work, less academic time for unpaid athletes. The callous disregard for the welfare of athletes by college sports leaders who are chasing money has become too much even for Missouri football coach Eli Drinkwitz. In May, Drinkwitz lamented the suppo…
Damar Hamlin reached another major milestone in his return to football by suiting up for the Buffalo Bills preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts. And it didn’t take long for the Bills safety to make an impact in his first appearance in a competitive setting since going into cardiac…
Fans waved a German flag and chanted Dirk Nowitzki’s name when he walked the red carpet into Symphony Hall for the Basketball Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony. It was all part of the international flavor at the proceedings. France's Tony Parker and Spain's Pau Gasol were also members of th…
LOS ANGELES — The Kelly Plan. It has a nice ring to it, but it will never happen. Chip Kelly's idea about how to steer the college sports enterprise away from fully losing its soul — having top football schools be classified as independent and playing by their own rules, allowing the rest of…
It is unclear if a four-game suspension Michigan proposed to settle a case involving recruiting violations by football coach Jim Harbaugh will be accepted by the NCAA Committee on Infractions. Michigan received notice earlier this year that the NCAA was investigating impermissible texts and …
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh and the NCAA were working toward a negotiated resolution regarding violations alleging Harbaugh misled NCAA investigators, but multiple national reports on Saturday indicate that has been derailed. What this means is the case involving Michigan and Harbaugh, who faces a Level I allegation by the NCAA that he lied and misled investigators who were looking into Level ...
Phil Mickelson was in the hunt at LIV Golf. That was before Cameron Smith ran off three birdies to pull away in LIV Golf-Bedminster. Smith had a 67 and those late birdies have allowed him to build a four-shot lead over Mickelson and Dean Burmester at Trump National. Smith is going for his second LIV title.
Lucas Glover is playing so well that he felt frustrated after a 66 in the FedEx St. Jude Championship. That gives him a one-shot lead over Taylor Moore going into the final round of the PGA Tour postseason opener. Glover now has rounds of 66 or lower in six of his last seven rounds on tour. He was down about missing a few short chances coming in. Tommy Fleetwood is two shots behind. Jordan Spieth and Max Homa are three back.
Anthony Edwards led a balanced effort with 15 points, Jalen Brunson added 11 points and eight assists, and the U.S. World Cup team beat Slovenia 92-62 on Saturday in an exhibition game. Austin Reaves and Tyrese Haliburton each scored 10 for the Americans, who improved to 2-0 on their five-game slate of exhibitions before getting to the Philippines for the World Cup.
No matter the position group, Nebraska's coaches have led an intense, competitive first two weeks of fall practice. "Their mentality brings a lot out of us," said one defender.
Reports: NCAA panel nixes Jim Harbaugh’s suspension deal
Lilia Vu moved into position to become the first American this century to win multiple women’s majors in the same year. She’s got company atop the leaderboard in home favorite Charley Hull at the Women’s British Open. The final major of the year has come to life at Walton Heath thanks to a third-round collapse from overnight leader Ally Ewing. Her five-shot advantage lasted nine holes before being swallowed up by a slew of chasers. Vu (67) and Hull (68) share the lead on 9 under. One shot back is Yin (67) and Hyo Joo Kim (68).
AXTELL — The Axtell football team has aspirations of writing a new chapter in its school’s history.
OMAHA — Former University of Nebraska at Kearney baseball coach Damon Day has been named the new baseball coach at Omaha Skutt Catholic High School.
The Ansley/Litchfield Spartans struggled through a two-win season in 2022, but are looking for better results this season.

ATLANTA — Conference realignment means more work, less academic time for unpaid athletes. The callous disregard for the welfare of athletes by college sports leaders who are chasing money has become too much even for Missouri football coach Eli Drinkwitz.

Chip Kelly's idea about how to steer the college sports enterprise away from fully losing its soul — having top football schools be classified as independent and playing by their own rules, allowing the rest of the sports to be grouped together regionally as they used to be — is simply too logical for college ...

Damar Hamlin reached another major milestone in his return to football by suiting up for the Buffalo Bills preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts.
