Twitter’s auto-translate may need to rethink this one, but from now on we’ll definitely be using the phrase: ‘chasing the dream without soup’.

In a league of killers, Jalen Brunson is one of the best winners of his generation. He won two chips at Villanova in three years, and he's made the New York Knicks into NBA champions. At 6-foot-1-ish. He's a great, GREAT basketball player.

Aldon Smith played for the Cowboys in 2020 after a roller-coaster career off the field. It ended up being his final NFL season. Rest in Peace.

NEWS: The Oklahoma Attorney General's office issued a rebuttal letter to the Texas AG's office's letter to the Big 12. Oklahoma AG Gentner Drummond says that the idea that Big 12 may not sanction its members is “facially absurd” and says Texas Tech’s actions have “constituted a shameful chapter in the story of college football.” Per me and @max_olson.

I have yet to see a compelling argument for why a college kid who supposedly is going through a serious mental health crisis and treatment should also be subject to the daily grind of being a college football player
It’s becoming clear that any school other than Texas Tech couldn’t care less about the mental health of their student athletes.

Friendly reminder, he himself voted to rescind the NCAA policy change last year that would have allowed athletes to legally bet on pro sports.
Texas Tech Pres. Lawrence Schovanec, on NCAA gambling rules (Brendan Sorsby) “I think we have to recognize the rules in place now we’re made long before there were millions of young people walking around with a legal gambling apparatus in their pocket” Sorsby bet on Indiana football, basketball and Cincinnati hoops…

The Texas Tech fans have found this tweet and - surprise! - they have no issue with bribery They're also all of counsel attorneys who make $30k a month, because everyone is so much cooler online
Ken Paxton, current Texas AG and Republican nominee for governor, is threatening the Big 12 with legal action if they hold Texas Tech accountable TT mega booster Cody Campbell has also donated $30k to Paxton's campaign. Just connecting the dots for y'all @Echo_Buttes

The Texas Attorney General sent a formal letter to the Big 12 today alerting the conference that Texas Tech would take action against any league sanction.

*senator, not governor Which doesn't change anything about what I said. The point is Campbell is giving lots of money to a guy who is now trying to weaponize the state to serve Tech's interests The office Paxton is running for doesn't change how shady it is

Happy Big 12 Presidents Meet Up Day to all who celebrate @Echo_Buttes
Brett Yormark has already met with Big 12 ADs regarding the Texas Tech/Brendan Sorsby ordeal Yormark will also be meeting with Big 12 presidents on Thursday. Expect something more tangible after that @Echo_Buttes

Look closely and there’s news in here: the Cowboys promoted John Park to Vice President, Football Strategy & Operations. Park is a longtime key figure in football analytics, working for the Colts from 2016-2023 before joining the Cowboys.
Looking forward to today’s conversation at @HowardU with a group of colleagues and friends whom I greatly respect. Grateful to Gregory Gibson Jr. and the @BlackSportsBiz for creating opportunities that bring people together and move our industry forward.
