The Dodgers’ World Series-winning coaching staff won’t remain entirely intact next season. On Sunday, the Miami Marlins hired Dodgers first base coach Clayton McCullough to be their new manager, as ESPN first reported, creating the first opening on the Dodgers’ coaching staff in two seasons. A 44-year-old former minor-league catcher, McCullough had spent the last…
Too many wasted opportunities. Too many missed blocks at the line of scrimmage and tackles in the open field. The momentum–turning plays that the Rams executed during their three-game winning streak were noticeably absent on Monday night against the Miami Dolphins in a 23-15 defeat before 72,474 at SoFi Stadium. The Rams trailed from start…
The long road back to prestige started at home, against a largely anonymous opponent. Having failed its first test against a mid-major, UCLA took a step down in competition Monday night and didn’t do a lot to convince anyone it belonged back in the national rankings. Many of the same problems that plagued the Bruins…
SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama had another monstrous outing that put him in the record books among some impressive company.

Rookie receiver Malik Washington rushed for his first NFL touchdown on the opening possession of a…
The linebacker ended up on his backside. The cornerback fell backward as if he was breakdancing. Justin Herbert just kept running, juking and winning. Used to embarrassing defenders with his arm, Herbert added a display of shifty running in the Chargers’ 27-17 win over the Tennessee Titans (2-7) on Sunday at SoFi Stadium. The quarterback…
JJ Redick caught himself before the 10th game of his coaching career Sunday night. The young Lakers coach was about to use a well-worn coaching adage, chuckling at the absurdity of offering a “back in my day” to anyone listening. “There’s an old saying in coaching, ‘You are what you emphasize,’” he said before the…
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – After four “challenging” days, Florida basketball coach Todd Golden welcomed the reception he got when he took the court Monday night. Golden received a rousing ovation, one of the loudest of the night, during pregame introductions before the 20th-ranked Gators beat Grambling State 86-62. “I thought it was great,” Golden said. “I…
Jim Harbaugh previously had said he would never use the word “satisfied” when talking about football. In that case, where did the first-year coach think the Chargers had to improve, especially when considering the caliber of teams they will play over the next five weeks?
