Consider Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James a fan of Ohio State’s recent personnel move.
On Monday, the 20-time NBA All-Star gave a special shout-out to Buckeyes men’s basketball coach Jake Diebler for his promotion from an interim head coaching role to the full-time position.

Vladimir Putin announced in 2023 that Russia was set to start organizing summer and winter sporting events called the Friendship Games. If it sounds similar to the Olympics, that’s because it is, and the International Olympic Committee isn’t exactly pleased about it.
The first-ever Friendship Games are set to begin within weeks of the closing ceremony of the upcoming Paris Olympics on August 11, and with that date fast approaching, the IOC has officially come out against what it is calling an attempt to bring politics into sports.
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James’s newest addition to his off-court portfolio arrived on Tuesday with the debut of his and Mind the Game podcast with former NBA guard-turned-ESPN personality JJ Redick.

Every Monday Alex Miceli will share what he learned from the previous week in golf.
You always learn something new at the Players Championship. So I wasn’t surprised when I talked to Joel Dahmen and he had a bone to pick with Netflix over his appearance in Full Swing Season 2.
The 36-year-old was one of the cult heroes in Season 1 of the hit golf docudrama, when he made a run at the 2022 U.S. Open at The Country Club eventually finishing T10.

Prospect fatigue has officially set in.
With just over a month until the 2024 NFL Draft, we’re officially in silly season.
