Few sports pundits nowadays are willing to stake their claim (popular or unpopular) and back it up in the aftermath.
Add Emmanuel Acho to that list, who seemingly backtracked on his highly accurate remarks about LSU star Angel Reese. “In sports, you can’t act like the big bad wolf, then cry like Courage the Cowardly Dog,” Acho said concerning Reese, after the Elite-8 loss by the Tigers.

Seton Hall is NIT champs in the men’s bracket after a furious late-game rally to close out Indiana State.
Indiana State guard Isaiah Swope sized his man, retreated his dribble backwards near the halfcourt line, then charged forward to confidently step into a deep three-pointer. The shot swished through the net, the Sycamores held a seven-point lead over Seton Hall in the NIT championship game with just over three minutes to go.
Seton Hall would have to play perfect basketball down to the stretch to pull out the victory. Somehow, they got it done.

Shaheen Holloway’s encouragement of Robbie Avila was the best moment of the NIT championship game.

Those rumors included a shocking idea: That the team would shift to a “zeropod” configuration famously attempted by Mercedes during the 2022 F1 season.

Hailey Van Lith entered the transfer portal after a lackluster year for the reigning champion LSU women’s basketball team, notably after a horrifying performance against Iowa in an elimination loss on Monday.
Van Lith, previously heralded as a star in Louisville after three successful seasons, joined Kim Mulkey’s LSU team, hoping to start a semi-‘superteam’ alongside Angel Reese, Flau’jae Johnson and Aneesah Morrow (a fellow transfer). 
Expectations for Van Lith soared in Baton Rouge, but the outcome fell short of her star-like image.

Don’t get caught up in all the anti-Aaron Rodgers content promoted by the media … they hate to see a laid-back guy who can sling the football thrive.
Rodgers, 40, has been a target for audiences ever since he revealed his position on the vaccine and, after ‘opening his third eye,’ essentially became Joe Rogan with the ability to pass from the pocket.
Since his move to New York and toward the end of his tenure in Green Bay, Rodgers hasn’t been able to catch a break regarding public image.
