Make no mistake about it. Tennessee baseball coach Tony Vitello overreacted to a fair and timely question last Saturday, then deflected and went off on a series of tangents as if blown by the winds of Omaha.
Vitello and his No. 1 overall seeded Volunteers still made it back to Omaha, Nebraska, for the second straight year to play in the College World Series, which has proven to be an Albatross around Rocky Top’s collective neck. As good as Tennessee has been in baseball over the years, the Vols have never won a national title in baseball.

Bryson DeChambeau remains in the hunt for a second U.S. Open title after posting another sub-70 round.
Bryson DeChambeau carded a 1-under 69 Friday at the 124th U.S. Open. It marks his second straight sub-70 score, an impressive feat at treacherous Pinehurst No. 2.
Coincidentally, he posted back-to-back rounds in the 60s to open up the U.S. Open at Winged Foot, where he won in 2020. Will history repeat itself?
Nevertheless, Friday’s second round challenged DeChambeau more so than on day one. He tallied five birdies and four bogeys.
The Astros released Abreu, who is still owed more than $30 million, after sending him to the minors in April.

Here we go again, another college basketball player’s NIL contract being leaked to the public so that the agent looks good in the process. Illinois transfer Coleman Hawkins has reportedly agreed to a $2 million deal to play for Kansas State next season.
The news was first reported by Shams Charania, who says he believes this is the most lucrative college basketball deal to be associated with NIL, pointing out that agents Nate Conley and Aaron Turner negotiated the deal.
Scottie Scheffler entered the 2024 U.S. Open playing at a consistently great level the golf world hasn’t seen since Tiger Woods in the early 2000s. Since his first win of the season at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March, Scheffler has since earned four more wins, including a walk-away victory at the Masters. That earns him the shortest pre-tournament odds heading into the year’s third major championship that we’ve seen in over two decades.
