Like father, like son?
That could be the case in a couple years as Dylan Gooden has committed to playing football on a full ride at the University of Maryland.
Dylan, who is the son of former New York Mets and Yankees pitcher Dwight “Doc” Gooden, is part of Maryland’s 2003 recruiting class.
He originally made the announcement back in December but officially signed off on it yesterday during National Signing Day.

A best bet from Pat Forde for Saturday’s SEC showdown between Auburn and Tennessee in Knoxville.
A pair of SEC powers and top-25 teams clash Saturday in Knoxville when No. 2 Tennessee welcomes No. 25 Auburn.
I love second-ranked Tennessee in this spot. I see the Vols ready to bounce back with some ferocity after losing at Florida on Wednesday and this is a favorable matchup. Tennessee is the best defensive team in the country, particularly at the three-point line. Opponents are making just 22.5 percent of their threes, and Auburn is a poor three-point shooting team (29.

Duke basketball coach Kara Lawson said that both her team and Florida State played with a men’s basketball in the first half of a game last weekend.
The No.
Here are our five leading candidates for the honor.
We’re already reaching the midpoint of conference play in men’s college basketball as the calendar flips to February, which means awards season is just around the corner. Purdue’s Zach Edey appears destined to win National Player of the Year honors, but the race for National Coach of the Year is wide open. Here’s a look at the five top candidates for this year’s award, with a first-year coach at the head of the list.

During a day of golf, Aaron Rodgers told onlookers that he was not considering a trade to the San Francisco 49ers, despite the speculation. The comment sparks Craig Carton and James Jones to decide which team would be the best fit for Rodgers should he decide to leave the Green Bay Packers. The same conversations are being had about Derek Carr, and while Craig is still convinced the former Las Vegas Raiders QB will end up with the New York Jets, James throws some doubt on that theory.
The Mets have spent more than anyone in free agency.
Duke women’s basketball coach Kara Lawson said that her team played with a men’s ball in Sunday’s game against Florida State.
LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Indiana Pacers 112-111 last night. LeBron scored 26 points and is now 63 points away from passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the all-time scoring list. After the game, LeBron talked about the magnitude of the record is, saying quote: ‘I think it’s one of the greatest records in sports in general. I think it’s up there with the home run record in baseball. It’s just one of those records you just don’t ever see or think it’ll be broken.
Jalen Hurts was asked what his best performance in the season was, and the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback said it has yet to come, hinting we should look for it in Super Bowl LVII. Craig Carton is a little skeptical, especially with Hurts going into the Super Bowl with the least passing yards throw in playoffs. James Jones joins Craig to decide how well he thinks Hurts will perform against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Neither rival is having the season it hoped for as they play for the first time in the post–Coach K era.
Wet piles of cardboard were being heaved into dumpsters at Krzyzewskiville on Thursday afternoon, remnants of the soggy sleepover by Duke students camping out to get in Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday for the annual home hatefest with North Carolina. The tents have all been relocated to the concourse of the football stadium now, where the vigil continues amid cold temperatures, leaden skies and spitting rain. It’s crappy camping weather.
