Same here, terrible news out of Knoxville. Terrific reporter and someone to share the highs and lows of Arsenal with. Thinking of his family, he’ll be missed by many.
Crushed to read on the other site of the passing of Wes Rucker. He followed me when I had like 100 followers and really encouraged me. He didn’t take shit from anyone. Wasn’t in anyone’s pocket. I loved him. Getting to know him was what was great about old Twitter. RIP.

Ole Miss and Trinidad Chambliss scored victory No. 1 of the 2026 season on Thursday. It was more than a win for the Rebels though, it was a reminder to the NCAA to stop holding out hope that there’s a white knight in Congress who can save them from more such losses: www.si.com/college-foot...
