“State constitutions, too, are a font of individual liberties, their protections often extending beyond those required by the Supreme Court's interpretation of federal law.” -Justice William J. Brennan, Jr.

@bpfeiff24 @BAMA2STL The Cardinals have also had blue jerseys!

@BAMA2STL I mean Cardinals, Blues, and City all have shades of Red, Blue, and Yellow. So you’re halfway there. The Blues even had red jerseys. They’d just have to lean more into them being named after the song than the color. Red and Navy Blue with Yellow accents feels like the way

How does this work for STL with two teams named after colors?

@kristinatastic clams casino

I've been working on this important list for a couple of years now. What am I missing?

This is incredible news. Incredibly excited for the future of SCOTUS advocacy on behalf of indigent defendants.

I’m very excited to have this piece with Sarah Swan coming out in @georgetownlaw journal

Some personal news: very excited to share that I will be editor-in-chief for Vol. 56 of @GeorgetownLJ’s Annual Review of Criminal Procedure. The ARCP does crucial work in making federal criminal procedure accessible to attorneys and pro se litigants alike. More TK soon!

In the New Year, may your search for fulfillment lead to many fruits, may you seize its effects, and may motions to suppress your warranted happiness be denied. Here's to a 2026 filled with good faith and inevitable discoveries.

@OrinKerr In the Bluepages, small caps aren’t required anyway! Shame about the capitalized “a,” though. Regardless, a very cool hat! Happy new year!

For the Bluebook nerds: No, they didn't have small caps for "Const," and yes, I ordered it with a lower-case "a" for "amend" but they changed it to upper-case. Editors! Happy 2026, everyone.

@allanw98 Is wake forest the 2025 denver broncos of cbb?

Wake refuses to beat teams by margin. It’s absolutely infuriating that we couldn’t beat this team who beat D2 NAIA team by 5!!!!!!! Earlier this week. This is just flat out embarrassing from everyone but Juke. Sure a win is a win but winning by 16 when everyone else around us is winning by 25+ is just not good. We refuse to put teams away and we play to our level of competition. We’ll be close with Michigan but then we’ll turn around and be close with Campbell. It’s just who we are and until I see something change I won’t have any faith in us covering a 20+ point spread going forward. I can’t believe I’m even having to post this after a double digit win but that’s just the world we live in now with CBB.

@SKennedySports @WakeForestOnSI Congratulations!

With the new era of Demon Deacon football starting tonight, I must announce my new era as well. I'm excited and proud to announce that I'll be joining the staff over at @WakeForestOnSI! I'm looking forward to producing Deacs-based content for all to enjoy. As always, #GoDeacs!

@GrumblesMotion You are genuinely one of the most inspiring people I follow here and are one of the reasons I want to be a public defender!

@ConorONeill_DI Sports geography is something alright…Tampa Bay and Atlanta are both west of PGH (so is Winston, for that matter…)

They go to Pitt in October but the Pirates are in the NL *Central*, the Steelers in the AFC *North* ... So this is Cal's next trip *east*:

@christa_dutton @chronicle So excited for you!! See you in DC soon:)

Today was my first day as a reporting fellow for the @chronicle ! Excited to spend the next year with this incredible team of reporters & editors covering higher ed Send story tips or say hello at christa.dutton@chronicle.com 👩‍💻

@coop_is_cool @SKennedyOGB Brunswick Times-Record. The Portal Whisperer. (Congrats, Coop, this is huge!)

@essexthayer7 End of an era. So excited to see what comes next!

Programming note: 3 of the next 4 weekends, I’ll be on the road with CBS on the PGA TOUR. Then there’s graduation, plus more golf events during the postseason. That means my in-person coverage of Wake Forest baseball is coming to an end. (1/3)

RDU-LGA remains one of the best flights I’ve ever been on in terms of airport quality. Just two stellar airports.

A must-read from the director of @WakeForest’s journalism program in @NYTmag.

@watershipblues @mjzibanedad It’s 1 point now

@mjzibanedad We need a Rangers Magic Number/Tragic Number account that keeps track of this and posts it for every game bc I'm far too lazy to do that math myself

soooo how many more wins/points for the rangers to officially clinch a playoff spot?? 👀 #NYR

@SKennedyOGB There is a shuttle of about thirty of us waiting to leave for the game, so…might get a bit better?

The state of the student section 12 mins until tip.

@SKennedyOGB @ConorONeill_DI I don’t believe Wake even sold out their 1,200-ish student ticket allotment…

@ConorONeill_DI I can say this confidently: there is a good amount of students that don't even KNOW there's a game tonight.

I'm live from New York, but ace Deacons Illustrated correspondent Bob Sutton reports: Looks like App State fans are amped up tonight based on the scene outside Joel Coliseum. The early returns as the doors open suggest a big App State turnout, but the polls are still open.
