The NCAA is exploring a significant change to its eligibility rule, per Yahoo Sports’ @RossDellenger. Next week, an NCAA committee will discuss a new age-based standard for athlete eligibility that would grant athletes five full years of eligibility from the time of their 19th birthday or their high school graduation. No waiver requests, redshirts or exceptions will be permitted, except for a small group of outliers (those on maternity leave, military service or religious missions).



It’s actually crazy how much distance Harden covers on his stepback



Someone please explain to me why Tarik Skubal could give the Tigers 61 pitches on Saturday but Team USA NOTHING on Friday or Sunday 🇺🇸


Update on terms: It's the #Texans fourth rounder, OL Juice Scruggs, and a 7th rounder for David Montgomery, per sources. So, fifth-round value. But a complex deal.






RUMOR: Michigan players were apparently caught hotboxing in the locker room, according to an Ohio State site called “Buckeye Scoop.” [Swipe for 🎥] If true this is not a good look at all for the Wolverines and their locker room culture. It’s hard to tell when this took place based on the video, but we are assuming this was recently. Theoretically I guess smoking weed is legal Michigan, but it still shouldn’t be happening in the locker room. Thoughts? 💭

LeBron says it’s harder to play 82 games today than it was in the 80s or 90s: “The way we play with the level of pace and speed we play at, it’s a different game now. It’s a lot of soft tissue injuries now because of it… when I first came in the league the biggest concern for injuries was like a high ankle sprain… Now you see the new high ankle sprain is the calf.” (via @mindthegamepod, h/t @HeatCulture13)
