NEWS: Benjamin Ndour, a 6-9 forward from Dakar, Senegal, has signed with FAMU, a source told @TheFieldOf68.
Ndour last played professionally for Etrusca Basket San Miniato in Italy. He is a do-it-all forward who impacts the game on both ends with his rebounding, shot blocking, aggressive rim attacks and ability to stretch the floor out to the 3-point line.

Fran Brown was asked today where he thinks Syracuse football's NIL budget falls within the ACC 🏈🍊
"I wouldn't ask my wife who she thinks is cutest coach around...there's certain things that you're better off just not knowing."
"I'm comfortable with who I am. Comfortable with what we have. Worry about ourselves.
Every team does these things but what separates teams and players? xitter.cf/thewinningdiff1/status…

"Words don't matter. It's about the action" when it comes to getting Florida State back to its winning ways.
A tough question that brought out an honest answer during FSU's turn at the podium in Charlotte. – at Eureka Mill, SC
Always need good quality staff members that can help the team be successful! Everyone has a role and if they all play their roles well then the team will be successful but if not the team will be fighting an uphill battle and that means everyone in the program

As an Athletic Director, you better learn quickly that if you don’t understand your school’s foundation is academics, you will constantly face internal struggles with teachers and other administrators.
At the same time, the best schools also understand that athletics is the front porch of the school. It is often the first thing prospective families see and experience.
When schools intentionally invest in both academics and athletics, everyone benefits. Strong academics build the mission of the school, while strong athletic programs build community, school pride, visibility, and relationships that extend far beyond the playing field.
The schools that truly excel are the ones that stop viewing academics and athletics as competing priorities and instead recognize that they are partners in creating an exceptional student experience.
Great schools don’t choose one over the other. They commit to both.

Jalen Brunson (@jalenbrunson1) with an all timer for the haters at the @nyknicks parade:
Success is the only revenge that matters.
Because as you grow, their criticism just fades into irrelevance.
As your impact gets louder, nobody can hear their opinions.
You don't defeat your detractors by arguing with them, you build something so massively impactful that they disappear in its shadow.
Because there's no greater waste of time than seeking validation from people living a life you wouldn't trade for anyways.

🚨SIGNED! Ralph Martino Jr is a 6’7 guard who bring a unique combination of shooting and athleticism to the rattlers. At Saint Francis last season, Ralph shot over 55% from the field and 50% from 3. He is a true 3 level scorer w/ size and length to impact both ends of the floor.
He also shoots over a double team which leaves us with a rebounding numbers advantage. There are multiple ways to be a double team and that is one of them. OG going to rebound was a key factor instead of saying it is a bad shot
This Jalen shot is getting a lot of criticism. Here’s why I like it:
1. It’s our best guy in rhythm, with confidence. If we lose and he took the last shot on a clean look, it’s hard to second-guess.
2. Time and score. Down 1 with 5 seconds left your only chance for 2 scoring opportunities is a quick shot. He sees daylight and pulls. If he dribbles into a tough, contested jumper there is no second opportunity and it’s a lower percentage look.
3. The Double Team. He drew 2 and pulled before they got to him. It leaves the rebounding situation at a 4-3 Knicks advantage. But even more than that…
4. Wemby’s Positioning. Brunson has Wemby all the way outside the arc and makes him irrelevant for the rebound. The 4-3 rebounding advantage becomes even bigger when your only size is out guarding the smallest guy on the court.
It’s all about percentages and opportunities.
Brunson takes a clean look (albeit deep) 3, stepping into it - I like that shot. More importantly, he takes it with 4 seconds left, leaving enough time for a second shot if they can get a rebound or a tip. Boosting their percentage of success is the double team involving Wemby outside the arc, leaving the Spurs undermanned and undersized when OG comes flying through the lane uncontested.
Go Knicks.
