How, on the biggest stage in college hoops, could you not have a pair of backup sneakers?
Well, how about we ask the Miami Hurricanes’ point guard Nijel Pack.
His shoe broke during the Hurricanes‘ Final Four date with the Uconn Huskies.
Now, I assumed that somewhere in the bowels of NRG Stadium, the Hurricanes had a wealth of emergency backup sneakers that could go to should the need arise.
This is apparently not the case

Earlier in the season, Lamont Butler dwelled on letting his team down in a big moment. Fast forward and he’s playing hero for San Diego State University in an even bigger one.
The NBA and NBPA reached an agreement for a tentative deal on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement early Saturday morning. Among the details of the new CBA includes a rule which will enable players to invest in NBA teams, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
The NBA would become the first of the major American professional sports leagues to give players the chance to invest in an equity stake in their respective teams, which could present massive financial upside to the athletes.

San Diego State took down Florida Atlantic in a historic — and dramatic — 40 minutes.
The Boston Red Sox completed a late comeback thanks to a walk-off home run from Adam Duvall to bear the Baltimore Orioles 9-8.
Although they got a little bit of help from Orioles left fielder Ryan McKenna
It all started with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th inning and the Orioles ahead 8-7. Red Sox outfielder Masataka Yoshida was at the plate, and he popped the 1-0 pitch to left field.
Now, this is what you’d call a “routine flyball.” One that if caught, would’ve ended the game (I’m not sure why I’m explaining this, you know how baseball works).
Chris Sale was on the mound for the Red Sox on Saturday against the Orioles, making his first April start since 2019.
Unfortunately for the southpaw, he didn’t have his best stuff, as he got blasted by the Baltimore batters to the tune of seven earned runs across three innings of work. Sale surrendered three home runs, and despite striking out six, was out of the game before the fourth inning.
After the rough outing, Sale didn’t mince words when discussing his own performance.
Lamont Butler hit jump shot at the buzzer, sending San Diego State to its first national championship game with a 72-71 win over Florida Atlantic in the Final Four on Saturday night.
The night of the immortals is happening in Los Angeles tonight, with Wrestlemania being held at SoFi Stadium. It was Logan Paul who would make the biggest Hollywood splash on opening night, zip-lining over the sold-out crowd.
First of all, Logan Paul is hard to like, but he has put in the work when it comes to professional wrestling. But if there’s one thing Logan Paul is good at, that would be making an entrance. During Wrestlemania 39, Paul decided to pay homage, in a weird way, to Shawn Michaels.
