Justin Fields calls Aaron Glenn 'one of the realest coaches' he's ever played for
Can Arthur Smith Be Steelers QB Whisperer? | Steelers Morning Rush
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, and his ability to mentor the team's next quarterback. The Steelers have a plan to trade up to draft a quarterback in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, finally addressing the position after several missteps in the aftermath of the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger. But is Smith the right guy for the job to develop a rookie quarterback? It's not anything he's ever done before in his two seasons as Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator and three as Atlanta Falcons head coach, but there are some reasons to think that Smith will be capable of molding a talented passer, especially his success in resurrecting the careers of Ryan Tannehill and Justin Fields. So can Smith be the Steelers' quarterback whisperer? Alan breaks it down. #steelers #herewego #nfl CONNECT WITH STEELERS NOW: Steelers Now: https://steelersnow.com SN on Twitter: https://twitter.com/pghsteelersnow SN on FB: https://facebook.com/steelersnow SN on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/pghsteelersnow/

2025 NCAA baseball Super Regionals set: What are the most intriguing matchups?
By Mitch Light, Joe Rexrode, Lindsay Schnell and Mitch Sherman The 2025 NCAA baseball Super Regional field is set following six winner-take-all games on Monday. Top seed Vanderbilt and No. 2 seed Texas were both eliminated on Sunday, but five of the six other top-eight national seeds advanced and will serve as hosts next weekend. Advertisement The story on Monday night was Murray State, which became the 10th No. 4 seed to advance to the Super Regionals since the current format was instituted in 1999. The Racers, the champions of the Missouri Valley Conference tournament, held on for a 12-11 win over Ole Miss in Game 7 of the Oxford Regional on Monday night. Ole Miss trimmed a 12-3 deficit to 12-11 with five runs in the seventh and three in the eighth but went down quietly in the ninth. Little Rock, one of two teams in the field with a losing record, almost became a second No. 4 seed to advance, but the Trojans lost to LSU in the Baton Rouge Regional championship game. Here are the matchups in the Super Regionals: No conference has more teams in Super Regionals than the ACC 😤 — ACC Network (@accnetwork) June 3, 2025 Is this the year Duke finally gets over the hump? The program has reached the Super Regional three previous times under coach Chris Pollard but had to play each time on the road, losing at Texas Tech in 2018, Vanderbilt in 2019 and Virginia in 2023. Duke took the first game in each of those Supers but ultimately fell short. Now, the Blue Devils finally get to play at home, thanks to Murray State's magical run through the Oxford Regional. And how about those Racers! Murray State won the Regional in dramatic fashion, beating Ole Miss twice at Swayze Field to advance to the Supers for the first time in program history. The Racers got it done offensively, scoring a total of 42 runs in their four games in Oxford — three vs. Ole Miss and one vs. Georgia Tech. They will be facing a Duke pitching staff that gave up 10 total runs in three games at the Athens Regional, including only three to a powerful Georgia offense that leads the nation in home runs. — Light THAT moment… #GoRacers🏇 — Murray State Baseball (@RacersBaseball) June 3, 2025 This is a showcase of two of the SEC's — and by definition, the nation's — most talented teams. They might be the top two. Tennessee has prospects such as pitchers Liam Doyle and Marcus Phillips, and infielders Andrew Fischer and Gavin Kilen. Arkansas counters with star shortstop Wehiwa Aloy, outfielder Charles Davalan and pitchers Gage Wood and Zach Root. It's a talent bonanza. Advertisement It's also a continuation of the SEC's disappointment after an underwhelming performance in the Regionals. That one of these teams definitely won't get to Omaha is a downer for the league, especially considering some of the national seeds that didn't make it to the Supers. Tony Vitello returns to his former home to take on mentor Dave Van Horn in one of the sport's great environments. Arkansas took two out of three at home against Tennessee to end the regular season and had no issues cruising through the first weekend, but the Vols seem to have their edge back. — Rexrode The eight-nine matchup is always intriguing, but this one is especially so because after a wild Regional round, we don't have that many Supers featuring two top-16 seeds. And neither team had an easy path to get here. After Oregon State's opening home loss, the Beavers' chances were shaky, but OSU responded by scoring 43 (43!) runs in its final three Regional games. FSU needed some magic of its own to pull off a late-game comeback against Mississippi State and advance to its 19th (19th!) Super Regional, the most of any program in the country. Florida State has one of the top prospects in the country in junior left-hander Jamie Arnold. The Beavers boast one of the best freshmen in the nation in right-hander Dax Whitney. Though they aren't likely to start the same game — Arnold should be the Game 1 guy while Whitney is likely for Game 2 — we are probably in for a masterclass in pitching. — Schnell This battle of the four-letter state schools is a historical mismatch. The Roadrunners are in the NCAA postseason for the first time since 2013 — which happens to be the year that the Bruins last qualified for the College World Series. UCLA won it all 12 years ago. Coach John Savage, in his 21st season, aims to take a fourth UCLA team to Omaha. But UTSA will not be intimidated by the iconic jersey or the setting after it rolled Texas twice en route to sweeping the Austin Regional. It was one of several black eyes for the SEC in the opening weekend of the tournament. When it's over in Westwood, we'll see a representative from the American Athletic Conference or the Big Ten at the CWS. — Sherman (Photo of Murray State: Petre Thomas / Imagn Images)

