Really cool moment tonight postgame after VCU upset UNC. VCU head coach Phil Martelli Jr. made a point to shoutout the student reporters that made the trip.

Lots of great stuff this time of year, but this was a really awesome, genuine exchange.

@TheGoldenRatio4 we’ve got weights in feesh! #fishscandal

[Texas Game Wardens @TexasGameWarden]

On Sunday, March 8, #TexasGameWardens in Wood County were contacted by organizers of the Lake Fork Lure Co. Tournament to investigate a bass presented during weigh-in that raised concerns of possible tampering. The fish was flagged after a metal detecting wand alerted…(1/3)

Last Tuesday, when the Gaudreaus were invited to the Olympics, they declined.

This was Johnny's dream. It felt bittersweet.

But by Wednesday, everything changed.

When I was at ESPN, I was asked to have Jack Hughes write a letter to his future self during his draft year. This passage stands out today... https://t.co/UYVdduvOkw

@kmelkhat That feels like a crime against humanity.

Hey @AmericanAir, how about you get your act together and not change our terminal, let alone the gate, THREE times in 90 minutes? Five gate changes is also ridiculous. Oh, and your notification process stinks too.

@gus26 It was so good! I loved watching those guys watch themselves.

@RealDaveGuttman @xevekiah You honestly think they would have told a man with the same symptoms that it was just anxiety? I will admit the healthcare system is messed up in many ways, but please don’t try to minimize that this is a real problem in care for women.

Twas the night before Christmas
When all through the house
The air conditioner was running
Because you live in the south

@KirkHerbstreit @GoHealthyPaws @FOS So what would it take to get Peter (and you) to stop by the @TTUAlumniAssoc on Friday? Lots of great Texas Tech history in our building for y’all to check out so we can count it “research” for Saturday!

Just a reminder to all my student media friends - UD, DT and LV (yes, we’re celebrating the yearbook too!) - the deadline to purchase tickets for the centennial celebrations is midnight Wednesday (Oct. 15). Join us if you can! https://t.co/4XGNSw2nuK

[Arlington National Cemetery @ArlingtonNatl]

On June 2, 2025, Sergeant of the Guard Sgt. 1st Class Andrew Jay took his final walk as a Tomb Guard at Arlington National Cemetery. In a powerful farewell, he laid roses at each crypt of the Unknown Soldiers, then walked off the plaza hand in hand with his 8-year-old son, Finn.

@gus26 Atta kid, Brax!

@Evcorder @Doylecorder I wasn’t even sure that was in Lubbock until you pointed out the Coliseum. Much too green as far as I’m concerned.

[Texas Tech Alumni Association @TTUAlumniAssoc]
