gold star for USAHOF

Baker Mayfield is expected to skip the Cleveland Browns’ trip to the Bahamas this weekend as his replacement, Deshaun Watson is the one treating the team to it, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com.

Watson is using part of his massive contract for team bonding and tropical offseason workouts and, according to the aforementioned source, Mayfield will remain in the U.S while the new quarterback familiarizes himself with his new teammates.

The trip will be similar to the one Mayfield put together in his hometown of Austin, Texas a few years ago, only that it will be out of the country.

Mayfield is still actively looking for a trade while rehabbing his shoulder and will not be part of the contingent that heads to the Bahamas. 

Ian Rapoport previously reported that he was certain Mayfield would be part of the Browns’ training camp but it’s now looking unlikely. Rapoport spoke on the Pat McAfee show recently and describes what he believes is the former No.1 pick’s thinking.

 

“Baker is, I'm not trying to make excuses, but I understand from Baker Mayfield’s standpoint why he'd be like, ‘You know what, I'm going to stay away,’” the reporter said. “He feels a certain way about the organization. He believes that they told him one thing and then did the other. I would say the opportunity to trade for Deshaun Watson was something that even caught the Browns out of nowhere because remember, he told them no a day before that.

"So like, I think at that point, they probably told Baker ‘you're good’ and then they traded for Deshaun. I understand why he wants to stay away. The most important thing for him is to figure out how he separates from the Browns, if he separates from the Browns, because I don't see that market going anywhere anytime soon.”

He then touched on Mayfield possibly showing up for mandatory workouts and training camp, stating he was “sure” the 27-year-old will be there.

“That is either the first week of June or the second week of June and then he's got to be at training camp,” he continued. “You know, training camp would be awkward. I'm sure he will show up. I'm sure it'll either be some sort of agreed upon (deal). ‘You know what you can sit out’ or maybe like a hold-in (by saying) he has migraines or a hamstring injury or a back injury or something like that. I think in the end they can come up with a situation that both sides agree with, but it is going to be weird until they get to that point.”

Mayfield had a pass completion percentage of 60.5 last season, going for 4,010 yards and 17 touchdowns along with 13 interceptions in 14 games. He struggled with a shoulder injury for most of the campaign. 

He’s now in an unfortunate situation, with the Browns having signed Watson while his salary has made it difficult for him to find a new home. Mayfield is owed 18.86 million in fully guaranteed salary for 2022, which has made a trade hard to come by. 

The Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks have been linked to the QB but they might wait to see if Cleveland will cut the player before training camp.

The new acquisition has heightened the Browns’ chances of winning a Super Bowl in 2022/23. They’re currently 18/1 to snag the trophy next season and Ohio sports betting folk will probably have them among their picks.

While Mayfield’s predicament does have fans feeling sorry for him, former QB Steve Young has told the disgruntled star to stop playing the victim. Young knows adversity all too well, having struggled while in Tampa Bay before spending a few years as a backup for Joe Montana and then going to prove his worth as a star with the San Francisco 49ers. 

Speaking on The Rich Eisen Show on Monday, Young urged Mayfield to own his mistakes.

 

"You can’t play the victim," he said, per 247Sports’ Brad Crawford. "Victimization has to be put in a bottle and buried in the ground because it’s too easy to play victim. Look, there’s a lot of things out of your control and a lot of (things) you’ve been done wrong. You cannot, in the NFL, survive and play the victim. You have to leave it behind and own every bit of it. 

"Own every mistake you’ve ever made. Own how you got here. Don’t blame other people. You got yourself here. You’re here. You own it and that would go a long way for everybody to feel like Baker Mayfield can make the elements of a comeback. You can’t get there in the spirit of victimization. It can’t happen."

Sports betting is an industry that can often feel as large as that of sport itself. Similarly, you can be into sports betting and yet only experience a narrow slice of it due to the fact that all of your attention is focused on one sport. This might be a sport that you prefer or find yourself more familiar with, but the point still stands – there are new horizons to conquer, if you feel inclined to do so.

