I remember covering ASU 20 years ago when a half dozen media members would attend post-practice interviews.

New Post: Union Jack Classic & Jaguars UK Announce Partnership, Launch Elite Series Clinic thetouchdown.co.uk/union-jack-cla…

A fantastic initiative which will see coaches from @KU_Football and @ASUFootball head over to London to hold sessions for 18-25 year olds. Both @JaguarsUKandIE and @unionjackclasic growing the game this side of the pond.

Jacksonville Jaguars UK and the Union Jack Classic announce a partnership that will bring an Elite Series Clinic to the UK, giving young athletes the opportunity to learn from the best 🙌 First clinic features Kansas HC Lance Leipold on April 25 🏈

Kenny Dillingham said he took notes from Mike Vrabel regarding the cultural standards he hopes to hold at ASU: "I want you to be your own personality. But everybody has to have the same mindset." @SunDevilSource

@ClayTravis ESPN with the “whiff” on letting DP go!

Dan Patrick is a first ballot sports media hall of famer. Elite on TV and radio for decades. Phenomenal talent and work ethic.

High school athletes and parents…

Can you identify this 70s band? 🤔

🚨 Paramount+ announce a new docuseries — You Don’t Know Where I’m From, Dawg — a comprehensive look at the life and career of @USMNT legend Clint Dempsey. From a trailer park in Nacogdoches, Texas to a national hero — the five-part series coming soon to @paramountplus 🍿

Kelvin Sampson shares what separates good programs from great ones. It comes down to 3 things. "The best teams come from the coaching staffs that are the best demanders. There are certain non-negotiables." "We're not going to sit down and talk about this...This is the way it's done and we expect this effort." No debate. No negotiation. Just the standard. "And those eventually will be called standards. So - standards, accountability, and then we've raised our expectations." "Here's our expectations, and our expectation is probably a little bit higher than most people's. We don't talk about them." The standard is how you operate every day. "We practiced this morning at 6:00. Probably our best practice in the last 6 or 7 days. But that's because our standards are raising. Our kids are holding each other accountable now." Then he said the line that defines a great program: "That's when you know you've got a great program." When the players hold each other accountable not just the coaches. That's when you've built something real. The formula is: 1. Standards 2. Accountability 3. Raised Expectations. A great team isn't made of individuals seeking personal glory - it's made of people who hold each other accountable and work towards a common goal (🎥 March Madness)

A full circle moment for @brockpurdy13 and @ckirk ❤️ (via @NFLFilms)

@3four3 Anyone check the score when they played @EricWynalda’s academy team?! Asking for a friend…..

MLS operates on perception. This MLS office (not a club) got public pushback due to being all foreigner, no Americans, and certainly a bad youth "academy" situation. So, it looks like they played some/more kids. So predictable. x.com/intermiamicf/s…

Let the hate begin, already got it from the committee! “Don’t ask for a lighter load, but rather a stronger back!” Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere! #GoDuke @MisterCBooz

Got the 1️⃣ in the East‼️🕺🕺🕺

@AlexiLalas ‘94 Denim unmatched! 🫡🇺🇸

New U.S. jerseys for the World Cup this summer. “Stripes” - Clear, bold, and instantly identifiable. Nice nod to past. “Stars” - Muted and bland. Could be any country. Details are lost. But, as with any design, the performance determines the legacy. 🇺🇸⚽️

@conquertheno AC/DC

Didier Drogba: "When Messi, I and some of the players did an ad for a beverage company before the 2010 World Cup, Messi met some people in a remote village in the African forest, played football with them, but in the end he said to me in a serious tone, 'Didier, do you see that these people drink dirty water while we play for millions of euros?' The next day I heard from the company director that Messi donated his entire share of the ad to dig wells for the village and build a good hospital, school, playground and other things. The best thing is that he insisted on not mentioning his name in this donation. Six months later, Messi sent a doctor, an accountant and an engineer to the village to make sure that the money reached its owners and that the projects were actually built. Do you know the phrase that is still embedded in my mind to this day? On the plane back to South Africa, I asked him, 'Why all this secrecy?' He gave me an answer I will never forget: 'Because Africa doesn't need ads, it needs actions. And real actions don't need testimonials!' Messi's greatest goals were not scored in the goal, but in the hearts of those who do not know football! And whoever knows football will know that Messi is the best player in the history of football."

@EricWynalda Love this! Congrats @tatum_wynalda on your pro debut!

Proud That’s the word for the day Wynalda’s make waves 🤷🏻‍♂️
