The Power Five has suddenly become a Power Two with the Big Ten and SEC loading up. The SEC added Oklahoma and Texas in 2021; the Big Ten countered by landing USC and UCLA in a seismic move. So who’s next to join the Power Two? That could be a little tricky, reports ESPN’s Pete Thamel. "The issue that both the Big Ten and SEC have in terms of adding additional schools is that there simply aren't any -- outside of Notre Dame -- that offer certainty of value to grow the financial pie enough to justify their slice,” Thamel wrote. “There are arguments for ACC schools like Clemson, North Carolina, Florida State and Miami. But there are looming legal reasons why UCLA, USC, Texas and Oklahoma are all waiting for their current TV contracts -- and congruent grants of rights -- to expire." USC and UCLA saying farewell to the Pac-12 largely centers around the Big Ten’s money-maker TV deal that is in the process of being negotiated. The Big Ten sought upwards of $1 billion in its next … [Read more...] about Conference realignment: Notre Dame lone program who can ‘grow the financial pie,’ per report

The Carolina Panthers have landed Baker Mayfield , the team announced Wednesday . Carolina, according to multiple reports, is sending a 2024 conditional fifth-round pick to the Cleveland Browns for the former No. 1 overall pick. Mayfield will compete with rookie Matt Corral and veteran Sam Darnold for the Panthers’ QB1 job. Mayfield was drafted No. 1 overall by the Browns in 2018, and the former Oklahoma Sooners Heisman winner has started 59 games since. But last season's struggles through injury led to Cleveland questioning its future at the position, and that led to the team signing Deshaun Watson on a record-setting $230 million deal. "I think the Browns should approach Baker and say we need you, we're sorry how this all worked out, but we want to give you an opportunity to go out there and prove yourself and I think Baker should take that," NFL free agent quarterback Robert Griffin III said when asked about Mayfield's status .

South Carolina 2023 EDGE target Chandavian Bradley announced his top three schools on Monday morning. Bradley, who is coming off an official visit to South Carolina over the weekend, named a top three of South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas A&M. In early March, Bradley posted a top 10 list of schools and South Carolina did not make the list. When he announced his top ten schools on March 12, the list included Washington, Tennessee, USC, Oregon, Miami, Florida State, LSU, Auburn, Texas A&M and Clemson. However, the Gamecocks continued its pursuit and have made an impression on Bradley.

Getty Images Before players turn their attention to the 150th Open Championship at St. Andrews, they will first head to North Berwick, Scotland, for the 2022 Scottish Open. Serving as a precursor for the year's final major championship, the Scottish Open marks the first co-sanctioned event between the DP World Tour and PGA Tour outside of the World Golf Championships. As such, a stout field has taken shape with 14 of the top-15 players in the Official World Golf Rankings choosing to tee it up at The Renaissance Club. The lone name missing from this list is that of world No. 2 Rory McIlroy, who culminated four straight weeks of competition at the Travelers Championship. The Northern Irishman is readying for the Open on his own, and given the fact he has finished inside the top 10 of all three major championships this season, should probably not be questioned. In his absence, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will look to reenter the winner's circle for the first time since his … [Read more...] about 2022 Scottish Open: Live stream, watch online, TV schedule, tee times, radio, golf coverage

Getty Images As the 2022 NBA free agency period dies down, all eyes turn to the deals yet to be completed. It's presumed that Kevin Durant is headed out of Brooklyn, which could also trade Kyrie Irving, for whom the Lakers are angling.

USA Today Training camp is just around the corner in the NFL, and then comes the 2022 season. Plenty of teams have been busy this offseason, spending big to upgrade their lineups. Others have been more focused on rebuilding, tearing things down with the hopes of a brighter future. But which clubs boast the best all-around talent entering the hottest days of summer? Let's rank all 32 teams strictly according to their rosters going into camp, with full knowledge that the remainder of the offseason, the preseason and particularly the real games this fall will come to determine the true pecking order: 32. Falcons Arthur Smith is essentially starting from scratch for a second straight season, and this time, he doesn't have Matt Ryan's veteran savviness to at least mask the offense's thin weaponry. Kyle Pitts and Drake London could form a solid big-boy duo at pass catcher, but there's still a general lack of explosiveness here. Regardless of whether it's Marcus Mariota … [Read more...] about Ranking all 32 NFL rosters ahead of 2022 training camp: Bills, Buccaneers, Chargers crack top five