While football and horse racing often find themselves to be at the top of sports betting popularity lists, basketball is never far behind. It’s a sport that is more popular in the USA than the UK, where the former two might be preferred, so taking the time to acquaint yourself could be a good first step.

Getting Some Tips


The idea of betting on a sport that you’re completely unfamiliar with is something that comes with its fair share of hurdles, chief among these might simply be that you don’t have a sense of what’s a good bet and what’s completely clueless. If your level of knowledge regarding basketball is that low, brushing up on some basic statistics and fixtures could begin to give you an idea of what the landscape is looking like, but beyond that, you might need more specialist advice.

Knowing where to go for the best sports picks can mean that you begin to incorporate this advice into your own knowledge, allowing you to go to the best online sportsbooks with more confidence, and the more you practice, the stronger you’ll feel in this regard.

Watch Some Games


If betting is your priority as you try to get into basketball, it’s understandable that you would be eager to get the preliminary research out of the way as quickly as possible so you can get back to what you find most interesting about this whole experience. However, while you can read up all you want about the statistics and advised direction of bets, it might not mean all that much to you if you don’t have much familiarity with the game itself. For that reason, you might find that it’s a good idea to actually watch some games for yourself. If you’re in the UK, doing some research into which channel to head for here can be a good place to start.

Look Outside of the Game


How any given sport functions can vary greatly from one to another, so you might find that simply taking your knowledge from something like football and trying to apply it here won’t work. With basketball, for example, you might find that it benefits you to look outside of the one game that you’re betting on, to get an idea of how fatigued each player will be when it comes to that game in particular. With multiple games being played in a short span of time, factors such as this can make a big impact, and it could be something that you’re entirely unaware of if you’re unfamiliar with the sport. 

Though new casino games and variations pop up now and then, the most popular games of all time never change. When it comes to popular casino games, nothing beats the classics!

From blackjack to slots, casinos offer a wide range of games to keep players entertained. Keep on reading to discover the most popular options of all time; maybe your favorite will be on this list too.

Top casino games

Whether you’re new to casinos or a seasoned player, we’ve rounded up the top casino games to help you decide on your next game. Try all of these to get your skills up to scratch!

Blackjack

Did you know blackjack is one of the most enjoyed casino games in the world? This casino classic uses a 52-card deck, and players face off against a dealer while playing. The aim is to beat the dealer, but this isn’t always as easy as it sounds.

While this is a popular game in land-based casinos, it’s also popular in online gambling. Many websites offer live dealers to make the game even more exciting. You can even find live blackjack in Canada — perfect for an evening of fun.

Poker

Some casino fans think poker is the greatest game of all time, and it certainly is a classic game. This casino staple involves players wagering which hand is the best according to specific game rules. Did you know that poker was initially played with 20 cards? Today this popular game is played with a full 52-card deck.

Roulette

Roulette comes from a French word that means little wheel, but this casino game was developed by Biribi, making it an Italian game. You need a wheel with slots and a marble-like ball when you play roulette. This game requires a dealer to spin the roulette wheel too. While you can find this game in online casinos, it’s also a popular land-based casino option.

Baccarat

Baccarat is another top-rated casino game. This game was even popular among French nobles during the 19th century and in theNapoleonic era. Baccarat used to be played in private gaming rooms, but after casino legislation in 1907, it became a staple of public casinos. This is a comparing card game and has players compete against the banker.

Craps

Have you ever played craps? Also referred to as seven-eleven, this casino game involves betting on the outcome of dice. Players often wager money against a bank or each other, and the closest bet wins. Some think this game originated with Roman soldiers, and others believe it came from an Arabic dice game, but no one is 100% sure where it came from.

Slots

Finally, slots aren’t necessarily tabletop casino games, but they’re definitely one of the most popular casino games available. Slots involve pulling a lever on a slot machine with the goal of getting three matching symbols or specific bonus symbols. Traditionally, slots have three reels, but five, six and seven reels are available too.

