"It means a lot to be back out there." An emotional Tyrese Haliburton on his highly anticipated return after 486 days away 🥹 He finished with 23 PTS and 12 AST as the Pacers win their season opener!

I just got the call nobody wants. Today is my last day at Gannett. I won't be covering Butler Basketball this season. Firing me weeks before the season starts, with a pregnant wife is beyond crushing. Well, I'm a free agent now.

I’m asking you to help share this post! We had 12 students show up tonight for the first official day of high school football practice. We also have 3 more players who were out of state today, bringing us to around 15 players. Unfortunately, that's still not enough to have a football season. We're asking any high school boy who has even the slightest interest in playing football to come to the football field tomorrow at 4:00 PM. We need at least 6 more players to have a chance at a season. At the end of this week, I may have to make the difficult decision to cancel our high school football season, a decision I truly do not want to make. Now is the time to try something new. Now is the time to become part of a brotherhood. Now is the time to build friendships that can last a lifetime. Now is the time to experience one of the greatest sports in the world. Now is the time to be an Elwood Panther Athlete Parents, I'm asking for your help. Please talk with your son and ask if he has any interest in playing high school football. If the cost of cleats is keeping them from playing, I will personally pay for them out of my own pocket. We're pleading for 6 more players to come to the football field tomorrow at 4:00 PM. Give football a chance you may discover something you'll love and create memories that last a lifetime. Please share this post and help us keep our football program alive!

Loving Jesus is fun, try it. 🤎
Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham was baptized this past weekend. It’s not just a headline , it’s a pretty big personal statement, especially with how visible she is right now going into the 2026 season. Praise God! Welcome sister Sophie!

Correct, not even close. #GOIU #IUFB
I’m almost 100 percent certain Indiana did not pay $40 million to win a National Championship.

I'm still looking for some college journalism or political science students to help us collect results in the doughnut counties on election night. Interested in helping? Let me know! (You get paid!)

Next month I will join @IndyStarSports and return to reporting on Purdue basketball, football + everything else. I am excited to lead the Star's expanded commitment to covering that program. For those following my OSU coverage, I'll close out with our 2nd annual Maychigan week.
