A solemn assembly of Latter-day Saints sustained President Dallin H. Oaks this morning as the 18th prophet and president of the @Ch_JesusChrist. See video, images and what President Oaks said. deseret.com/faith/2026/04/…

@kylesylvester15 @jordayylmao @TBRaysCentral @OPS_BASEBALL If that’s the standard for hating a player, only Judge has a chance to not be hated, and it’s still unlikely.

@jordayylmao @TBRaysCentral @OPS_BASEBALL Because he isn’t maintaining a 220 ops+ over the whole season

@xalterednameJN @Deseret That’s awesome, Jiro! You sound like a lifelong learner!

@Deseret @Tad_Walch As a graduate of BYU, I continue to study Greek, Hebrew and Arabic, even though for a very short fifteen minutes each day (three days for Hebrew, two days for Greek and Arabic). I like learning foreign languages.

President Spencer W. Kimball said BYU should become "the language capital of the world." There is evidence the university is achieving the goal. | By @Tad_Walch deseret.com/faith/2026/02/…

There were 18,324 at the Marriott Center @byu (full house) and 10,649 at the I Center @byuidaho for the President Oaks devotional in Provo. ⁦@Deseret⁩ deseret.com/faith/2026/02/…

Here’s the scene at the Marriott Center ⁦@BYU⁩. Students lined up at 4am to see President Oaks devotional, the first here by a prophet since 2019. Doors closed at 10am. Students are turning lights on phones if there is an empty seat by them.

@cheesecakegood @espn @BYUMBB No, in sports T always means tied

@Tad_Walch @espn @BYUMBB The announcers said “tied for longest” but I think “T-longest” is shorthand for THIRD longest, graphic is correct?

Not sure where @espn got this completely false piece of data about @BYUMBB. There is a 17-game winning streak, a 15-game winning streak…

Turned on the @RamsNFL game at the end of the commercial break after Puka Nacua scored on the game’s first drive. Now in the second Q and all @NFLonFOX can show is highlights of the TD celebration. It’s like they’d have to pay more money to show the actual highlight of the play.

I’m at the Tabernacle on temple Square to cover President Holland’s funeral for @Deseret, where you can watch the funeral live and follow our live blog.

Make that 14 times in 51 years.

President Holland has died. Here is the life story I wrote. deseret.com/faith/2025/12/…

@JFloyd314 LOL

Sources are telling me the driver had attempted to give Aleksej Kostic a ride home from last night's game, but he caused the vehicle to spontaneously combust

Just now on 620 North in Provo

Not a bad view from the offices tonight

LJ Martin blasting his way toward top of the list of BYU workhorse legends Story by @Tad_Walch deseret.com/sports/2025/12…

LJ Martin seems like an unusually large part of the @BYUfootball offense this year. Data bore that out, so I wrote this story. Former @BYU back Curtis Brown told me he's stunned at the level of athlete the Cougars get these days, including Martin. @deseret deseret.com/sports/2025/12…

I wrote this profile published tonight about AJ Dybantsa and his parents. It includes big sections of basketball info and analysis, too, from ⁦@BYUMBB⁩ coaches and others. @deseret ⁦@byusports⁩ ⁦@BYU⁩ deseret.com/sports/2025/11…

@TheMormonNews Ouch. Hope she feels better and heals swiftly

A 6am report time to the hospital is very early. But getting her arm set is much more important than my sleep. I’ll sleep when I’m dead.