This game is frequently found online and in land casinos, proving its popularity. Online casinos also offer themed slots, progressive slots and extra spins to make the games even more exciting.

Are you a casino player? The most popular online casino games of all time are well-known and played worldwide. If you’ve never tried these unique games before, give them a try and see what the fuss is about for yourself!

Today, the five men who have all the lights on them, who are they? What team do they belong to? Pay close attention to these names below and their teams' MLB odds, the Rookies of the Year will surely come from here. 

Top 5 MLB Prospects 2022

1. Bobby Witt Jr. (3B/Royals)

The second pick in the 2019 draft. Bobby Witt Jr., 21, also plays for SS, but in 14 games this year, he has only been in the hot corner.

In Spring Training, he hit .406, with 3 home runs, 8 RBIs, and just 3 strikeouts. Plus, he slugged .781 in 32 at-bats.

So far this season, he has a .203 avg, 5 RBIs, and 5 runs scored. He just had 12 hits in 59 opportunities.

The Kansas infielder is projecting a .264 batting average, 18 home runs, 67 runs scored, and 67 RBIs.

2. Adley Rutschman (W/Orioles)

The Portland native catcher was the No. 1 pick in the 2019 draft, but he's not a big leaguer yet. He didn't even see action in Spring Training, but his decent offense and above all, the guarantee he gives with the glove, are the most outstanding aspects of this 24-year-old player.

In 2021, between AA and AAA games, he batted .285 avg, with 25 doubles, 23 home runs, and 75 RBIs.

He is projecting .255 on offense, with 13 home runs, 15 doubles, and 43 RBIs. Of course, it remains to be seen; he is not even on the major roster yet. Rutschman is expected to make his MLB debut in late April.

3. Julio Rodriguez (OF/Mariners)

The No. 3 prospect on the circuit signed as a free agent in 2017 for a $1.75 million bonus, and so far, this season he's batting .200 with just 12 hits in 60 at-bats. He is 21 years old.

He hasn't knocked it out of the park yet and has 25 strikeouts to his name, the most this year for an American League player.

He had a .412 offensive average in the warm-up games, with 3 home runs and a .794 slugging percentage. His projections of him with the stick? .273 avg, 17 homers, 63 home runs, and a .442 slugging percentage.

4. Spencer Torkelson (1B/Tigers)

The pick 1 of the 2020 draft succeeded Miguel Cabrera in the initial of the Detroit team. Even in Spring Training, Torkelson got off to a slow start: he hit .258 with a .484 slugging percentage, 1 home run, and 4 RBIs in 15 games.

The 22-year-old 1B's projections for this year are a .260 avg, 25 home runs, 52 runs scored, and another 61 RBIs.

The one from California is emerging as a hitter capable of taking some balls out of the park and with a defense that is possibly better than his performance with the wood.

This season, he has a .224 avg, 3 home runs, 8 RBIs, 6 runs scored, and a .429 slugging percentage.

5. Riley Greene (OF/Tigers)

The Tigers have in Greene and Torkelson two pieces of great value that can give Detroit fans joy for years to come. The Cats own none other than prospects 4 and 5 of the entire big top.

Greene, 1.91 meters tall, and was the fifth selection in the 2019 draft, is a fast, agile player, with a good job both offensively and defensively.

Unfortunately, he has not been able to debut in the big leagues due to a fracture in his right foot that he suffered in an at-bat in Spring Training.

The pitcher in that game was Gerrit Cole. Greene swung and managed to hit the ball, and that 'the dog bit him’. Luckily, he didn't need surgery, but he doesn't have a return date yet.

In the warm-up games, he had 9 hits in 21 at-bats (.429), took out two balls, scored 6 runs, and drove in four.

The Rest Of The Top 10

  • Grayson Rodriguez (RHP/Orioles)
  • Gabriel Moreno (W/Blue Jays)
  • Anthony Volpe (SS/Yankees)
  • CJ Abrams (SS/Parents)
  • Francisco Alvarez (C/Mets)

The 10 names on this list have the talent to achieve great things, and they can all surprise us. Let's see which prospects end up stealing the show.

