Tim Tebow will spend much of his professional life outside of football for the foreseeable future after recently becoming partner at GOVO Venture Partners — a venture capital firm based in Winter Park, Fla. A couple hours from his hometown in Jacksonville, Tebow will "use his expertise and relationships across the state to boost the firm, which recently launched its first venture fund (GOVO Fund I) focusing on early-stage companies involved with government entities and government regulations," according to Sportico.

After completing 136-of-269 passes for 1,999 yards and 19 touchdowns, Kavon Simmons was getting plenty of interest from schools at all levels to play Quarterback in college. And if Duke hadn't come in late in the process to recruit him as a Wide Receiver, that would've been the next logical step for his athletic career. But the Blue Devils' coaching staff made a convincing pitch on a late June Official Visit for how the transition would go, culminating in a scholarship offer at the end of the trip.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022. There was no doubt in his mind what it was: a tom lynx, judging by its blocky head.

Tanner Terch was already a Husker commit who didn't need convincing that he'd made the right decision. But confirmation is a fine thing to place in your pocket. As he was winding down an interview last week with Husker247 after his official visit, the athlete out of Colorado agreed with the sentiment some recruits have expressed that it's not a feeling of if for Husker football. Rather, a visit inside the program's walls for a weekend is filled with the takeaway that it's going to happen.
