| | | | | If you need a loan, give Gus Malzahn a call. If he finds a way to make UCF a top Big 12 team before his contract runs out, he'll get re-upped yet again. Bank on it. ... Finally, no talking about injuries with the Orlando Magic. Can't wait to see how their guard-heavy rotation shakes out. Coaches will tell you it's a good problem to have but that means eventually, after someone gets tired of sitting on the bench, they'll want out. Then it gets tricky. ... Two games are left in the Pride's regular season. Can they make it 2-for-2 with Orlando pro soccer franchises? They're thisclose | | | | A source familiar with the deal confirmed a report by ESPN's Pete Thamel that Malzahn and the school reached an agreement early this summer. When the Knights made the transition to the Big 12 on July 1 his salary ranked him last among his new conference peers at public schools. | | | | | Veteran guard Gary Harris said there's a "night and day" difference between camp this year and last. Health is a big factor. "We're all locked in and working towards the same goal," he said Thursday. | | | | | In boys golf action, Lake Nona shot 4-under-par as a team to defeat Boone at Eagle Creek Golf Club, while Osceola captured the Orange Belt Conference girls volleyball tourney title. In bowling, Circle Christian defeated Trinity Prep in both girls and boys. | | | | | The two sides last met in May, with Orlando coming out on top 1-0. Louisville enters on a three-game losing streak while the Pride have won both of their last two games and three of five. | | | | | Vanderbilt's 31-24 upset win in 2022 was the low point of Billy Napier's debut season. The Gators are 18.5-point favorites, have lost just one at home to Vanderbilt since 1945 and could use a convincing win. | | | | | Check out the Orlando Sentinel's Super60 where an abundance of superb high school football talent is listed. | | | | | Lightning coach Jon Cooper has been pleased with the way his team has played defense this preseason, but in the penultimate game of the exhibition slate, the Lightning took a step back. | | | | | A shiny regular-season record is a good indicator for the playoffs. The Dodgers, Braves and Astros have the best regular-season records since 2021 with a combined .618 win percentage. They are .600 in the postseason. The Rays have a .586 winning percentage but are just .125 in the playoffs. | | | | | Moorhouse recently earned her sixth clean sheet in a 1-0 win over Angel City, setting the club record for a single season. They play at Racing Louisville on Friday night. | | | | | Miami expects to be hosting several key recruits for its ACC opener against Georgia Tech on Saturday. | | | | | No NHL team can match Tampa Bay's resume the past decade, but age, free agency and the salary cap are unforgiving realities. | | | | | In short, he saved the Jags — at least from being elsewhere by now. Los Angeles? St. Louis? Oakland? San Diego? Toronto? London? The Jaguars almost certainly would be in one of those cities — or well on their way — had Khan not bought the team from Wayne Weaver. | | | |
