The dispute over who is rightful chief of an Oklahoma Native American tribe that Kalshi is doing business with has spilled into court. Kalshi & CEO Tarek Mansour are defendants in the lawsuit centered around who leads the Alabama-Quassarte Tribal Town. frontofficesports.com/articl…

Blades Brown won't have to worry about playing on the second-tier PGA Tour Challenger Series in 2028—or the "contender league" as he called it last month in an interview with @FOS. Brown's win at the @WWTChampionship sealed his spot on the 2028 PGA Tour Championship Series.

CFP's Rich Clark on fans against the 24-team model: "We’re aware of the fan sentiment, and that many fans aren’t in favor of expansion. That was certainly weighed into the decision and it was considered. But ultimately, we just need to make a spectacular Playoff."

A fascinating comment here from Russini to People mag: “The absolute best part of this situation has been the loyalty the NFL has shown me. They checked in with me almost daily while I wasn’t working to make sure I was staying connected to football” people.com/dianna-russini-on…

thanks, I hate it
Within minutes of the CFP's announcement that the 24-team playoff will begin in 2027-28, all four power conferences have sent out press releases confirming they will sunset their championship games after this year. frontofficesports.com/articl…

If you're still reeling from the College Football Playoff's expansion from 4 to 12 teams, you better get with the times. ESPN and the CFP have now finalized an agreement to expand the Playoff to 24 teams--starting next season. Story w/ @SkinnyKenny_: frontofficesports.com/articl…

On the news that Ben Shelton is leaving On for New Balance (via @jessicaschiffer) -- he told me @FOS in 2024 he loved wearing a brand that wasn't the same as every other player who is in Nike or Adidas. he'll still have that effect w New Balance.
"Not throwing any shade, but you go to the US Open and you see guys in Nike, 20 guys wearing the same thing, or Adidas, 20 guys wearing the same thing. I don’t think many ppl get as much access as On has given me." great fun chatting w/ @BenShelton @FOS: frontofficesports.com/tennis…

Key man risk in AI is wild. More concentrated in a few ppl than any industry we’ve seen. Jensen, Sam, Dario, Musk... they run the companies, negotiate w the gov’t, raise the capital. That makes them the most valuable ppl in tech... and, as we learned this weekend, targets.

Unique circumstance but very rare to become a FBS head coach without collegiate/pro coaching experience. We saw it at UAB with Trent Dilfer (2023-2025), and a few times at the FCS level (DeSean Jackson, Eric Kjar, Deion Sanders, Michael Vick). Now we'll see it in the ACC.
Philip Rivers has been a high school coach in Alabama. He interviewed for the Bills' head coaching job in January. He returned to the NFL last season to play three games for the Colts at age 44. He's an N.C. State alum and his son, Gunner Rivers, has verbally committed to play there.

Michigan entered 2026 with the highest-paid OC/DC pairing in the country at $5.7 million. On Sunday, Michigan fired Jason Beck, the highest paid OC in college football. More on that and a season of failed investments for Michigan via @FOS frontofficesports.com/articl…
