The Notre Dame football team just got a whole lot tougher. Frankly, they also got easier to root for, too.
In the most American move of all-time, the Fighting Irish have officially welcomed 30-year-old Eric Goins to the roster as the program’s newest kicker.
Goins, who graduated high school in 2012 (!!!), last played college football for The Citadel in 2015 before joining the Army.
Play like a champion today!

Eric Goins, who played at The Citadel from 2012-15 and spent the next seven years in the United States Army, is joining Notre Dame football as a walk-on kicker.

The Titans announced Ran Carthon has been promoted to executive vice president/general manager, Chad Brinker has been promoted to president of football operations, and Brian Callahan has been hired to be their head coach.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud played with the poise of veteran during his rookie season—and it turns out he can talk trash like a vet, too. 
Baltimore Ravens middle linebacker Roquan Smith was wearing a microphone for last weekend’s divisional round matchup between the two teams, and the mic picked up a whole bunch of top-notch audio. 
The best bit was the interaction between Smith and Stroud. After Smith chased Stroud out of bounds on a scramble, Smith told him, “You better get your ass.”
“You wanna hit me so bad,” Stroud replied.

Jedd Fisch has a huge task ahead of him, maintaining the momentum built by Kalen DeBoer at Washington just a year after the Huskies made a trip to the national championship. Time will tell whether he’ll be successful, but he’s gone a long way towards securing the program’s immediate future at the most important position this week.
Washington’s quarterback situation was thrown into flux after the departure of DeBoer to Alabama, with 2023 Heisman candidate Michael Penix Jr. graduating.

In contrast to its highly successful next-door neighbors on Stadium Boulevard in Ann Arbor, Mich., Michigan men’s basketball is in a bit of a funk.
The Wolverines have limped to a 7-12 start in coach Juwan Howard’s fifth season, sustaining losses to mid-majors like Long Beach State and McNeese State. On Tuesday, Michigan bottomed out with a 99-67 loss to No. 2 Purdue—the team’s worst loss under Howard.

We may have already seen the last of Nick Kyrgios playing tennis without even knowing it. The appointment-viewing star may be just 28-years-old, but as he continues to struggle with injuries the idea of retirement has entered his mind.
Kyrgios’ most recent match came in June 2023 at the Stuttgart Open. Prior to that, you have to go back to the Japan Open in October 2022 to see his last result. His extremely limited starts have been the result of a knee injury, which required surgery, which is very obviously causing him issues on the court.

From Taylor Swift to Skip Bayless, these awards have it all.
It’s Oscar season, and to be honest we’re feeling a little left out. Our entertainment writing brethren get to talk about nods, snubs and the miscarriage of cinema justice — while we’re stuck with arguments over whether Brock Purdy is elite.
The NFL has more than enough drama to have its own Academy Awards, so we sat down as a panel to agree on the best examples of each category in the sport.
