Colorado football’s latest recruiting win may already be creating another opportunity. Four-star wide receiver Jaiden Kelly-Murray, who committed to the Buffaloes on Memorial Day, has started drawing attention to another target in three-star Texas receiver Brody Knowles.Kelly-Murray named Knowles as a player he would like to team up with in Boulder, and that alone has turned heads among Colorado fans. Knowles is a big-bodied receiver at 6-foot-4 and 190 pounds, and he ranks as one of the more intriguing wideouts in the 2027 class. Colorado offered him on April 22, and the Buffs have stayed involved ever since.Knowles fits what…
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell wishes the narrative surrounding teammate James Harden was different when it comes to the playoffs and his lack of a championship ring.”I think we ignore leadership by him,” Mitchell told reporters. “I think we ignore the human and the character and who he is. … This man changed the game of basketball in ways we’ve never seen before. We live in such a ring-dominant culture that we’re willing to write a guy off because he hasn’t gotten there. Guy who transcended basketball. In 75 years, no one’s been able to do what he does.”We don’t…
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court declined to accept the NFL’s appeal in the case brought by Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores (and Steve Wilks and Ray Horton). The decision allows his case to proceed in court — and, in theory, to culminate with a public trial.Both sides have issued comments in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s ruling.“We respect the Supreme Court’s decision not to grant review,” a league spokesperson said. “Regardless of the forum, we are fully prepared to defend ourselves as this matter proceeds.”Said Flores’s lawyers: “We are pleased that the Supreme Court declined to accept the NFL’s…
On three occasions during the Hampshire innings, Coppack throttled the Hawks – who had chosen to bat first – with unrelentingly accurate bowling.Firstly, in the powerplay, where her two overs went for nine runs, with the added bonus of having Georgia Adams caught at mid-wicket. Her third over saw her bowl Francesca Sweet – who had looked dangerous with a quickfire 20 – and only went for four runs.And her final return, in the penultimate over of the innings, ended Hampshire’s most fruitful partnership – 45 from 28 balls between Rhianna Southby and Nancy Harman as Coppack dismissed both of…
The outer black pieces were designed by Kevin Germanier, who is known for his sustainable approach to fashion, while the gold dress was custom made by Nike.”Sometimes people say athletes are in show business or entertainers or whatever,” Osaka said.”For me, Grand Slam walk-ons are the only time that I possibly feel like I’m an entertainer.”At the Australian Open in January, Osaka made a statement entrance in a jellyfish-inspired outfit which she dedicated to her two-year-old daughter Shai.Former British number one Annabel Croft said a lot of players “would not be able to live up to the expectation” of walking…
Michigan football has been on a recruiting tear the past few weeks, but as the Wolverines accumulated talent from around the country to fill the 2027 class, the big name that didn’t necessarily get the ball rolling, but got it to accumulate speed, was 2027 Chicago (Ill.) Mount Carmel four-star wide receiver Quentin Burrell.At 6-foot-3, 200 pounds, Burrell is highly ranked according to all three national recruiting services. He’s rated the highest by ESPN, which has him as the No. 57 player in the country, but Rivals is also quite high on him, ranking him No. 83 nationally. The Wolverines…
The New York Knicks haven’t reached the NBA Finals since the 1990s, when they played for a championship twice in the 1993-94 and 1998-99 seasons.As you might imagine, ticket prices have increased significantly for the 2025-26 edition:It makes sense that a fanbase that hasn’t seen a title in 53 years—the Knicks were last champions in the 1972-73 season—would be willing to pay extreme amounts of money to take part in the NBA Finals this time around. This Knicks team certainly appears to have some magic about it, winning 11 straight games in these playoffs. Granted, either the Oklahoma City Thunder…
There are 32 teams in the NFL, and over the course of his career, Aaron Rodgers has beaten 31 of them. With Rodgers announcing that he plans to retire at the end of the 2026 season, he’ll have one last chance to become just the fifth quarterback in NFL history to beat all 32 teams.Heading into the 2026 season, only four quarterbacks have beaten all 32 teams: Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Brett Favre. (Joe Montana and Fran Tarkenton are kind of in the club, too. They never got a chance to beat all 32 teams, but they…

Luke Littler has offered to provide the tickets for the Prince of Wales for the World Championship at Alexandra Palace later this year.Littler, 19, received his MBE at Windsor Castle last week when Price William told him the event, which Littler won in 2025 and 2026, “looks like a good night out”.”Prince William said he’s been following the journey and we were just talking about how darts has blown up,” Littler told the Press Association.”I didn’t invite him, but if he needs a few tickets I’m sure myself or the PDC will sort some.”Littler rose to fame by reaching the…
