West Virginia’s men’s basketball team is in the market for a new head coach following the resignation and apparent retirement of Bob Huggins on Saturday following a recent DUI arrest.
With the Mountaineers reportedly seeking a coach for the long-term, college basketball broadcaster Dick Vitale floated an eye-opening candidate who could potentially fill the void left behind by Huggins.
On Sunday, Vitale took to Twitter with the idea of instating Tom Crean as West Virginia’s coach for the upcoming season.
The final round of the 123rd U.S. Open is underway at Los Angeles Country Club. Here’s a live look at Sunday’s best moments.
Bradley Beal will finally play for a championship contender.
The Wizards are trading the three-time All-Star to the Suns, according to multiple reports. Washington will acquire Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, and multiple second-round picks in the deal. Paul’s contract is not fully guaranteed for next season, while Shamet has three years left on his contract.
Beal, who will be 30 by the start of the season, averaged 23.2 points per game last year.

Fans watching the U.S. Open are ready to put the broadcast on mute as Paul Azinger’s commentary makes people want to pull out their hair.
NBC’s Paul Azinger has the attention of golf fans on this championship Sunday at the U.S. Open, but not for the right reasons. He is trending on Twitter because many people find his commentary hard to tolerate.
Azinger has been on the broadcast team for years, but this week at Los Angeles Country Club, so many more people are paying attention to what he has to say.
For those inclined to demand an answer, golf happened to Rickie Fowler on Sunday at LACC. But he found something more important.
Shortly after reports surfaced that the Wizards and Suns were close to finalizing a deal that will send Bradley Beal to Phoenix and Chris Paul to Washington, it appears that Paul might not stick around in the nation’s capital for long.
According to Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, the Wizards are expected to send Paul elsewhere in a subsequent trade, with the Clippers mentioned as a possible landing spot for the 12-time All-Star. A return to Los Angeles would reunite Paul with the franchise where he spent six seasons and helped guide the team to the playoffs each year.
Talk about terrible timing. As part of a Father’s Day celebration at Truist Park on Sunday, the Atlanta Braves planned to have infielder Charlie Culberson’s dad throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
One problem: the team designated Culberson for assignment on Sunday morning. Thus, with Culberson now off the roster, the team pulled his dad off the schedule. The team replaced the elder Culberson with Michael Harris’ father.
Charlie Culberson’s dad was scheduled to throw today’s first pitch. Michael Harris II’s dad will now take this honor on Father’s Day.
The sudden resignation of Hall of Famer Bob Huggins, done unceremoniously hours after news of his arrest for driving under the influence broke, has created a major late coaching vacancy in college basketball. Huggins was the steward of his alma mater’s basketball program for 16 years and helped further elevate it into a highly coveted job. Now, he departs at a delicate point in the offseason, leaving a new coach with work to do to retain a talented roster built mostly through the transfer portal this spring.
Timing aside, the fundamentals for this job are strong.