Moving to a new area can be stressful, especially if you're used to keeping an active lifestyle.  It can be hard to figure out where to start or how to join a team, especially as an adult.

If you're here and you're ready but not sure where to go: this is how you can play sports and be active in Calgary.

Why Do Sports as an Adult? 

Some assume that sports are only for kids, but they'd be wrong.  Sports are an awesome way to get your mind and body working together as you problem-solve, work to stay agile, and try to keep your opponents on their toes.  Getting to work as a team with other athletes is incredibly rewarding, and by being on a team, you get to share every single success and downfall that happens.  Although this isn't always fun, it's better than doing it alone.

Gyms

Although many may think that a gym is a solo experience: you get to connect with countless people every time you go.  This sense of camaraderie grows over time as long as you talk to other gym members and get to know people.  Look for sign-up sheets for teams or try-outs, and ask around if anyone knows about any local non-professional teams.  Although there may not be any yet, if you get enough people interested, you can start one on your own.

Sports Clubs

Sports clubs are a large part of getting to meet other athletes and sports fans!  The Calgary Sports and Social Club offers sports leagues that are not only co-ed but are open to try-outs from anyone who wants in!  They're not the only sports club in the city, which means you can ask around and figure out which one interests you the most if you can wait until you're accepted by one before you turn any others down.  Being polite and friendly will get you far here.

Some require a sign-up fee, and most require set practice hours like any other team, so make sure you have the disposable income and extra time required for this.

Community Sign-Ups

If you buy one of the many amazing Calgary homes for sale: you become part of a community.  Some neighborhoods and even streets create teams for hockey or soccer and compete against each other.  Ask around in your area, talk to your HOA or your neighbors, and figure out if they know about any local community teams.

If this is especially important to you, ask before you buy the house.  This can ensure you have the best chance possible of landing a team. 

Some employers Calgary Is Full of Options.

Calgary is one of the best places to live because everyone understands the importance of a work-life balance and gets that it's better to have fun as a team.  If you're ready to get back into motion and want to join a team to make this easier, try some of the ideas above!  You may find your next awesome friend group!

Whether you have recently taken up skateboarding as a hobby and are looking to take your pastime to the next level and maybe even start entering competitions, or else have been skateboarding for many years and are looking to learn more interesting facts about the sport, you have come to the right place.

Skateboarding is an extremely challenging yet ultimately rewarding extreme sport with a rich and diverse history. Here, for your reading pleasure and, of course, information, is a comprehensive guide to skateboarding and fascinating facts you never knew you didn’t know. 

Skateboarding For Kids

Aside from the obvious fundamentals when teaching your child or children the basics of skateboarding, one thing you must not forget to impart is how to fall off the skateboard safely. 

There is a simple way, both for you and your child, to get the proverbial hang of falling off a skateboard in the safest way possible with a simple set of rules:

  1. Push down once towards the ground (ideally grass or another soft surface)
  2. Once you hit the ‘deck’, the skateboard will either stop completely or slow down
  3. Allow yourself to fall forwards 
  4. Tuck your forward-facing shoulder down into your body (like you are preparing for a somersault)

The best way to ensure this technique is ingrained in the minds of your child and to allow them to feel comfortable in getting into this position is to encourage them to practice it again and again for as long as they need.

Protective & Safety Wear

It is absolutely essential to invest in the correct safety wear, whether you have been skateboarding for many years now or else are only just beginning your skateboarding journey. 

