A lifetime ago, in my very first job, I worked as a college admissions dean for my alma mater. We always held admitted students’ visit weekend in April, and I was blown away to learn that the admission staff could predict the “yield” from that event (the share of visitors who’d enroll) based on the forecast. ☀️ = the class might be over-enrolled ☔️ = we might be going to the wait list They were never wrong in their weather-based predictions. I’ve always considered this to be a fascinating indicator about the whole college application endeavor.

I interviewed Robert Redford once. I was walking out after, he told me to come back because he had a question. “I noticed you had some questions written down but never looked at them. Why?” “Oh, if I’m looking at them I’m not listening to what you’re saying.” He smiled and nodded

In Michigan, there is nowhere for talented women to play Division I NCAA hockey. People at the state’s two Big Ten schools would like to see that change. To read full article go to uscho.com/2026/03/04/aft…

Would love to congratulate them by putting our book into the hands of each of them. Showcase the colorful (and sometimes bitter) history of the women's game that started with improbable gold at the Nagano Olympics in 1998. Message me details: how many; where to send. @USAHOCKEY

@usahockey As a Michigander I love this post but how do I get you to give these young ladies from Florida the recognition they deserve?

@JonnyRoot_ They won a gold medal in front of the largest viewership ever for women's hockey. And now you're sharing a video full of pro hockey logos. I think they're promoting the sport just fine.

Instead of accepting the invitation to The White House, using it to promote pro women’s hockey better than they could ever imagine, & becoming the darlings of the nation, Team USA C Hilary Knight is passive aggressively calling out Trump & playing victim

🇺🇸🏒 Forget lectures. Today in class, I had my students call Team USA’s overtime winner. Take a look at my @iumediaschool students absolutely KILL it anchoring their own Olympic sportscast of Team USA beating Canada. Thanks @TeamUSA for the memories & and the assist in educating the next generation of broadcasters. ❤️

Less than a week to go until the application for the Rich Passan Sports Writing Scholarship closes. We're looking for the best college sports reporters in the country and can't wait to give out the inaugural award along with the National Press Club.
Jeff Passan@JeffPassan

My family and I are thrilled to introduce the Rich Passan Sports Writing Scholarship, which will offer $5,000 annually to a college junior or senior. My father was a journalist for 41 years. He passed along that gift to me. Now it's our turn to share it. pressclubinstitute.org/2025/10/24/int…

I have doubts that US Women’s and Men’s 2026 Olympics gold medals will translate into a spike in youth hockey participation over the next two years. Thoughts?
