The men’s NCAA tournament is down to four teams, and only the No. 1 seeds are still dancing. Let’s rank them by their championship chances.
The top teams during the 2024-2025 men’s college basketball season always seemed a cut above the rest of the country. That idea was confirmed forever when all four No. 1 seeds reached the men’s Final Four for the first time since 2008.

The Indianapolis Colts traded way, way down from the 14th overall pick in Bill Barnwell’s annual NFL mock draft with all trades.
Each year, Barnwell puts together draft day trade packages for each team that could entice them to move up or down. If applicable, he takes into account the GM’s history when it comes to trades on draft day, and Barnwell also used the Jimmy Johnson trade value chart to create trades that were fair for all teams.

A ‘free’ transfer that is not really free at all: Jonathan David’s (25) significant financial demands have been revealed in a report by Sacha Tavolieri.

The WNBA is coming off its most successful campaign in the league’s 28-season history, setting highs in viewership, attendance and merchandise sales. Undoubtedly, Fever guard Caitlin Clark was the primary reason for the spurt in popularity. Few modern-day athletes are more responsible for their respective sport’s sudden growth than Clark.
