Ba’Roc Willis has announced a verbal commitment to Alabama. Willis is a sophomore at Moody High School in Alabama and is a member of the 2027 recruiting class. He currently holds offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, LSU and others. He is the first 2027 prospect to commit to Alabama.

They showed a lot of love yesterday, let me know that they wanted me, and it…
There’s no doubt that Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the entire NBA. Doncic led the NBA in scoring for the first time in his career last season, and arguments were made that Doncic was robbed of winning the 2023-24 MVP. Doncic seemingly used not winning MVP as motivation in the 2024 NBA Playoffs, and led the Mavs to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2011. Even though the Mavs didn’t prevail to win the Finals against the Celtics, Doncic will still be an elite player for years. However, there is one problem that a…

The Crimson Tide is getting down to business today with new head coach Kalen DeBoer. Fall training camp is getting underway a month ahead of Alabama’s college football season opener against Western Kentucky.

Offensive Lineman Tyler Booker spoke with the press during SEC Media Days. He says the current team is the most unified he seen since joining the Tide… “Just because we’ve been through an experience together. I’m not gonna say a traumatic…
The Baltimore Ravens are bringing a former Pittsburgh Steelers draft pick back to the AFC North, signing edge rusher Quincy Roche, the team announced. The move came after the Ravens place defensive end Malik Hamm on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury. To make up the roster spot, they’ll bring in Roche, who’s spent time with the Steelers, New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings throughout his short career. At 26-years-old, Roche joins the Ravens with 17 games of experience at the NFL level. All with the Giants, he’s collected 40 tackles, 2.5 sacks five tackles for loss and a…
Milan are still seriously interested in a move for Tammy Abraham and the Roma striker has given his green light for a move to Paulo Fonseca’s side. The Rossoneri already picked up Alvaro Morata earlier this month from Atletico Madrid in a deal worth around €13m, but they’re still open to the idea of picking up a new striker to add a little more firepower to the frontline. In the meantime, Roma are pushing to agree a deal with Girona for Ukrainian Artem Dovbyk, who’ll surely take on the starting spot from Tammy Abraham, pushing the Englishman to consider a move away. West…
After his Mercedes teammate’s car was disqualified from the race, Lewis Hamilton, who had won the Belgian Grand Prix, said he had “mixed feelings” and showed sympathy for Russell. Conversely, Russell called his disqualification for an underweight car after the race “heartbreaking”. The British pair had earlier crossed the finishing line nose-to-nail in a gripping conclusion to the race at Spa-Francorchamps on Sunday having adopted different pit-stop strategies. Russell, who risked on a risky one-stopper after running only fifth through the first stint, gained track position behind Hamilton, who had dominated the race for the first half of the race…
The Orioles had been starting rookie Connor Norby at second base, where Holliday is anticipated to start. Hours before the trade deadline on Tuesday, he was traded to the Miami Marlins for left-hander Trevor Rogers, along with outfielder Kyle Stowers. Jorge Mateo, who was placed on the disabled list last week due to a dislocated elbow, had been replaced by Norby. Mateo split time with Ramon Urias and Jordan Westburg, who share time at third base. After soaring through the minor league ranks, Holliday—the first overall pick in the 2022 draft—was called up on April 10 to become a member…
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are so tough that they could match any football player on the field in terms of toughness. Longstanding squad director and cheerleader from the 1980s, Kelli Finglass, recently told E! News, “It’s a very demanding job and injuries certainly come with dance.” “We have a trainer and we spend more time now with prevention of injuries.” And “it can be quite aerobic,” Finglass continued, in case you missed the hint when 36 ladies are leaping into the air and perfectly performing routines in precise synchrony. “Requires a lot of stamina, a lot of strength and a…
AC Milan are in serious pursuit of Tammy Abraham and could soon ramp up talks with Roma. The English striker is on his way out of the Italian capital, no longer considered a key element of the team’s long-term plans, and has been therefore linked with several other clubs. According to Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sport, out of all the teams that showed interest in him, Abraham stated his preference for AC Milan. The Rossoneri reportedly approached Roma a while ago but with no immediate results. Now, Milan could renew talks as they look to propose a swap involving Luka…
