Brad Stevens shares his non-negotiables for life. "I wanna enjoy who I'm working with. I wanna enjoy where I'm working. I wanna have a goal, but I also wanna enjoy the journey of getting to that goal." "For me, it starts with being a great teammate. That is something I look for in people. Those relationships are probably the most important thing." It starts with the people and the character of those people. Then he explained what it means to show up every day: "You put your signature on your work every day. You give it everything you have." "You do it for the good of the whole. You do it to get better at your own job. You do it to improve the whole and see where the chips may fall." It means giving your best effort and bringing a mindset of excellence to yourself and your team. "I've been lucky enough to be on really good teams. Teams that have had chances to play for things that are really, really special." Then he shared what stays with you: "Very rarely when you look back on those teams - whether at Butler or here - do you think about the individual games or even the moments of the games." "You think about the people and the individual times with the people." "That's the special part about being a part of a sports team. That's why you walk through the building every day." The relationships always stay. Stevens' wisdom is simple: it comes down to character. • Be a great teammate. • Strive for excellence. • Enjoy the people and the process. Character isn't what you say - it's what you do consistently. (🎥 Way of Champions)

Rare for LS to be captain, let alone at the premier leadership institution in the world. #prouddad @KnightTEMPO

Hero Principal Kirk Moore—who tackled a school shooter at Pauls Valley High School in Oklahoma is crowned prom king! This man deserves a raise! Hero.

@North2North @MLB 0-107 in 198 non-winning quality starts. find a recent Cy Young winner w 198 total quality starts, let alone 198 non win qs. 8-16 record in 1987 when he lead the major leagues in ERA and strikeouts. Astros scored 27 runs in those 16 games. Lacked support his whole career.

Nolan Ryan had an era of 5,60 in his losses so the nonsense he had no run support is somewhat true but he also had bad games as you can see .5.60 . @MLB

Tonight's roster breakdown for Friday Knight Lights.

Maher: “The president had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force because he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest.” Schiff: “Totally vague.” Maher: “That’s from Obama about Libya.”

@MowZ13 @Pantagraph Congrats!

I love Hurley’s offense. Win or lose no one runs better set plays to get their best players the most shots. Coincidence or perhaps the reason his teams do so well in NCAA tourney? Combination of open flow offense with old school set plays.

@tjposey22 @BQuillmanQcast @IWUBasketball Everyone wanted to check out the Pride of Prairie Central!

@BQuillmanQcast @IWUBasketball @BQuillmanQcast I tell you you that 1994-1997 IWU averaged over 2000 during those years and yes 2850 at one game and over 3000 in final home game 1996? Is there anyway to look it up and verify? I’m pretty sure though.

In 2025-26, @IWUBasketball had higher attendance per game than 4 Illinois NCAA D1s and every NCAA D2 and NAIA in the state. -Illinois Wesleyan (D3) = 1,336 -Northern Illinois (D1) = 1,129 -Eastern Illinois (D1) = 1,127 -Western Illinois (D1) = 681 -Quincy (D2) = 407 -Lewis (D2) = 388 -Illinois-Springfield (D2) = 325 -McKendree (D2) = 275 -Roosevelt (D2) = 244 -Chicago State (D1) = 215 -Judson (NAIA) = 165 -Olivet Nazarene (NAIA) = 159 -St. Francis (NAIA) = 131 -Governors State (NAIA) = 93 -Trinity Christian (NAIA) = 20 -St. Xavier (NAIA) = (attendance not reported) #d3hoops #whyd3

@Bottorff44 You should have seen it in the 1 class days. You couldn't get a ticket inside Market Square Arena.

How can Indiana have this kind of crowd in state finals we can’t in Illinois?

Sign of respect...my boys did a lot on the court to make me proud, but I was never more proud then when I would watch them, after a win or a loss, take a few minutes to clean up the water bottles/cups and throw them away, win or loss. @OwenWalter19 @aidenwalter22 @ProspectHoops

The moment we’ve been waiting for. @Dodgers

From precise stone setting to the final polish, each step is driven by an unwavering commitment to quality. @Dodgers

Tom Izzo shares an uncomfortable truth about earning your spot. "You play real good, you start. You don't play as good, you work your way back in." "That's the American way - except America has gotten soft." You don't get what you want in life - you get what you earn. It starts with showing up and earning it every single day. No shortcuts...Just hard work. (🎥@CBBonFOX )
