Spoken like a man about to accept the head coaching job at Michigan.
Statement from Kalen DeBoer: "I have not spoken and have no interest in speaking with anyone else about any other job. I am fully committed to this program and look forward to continuing as the head football coach at the University of Alabama."

My (crazy) idea- no subbing on a player to kick a FG. You either need a kicker who can sorta run a route or have to hope your halfback won't slice it.
Football is not its best version of itself if you can kick a 60-yard FG like that ho hum on a fourth-and-3 in that spot. Amazing stuff but objectively not as compelling as Marmalard being forced to throw for the yardage. It's a gameplay problem. You gotta fix it

I have a bunch of pre-rolls that someone gave to me and I don’t really smoke much because I’m like if a baby was a stoner, so I am passing them out like candy to the neighbors who are out shoveling the sidewalk

Oh no...please don't suspend me with pay during grading season
From the Oklahoma U student paper: the school is now saying it will automatically suspend faculty (with pay) in response to student complaints

Column:
FIFA’s pricing strategy for World Cup is not only terrible for foreigners who want to travel, it also treats U.S. sports fans as FIFA’s personal ATM and excludes many domestically from a sport which is still in a growth phrase in the U.S.

Exorbitant World Cup ticket prices could ruin hopes of growing soccer in the U.S.
Even the least expensive tickets for next summer's World Cup will be unaffordable for the majority of Americans

Absolutely staggering to consider the deadweight loss that AI has caused educators in terms of burdening them by making cheating easier, and how little our society's elites care
Across the country, a small but growing number of educators are experimenting with oral exams to circumvent the temptations presented by powerful artificial intelligence platforms such as ChatGPT.
To AI-proof exams, professors turn to the oldest technique of all

Now we think of the Bucs creamsicle uniforms as cool throwbacks, but you have to remember that when the Bucs changed their uniforms, it was because the creamsicles were totally identified with the really horrible 80s Bucs teams. There was a reason they wanted a change.
