Former UNC basketball guard commits to Big Ten program

Former UNC basketball guard commits to Big Ten program

USA Today31-03-2025

Former UNC basketball guard commits to Big Ten program Elliot Cadeau is joining a storied Big 10 program in the transfer portal.
When Elliot Cadeau initially committed to UNC back in December 2022, there was an excitement traveling its way through the program I haven't seen in several years.
Fans didn't hold those same feelings on March 25, when Cadeau entered the transfer portal after two seasons as North Carolina's starting point guard. Cadeau would easily reclaim his starting spot on the 2025-2026 Tar Heels' squad, but I can't blame him for wanting to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
Six days after Cadeau entered the transfer portal, we now know his next destination. On Monday, March 31, Cadeau announced his commitment to play basketball for Dusty May and the Michigan Wolverines.
Cadeau's commitment is the second time in three years a former UNC player chose to continue his college career up in Ann Arbor. Caleb Love initially committed to Michigan back in April 2023, but later de-committed and chose the Arizona Wildcats that May.
Cadeau showcased noticeable improvement during North Carolina's 2024-2025 campaign, which ended in a shocking NCAA Tournament berth. Despite experiencing turnover issues throughout the year, Cadeau averaged career highs of 9.4 points and 6.2 assists per game, the latter ranking 17th in the country.
If I'm Cadeau, May is exactly the coach I want to play for. May took the Wolverines to the Sweet 16 in his first year at the helm, just one season removed from arguably the worst in program history.
With Cadeau gone, the Tar Heels now have a major hole to fill at point guard. My vote is to let Trimble run the point, but UNC also has combo guards Derek Dixon and Isaiah Denis coming in the 2025 recruiting class. Hubert Davis also needs to get a portal guard.

The SEC reveals TV windows for Auburn football

The SEC reveals TV windows for Auburn football Mark your calendars! The SEC has officially revealed the TV windows for every Auburn game The football season is almost here, and it is time to begin planning for roadtrips to the Plains and beyond to watch the Auburn Tigers this fall. Weeks after major networks revealed the start times for Auburn's first three games of the season, the SEC has now released the television windows for the remaining nine games on Auburn's schedule to better prepare fans for the season. Auburn's start times are broken down into four categories: early (11 a.m. – noon CT), afternoon (2:30 – 3:30 p.m. CT), night (5 – 7 p.m. CT), and flex (2:30 – 3:30 p.m. CT or 5-7 p.m. CT). Several notable windows are its game with Georgia at home (night), Arkansas on the road (early), and the Iron Bowl against Alabama (flex). Auburn's SEC opener at Oklahoma gets the flex treatment on Sept. 20, with the following week at Texas A&M beginning in the afternoon window at Kyle Field. The Tigers' home opener at Georgia will be under the lights at Jordan-Hare Stadium, with two of their next three games against Missouri and Kentucky being labeled as "flex." The game in-between the Missouri Tigers and Kentucky Wildcats at Arkansas will be an early kick. The next two games, against Vanderbilt in Nashville, and Mercer at home, will kick in the afternoon. Auburn vs. Vanderbilt will begin in the afternoon time frame while the game against Mercer will begin at 1 p.m. CT and will air on SEC Network. Finally, the Iron Bowl at Jordan-Hare Stadium is flexed. However, as the trend has shown recently, fans can expect the game to kick off at 2:30 p.m. CT. The time and date for Auburn's first three games were revealed last month. Auburn will begin the season in Waco, Texas on Friday, Aug. 29 against the Baylor Bears at 7 p.m. CT on FOX. The next two games, against Ball State and South Alabama, respectively, will kick off at 6:30 p.m. CT and 11:45 a.m. CT.

HC Sean McVay confirms Steelers' Aaron Rodgers could have signed with Rams

HC Sean McVay confirms Steelers' Aaron Rodgers could have signed with Rams Early offseason Aaron Rodgers to the Rams rumors have begun to resurface — and HC Sean McVay set the record straight. On Wednesday, Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt asked McVay to clarify what really happened between the Rams and Rodgers this offseason — and this was his response: "I think our first priority, which was consistently communicated, was let's work something out with Matthew [Stafford]. We were very fortunate that it worked out that way. If that wasn't able to occur, then [signing Rodgers] was definitely a conversation and a possibility for us," McVay admitted. "I have a ton of respect for his body of work. I've gotten to know Aaron and really enjoy the conversations — the approach and the way he thinks about the game and in life. So, that was a possibility, but our first priority was always to get Matthew back." Pittsburgh was considered a major favorite to land Stafford when trade speculation surrounding the Rams QB ran rampant — before he ultimately signed a massive extension to remain in Los Angeles. It's crazy to imagine that there exists a possibility where Rodgers potentially signed with the Rams — and the Steelers may have been able to land Stafford.
