Things are not going well for the Duke men’s basketball team right now. They’re 5-5 and dropped their third straight game on Saturday night with a 70-65 loss to Louisville. You’d expect coach Mike Krzyzewski, one of the most respected coaches in the game, to give well-practiced answers to questions during his postgame news conference. He’s been doing this for more than 40 years, so he obviously knows how to give diplomatic but respectful answers after a tough loss. Not on Saturday… Source link

ProFootball Talk on NBC Sports Chase Claypool calls the Browns “classless” Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool says the Browns were “super classless” during Super Wild Card Weekend.

The school announced Thursday morning that Chris Malone had been fired after a Tuesday night tweet calling Abrams “Fat Albert” along with other insults because of the results of Georgia’s Senate elections.

The question the Jacksonville Jaguars should be asking isn’t whether Urban Meyer is worth a whopping $12 million per year to coach the team, as ProFootballTalk reports he is seeking. It’s whether he is worthy of a golden opportunity to use the Jags’ considerable current resources — four top-50 draft picks, including the No. 1 overall, and some $81 million in salary-cap space — to reconstruct the roster on the fly. If so, then even that much money doesn’t matter. (Meyer would be one… Source link
