If the Bears select Caleb Williams, they have the option to select a more seasoned backup quarterback from among the many potentials with differing degrees of track record. The Bears’ quarterback question consumes all of my attention. But soon, there might be another one picking at them. The Bears will have another issue if they determine that dealing Justin Fields is the best course of action. Not one, but two quarterbacks will be required. Caleb Williams would be one, of course. They would then require one more. This isn’t necessarily in favour of the Andy Dalton/Fields or Mike Glennon/Mitchell…

After glancing at Ole Miss’s roster in April of last year, Mike Bianco realised something had to happen in Oxford. To revive Swayze Field, Bianco, in a way, borrowed a leaf from Lane Kiffin’s offseason playbook. With the support of seven transfers, the Rebels begin the new season on Friday in Honolulu against Hawaii in a four-game series. With their demonstrated track records against previous institutions, all seven players should be good starting points for a chance to make it back to the postseason. Bianco, who will play with the Rebels for a record 24 seasons, wasn’t immediately sold on…

For the 2024 season, Keston Hiura, a former ninth overall draft choice of the Milwaukee Brewers, has chosen a new home. The Brew Crews were home to the UC Irvine product for seven years, and he made big league appearances in 2019 and 2022. He was designated for assignment before the previous season began, and he played in the minor levels the entire time. He was not allowed to choose free agency until the end of the season since he did not have enough MLB service time and was dropped from the 40-man roster for the first time last spring.…

Georgia Football will replace another coach this offseason. The announcement was made on Wednesday. Scott Cochran will leave his role as Georgia’s special teams coordinator to pursue other possibilities. Kirk Benedict, who has served as a special teams analyst for the past two seasons, will now be the coordinator. Smart hired Cochran in 2020 to be the special teams coordinator. Cochran was a well-known strength and conditioning coach in collegiate football during his time at Alabama. But Cochran wanted to be more active on the field, and Smart provided him an opportunity that Saban did not. Later that summer, in…

Keston Hiura, a former infielder with the Milwaukee Brewers, has signed a minor-league contract with the Detroit Tigers. When Hiura returns to Lakeland on Monday, he will be the 19th non-roster invitee and 59th player in the Tigers’ camp. Hiura, 27, played second base with the Brewers for a portion of his four seasons in the major leagues before switching to first base. He was a corner outfielder in the past as well. Hiura was a unanimous top-20 prospect entering the 2019 season after being selected in the first round of the 2017 draft, ninth overall, out of UC-Irvine. Despite…

With their first-round selection in 2023, the Buffalo Bills selected tight end Dalton Kincaid, who immediately established himself as a favourite target for quarterback Josh Allen and broke records for rookie pass-catchers within the organisation. However, veteran tight end Dawson Knox may find himself in a difficult situation as a result of Kincaid’s quick rise, and one insider thinks Knox may wind up being used as trade bait this offseason. The Miami Dolphins may be interested in Knox, who has shown to be a potent red-zone target despite occasionally struggling with health, according to Bleacher Report’s Joe Tansey. Dawson Knox…

In ten days, the NFL Combine will take place in Indianapolis, and the Arizona Cardinals and other teams in the league will be preparing. That will allow plenty of time for the rumour mill to get things going, but let’s move on to the next ESPN 2024 NFL Mock Draft for the time being. This one is on E$PN+, of course, and comes from Field Yates. Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. Few choice projections are as clear-cut as this one, as the Cardinals, who are desperate for wide receivers, have a chance to choose both my top-ranked wideout…

An industry usually changes slowly over time. There are hints along the way, little moments that stack up over time, that something is approaching. Personalised, these moments might be fleeting. But all together, they have the power to alter everything. These are the little moments in business that get bigger. They ultimately turn into a trend, and that trend finally becomes the standard. College football as a business is suddenly seeing a number of developments, but none are more intriguing than the unexpected exodus of coaches in search of better offers. That may seem odd given the significance of…

Sal Frelick, an outfielder with the Milwaukee Brewers, is reportedly the San Diego Padres’ top target in trade negotiations. The following is from “The Athletic’s” Dennis Lin: Adam Duvall and Michael A. Taylor, who can both play centre field, are among the remaining free agents. League sources claim that Jarren Duran of the Boston Red Sox and Sal Frelick of the Milwaukee Brewers are two outfielders that have come up in the Padres’ trade talks. Those two players are manageable, still quite young, and perhaps hard to come by. The Padres were reportedly interested in Duran, but we had never…

In a 68-64 victory over Utah in Pac-12 play on Thursday night in Los Angeles, Joshua Morgan blocked Deivon Smith’s tying layup attempt with six seconds left. The Trojans’ Boogie Ellis missed the front end of a one-and-one situation with 11.5 seconds left, but Smith drove the other way and appeared to have a clean path for a layup before Morgan slid over and blocked the shot. DJ Rodman grabbed the rebound and wentIsaiah Collier led USC with 15 points and three steals. Rodman scored 12 points, Ellis added 11 points and a game-high four steals, while Morgan blocked four…
