New A-10 Commissioner Dan Leibovitz on the future of scheduling for the league: "We are open for business to play games against the best conferences. We are already in conversations with other leagues and getting close with another non-conference alliance." #A10MBB

Great story on Nick Nurse, including this Philly hoops nugget

@TheAthletic6h
Philadelphia 76ers coach Nick Nurse was at Carroll National Golf Club when everything changed. It started with an incoming phone call from LeBron James and ended with a decision made two weeks later. Nurse teed up a final act for James and a new beginning for the long-suffering 76ers. Can he deliver? nyti.ms/3UC8tia

An Iowa greenside phone call sold LeBron on Philly. Can Nick Nurse deliver on his pitch? (Gift...

On the rural golf course he saved, the 76ers head coach took the call that altered the NBA. Now comes the hard part.

K.C. Keeler led off his press conference by saying that he's coached more than 400 games in his career and that this one was the most embarrassing one he's ever been involved with, and he said there will be some changes after today.

This is true. Coached Dan in the legendary Narberth League. Also had Bucknell head coach John Griffin and Temple assistant coach Bobby Jordan in that league. All played D1 and I still didn’t win a championship!

Yes, he can. Great call and great run from Sheppard, who just scored on a 34-yard QB draw touchdown run. Hardin's PAT gives Temple a 17-13 lead with 3:08 to go.

Can Ajani Sheppard take Temple 96 yards here?

Joe Mihalich grew up at La Salle. And when he had a stroke in 2020 that robbed him of his voice, it was La Salle that helped him find it again. The school has given him weekly speech therapy, an opportunity to coach, and as he puts it, "a reason to live" inquirer.com/college-sports/…

I’m so tired of the PCSA ads. Can’t stand it. I really don’t understand how they can reasonably ask for an anti-trust exemption from congress without the framework of collective bargaining.

There is absolutely nothing in the PCSA that would protect or otherwise incentivize the creation of programs like FDU Men's Volleyball, a sport that was founded to generate revenue via tuition. It is not threatened by athlete payments. Their peers didn't even opt into House!
