Cincinnati Reds place starter Hunter Greene on IL, sign veteran lefty Wade Miley
CINCINNATI — Just minutes before a scheduled MRI, the Cincinnati Reds placed starter Hunter Greene on the injured list with a right groin strain. Greene said he felt discomfort on his last two pitches in the fifth inning of Tuesday's victory over the Milwaukee Brewers and left the game. Tuesday was his third start back from the IL, which was one of the reasons the team returned him to the IL. Advertisement 'We stayed here for a while last night, we talked to him, we talked to trainers,' Reds manager Terry Francona said. 'Since it happened once and this is twice, we've got to figure this out. And then his lower back was starting to (affect him) and we're trying to figure out if it's related. We've got to get him healthy. It was kind of an easy decision even without seeing the MRI.' The Reds signed veteran left-hander Wade Miley to fill Greene's spot in the rotation and transferred right-hander Rhett Lowder to the 60-day injured list. Sunday, Miley exercised the opt-out of his minor-league deal and became a free agent. The 38-year-old is coming back from a hybrid ulnar collateral ligament surgery, which combines traditional Tommy John surgery with an internal brace, that he underwent last May while with the Brewers. Miley made seven minor-league starts this year, including a five-inning, two-run performance last Friday for the Triple-A Louisville Bats. Because he wouldn't be ready to pitch again until Wednesday, Miley said Reds president of baseball operations Nick Krall told him he'd have a place in the team's bullpen, but wanted to let Miley explore an opportunity to start elsewhere. Miley said he talked to a couple of other teams, but was happy to return to the Reds. Miley's family is in Cincinnati for the season, so he spent the time 'being dad' and coaching baseball games and practice for his son Jeb. Miley was already expected to be in the Reds' bullpen on Wednesday, but Greene's injury created an opening for him in the rotation. Francona said Miley would be available to pitch out of the bullpen Wednesday, but if he didn't, he'd start Monday in Cleveland. In 2021, Miley threw a no-hitter for the Reds against then-Cleveland manager Francona's Guardians at Progressive Field. Advertisement 'It was a situation where the five starters here were throwing the ball great, and I was pretty open with Nick, like I don't want to mess with that,' Miley said. 'Physically, I think I'll be fine in the bullpen, but they allowed me to see if there were any starting jobs out there, and at the end of the day, here we are.' Miley, a Red in 2020 and 2021, was a consistent and popular figure in spring training, and Wednesday's news generated excitement in the Reds' clubhouse. 'He was in full uni at 8:30 this morning when I thought I was the only one here,' Francona said. 'It's really welcome. We've been waiting for him, there's no getting around it. He's a bright light, man.'

Wisconsin football 2026 wide receiver commit shuts down recruitment
Wisconsin football 2026 wide receiver commit shuts down recruitment Wisconsin football class of 2026 wide receiver commit Tayshon Bardo left no doubt about where he stands in his recruitment process on Tuesday. Bardo, who committed to Wisconsin on March 11, announced his recruitment would be "1000% shut down" in a recent post on X. The decision arrived shortly after his official visit to Madison this past weekend. Before his statement, the Indiana native also had official visits scheduled to Cincinnati, USF, Michigan State and Vanderbilt. The pass-catcher's declaration comes at a busy juncture of Wisconsin's recruiting period to begin the summer. Defensive line target Jermaine Polk canceled his official visit to Wisconsin and edge rusher Carmelow Reed flipped his commitment from UW to Ole Miss on Monday, altering the program's depth in its class of 2026. The Badgers did pick up recent commitments from three-star tight end Jack Sievers, three-star defensive lineman Arthur Scott, three-star linebacker Ben Wenzel and three-star defensive lineman Djidjou Bah during the June 1 official visit window, morphing a recruiting class once stuck in the mid-40s to No. 34 nationally. 247Sports ranks the 6-foot-1 wide receiver as the No. 708 overall player in the class of 2026, the No. 103 wide receiver and the No. 6 recruit from his home state of Indiana. As of June 4, he is the only wide receiver to pledge his commitment to Wisconsin's class of 2026. The Badgers are now zeroing in on top targets LB McHale Blade, WR Jayden Petit, RB Amari Latimer, OT Kamari Blair and athlete Jackson Ford after each visited campus over the weekend. Bardo's enthusiasm and loyalty to the Badgers are certainly encouraging, considering the fluidity of recruiting in the transfer portal and NIL era. On top of that, UW received just one wide receiver commitment in its class of 2025 -- four-star Eugene Hilton Jr. Luke Fickell and offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes will turn to Jayden Ballard, Trech Kekahuna and Vinny Anthony II to captain the wide receiver position this coming season. That unit will begin its journey for the Badgers against the Miami (Ohio) RedHawks at Camp Randall Stadium in Week 1.

Josh Heupel, two former Vols on 2026 College Football Hall of Fame ballot
Josh Heupel, two former Vols on 2026 College Football Hall of Fame ballot Tennessee football head coach Josh Heupel and two former Vols are on the 2026 College Football Hall of Fame ballot. Heupel, Larry Seivers and Deon Grant are on the ballot, which was released Monday. Heupel is appearing on the ballot for a sixth consecutive year. As a quarterback at Oklahoma, he was a first-team consensus All-American and won the 2000 BCS national championship. Seivers was a two-time first-team consensus All-American from 1975-76. In 1975, he became the first Tennessee wide receiver to eclipse 800 receiving yards in one season. Seivers was a two-time All-SEC standout for the Vols. Grant, a safety, played for the Vols from 1997-99 under head coach Phillip Fulmer. He was a member of Tennessee's 1998 BCS national championship team. Grant was a 1999 consensus First Team All-American and Jim Thorpe Award finalist. He helped the Vols win two SEC championships, and was named the SEC Defensive Player of the Year by the Associated Press in 1999. Grant was a first-team all-conference performer as a junior after leading the SEC with nine interceptions. Following his career with the Vols, Grant was selected in the second round of the 2000 NFL draft (No. 57 overall) by Carolina. He played for the Panthers (2000-03), Jacksonville (2004-06), Seattle (2007-09) and the Giants (2010-11). Grant was a Super Bowl champion with New York. He recorded 776 career tackles, 6.5 sacks, 30 interceptions, 10 fumble recoveries and four forced fumbles. Follow Vols Wire on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).
