The broadcast duo has a uniquely intertwined history that will come together in a spectacular way at Super Bowl LVII.
Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen will handle the Super Bowl LVII broadcast responsibilities on Sunday evening, capping off the duo’s first year together in the booth as Fox’s lead NFL broadcast pairing. Although the two will get the chance to add their voices to the most-watched television event of the year, their relationship with one another dates back well before their time on the air.
Saturday’s college basketball game between UC Davis and UC Santa Barbara ended in fireworks. A nasty brawl saw both benches clear in an effort to break things up and led to multiple ejections.
The incident occurred with just over three minutes left in the second half of a 14-point game.
Gauchos grad transfer Andre Kelly swatted Aggies sophomore Ty Johnson’s shot attempt at the rim. As UCSB took off on a fast break, Kelly turned to Johnson. He appeared to have some words for the man he just rejected.
Moments later, as the two jawed back and forth, Kelly raised his arms.
The Buckeyes quarterback was not immune to criticism from his fan base.
Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud was one of the top players in college football over the past two seasons, but he wasn’t able to lead his team beyond the College Football Playoff semifinals.
For most schools, a 21-4 record over a two-season span is enough to become a school legend, but expectations are higher at Ohio State. As a result, Stroud’s 0-2 record against rival Michigan and 0-1 record in the Playoff is what stands out to some fans.
Phoenix reportedly is loading up for the stretch run.
The Suns plan to sign veteran guard Terrence Ross after he finalizes a contract buyout with the Magic, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
Phoenix was among a few franchises, including the Mavericks, that had expressed interest in Ross after Wojnarowski first reported that the 32-year-old was seeking a buyout from Orlando. Wojnarowski went as far as to call Dallas the “frontrunner” to land Ross, but Suns owner Mat Ishbia and coach Monty Williams reportedly made a push for the veteran Saturday and were successful.
It would appear that the Eagles and Colts have a thing for each other’s coordinators. Indianapolis is reportedly set to continue a unique trend between the two teams with its next head coaching hire.
According to Adam Schefter, the Colts have “targeted Eagles’ offensive coordinator Shane Steichen to be their next head coach after informing other remaining candidates this morning that they are moving in a different direction.” The two sides have yet to reach an agreement, but are hopeful to do so after Super Bowl LVII.
The assistant will follow head coach DeMeco Ryans to Houston.
The Texans are expected to hire 49ers offensive assistant Bobby Slowik as their next offensive coordinator, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports. Slowik spent last season as the 49ers’ pass game specialist.
Slowik and new Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans have coached together as assistants in San Francisco for the past six years. Both Slowik and Ryans began as defensive quality control coaches, with Slowik later switching to offense while Ryans worked his way up the defensive staff.
The former Jets and Bills head coach may be headed from the studio back to the sideline.
Sean Payton has started to put together his staff with the Broncos, and he’s eyeing an intriguing candidate for one of the team’s top roles: Rex Ryan.
Jay Glazer reported Sunday morning that Payton recently interviewed Ryan to be Denver’s defensive coordinator.
Ryan has been out of the NFL’s coaching ranks since 2016, when he served as the head coach of the Bills. He’s since gone on to become an analyst at ESPN, making regular appearances on Sunday NFL Countdown.
Kliff Kingsbury bought himself a ticket from Thailand to Houston to interview with the Houston Texans and has come away empty-handed.
The former Cardinals head coach was let go after the regular season in which they posted just four wins.
Kingsbury was in Space City to interview for the offensive coordinator opening on head coach DeMeco Ryans’ staff. However, according to Tom Pelissero, the Texans have gone another direction and tapped Bobby Slowik as their new OC.
The #Texans are hiring Bobby Slowik as their offensive coordinator, per sources.
Perhaps it was the moment Nick Bosa saw 6’8” Jordan Mailata lining up against him when he realised he had made a mistake. Maybe it was when Mailata’s 26 stone frame made contact with Bosa’s. Surely it was when Mailata threw Bosa to the ground and pinned him there for a few seconds to stress his point.
