In my final piece for the @dailyorange , I sign off as a sports journalist, a title I’ve always held in some official capacity since the beginning of my sophomore year of high school.

Here’s what it meant to me: https://t.co/k5Mq2WCljN

As for Duke, I am not concerned at all. 19-57 from 2, 6-26 from three. Yes, a lot of that is the Spartans but I’d be shocked if they had a game like this again. Scheyer will dial in his rotation more and the freshmen will get a whole lot better, too.

What an absolutely incredible performance by Michigan State.

Was lower on them because of their frontcourt questions but it hasn’t mattered at all, they’re so sound and physical on both ends of the floor.

Storms Madness is back! Today we’re discussing Illinois’ offense looking unstoppable, the rise of UCLA, Purdue’s early struggles, and more.

What a game and such a huge win for Valpo! Getting a win at Mackey Arena is never easy even against what is clearly a much more flawed Purdue team than usual.

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Holy Valpo!

UConn gonna UConn. What a run to end the half, they’re looking as good as advertised.

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

His Hart Trophy run is gonna be legendary

JACK HUGHES TWO GOALS IN UNDER A MINUTE 😮

Watch Oilers-Devils on Disney+, ESPN+, Hulu and the ESPN App 👀

UCLA-Zona is such a fun game, college basketball is truly the best

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

College Basketball is back so I wrote a 7,000+ word season preview predicting how the top 25 will shake out in April.

See why I feel confident Duke, not Florida, should be the championship favorite, who my Final Four picks are, and more.

I must declare that “Hands On Me” by Maisie Peters is an absolute pop masterpiece. Can’t stop listening to it.

Hellebuyck looked checked out on the Jets and clearly didn’t want to be there while simultaneously looking unstoppable for the US team in the Olympics. I’m pretty skeptical that he’s washed. But even 75% of what he was in years past makes the Devils a contender.

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Late with my Twitter takes on this but I am a HUGE fan of this deal.

Cap hit isn’t that bad with the cap raising soon. Is arguably the top goalie in league and even a down version of him is miles better than the Devils recent goaltending!

[New Jersey Devils @NJDevils]

RAISE HELLE!

Connor Hellebuyck is a New Jersey Devil: https://t.co/HCehRGOQI5

And all it cost them was:
- Prospect who will maybe be a second liner in 3 years
- League average middle six forward
- Goalie who has not popped in any of his chances so far
- Journeyman not even in the lineup

They didn’t even use any of their upcoming first rounders!

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

The details are impeccable

[NEW YORK KNICKS @nyknicks]

this one’s for you, new york 🏆

Yes it’s an exhibition and yes Tennessee is a team of transfer all-stars that have a long way to go chemistry-wise. But this Duke team is so ridiculously loaded. Perfect blend of everything you want in a modern CBB team.

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Been working on my preseason predictions and upset that my belief that Duke >>> Florida might no longer be a contrarian take after this lol

[Duke Men’s Basketball @DukeMBB]

70-38 at the under 16 👀👿

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Brewers are such an awesome story and even better to see the Dodgers get SWEPT lmao

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Shoutout to the Commanders (on behalf of the Giants) for tying in the absolutely funniest way humanly possible lol

[Eric Storms @eric__storms]

Shoutout to the Eagles for losing in the absolutely funniest way humanly possible lol