The most important item of protective wear is a helmet. Ideally a Triple 8 Certified Sweatsaver, and as a strict rule, you should never even fully stand on a skateboard, let alone move on one, without wearing a good quality and durable hard helmet. Other important items of safety wear when skateboarding include knee and elbow pads, 

Tips For Starting Out As A Skateboarder

As with any other sporting activity, be it in a professional and competitive sense or else as a personal and enjoyable hobby and skateboarding is no different. Arguably, as skateboarding is actually classed as an extreme sport, there are even more guidelines that should be adhered to when starting out as a skateboarder:

  • Set realistic goals and be patient
  • Research into the Ollie Stationery
  • Ask for professional and personal advice on how to improve
  • Always practice and learn on grass rather than on a hard floor
  • Never compare yourself to other skateboarders
  • Be sure to consolidate your progress

The Three Main Skateboarding Stances

Naturally, once you become comfortable on a skateboard, you will develop your own stance and posture. However, it is regularly necessary to adopt certain positions to complete tricks and moves and even keep the board running straight and smoothly. 

The ‘Nollie’ is when you are positioned on the skateboard with your leading foot as forward as possible, with your foot balanced on the edge of the nose. The ‘Fakie’ is how you naturally stand and position your body but essentially backward on the board, and the ‘Switch’ is when you stand with your less prominent leg and foot forward. 

Everybody loves hookups because they are fun and exciting. Seeing the passion in the eyes of someone new, someone you barely know, while they give you a satisfied look is one of the best feelings in the world. And if anyone gets used to that feeling, those must be rock stars. They can get a hookup whenever they want with almost anyone they want. Nowadays, that’s possible for regular people as well. Online dating sites gather people seeking the same type of relationships, so getting extremely casual dates isn’t a big deal. But we won’t make a list of rock stars who love hookups because that would include 99% of them. We’ll look into stars who stayed with their partners after a night of fun.

Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian

Travis Barker is one of the best drummers in the last 30 years who played for The Aquabats, Box Car Racer, +44, The Transplants, and Blink-182. He’s no stranger to hookups and relationships with stunning women, but one stands above the rest.

Kourtney Kardashian is one of the Kardashians, so she’s famous for being herself. Travis and Kourtney have been friends for years, but they’ve hooked up in 2021 (or late 2020). That wouldn’t be surprising because celebrities hook up with each other. The surprising part is that Travis and Kourtney stayed together and became a real couple. So all the guys who hope to see Kourtney’s profile on the site for a local hookup can lower their hopes. They won’t meet any Kardashian there, but they can meet many local girls and get casual dates. There are even dating sites only for celebrities. However, regular people can’t join them, so it’s better to stick to proven sites.

Benji Madden and Cameron Diaz

Benjamin Levi Madden is an American musician, singer, songwriter, producer, and the founder of the band Good Charlotte. He plays the lead guitar and sings as a backing vocalist. Benji founded Good Charlotte in 1996 with his identical twin brother. They’ve collaborated with other musicians, but Benji fell for an actress.

Cameron Diaz is cute, bright, and stunning. One of Charlie’s Angels became Benji’s personal angel after a casual hookup. The couple got married in 2015, and they have a daughter together. Cameron said that she loves her husband for teaching her how to value herself more. Guess even Hollywood stars also have self-esteem issues. They never had any trouble in the relationship like some other rock stars. Simon Le Bon from Duran Duran is just one example.

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee

Sadly, Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee weren’t that lucky. And no, we aren’t talking about the famous video. We’re talking about domestic violence that led to their divorce after only 3 years of marriage. But let’s start from the beginning.

The couple met for the first time in the Hollywood club Sanctuary on New Year’s Eve in 1994. Pam approached Mötley Crüe’s founder and drummer to give him her number. They hooked up but quickly fell in love, so they stayed together. They have 2 sons together.

Alice Cooper and Sheryl Goddard

Alice Cooper and Sheryl Goddard have been together for over 40 years. Read that again. He’s a rock star who could hook up with most women on Earth, yet he’s married to the same woman for 40 years. Sheryl Goddard is one of the happy ladies who managed to seduce rock stars, but she’s also one of the rare ladies that might spend 50 years married to the same rock icon. The couple met in 1975 when Sheryl began dancing in Alice’s stage performances.

