The ending to the game between Gonzaga and UCLA was one for the ages.
In a wild, back and forth affair between No. 3 seed Gonzaga and No. 2 seed UCLA on Thursday night, it came down to clutch shooting and playmaking down the stretch as the Bulldogs edged the Bruins to advance to the Elite Eight of the men’s NCAA tournament.
UCLA led by 13 at halftime, but went over 11 minutes without making a field goal in the second half. That led to a wild swing on the scoreboard, as Gonzaga led by eight with over a minute to go.
But UCLA was not done yet.
The league is trying to make this play safer for players.
It is the time of the year when the NFL’s competition committee discusses possible rules changes, and one specific rule proposal would be a major change. According to ESPN’s Kevin Seifert, the committee proposed a rule that would place all kickoff fair-catches at the 25 yard-line, even if the player fair catches inside that yardage.
A different proposal would move the spot on a punt return touchback from the 20-yard line to the 25, a similar change that the NFL implemented years ago for kickoffs.

This story kept getting weirder, and weirder.
The Lamar Jackson saga has taken some incredible twists and turns, but nothing tops everything that went down on Thursday night. Earlier this week reports emerged that someone was contacting teams on Jackson’s behalf, and this person wasn’t an agent registered with the NFL Players Association (NFLPA). On Thursday we possibly learned their name, and this was just the tip of the iceberg.
Up to this point Jackson has been largely representing himself.
Former Colorado star Darian Hagan has zero issue with Deion Sanders telling players to hit the transfer portal.
Sanders went viral when he bluntly informed players on Colorado’s roster to leave because he was bringing his own guys, and they clearly weren’t coming to ride the bench.
Due to the fact we live in very stupid times, not everyone loved Sanders’ message.
Deion made it clear to the Colorado players that he’s bringing his own luggage with him “and it’s Louis” so they better take a look at the transfer portal pic.twitter.

NEW YORK CITY — For nine minutes and 52 seconds, Madison Square Garden was filled with one chant:
“FAU! FAU!”
Senior guard Michael Forrest hit two consecutive three pointers to give the Owls their first lead since 3-2 in the first half, and from that point on, something clicked.
The energy shifted in Madison Square Garden, the section of FAU fans started to sound less like a quiet band, and more like an avalanche, rolling thunderous chants of “FAU”.

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson might be in a bit of an awkward situation in the locker room.
Robinson, who signed a $60 million contract last summer, has seen a significant decline in his recent production.
Since March 9, he’s scored double digits just once. He’s scored two or fewer points in three of the team’s last five games. Apparently, he’s fed up and could use a change of scenery. How do we know that?
He reportedly liked a tweet suggesting he be traded to Dallas or San Antonio and players be benched if they don’t give them the ball.