Properties: 11 Buyer: Harbor Group International Seller: David Werner, Onyx Partners and Carlton Associates Property type: Garden style Units: 3,590 Location: South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia and Tennessee Total purchase price: $625 million Harbor Group International purchased a portfolio of 3,590 units from a joint venture consisting of David Werner; Lakewood, New Jersey-based real estate investment and asset management company Onyx Partners; and New York City-based investment firm Carlton Associates for around $625 million. Subscription service Real Estate Alert first reported the news, according to a JPMorganChase email shared with Multifamily Dive. The 11 garden-style properties included in the sale are located in South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia and Tennessee. They were built between 1996 and 2010 and are 95% occupied. A small percentage, 15%, have been recently renovated. While some buyers aren't ready to jump back into the market, Norfolk, Virginia-based apartment owner HGI has been active in 2025. In May, HGI bought The Kendrick from Toll Brothers for $182 million, according to RealPage. The sale of the property, built in 2018 by the Fort Washington, Pennsylvania-based home builder, ranked as one of the largest apartment transactions in the first quarter. In February, affiliates of HGI announced the acquisition of Livano Canyon Falls, a newly constructed 300-unit apartment property in Northlake, Texas. It is part of the larger Canyon Falls master-planned community, which covers 1,199 acres across Northlake, Argyle and Flower Mound. Late last year, HGI Chief Investment Officer of Multifamily Yisroel Berg signaled that the firm saw an opportunity to acquire apartments in 2025. 'We are ready and eager to be active where the opportunities arise,' he told Multifamily Dive. Those opportunities can come from a number of places. 'There's a path where there's a ton of brand new units delivering,' he said. 'There's a path where there's distress. There are a lot of different ways where volume can pick up dramatically.'

Minnesota Wild re-sign veteran Marcus Johansson to 1-year, $800,000 contract to avoid free agency
The Minnesota Wild re-signed right wing Marcus Johansson on Monday to a one-year, $800,000 contract that keeps the 15-year veteran from becoming a free agent. Johansson had 11 goals and 23 assists in 72 games for the Wild during the 2024-25 regular season, bouncing between the second and third lines. He was sixth on the team in points. The 34-year-old, who was acquired by the Wild from Washington a few days before the NHL trade deadline in 2023, played the 2024-25 season on a $2 million salary cap charge. Johansson had four goals and four assists in nine games for Sweden last month at the ice hockey world championships to help his native country's team win the bronze medal. He has 185 goals and 332 assists over 983 career regular-season games with seven teams in the NHL.
