David Sanders Jr., one of Tennessee's top targets, has narrowed his focus to four finalists and is now a little more than a month away from announcing his college decision. The five-star Class of 2025 offensive tackle from Providence Day School in Charlotte, N.C., posted on his social-media accounts Sunday night that he plans to choose between the Vols, Ohio State, Georgia and Nebraska, and he's set to reveal his commitment on Aug. 17.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

For all intents and purposes college basketball's 2024 transfer season is over although some schools could still add one or two more players prior to tipping off in November. However, in this age of highly paid transfers, many coaches could opt for quality over quantity, meaning they'll concentrate their NIL funds on several elite transfer prospects rather than scatter those finite moneys over more marginal prospects in an attempt to fill all 13 scholarship spots. They may prefer to roll the dice on injury and other attrition with nine or 10 scholarship players. Texas Tech, incidentally, has filled only 11 scholarship positions as of this writing and could stand pat. This is a calculated risk Grant McCasland and other coaches may be willing to run.
