Penn State: We're gonna let our public-radio broadcasters die rather than pay $17 million for someone else to operate them, because who would pay "a subsidy to run a business [when] there’s no guarantee they’ll stay in business"? (www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl...).

My fault -- listened while I walked the entire first half. Decided to come in and watch the second. All me, not Joe. 🤣

I’m looking to call someone for an interview that I’m doing about education within the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools ending of mandatory busing. Specifically, someone who has worked in the CMS system or went to school during this era (1996-2000). If you know someone, please have them reach out to me

James Franklin's buyout will be around $50 million. His contract was fully guaranteed.

That will be the second-highest CFB buyout ever, behind the $77 million Texas A&M is paying Jimbo Fisher.

So, what’s the plan now for Penn State? This season has been a disaster but how many coaches are 100% an upgrade? If you’re looking for your version of Dan Lanning (up and coming assistant who is about to make your program explode) who is that, and can you find them?

From this week's SIDEbar. gsideman.beehiiv.com/p/manager-ma... Journal Sentinel reporter Todd Rosiak told me Murph quoted Hamlet in the pressroom a few nights ago. What will tonight bring before the champagne? Stand by ...

Manager makes postgame pressers personal

Brewers skipper Murphy doesn’t need a playbook to understand the importance of connection