David Bowie and Ola Hudson

Most people don’t know who Ola Hudson is, but this story becomes much better when you know that lady is Slash’s mom. Yes, the legendary guitarist of Guns N’ Roses had to deal with a rock star dealing with his mom. David Bowie dated Ola Hudson for a while when Slash was a little boy. Slash even shared that Bowie used to tuck him in at night as a stepdad would do. Who knows how many celebrity stories like that one will never become public. Too bad.

We see rock 'n' roll stars build relationships and want to follow our idols. These contacts can be a one-night stand, or something more serious. In both cases, online dating is a good option for finding dates if you don't have a strong fan base and don't hang out at fashionable parties.

The standard of computer games has only risen over the years as we get classics, expand them, make them better, and also come out with new and exciting games at the same time. As such, gamers today are absolutely spoilt for choice when deciding what they would like to play. 

There are a number of exciting games, such as sporting NFL games where you can play as some of the best players in the world, shooter games, and sci-fi games that transport you to a new world. Of course, where we have classic games and games that get the recognition that they deserve, we also get some titles that fall under the radar and remain overlooked. This is a real shame because they are usually excellent games to play and have simply not been picked up because of poor timing of their release. 

This article is going to go into a bit more detail about what some of these overlooked games are and why people should play them. 

Many Online Casino Games 

Online casino games were already seeing a huge rise in popularity, but this was accelerated in recent years as a result of the pandemic. Many people who were happy going to casinos are now more content within the confines of their own homes, enjoying some of the new and different games that have been made available. 

Your favourite slots are already available on a number of different online casino websites, but the sheer number of options means that many are overlooked. Different online casino sites do not just have the game roulette or slot machines but instead have a number of variations on the classics. As such, you tend to find that a lot of amazing titles do not get the recognition they deserve, as they are competing against a number of different games at the same time.

Roulette is an incredibly popular option on these gambling sites that you should certainly consider trying. If you want to find some of the different roulette games available then be sure to check this website

Vampyr 

This game is one that was released on a number of consoles, including PlayStation and Xbox. This was a product of Dontnot Entertainment, which created the game Vampyr and set it just after World War I. It was an action-role-player where the player takes on the persona of a doctor who has just been turned into a vampire. The doctor is left in an incredibly awkward position, as he has to then decide whether or not he should stick to the Hippocratic Oath or feed on the living. 

The world that is established within this game truly is unique as players meet an exciting range of different characters, all of whom (more or less) can be sacrificed with the intention of helping your character become stronger. There are a number of supernatural abilities at your disposal, as well as a cool and atmospheric take on London, all of which come together and make a great game to play. 

 

The Surge 

The Surge is the product of Deck13, which released the game on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. It was very different from their previous fantasy game, Lords of the Fallen, as The Surge has a very heavy science-fiction and action RPG style to it. The game played with a limb-targeting system available, which allowed players to improve their aim on those they were trying to hit. There were also different exo-suits and upgrades for those exo-suits available, which meant that players could tailor their characters, so they were more suitable for them. There was a sequel released, which seemed to get a bit more praise, but the original was definitely overlooked and is certainly worth a play for anyone who is interested in science fiction games.

Nex Machina 

Released on the PC and PlayStation, Nex Machina was developed with the designer Eugene Jarvis, who helped contribute toward what may well be one of the best arcade shooters ever made. There is no getting away from the fact that the game is incredibly difficult to play, but the controls are very smooth, the abilities are simple, and the enemies are huge. Fighting bosses can become a hectic affair, and doing it without dying a dozen times is more or less impossible, but that just adds to the excitement of the game. Nevertheless, this one fell under the radar, and not many people ended up playing it. 

Conclusion

Thanks to the massive array of games available and the high standard of said games, it is common for a lot of excellent titles to get overlooked. These are discussed in more detail above and are certainly worth playing if you haven’t already. 

We put a great deal of emphasis on regular-season records and star players who make up the top teams. However, coaches play a significant role when it comes to predictions on NBA lines. The minds behind the success are frequently overlooked. Coaches are as important as star players or a seasoned roster. If a squad isn't well-coached, they'll likely be leaving early.

