Still thinking about how a 42 win, conference regular season & tournament champ gets seeded below a team who did neither of those things and was swept by us👍

@KFlahertyKU How cool is this -- we're in Hawaii right now and this would be 5⭐ here!

Tesla Semi's total cost of ownership destroys diesel economics

The numbers are wild:
• Electricity: $0.15-0.25/mile
• Diesel: ~$0.75 - 0.80+/mile

• Electricity costs 60-80% less than diesel per mile
• Near-zero maintenance (no diesel aftertreatment, fewer moving parts)
• Remote diagnostics = maximized uptime
• OTA updates = continuous improvements
• Operators will spend less time at service centers and more time on the road

Fleet operators achieve positive ROI before their standard diesel replacement cycle

Congratulations to a great guy, and golfer, Gary Woodland, on his big win today in the Texas Children’s Houston Open. He shot 21 under par! What a GREAT comeback from a serious health problem he has achieved. Gary is a total WINNER!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP

My NIL bill is simple.

You get five consecutive years to play five seasons with one free transfer. If you choose to transfer again, you sit out a year.

Proud to be leading the charge to SAVE COLLEGE SPORTS.

Gary Woodland revealed he had a moment this week where people behind the ropes got too close to him and he got hypervigilant.

"I'll tell you this, if it wasn't for Tour security and my security, Zach, this week, there's no way I'm sitting here right now. I was a wreck the last 10 holes of that day. I got into scoring, Zach got close to me, Tour security was visual so I saw them so they calmed me down. I got into scoring, I bawled my eyes out, I reset and was able to come back out and take care of stuff after.

"Coming out, talking and asking for help, I didn't do that last year. I didn't do that early this year. If I wouldn't ask Tour security, they wouldn't have been there for me like that. I'm extremely thankful for them."

Le prince héritier d’Iran en exil, Reza Pahlavi :

« Nous sommes, en tant qu’Iraniens, les descendants de Cyrus qui, il y a 25 siècles, a libéré les esclaves juifs à Babel et les a aidés à reconstruire le Temple à Jérusalem.

Je pense que l’Iran et Israël sont les deux seuls pays au monde qui peuvent dire qu’ils ont une relation biblique.

N’oublions pas que dans l’époque moderne, l’Iran était le seul pays qui a donné asile aux Juifs qui s’enfuyaient du régime des nazis et d’Hitler pendant la deuxième Guerre mondiale. »

Voilà pourquoi, en tant que Juifs, nous avons le devoir moral d’être aux côtés de nos frères iraniens et de les aider à retrouver la liberté.

Très bientôt, nous danserons ensemble dans les rues de Tel Aviv et de Téhéran !

Vive l’amitié entre le peuple juif et le peuple iranien ! 💛

Here was #Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson's full answer about the impact #Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy had on Chicago's offense last season - but not just as RB coach:

"He brings a demanding presence. The standard is the standard with Eric Bieniemy. Those are big shoes to fill."

[Vince Lovergine @Vince_Lovergine]

This was back in February 2024 when Bill Self and Kelvin Sampson met up at Allen Fieldhouse for the first time.

There's been games since then but an old memory to look back at. #kubball

[Rock Chalk Blog @RockChalkBlog]

23 years and there still is yet to be a coach to beat Bill Self twice at Allen Fieldhouse. That's one of the most absurd stats I've ever seen.

Almost as absurd as the fact that 41 teams have had the chance to beat him there on Big Monday and exactly 0 have succeeded.

[Noah Sacco @NoahSaccoTV]

Bill Self says Darryn Peterson will play vs. Cincinnati while defending him from national criticism:

"He hasn't finished games... bottom line is there's a way to change the narrative. Play. Finish. That's the way to get people to quit talking."

[Jeff Goodman @GoodmanHoops]

There have been 15 Top 10 games at Allen Fieldhouse where Kansas wasn’t the higher ranked team in the Bill Self Era.

Bill Self’s record: 15-0.
