The Utah Jazz drafted Ace Bailey, Walter Clayton Jr, and John Tonje. Now they’re signing RJ Luis to a two-way. College Basketball’s NBA Team.

John Tonje to the Utah Jazz with the 53rd overall pick. From Omaha Central to the Second Round of the NBA Draft. Won’t be the first time Tonje has gotten to play in purple.

Give me Nique Clifford in either OKC or Boston. For no reason other than my own personal interests.

To summarize Rutgers’ basketball season: Had the No. 2 and No. 5 picks in the NBA Draft on their roster in Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey. Lost their Adidas deal for the entire athletic department because Harper and Bailey wore Nike shoes. Went 15-17. Missed the NCAA Tournament.

Throughout the College World Series, LSU fans turned Omaha into a northern outpost of Baton Rouge. The noise and energy reached their summit as the Tigers did the same on the diamond, embracing and celebrating the moment. #MCWS #ThePowerhouse #GeauxTigers

That shot of Tyrese being helped to the locker room was beyond gut wrenching.

Man… That’s awful. Hell of a playoff run for Tyrese Halliburton. That’s beyond heartbreaking.

Don’t think it’s a coincidence that by far the two most memorable iterations of the College World Series to take place at The Chuck involve LSU being in Omaha and winning the whole thing. Feels like the CWS is a little more fun and a little more memorable when LSU is in town.

Have been made aware that there are multiple people jumping into local radio YouTube streams pretending to be me in the chats. None of these are me. Further evidence that some folks have entirely too much free time on their hands.

Significant Big Ten hoops news for next year. Michigan is going to be a fun team to watch.

Texas A&M’s ability to vastly disappoint and underachieve in every single sport needs to be studied.

It’s astonishing that this Knicks team has overcome Thibs to get to this point with its season. In-game coaching is almost as bad as his hair.

Nebraska baseball shut out No. 13 UCLA to repeat as Big Ten tournament champion, earning the automatic bid the Huskers needed to advance to the NCAA tournament. #Huskers #GBR From Evan Bland:

Nebraska defeats UCLA 5-0 in the Big Ten baseball championship game. Back-to-back Big Ten tournament titles for Will Bolt’s #Huskers in Omaha. A career day for Ty Horn, who threw 8 shutout innings. Nebraska steals an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. What a week.

What a way to make a livin

Have yourself a day Ty Horn. My goodness.

UCLA with some of the better baseball names I’ve seen in awhile in its lineup today. Roch Cholowsky Blake Balsz Cashel Dugger Phoenix Call Landon Stump

Roch Cholowsky is an ELITE baseball name.

Nebraska Baseball with a chance to win the Big Ten Tournament for a second straight year and steal an auto-bid against UCLA. Nebraska Softball in a Super Regional Game 3 against Tennessee in Knoxville. Winner gets a matchup with Oklahoma in OKC. Hell of a Sunday on deck

Nebraska upsets tournament top seed and No. 4 ranked Oregon 7-3 to win Pool A at the Big Ten Baseball Tournament. #Huskers advance to the semi-finals and will take on Penn State later today at Charles Schwab Field.

Absolutely gorgeous baseball uniform matchup this morning in Omaha.

These NBA playoffs continue to deliver. Been an awesome last few weeks of hoops.

So far, so good.

As called by Mark Boyle on Pacers radio:

It was always Tyrese Haliburton.

Turns out that the Indiana Pacers are only involved in batshit crazy basketball games, and I kinda love that.

Currently at an establishment in Omaha where there is a guy a few tables away watching this game in a JJ Barea Timberwolves jersey. Dudes rock.

The opening weekend of the NCAA Softball Tournament has been a blast. Liberty makes history and upsets No. 1 seed Texas A&M. For the first time in NCAA tournament history, the top-seeded team fails to advance out of regional weekend.

Southeastern Louisiana catcher Cydnee Schneider, an Elkhorn South grad and Iowa Western product, drives in a run off of Jordy Bahl. #Huskers lead Southeastern 3-1 after one inning in Baton Rouge.

Knicks vs. Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals is going to be fun as hell.

UPSET: Southeastern Louisiana beats No. 10 National seed LSU 4-3 in Baton Rouge Nebraska will face Southeastern Louisiana tomorrow at noon. LSU will face UConn in the consolation bracket tomorrow afternoon.

The Jordy Bahl Experience is something else. Feels like calling the season she is having special is almost an understatement.

New at FFP: Omaha native Alexander Payne never considered making a sequel to his acclaimed comedy “Election.” But then he heard from Reese Witherspoon and read the follow-up to the original novel, and he quickly changed his mind. Read more 🔗 buff.ly/BL7UL3S

Please enjoy this stock photo the local CBS affiliate chose for a story about traffic this summer

This lottery result happening 40 years TO THE DAY after the 1985 draft lottery where the Knicks got the No. 1 pick in the Patrick Ewing draft makes it even more incredible.

Paige Bueckers and Cooper Flagg, two number one picks playing in the same city. What a time for Dallas.

Imagining this is the current live shot of Nico Harrison, wherever he may be.

THE DALLAS MAVERICKS?!?!?

Nebraska men’s basketball will return to the Sanford Pentagon, this time to face a former conference rival — Oklahoma. #Nebrasketball #Huskers #GBR From @wilsmoore.bsky.social:

Nebrasketball is headed back to the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls for the third straight season. #Huskers will take on Oklahoma on the second football bye week Saturday of the season, November 15th.

Getting set for John Cena vs. Randy Orton in 2025

The new pope is from Chicago and went to Villanova. Welcome to the Big East, Vatican City.

Did somebody say new Pope?
