The Sunday after the college football regular season concludes typically comes with a flurry of activity, which kicks the coaching carousel into overdrive. But this year’s “Black Sunday” might end up being much quieter than usual due to the volume of jobs (14) that came open before season’s end.  Four schools — Maryland, Wisconsin, Baylor […]

I’d like to offer a little bit of sympathy to Donovan Mitchell. He is currently leading a team on a 52-win pace that has largely been without its starting point guard and has seen almost every other role player miss games here or there. He is averaging 29.9 points per game, just barely above Larry […]

It is a frustrating exercise, and there’s a decent chance it will bum you out. In theory, Davis’ situation should be simple: He’s turning 33 in […]

Joe Burrow is expected to make his return to the field this Thanksgiving when his Cincinnati Bengals travel to take on Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. Burrow suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury back in Week 2 that required surgery, but he returned to practice two weeks ago and will return to help […]

It’s a top-of-the-table clash in the Champions League as Bayern Munich and Arsenal meet on Wednesday at the Emirates Stadium. Along with Inter Milan, the duo are the only other teams with four wins from their first four games as they’re establishing themselves as two of the biggest contenders for the Champions League crown. Defending […]
