UCF football report: Knights share stories in an effort to build chemistry • Hawthorne 2-sports star CJ Ingram commits to Gators in basketball
Sentinel Sports Final Wednesday, August 14, 2024 | | |
| | Everyone is gearing up for the fall. The NBA Cup schedule for the Magic is official, and the full regular-season schedule should drop by next week. UCF football sees the finish line after grueling training camp and Seminole's David Parks is content with his college choice -- Howard. An excellent HBCU (N.C. Central is a tad superior, however, ahem) when you look at the list of his alumni, from A-list actors, Pulitzer and Nobel winning authors, mayors and governors and possibly the next president of the US. Of course, Sean "P Diddy" Combs went to there too (didn't graduate) but he's getting the same treatment OJ Simpson received from the NFL while hunting for the "real killers" at every golf course in America. ... What are the odds the LA Olympics in four years surpasses Paris, which even had next-level public transit that ran like clockwork? They should make traffic an Olympic event. World record for driving 10 miles from downtown to home probably 1 hour, 59 minutes. Still more of an Olympic sport than breakdancing. | | Sanford Seminole senior David Parks will be a minority as a white football player at Howard. “I just looked at it as an opportunity to go play football and get a really good education,” Parks said on his decision to commit to Howard, a historically black university. | | | With 44 new players on the roster, the Knights hope sharing personal stories and goals will help with team bonding and building chemistry. | | | CJ Ingram averaged 24 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 21 games in 2023-24. He is ranked No. 73 overall and the No. 11 small forward in the 2025 class, according to 247Sports. | | | Following a random drawing in July, the Magic were placed in East Group A alongside New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Charlotte. | | | We interrupt this optimistic time of year for some pessimism. The preseason AP Top 25 is out and college football fans all over the country can dream about how this year it all comes together for their team. | | | After sitting out Friday's preseason opener against Atlanta, Miami's starting QB hopes he plays in Saturday's second exhibition against Washington. | | | Tampa Bay (59-60) dropped under .500 after losing for the sixth time in eight games. The Astros increased their division lead to 1.5 games over Seattle. | | | The French pulled off an extravaganza that isn't likely to be duplicated anytime soon. The facilities were grand as well as accessible, the weather gorgeous, athletes spectacular and the trains ran on time. | | | Justin Scott was a five-star prospect coming out of high school, but now he knows he's getting a fresh start on Miami's loaded defensive line. | | | There are powerhouses all around Lake Mary, which opens play Wednesday vs. Sioux Falls, S.D., in the U.S. bracket. | | | The returning starting quarterback of last season's 13-1 team has become the most recognizable and celebrated Bulldog of the 2024 edition. | | | |
