Grand Canyon head basketball coach Bryce Drew and Baylor head basketball coach Scott Drew share the same last name. That is not a coincidence. They are brothers.
Scott, who has coached the Bears since 2003, is four years older than Bryce, who is in his fourth year with the Antelopes. Both schools will compete in March Madness this week, in the same region.

ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk shared the harrowing story of a close call for the LA team.
The New York Yankees are one of the richest sports franchise in the world and they are making their players pay for in-flight WiFi.
Yes, that’s right… the team that is expected to have a $270+ MILLION payroll this year is nickel-and-diming their players and staff if they want to watch Netflix or scroll thru OutKick.com during their flights.

As OutKick’s Armando Salguero wrote earlier in the day, one of the top items on the New England Patriots’ to-do list was to get a wide-out to replace Jakobi Meyers who is off to Las Vegas.
So, it appears they went out and got themselves Super Bowl champ and TikTok fiend JuJu Smith-Schuster fit the bill.
