Mike Brey has a change of heart and isn't retiring after all.
But he is still leaving Notre Dame.

Miami-Dade FD got popped for 8 figures 20+ years ago for a hazing incident similar to this.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

All sexual assaults are terrible and wrong.
Some are more brutal than others.
Ill leave it at that.

I agree with all that 100%

You should probably just walk away from this one since a pissing match about how brutal a rape is comes down to the victim's experience alone.

I think the doctor should take some of his own medicine.

From CBS Sports
No. 16 Xavier at No. 11 Marquette (Wednesday, 7 p.m. on CBS Sports Network) -- One day after Creighton-Providence, this is the other game featuring two of the Big East's top four. Marquette has a ½-game lead over both Xavier and Creighton, and this one should be a ton of fun. Xavier won the first meeting at home just over a month ago despite shooting under 28% from three (the Musketeers are second in D-I at 40.1% on the season) but made up for it with 40 points in the paint.

Marquette, meanwhile, actually had more points in the paint (42) in that contest and leads the country with 41.3 points per game off shots at the rim. Zach Freemantle and Jack Nunge against Oso Ighodaro sets up to be a terrific matchup

Someone might want to tell them that Freemantle is hurt.  👀

Nah. Surprised that they did not write about how big of a game this is for Wojo.

[mugrad_89]

Or how they'll need a big game from Dawson.

[wadesworld]

I remember always hearing that if you were a player that played for Tom Izzo for 4 years you went to a Final Four.  Has that changed with the arrival of a Hauser?

Anyway, has there ever been a 4 year stretch of Izzo players that hasn't had at least one player who murdered or raped someone?  Between the basketball program seemingly always having a new name in the headlines, the football team's sexual assault issues, and Larry Nassar, that athletic department really is something.

Georgetown might be a good landing spot considering his roots.

[brewcity77]

I'm very curious where he's going. Have to think he knows otherwise he wouldn't be making the announcement. Wonder if he has any ties to New Mexico State.

[tower912]

Wojo is in the New Mexico State neighborhood.    Runs a squeaky clean program.    Currently dipping his toes in the water with his gig with ESPN.    Just sayin'.

Yeah I don't know if he had a change of heart. I think ND offered him this option to save face.

[GoldenEagles03]

This is just really strange.

What could Collins possibly be doing? I don't understand.

[cheebs09]

What could Collins possibly be doing? I don't understand.

My guess was he wanted one of his guys to come over and guard him and based on instinct was grabbing the player. Kind of looked like something a coach would do while explaining something in practice.

[PGsHeroes32]

Poorly coached/Poor decision making by a veteran team in the UNC/Miami game.

UNC just kept launching bricks from downtown even though they were scoring at will in the paint.

Miami kept attacking.

Bad look, could be any number of things though. Thought it was his own guy etc.

WTF?  Totally bizarre.

I thought the same thing, but he didn't look like he responded afterwards like you would if it was accidental instinct.  He kinda just brushed it off lol.

Texas is 5-4 since Jan. 19

They are also 5-3 since Jan. 21 and 8-4 since Jan. 4. And 3 of those 4 were road games against teams currently ranked in the top 20 (2 in the top 10).
