I opened a package from @FWAA to find something worth its weight in gold! My other awards will have to make room for this one. @MSU_Football @NFFNetwork @MSUComArtSci @drivewithjack #True1960sPioneers Thx so much to all the judges. https://t.co/eVkkFnp837

My features in @newsobserver on top players in Triangle resume Thursday online and Friday in print. This one on @RamsFootballNC 4-star RB Amir Brown. Story on him and his team, but we also discussed his Wednesday decision to decommit from @UNCFootball https://t.co/Yz160dHxen

Great talk from @UNC_Basketball assist hoop coach Sean May at Raleigh Sports. Insight on hoop, funny stories on Bobby Knight & Roy Williams. When discussing older coaches adapting to era of NIL/revenue sharing, said nobody has done it better than @MSU_Basketball coach Tom Izzo.

Great Tiger, Great San Diegian (Kearny High), Great guy.

The gang is live talking football Scott and Candy Morganroth @MarvinonThaMic @BenTroupe84 Mel Farr Jr @Shanny4055 https://t.co/qOAdY8HJBg

My story on @NDFootball legend Terry Hanratty entering @cfbhall and how the 1966 Irish and @MSU_Football players are forever linked through the 1966 Game of the Century. The @NFF honors Hanratty on Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium for the @uscfb game. https://t.co/C5MzSZnnHw

I've heard @CFBHeather say twice her @HeismanTrophy vote is @CanesFootball DL Rueben Bain. Bravo. Where were Heather Dinich voters in 1966? @MSU_Football George Webster and Bubba Smith not in Top 10 vote but 2 from segregated teams were. George/Bubba led 1 of CFB great defenses.

Old athletes and actors eventually pass on, but I don't think I've ever been as crushed by the death of an actress like I was learning Diane Keaton, 79, is gone. RIP, Annie Hall of Chippewa Falls.

I love remaining connected to the newspaper business thru my weekly freelance features for the @newsobserver on top players in the Triangle. I caught up last night w/2 @RamsFootballNC players I've written about past 3 seasons: @UNCFootball commits @JaydenGH_ (L) and @ZavionGH.

A lot of excuses from @KirkHerbstreit, Saban and Howard on @CollegeGameDay about giving Belichick, 73, time to build program but no insight on what went wrong. Issue is Bill thinking he could run college like NFL coach. Also, Belichick no Lombardi as I explain at end of story.

The disconnect beween Bill Belichick as a college coach @UNCFootball and his father's coaching legacy @NavyFB @theACC @Patriots https://t.co/Nko0turzQP

First, @ESPNfirst gives us an enlightened story about @alexisohanian and women's @Athlos pro track circuit. Fascinating insight. Then we have to suffer through a promotion about some fake wrestling event. They're actors co-opting the true sport of wrestling. Pathetic.

My latest @newsobserver story on top players from The Triangle is on Southeast Raleigh High's @Keysaun11. He's bound for @StanfordFball thanks to some Luck-- as in Andrew. @NCHSAA https://t.co/Yz160dHxen

Check out 10-7-25 @TribuneSouth. Retired @NFL players @MelFarrJr & @ Marvin Powell III featured. W/fall of @UNCFootball, I say stop calling Belichick GOAT. Record doesn't compare to Vince Lombardi, a teacher at HS & college levels prior to @NFL titles. https://t.co/LkAmRsHeG7

Attn @hulu If you want compelling @UNCFootball story, contact my me & our doc team. In 1964 @MSU_Football 1st fully integrated team to play in South in game v. Heels in segregated Chapel Hill. Lost to history b/c 1960s sports media avoided race. Watch: https://t.co/epvURqSrx8

The hoop season opener is a month away, but in an era of restrictive media access, @UNC_Basketball shows trust in newcomers Jonathan Powell and Derek Dixon. @theACC https://t.co/ZWbDWrhHNH
