DARIUS ACUFF JR. JUST GAVE US THE FIRST REAL LOOK AT HIS NCAA GAME TRANSLATING TO THE NBA.
After a rough debut, the Sacramento rookie exploded for 33 points against Portland in only his second NBA game.
What matters isn’t simply that he scored 33. It’s how familiar the role looked.
At Arkansas last season, Acuff ranked in the 99th percentile in scoring and PIR, 98th in assists, 97th in usage and 94th in AST% among qualifying NCAA guards.
In other words: he was already used to carrying possessions, creating his own offense and creating for others.
The NBA efficiency is obviously going to take time. Against Portland he shot 10/26 overall and 2/10 from three, but he also got to the line 12 times and made 11, kept attacking after a difficult start and nearly helped Sacramento erase a double-digit deficit late.
That’s the part of college production you want to see translate: the ability to generate offense against better athletes without becoming passive.
Two NBA games is nothing.
But going from 12 points in Game 1 to 33 in Game 2 is one hell of a response.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

An @ArkRazorbacks fan saw my last few research articles and asked "what about baseball?"
I almost ignored it. I'm glad I didn't.
@RazorbackBSB reached the 2025 College World Series semifinals and earned more from tickets than any public-school team outside football and basketball.
It still lost $3.14 million.
A thread on who pays for whom at Arkansas, built on FY2025 NCAA financial reports 🧵

Mike Tomlin coached the Steelers for 19 straight seasons without a single losing record. The whole time, he was quietly building a Minecraft city that almost nobody outside his house had ever seen.
He started it around 2014, when his kids were young. His reasoning was simple. "How do I meet them where they are and spend time with them?" So the most stoic man on an NFL sideline learned to place blocks.
Then the kids grew up. The city didn't stop.
Think about the schedule math here. He held the hardest job in football longer than any active coach, won a Super Bowl at 36, went 193-114-2, and still kept coming back to the same save file for 12 years. One world. One city. Through four Steelers quarterback eras.
The part that gets me is who pushed him to finally reveal it. His oldest son, the kid he originally picked up the game for, is the one telling him "Dad, you gotta share this with the world."
He built the city to get into his kids' world. Twelve years later, his kids are the ones bringing it into ours.

If Texas A&M had never fired Kevin Sumlin and they continued giving him $2 million raises every 4 years and he kept his 66.2% win percentage, the Aggies today would have saved $102 million and had two more wins 👀

While we are at it, let’s go ahead and make this for all politicians on both sides of the aisle as well.

Let's fill Maverik Stadium today. It's another edition of 'Win Scotty's Tickets'.
These are my tickets from my account and let's all celebrate the opening game together.
It's first come first serve. You want those tickets, just let me know. I'll give a pair away while supplies last.
Couple things:
- If you win, you'd better be ready to attend the game. A no show on winning tickets is no bueno.
- Be ready to respond to a DM. I'll give you about 15 minutes or so and then I'll move on to someone else.
- Send me a pic from your seats and I'll retweet it.

Our guys come back to visit and the first thing they do is get a workout with Coach Chin! Two gym rats that absolutely love playing the game of basketball.
Their hard work is what built their self confidence and belief which is otherworldly and unbreakable!!
They are excited to go support football today and see the fans!

Kylian Mbappé on why he refuses to promote sports betting:
“Sports betting is destructive. It has ruined the lives of some people I know. That's why I refused to appear in sports betting advertisements. Many of us come from the suburbs, and it destroys the lives of countless people there.”
A powerful stance from one of football's biggest stars.
