Jared Goff, the quarterback for the Detroit Lions, isn’t worried about Skip Bayless as he gets ready to play the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship this coming weekend. On Tuesday, Goff began his weekly appearance with noon presenters Doug Karsch and Scott Anderson on 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit. When the interview was coming to a finish, the quarterback was asked if the team cared about bulletin content. Depends what it is, whatd’ya got?” Goff asked. But before Karsch could even finish uttering the name “Skip Bayless,” Goff quickly dismissed the FS1 debate host. “Nah, I don’t care…

Nofoaluma’s career with the Tigers comes to an agonizing conclusion; in 192 games for the Concord club, he scored 100 tries. At the conclusion of the 2022 NRL season, the 30-year-old was leased out to the Melbourne Storm, but not before he was allegedly informed by new Wests head coach Benji Marshall that he would not play first-grade for the team ever again. That led to Nofoaluma taking the alleged comments to the Rugby League Players’ Association (RLPA) as the winger took legal advice over the issue. He then refused to train with the Tigers which was seen as the…

Because of the veterans on their roster, the Detroit Lions have some big-game experience even if the franchise has never made it to the Super Bowl. With running back Jake Funk on their practice squad, the Lions suddenly have another player with Super Bowl experience. On January 23, the Lions declared that Funk and offensive tackle Matt Farniok had been added to their practice squad. In tandem, the Lions placed running back Jermar Jefferson on the practice squad/injured list and dismissed linebacker Raymond Johnson. Funk has played in 20 games during his three-year NFL career.

For months now, it has been obvious that the Green Bay Packers will be parting ways with five-time All-Pro left tackle David Bakhtiari this offseason. In the event that Green Bay trades, or more likely cuts, Bakhtiari this offseason, the team will have to decide whether to attempt to bolster the left side of its offensive line through the NFL draft or switch full-time to Rasheed Walker, a seventh-round pick in 2022, at a premium position. Mel Kiper Jr., an ESPN draft expert, supports the latter. In his first official mock draft, which was released on Tuesday, January 23, he…

Jim Harbaugh flirts a lot, and he does it often enough for Michigan to be able to prepare for his departure. Athletic director Warde Manuel would not be surprised if Harbaugh closes a deal to rejoin the Los Angeles Chargers. According to NFL Network, Manuel made Harbaugh an offer to sign a $125 million, ten-year contract before the Wolverines won the national championship earlier this month. The writing might have been on the wall when Harbaugh opted not to sign the contract and interviewed with the Atlanta Falcons and Chargers. He would add to the list of seismic shifts on…

During the 2023–24 college football season, elite programs rose to prominence and fell from grace. A team like Florida State was brought back to life in the ACC after years of dominating the league. The Clemson Tigers were the ACC leaders at the time. Although Clemson football has been regarded as one of the best programs for the last ten years, something appears to be changing. According to Grace Raynor at The Athletic, head coach Dabo Swinney is up against teams that have made NIL agreements and transfer portal targets their top priorities, transforming college football into a contemporary free-agent…

The Philadelphia Phillies said on Tuesday afternoon that they have acquired Kolby Allard, a left-handed pitcher. Allard inked a split contract with Matt Gelb of The Athletic that guarantees him $375,000 and adds $125,000 in incentives. Should Allard pitch in the majors, the pact would be worth $1 million. Allard will participate in major league Spring Training and be included on the 40-man roster. Allard has one minor-league option left, so the Phillies won’t lose him if he doesn’t make the 26-man roster for Opening Day. Across 69 career MLB appearances — 38 of which have been starts — Allard…

Another UGA has left Georgia. The University of Georgia said that “Que,” the former Georgia football mascot who had reigned as Uga X, passed away quietly at home on Tuesday morning. He was ten years old. Prior to the Bulldogs’ game versus Georgia Southern on November 21, 2015, Que, a pure white English bulldog like all the other Georgia mascots, was “collared” as Uga X. Due to his deteriorating health, he retired after the 2022 season, making him one of the most accomplished mascots in UGA football history in terms of on-field achievements. Under Uga X’s watch, the Bulldogs won…

Even though it’s only January, planning for the 2024 college football season is never too early.

For junior day last Saturday, the Florida Gators had a number of elite prospects on campus, including two very promising tight end possibilities. 2025 close end While on campus, Micah Jones (6-5, 225, Madison, MS. Central) relished the unique visitation experience he had with the coaching staff on junior day.
