NCAA Division I votes to allow college athletes to bet on professional sports

If Division II and Division III also vote to approve the change, the new rules will go into effect Nov. 1.

When it comes to the NCAA, I find myself asking “Who’s turn is it to hold the brain” because if definitely was not the ones who voted for this.

Let’s hope either or both DII and/or DIII vote this down. Hopefully it was one of their turns to hold the brain.

Sister Jean passed away at 106 years old.

Terrible news, but when you think about it . . . she lived to 106, had all her marbles, and saw some pretty terrific basketball that one season. We should all be so lucky.

Hopefully ESPN gives the pregame ceremony of Loyola's first home game the coverage it deserves.

R.I.P. Sister Jean. She will be rooting her beloved Loyola hoopsters on from heaven with a program in her hand and a twinkle in her eye.

My paternal grandmother, who passed in 2019, lived until 106. My grandmother's niece, who passed away in 2020 at 100 years of age, said she believed my grandmother was 107. Both my grandmother and her niece were in their "right minds" upon their passing.
