Peyton returns to the Big Easy. Oh, and the Saints suck

Virginia men’s basketball coach Tony Bennett never chased the spotlight. That included with his stunning and abrupt decision to retire effective immediately, announced on the eve of the start of the season.

The program said Thursday the 55-year-old Bennett will announce his retirement at a news conference on Friday at 11 a.m. EDT. No reasons were given for his decision, which was unveiled simply in an online post by the program months after he had signed a contract extension to keep him in the job through at least 2030.

It came a week after Bennett appeared at the Atlantic Coast Conference’s preseason media days, and with the Cavaliers’ opener against Campbell looming at home on Nov. 6.

Bennett led the Cavaliers to the national title in 2019. In his 15 seasons as the coach in Charlottesville, he made 10 NCAA Tournament appearances.

Bills driving and Rodgers already looking pretty crabby.

Packers open at -2.5 in Vegas!

A challenge to be sure...but if the team we saw vs the Cards and Titans shows up...the Packers WILL win!

Cowboys down 27-3 at the half.

McCarthy might be getting some time to relax in retirement quicker than he thought.

5 things to watch Green Bay Packers Week 6 game vs. Arizona Cardinals (jsonline.com)

Will receiver rotation return to normal or will Romeo Doubs have to work himself back into good graces?

Receiver Romeo Doubs returned to practice from a one-game suspension after skipping practice Thursday and Friday and appears on track to play Sunday against Arizona. But what will his role be? The coaches still seem very interested in getting Dontayvion Wicks involved in the offense and the possible return of Christian Watson from an ankle sprain could make things crowded at the receiver position. Jayden Reed is the guy the coaches will scheme to get open the most and so Doubs’ role might not be as big as he hopes. It appears Doubs got back to work without any sign of unhappiness, “He's been a professional,” offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said. “There's been no warning signs or anything like that. He's gone out, had a good two days of practice so far. We’re just going to move forward from there.” The big question is whether he will remain focused if he doesn’t get the ball.

Game starts in an hour....anyone up and watching??

and really I don’t like the new teams into the Big Ten.    The Green and Yellow, wearing BLACK.?  Really???
