In explaining his decision to leave Ole Miss for LSU, Lane Kiffin seems willing to invoke Ole Miss's struggle to distance itself from symbols like the Confederate flag, Colonel Rebel, and the nickname "Ole Miss" itself. When he was coaching there, Kiffin says, top recruits would tell him, “‘Hey, coach, we really like you. But my grandparents aren’t letting me move to Oxford, Mississippi.’ That doesn’t come up when you say Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Parents were sitting here this weekend saying the campus’s diversity feels so great: ‘It feels like there’s no segregation’” vanityfair.com/news/story/lan…

@FOS Did CBS lose its copy of the Masters theme song? Sounded like we were listening to a buffalo roundup while Nantz was talking.

You Make The Call: Buccaneers rookie DB Shilo Sanders was ejected for throwing a punch at Bills TE Zach Davidson. The play was whistled over and Davidson continued to maul Sanders! Should the Ref have called a penalty on Davidson first? Here’s both angles. What do you think? 🤔

Hey @YESNETWORK What is that blasted bass drum constantly booming in the background on your telecast from Texas? It's not on the Rangers' broadcast. Please stop it. It's irritating and useless.

@Laura_Britt_ Nevermind. The Athletic asked him. "They quoted him as saying: “You know when I load how my bat touches my helmet? There was some pine tar on the label. It was sticking. I couldn’t load the way I wanted to."
