Theuerkauf’s hot hand lifts Lady Bulldogs

Rylie Theuerkauf is making waves for Georgia’s undefeated Lady Bulldogs, and her shooting has been next-level lately. After transferring from Wake Forest, she’s not just scoring—she’s sinking nearly half her 3-pointers and thriving in a deep, talented backcourt. What stands out is how she credits her confidence and growth to the team’s tight bond and the extra practice she’s put in since arriving in Athens. It’s not just about points; she’s embracing defense, too. With so many sharpshooters on the roster, defenses can’t keep up. How far do you think this chemistry and firepower can take the Lady Bulldogs this season? #Sports #Basketball #LadyBulldogs

Carthage’s football dynasty rolls on in Texas

Carthage just cemented its place as the most dominant high school football program in Texas, grabbing its 11th state title since 2008 with a 49-21 win over West Orange-Stark. The Bulldogs jumped ahead just 30 seconds in and never looked back, with standout performances from seniors like KJ Edwards (153 rushing yards, 2 TDs) and Jett Surratt (232 passing yards, 3 TDs) in his final game under his legendary coach—and dad—Scott Surratt. With this kind of legacy, do you think anyone can stop Carthage next year? What does this level of success mean for Texas high school football? #Sports #Football #TexasFootball

Should Michigan Target Vandy’s Clark Lea?

With the usual suspects like DeBoer and Dillingham out, Joel Klatt just threw a curveball—he’s hyping Clark Lea, the Commodores’ turnaround artist, as Michigan’s next head coach. Sure, Lea’s a Vandy guy through and through, but his drama-free, winning seasons are hard to ignore. Could he really leave his alma mater for the Wolverines? This could be a rivalry move for the ages if Michigan pulls it off. #Sports #Football #MichiganFootball

Kenny Dillingham’s next move has Tempe buzzing

Kenny Dillingham’s wild turnaround at Arizona State has everyone in Tempe on edge—after leading the Sun Devils from a 3-9 start to a Big 12 title and a College Football Playoff run, he’s now being eyed by Michigan for their head coach spot.

It’s a tense moment for Sun Devil fans: can ASU keep their star coach, or will Dillingham be lured away? How much does loyalty matter when the stakes (and paychecks) get this high? #Sports #Football #ArizonaState
