I am just not sure about these reports of #PennState looking at #BYU Coach Kalani Sitake

I thought AD Pat Kraft said they want someone who is a Penn State person, but Kalani Sitake does not fit that & from the PA Area

Per @nauerbach.com

#BYU coach Kalani Sitake is the focus of the #PennState

I think #PennState is waiting to interview #OhioState OC Brian Hartline after the Big Ten Title game, unless Ohio State blocked Penn State from interviewing him

Former #Flyers goalie Carter Hart has been called up by the Vegas Golden Knights & could be making his debut on Tuesday

Talk about the timing of this as the Vegas Golden Knights will be heading to Philadelphia on December 11th so this should be interesting
December 1, 2025 at 4:27 AM
Josh Harris rather focus on his time with the #Commanders instead of being with #Sixers tonight

Joel Embiid after scoring 18 points in 30 minutes against Atlanta tonight on his availability this season:

“I do feel bad. … I will do anything just to play one game of basketball.”

Where contract talks with #WNBA & #WNBAP stand
A statement provided by the WNBPA to ESPN:

“We have proposed a six-week extension. We expect substantive movement from the league within this window.”
December 1, 2025 at 3:43 AM
That was an unreal catch by #Commanders Treylon Burks which resulted in a touchdown

#Sixers Tyrese Maxey with 44 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists in 52 minutes and double overtime lost to the Hawks tonight
#ATLvsPHI #NBA
December 1, 2025 at 2:17 AM
This was an exciting game but the execution down the stretch in the second overtime for the 76ers had terrible and questionable Play selection

The #Sixers lose 142-134 in double overtime to Hawks tonight at Xfinity Mobile Arena

This Sixers game tonight is absolutely nuts
