They all followed a shoeless Allen Iverson, a modern-day, heavily tattooed Pied Piper who has aged more than anyone would care to acknowledge.
Then came two hours of McCaffrey lining up in just about every formation and position imaginable, from the backfield to the slot, giving the Panthers’ offense a blank canvas with a full palette of weapons and possibilities.
This year, an unprecedented wave of top high school seniors waited until at least May to commit.

When they were on the clock late in the second hour of the draft, Kentucky guard Malik Monk was still in the green room.
“Me going undrafted, that was honestly the best thing for my basketball career. Everybody wants to be drafted on draft night. That’s everybody’s goal, but it really don’t matter when it comes down to it."
Here's our evaluation of which college teams are the winners and losers of the major stay-or-go NBA Draft decisions this offseason.

"I think that for my safety and my future – I'm not going to the NFL – I need my brain. So that was the decision."
At halftime, Isiah Thomas stepped up to the mic at midcourt and told the crowd, “We want coach Knight to come home.”

The more lasting image of Anunoby from the game will be him being helped off the court late in the game, unable to put any weight on his left leg.
The bowl game will be the Hoosiers' first game under recently named head coach Tom Allen, who was promoted from defensive coordinator on Thursday following Kevin Wilson's resignation.

“It was initially us and the Ravens, but times have changed. Everybody knows the Cincy rivalry has turned into a different animal, and it’ll be much anticipated this year.”
Penn State football is experiencing deja vu by the masses as starters at entire position groups have been wiped out — at least temporarily — because of injury this season.
Four inches and 40 throws.
That’s the quantifiable difference between Penn State quarterbacks Trace McSorley and Tommy Stevens, who are battling for the Nittany Lions’ starting job this fall to begin the post-Christian Hackenberg era. For some players, the characters and experiences depicted on-screen in their favorite baseball movies run parallel to their own lives and positions on the field.

Penn State escaped Memorial Stadium Saturday with a come-from-behind 45-31 win against an upset-minded Indiana team seeking bowl eligibility.
“You have to have the Holy Spirit, you got to be a [expletive] devil, you got to be a demon, you got to be intelligent and you got to be a con artist. All them in one. You add that together, now you got a real guy.”
“When I walk into these places and hear stories, it just hits my heart because I have a son, and he’s healthy. For these young kids to go through things like this, and they’re not really in the best condition, it hits me.”
“It’s just something I’m not used to, like how we’re going to get to the course tomorrow is going to be a struggle because we’ve got to dodge thousands of fans. That’s something I’ve got to figure out when I’m done here.”

Two teams — the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres — have taken the trend to the next level, adding permanent dog-friendly seating areas to their ballparks. But that next step in MLB’s mutt-friendly movement is far from a permanent fixture.
The Euro 2016 semifinal matchup today between France and Germany will have ramifications in Pittsburgh, where French wine or German beer will change hands depending on the result.

Sports Illustrated
In the spring of 2016, I interned with Sports Illustrated in New York City through The Media School at Indiana University. My responsibilities include pitching, researching, writing and fact-checking stories in association with the SI Wire team, blogging about college basketball (including SI's NCAA Tournament previews and remote game coverage) and assisting with special projects such as curating historic magazine cover stories for the SI Vault, captioning photos for SI's Super Bowl Photo Museum and researching NASCAR statistics in advance of the Daytona 500.

Indiana daily student
After joining the Indiana Daily Student during my first semester at Indiana University, I covered both the IU football and men's basketball team's successful and unsuccessful pursuits of postseason eligibility, IndyCar driver Tony Kanaan's first Indianapolis 500 victory, the months-long recovery of the Village Deli -- a local eatery that caught fire in January 2015, and the Bloomington Police Department's implementation of body cameras. In my time with the IDS, I was a sports editor, men's basketball beat reporter, football beat reporter, sports features writer, police beat reporter, Indianapolis 500 beat reporter and women's tennis beat reporter. Those positions provided me opportunities and experience writing game stories, feature stories and briefs on deadline, while also experimenting with multimedia coverage through video, live-Tweeting and podcasting.
"Ten weeks after he held his mother for the last time, Jeff Jones was back on his bike."
"The manager said the employees thought it was burnt toast.
Costello knew it wasn’t." "The sun hasn’t risen yet, leaving Kirkwood Avenue in partial darkness.
A street lamp illuminates the entrance to the Village Deli, reopening at 7 a.m. — 82 days after a fire closed the restaurant indefinitely." |
"Brash, and not for the faint of heart, roller derby is unlike any other sport.
It's a giant game of cat and mouse on skates, like an hour-long episode of 'Tom and Jerry,' except with more violence. The catch is that each team gets to be the hunter and the hunted — at the same time." “That’s always good to know that Indiana basketball has left its long-standing mark on Coach Mike Krzyzewski.”
"A dichotomy exists in the implementation of body cameras. While the function and use of the cameras are relatively simple, the implications and surrounding issues of their use are more complex."

the madison courier
When I received an internship offer from The Madison Courier, I had never been to Madison, Ind. and when I arrived, I didn't know anyone within 50 miles of my new home. So, what's the best way to get acclimated with a foreign town as a new intern?
By meeting the people, and then telling their stories -- like those of 11-year-old 4-H'er Matthew Douglas, who was unable to show his chickens at the local county fair due to a state poultry ban; U.S. Air Force veteran Mike McClure, who organized a community forum to discuss the shooting death of a local teen -- but no one showed up; and Dave Snodgrass, an 11-year veteran of Madison's Fair Play Fire Company 1 -- the oldest volunteer fire company in the state -- who was the captain of the winning Waterball team. Below, you'll find these stories and several other of my best clips from my time with The Courier.
