Fred Hoiberg wins the first NCAA tournament game in Nebraska history 71 years after his grandfather Jerry Bush accepted the same head coaching job and moved his wife and children, including Fred's mom, to Lincoln, setting all of this in motion. Sports, man.

Is that the worst spot in the history of football?
@HuskerFootball got the first down by atleast a yard, I say 2. What the heck is going on?

The loss of Dr. Rick Holland, @NEGameandParks biologist, was a blow to fisheries research and management, but his impact will live on through a student-centered fund through @UNLSNR

"Perfection is impossible.
In the 1,526 singles matches I played in my career, I won almost 80% of those matches.
But what percentage of points did I win?
54%
In other words, even top ranked tennis players win barely more than half the points they play.
When you lose ever second point on average, you learn not to dwell on every shot.
You teach yourself to think:
'Okay, I double faulted...it's only a point.'
'Okay, I came to the net and I got passed again...it's only a point.'
Even a great shot, an overhead backhand smash that ends up on ESPN's top 10 playlist – that too is just a point.
Here's why I'm telling you this.
When you're playing a point, it has to be the most important thing in the world. And it is.
But when it's behind you, it's behind you.
This mindset is crucial – because it frees you to fully commit to the next point with intensity, clarity, and focus."

Adrian Martinez is UNREAL.
He's got over 300 yards and 3 TD's and we're still in the third quarter.
Drops a 79 yard dime to Kevin Austin for another score. @USFLStallions rolling. #UFL

A TRUE HERO: #Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris helped save a drowning child, and credited AED training:
“I saw people calling 911 so my first question was, where is the AED?" Morris told ESPN on Wednesday, referring to an automatic external defibrillator, which Morris then ran to retrieve. "When I got back, we had a doctor on site that was able to start the compressions. I was able to hand the AED to him, get it open for him, put the pads on the child, and he ended up being OK.”
Morris credited the #Rams' recent CPR, AED, and first aid training facilitated by Reggie Scott, the team's vice president of sports medicine and performance, for helping him be aware of proper protocols and knowing the importance of an AED.
HELL OF A STORY and Raheem is a true hero👏👏👏