Mike Krzyzewski continued to add to his already outstanding NCAA Tournament victories as March Madness progressed, and Duke continued to smash their opponents to the end of his career. Krzyzewski has won the most games as an NCAA men's basketball coach. He made history by becoming the first men’s basketball coach to win 100 games.

The top ten active head coaches with the most NCAA tournament victories are as follow:

 

Mike Krzyzewski (Duke with 100 wins)

With 100 victories, Krzyzewski holds a commanding lead in this area, and he has the opportunity to add to his total before retiring at the end of the season. He has cemented himself as one of the best playoff coaches in college basketball history, with 36 National Championship participations and five national titles.

 

Jim Boeheim (Syracuse with 57 wins)

Ever since the 1976-77 season, Boeheim has been the coach at Syracuse, and he has been on the winning side of numerous NCAA Tournament games throughout that time. On 20 occasions, Boeheim has led Syracuse to round sixteen or further. His team won the national title in 2003, and he has made four additional Final Four outings.

 

John Calipari (UMass, Memphis, Kentucky with 53 wins)

Calipari has already been to NCAA Tournament 20 times throughout his stints at UMass, Memphis, and Kentucky. His postseason success has skyrocketed since he arrived at Kentucky in 2009. He led the Wildcats to the Elite Eight and the national championship in his first 12 years at the club.

 

Tom Izzo (Michigan State with 48 wins)

Michigan State has been a perennial NCAA Tournament contender for decades, and under Izzo’s leadership, the Spartans have made numerous deep runs. They have featured in seven Final Fours throughout that period, including a national title run in 2000.

 

Bill Self (Oral Roberts, Tulsa, Illinois, Kansas with 47 wins)

Since his career at Tulsa, Self has already had March Madness success. He has led three separate college teams to the Elite Eight: Kansas, Illinois, and Tulsa. He led his club to March Madness in each of his previous 24 seasons as a coach, except for 2020 due to the lockdown.

 

Bob Huggins (West Virginia with 33 wins)

Huggins not only led West Virginia to a Final Four appearance in 2010, but he also elevated the Cincinnati basketball program higher than they were. Huggins led the Bearcats to the NCAA Tournament 14 times during his 16-year tenure as coach. Huggins has 25 NCAA Tournament participation between three separate institutions.

 

Mark Few (Gonzaga with 28 wins)

Since taking over the Gonzaga team in 1999, Few has piled up NCAA Tournament victories, quickly climbing the leaderboard. The Bulldogs have advanced to the Sweet Sixteen ten times under Few’s leadership. Despite all of his postseason success, he's still looking for his first national title.

 

Jay Wright (Villanova with 27 wins)

Wright has been the head coach at Villanova for the past two decades, and he has transformed the program into something that no one wants to play in the NCAA Tournament. The Wildcats have been a staple of March Madness since 2005, but their performance has improved dramatically during the last six or seven years. In 2016, Wright guided Villanova to the national title, then shortly afterward, in 2018, he repeated the feat.

 

Rick Barnes (Tennessee with 22 wins)

Barnes has led four basketball programs to the NCAA Tournament: Providence, Clemson, Texas, and Tennessee. It's a tremendous accomplishment in and of itself, but Barnes’ biggest issue is that most of his squads have been eliminated early in March Madness.

 

Ben Howland (Mississippi state with 19 wins)

Howland enjoyed a lot of postseason success towards the conclusion of his tenure at Pittsburgh and most of his time at UCLA. Howland led the Bruins to three consecutive Final Four games and one national championship game from 2006 to 2008. However, when Howland took over Mississippi State, those postseason appearances vanished.

Many young people are in love with sporting activities such as running and soccer. Some take it to earn their living, while some do it for fun. Most of these fanatics desire to succeed, though not all pursue their target goals. This is because of the choice of shoes they take for sports. Always consider the quality of gear to buy and the best legwear to stay fit. Below are tips to guide you in hiring the right men's sports shoes suppliers.

Cost-effective
