The Panthers have fired coach Frank Reich after just 11 games, in which Carolina was an NFL-worst 1-10. Chris Tabor has been named the interim coach.

Reich sucks, but David Tepper sucks more.
Frank Reich was supposed to turn the Panthers into a winner immediately. Now he’s gone after 11 games, earning the odious honor of having the worst coaching tenure in the history of the franchise.
On Monday morning the Carolina Panthers announced that Reich had been fired as head coach following a crushing loss to the Tennessee Titans, which might have been the Panthers’ last best chance to win another game in 2023.

Victory Wembanyama has amazed countless NBA fans and players during his rookie season. That list includes Denver Nuggets rookie Jalen Pickett, who was impressed by something other than Wembanyama’s on-the-court skillset.
Before the Nuggets’ game against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday, Pickett and Wemby shook hands on the court. There’s nothing crazy about that, since guys shake hands all the time.
Then again, this is Wemby we’re talking about. He can turn even the simplest of things into something ridiculous.
The Nuggets’ rookie couldn’t believe his eyes (or hands).
Victor Wembanyama remains the greatest unicorn in sports. The kind of player you pull up clips of on your phone and show them to anyone, just to prove he exists. Wemby is inspiring, and it turns out that carries over to NBA players too.
The Spurs and Nuggets played on Sunday night, and it was the first chance for Denver rookie Jalen Pickett to get up close to the Spurs rookie. He couldn’t believe his eyes … or Wemby’s hands.
Good morning, I’m Dan Gartland. I shouldn’t be shocked, but I’m astonished that Iowa-Nebraska was higher-scoring than Giants-Patriots.

Head and shoulders above the rest
As the calendar flips to December, one NFL team stands unrivaled above the rest.
Paul Finebaum thinks Ohio State coach Ryan Day should pack his bags and run out of Columbus.
Day and the Buckeyes lost their third straight to the Wolverines after falling 30-24 Saturday in Ann Arbor. OSU fans are absolutely crushed as Michigan continues to cement itself as the king of the B1G.
Despite an incredibly impressive 56-7 record, fans seem to be turning on the man in charge of the Buckeyes. Finebaum thinks Day should leave the program while he might be able to find a soft landing spot.
Mike Elko flew into in College Station, Texas, in the early hours of Monday morning shortly after finalizing a deal to become the new coach of the Texas A&M football program.
The former Duke coach is going viral for the low-key arrival which occurred at approximately 2:15 a.m. CT. That’s because it stands in stark contrast to the 2017 arrival of predecessor Jimbo Fisher who was fired Nov. 12.
Elko walked off the private plane onto the tarmac and made his way to a plain white pickup truck. Photographers only had a few seconds to snap images of him before he disappeared.

Paul McGinley, the Irishman who captained the European Ryder Cup team in 2014, will replace Paul Azinger at the Hero World Challenge.
Last week, reports emerged that Curt Byrum would serve as the lead analyst for NBC Sports’ coverage of the Hero World Challenge.
But NBC Sports executives in Stamford, Connecticut, have decided they want to test the waters on someone else, on a man who should be quite familiar to golf fans worldwide.
The 2024 Baseball Hall of Fame ballot includes 12 newcomers. Let the debates begin.
Few candidates get on the ballot who are beyond debate. This year, Adriân Beltré is one of them, thanks to 3,166 hits, 477 homers and five Gold Gloves. Only Willie Mays reached those thresholds.
Voting is hard, however, because most candidates fall on the borderline. That’s especially true of first-time candidates this year such as Joe Mauer, Chase Utley and David Wright. Each was at some point among the best players in the game.
Former New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan ripped into Patriots coach Bill Belichick over the team’s quarterback controversy.
During an appearance on ESPN’s Get Up on Monday morning, Ryan fired multiple shots at Belichick over his unwillingness to name a starting quarterback. He then took things one step further, attributing all of Belichick’s success as a coach to having Tom Brady as a quarterback.
