Howard University got boat-raced by Kansas on the first day of the NCAA Tournament. And that wasn’t even the worst part of their day.
Moments after their 28-point defeat, the Bison took another L when Vice President Kamala Harris entered the locker room.
A Howard alum, Harris addressed the young men who had just lost the biggest game of their lives as if they had just completed their first day of kindergarten. In the cringe-worthy chat, Harris stopped just short of congratulating the boys for going poo-poo on the potty.
Not exactly an ideal Thursday.

The two have played their entire careers together.
The Cowboys released Ezekiel Elliott after seven years with the team, marking the end of an era in Dallas. The running back was the No. 4 overall pick in the 2016 draft for the Cowboys, and leaves the team with the third-most rushing yards in franchise history.
With Elliott moving on, it seems like it will be an adjustment for the Cowboys quarterback. Dak Prescott was a fourth round pick during the 2016 draft, and he has spent his entire career playing alongside Elliott.
OUCH.
The men’s NCAA tournament is off and running and it didn’t take long for some madness to happen.
We saw a couple of big upsets on Thursday, with a No. 2 seed (Arizona) and a No. 4 seed (Virginia) being sent home in stunning fashion.
But you know what else we saw in the first full day of tournament action? One of the worst bad beats for bettors that you’ll ever see.
No. 1 seed Alabama, a 23.5 favorite over Texas A&M Corpus Christi, led by 24 points in the final seconds of the game. It appeared as if the time would run out and everyone who had that Bama bet would get paid out.
Mercyhurst hockey player Carson Briere has been suspended for throwing a woman’s wheelchair down a flight of stairs.
Briere, who is the son of Philadelphia Flyers interim general manager Daniel Briere, was captured on video throwing Sydney Benes’ wheelchair down the stairs at Sullivan’s Pub and Eatery in Erie, PA.
I usually don’t post anything serious on my twitter but something happened Saturday night and just can’t stomach the thought of this kid getting away with it. In the video below is a @MercyhurstU student and is currently on the @HurstMensHockey team. Carson Briere.
Philadelphia adds a signal caller with plenty of starting experience to its quarterback room
After a breakout season for Jalen Hurts in 2022, the Eagles are signing an experienced backup with 74 career starts under his belt as they seek to make another run at a Super Bowl in the coming year.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Philadelphia has signed former Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota, the No. 2 pick in the 2015 NFL draft and four-year Titans starter.
Mariota’s deal is for one year, worth $5 million with an additional $3 million in incentives, according to the report.
GREENSBORO, N.C. — Kentucky players filed into the locker room on Thursday before hitting the practice court. Following them was a mass progression of reporters, what seemed like every media member covering this region at the NCAA Tournament.
It’s not a surprise that the No. 6-seeded Wildcats are the main attraction, even with higher seeded teams in-town. Just like Duke, the Kentucky blue is a trademark of college basketball, with thousands of Big Blue supporters expected to fill Greensboro Coliseum on Friday night.
The Latvian 7-footer is enjoying arguably the best—and healthiest—season of his career. Washington needs all it can get from him to make a postseason push.
With the Wizards on the fringes of the Eastern Conference playoff hunt in the final weeks of the regular season, the club will gladly take all the contributions it can get the rest of the way; especially as it navigates one of the NBA’s most challenging schedules over that span.
That’s where Kristaps Porzingis, the quietly improved star, comes in.
South Carolina cut down the nets last season behind her standout performances. This year? The Gamecocks star is using her photographic memory for the game to outwit defenses.
It’s winter on the mainland, and Aliyah Boston—reigning National Player of the Year and pride of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands—is sitting in South Carolina’s practice facility, explaining how to get a taste of the Caribbean.
Aaron Donald is one of the greatest defensive linemen to ever play the game. The man is a freak athlete, especially when you consider he’s just 6-foot-1 making it look way too easy against offensive linemen who both tower over and outweigh him. Despite Donald’s greatness, James Franklin believes he’s actually hurt college football.

Donald has been out of the college game since being selected 13th overall out of Pittsburgh in the 2014 NFL Draft.

Who would reign supreme in an MMA and F1 crossover? An expert weighs in.
Who’s the baddest man in the Formula 1 paddock? Max Verstappen is the favorite to win his third racing championship in a row in 2023, but is he unbeatable outside the car, too? Lewis Hamilton could be in his final F1 season if Mercedes isn’t fast enough again, but would he beat George Russell in a fist fight? And how about Fernando Alonso’s old man strength?
We found the man to decipher that hypothetical scenario.
