Ncaa senior vp releases statement on former nba player amari baileys planned college return
after news broke of former nba player amari bailey’s plans for a college return, the ncaa released a statement. Senior vp of external affairs tim buckley addressed the situation, as well as the association’s eligibility rules.
on3’s joe tipton confirmed bailey is planning to try and return to college basketball three years after the charlotte hornets selected him in the second round of the 2023 nba draft out of ucla. He appeared in 10 games with the franchise before spending time in the nba g-league.
in his statement friday, buckley doubled down on the ncaa’s stance regarding eligibility for athletes who played in an nba game or signed an nba contract. He also further called for congress to step in and help protect the ncaa from further litigation.

“the ncaa has not and will not grant eligibility to any players who have signed an nba contract,” buckley wrote on x. “Congress can strengthen ncaa rules so professional athletes cannot sue their way back to competing against college students.”
bailey played the 2022-23 season at ucla. He averaged 11.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game while shooting 49.5% from the field and 38.9% from three-point territory. He then declared for the nba draft and became a second-round pick by the hornets, appearing in 10 games as a rookie.

| Missouri banking on home floor vs. Mississippi State - CBS Sports |

Missouri banking on home floor vs. Mississippi state by flm jan 30, 2026 at 7:17 pm et • 1 min read join the conversation comments now playing share share video link copied! Missouri hopes to regain its shooting touch when it returns home to face mississippi state on saturday afternoon in columbia, mo.
the tigers (14-7, 4-4 southeastern conference) are 12-1 at home this season. They will try to exploit that homecourt advantage against the bulldogs (11-10, 3-5) after getting blown out 90-64 at alabama on tuesday night.
missouri missed 15 of 23 free throws in that loss and 17 of 21 shots from 3-point range. Forward mark mitchell missed 7 of 8 free-throw attempts and both of the 3-point shots he tried.
you cant go on the road and go 8-for-23 from the free-throw line, missouri coach dennis gates said. Mark mitchell is not a 1-8 guy. But ultimately, thats where it was in those percentages. You gotta be able to execute, especially early, from that free throw line.
during his friday media session, gates said his team was making free throws during their two productive days of practice after the alabama loss. But he quipped, youve probably got to sage the rims at this point.
the tigers are led by mitchell (17.4 points, 5.5 rebounds per game) and guard jayden stone (14.9 ppg, 5.5 rpg). T.O barrett supplanted anthony robinson ii as the starting point guard while scoring 34 points in the last two games.
the bulldogs snapped their five-game losing streak by banging out an 80-66 victory at lsu wednesday night. Coach chris jans hopes his team can duplicate that rugged effort moving forward.
we felt good, we got off to a great start, the energy was good at shootaround, the focus was good, we kept it simple with the goals of just competing, jans said. No matter what it looks like, just compete harder.
that confidence gets in your bloodstream and really helps. But if we can figure out a way to keep doing this, well have better results. The thing that sticks out the most is our rebounding. We were really good against a physical, big team and we punched them in the face pretty good. It kind of set the tone that way.
mississippi state outrebounded lsu 43-24 and the bulldogs took a 76-51 into the final seven minutes of the game.
the bulldogs are led by their experienced backcourt of josh hubbard (20.7 points per game) and jayden epps (14.8 ppg).

Real madrid vs rayo vallecano preview: start time, team news, how to watch, live stream & odds
real madrid are back in la liga action after their midweek disaster in the champions league. They face a tricky game against rayo vallecano on february 1 at the bernabeu.
the expectation is that there will be plenty of whistles and boos from the crowd after the 4-2 loss to benfica on january 28. The defeat meant los blancos will have to play in the playoffs again to try to get to the round of 16. They were drawn against benfica, hoping for a change of fortunes.
their last la liga game went much better, as they beat villarreal 2-0 on the road. It kept them one point behind barcelona at the top of the standings. The catalan side will face elche before, looking to put the pressure on madrid.
despite the champions league drama, real madrid have won all three la liga games to start the season, getting them back in the title race. Vallecano are another challenge, a team they have beaten just once in their last five games, drawing four.
los franjirrojos are struggling this season, sitting in 17th place, and european football may not be helping their league form. They have won one of their last four games, losing the latest 3-1 at home to osasuna.

real madrid team news
real madrid will welcome back aurélien tchouaméni after his suspension against villarreal. The frenchman played against benfica, so it will be interesting to see if eduardo camavinga comes back in.
alvaro arbeloa is hoping to have back antonio rudiger and trent alexander-arnold. If they both make the bench, they may get minutes if real madrid are in control of the game. Eder militao and ferland mendy are both still out injured.

| Will Stein Joins Kentucky Basketball Amid Major Coaching Shift |
| Posted on Saturday, January 31 @ 00:01:05 PST (5 reads) | |
|
|
At kentucky, the days of tension between the football and basketball programs appear to be firmly in the rearview mirror. If there were any lingering concerns that new football head coach will stein might stir up echoes of the old calipari-stoops friction, you can go ahead and put those to rest.
stein isn’t just embracing the kentucky culture - he’s been living it for a long time.
“i’m the biggest kentucky basketball fan you will ever meet,” stein said, with the kind of enthusiasm that doesn’t sound rehearsed. “I went to tubby smith basketball camp like four times.
i won the hot shot award. I won the free-throw competition.”
that’s not just lip service - that’s a guy who grew up immersed in big blue nation. And now, as the leader of the football program, he’s making it clear that his support extends beyond the gridiron.
“hey, i hope every single program wins,” stein continued. “Basketball, baseball, football, women’s [sports], volleyball, gymnastics - you name it. I want this to be the best athletic program in the country, which i believe it is and will continue to be.”
that kind of all-in mentality is exactly what kentucky fans want to hear, especially in an era where athletic departments thrive on unity and cross-sport collaboration. For stein, its not just about building a winning football team - its about contributing to a winning culture across the board.
“that is the attitude every coach on campus should have,” he said. “When you are all pushing for each other, pushing toward the goal of winning, you can accomplish special things. That is exactly what kentucky is looking to do.”
backing the boss: stein on mitch barnhart
stein’s team-first approach doesn’t stop with his fellow coaches. When asked about athletic director mitch barnhart - a figure who’s faced his share of scrutiny in recent years - stein didn’t hesitate to show his appreciation.
“i work for the best president, best ad in the country,” he said. “These guys have done everything and more to support us, and i feel really good about the future - making sure that we keep pushing the envelope.”
that “envelope” includes everything from recruiting to player retention to building a top-tier coaching staff. And stein made it clear that the administration is giving him the tools to do just that.
“they’ve resourced me definitely in a good way,” he said. “To feel like we can push the envelope with player acquisition, retention, and then building the best coaching staff possible.”
in a college football landscape that’s constantly shifting - with the transfer portal, nil, and coaching turnover all in play - having alignment between the head coach and the athletic department isn’t just helpful, it’s essential. And right now, kentucky appears to have that alignment in place.
for stein, who’s juggling the demands of a new job, assembling a staff, and navigating the portal, that support from the top is more than just a luxury - it’s a foundation.
mitch barnhart, who is eligible to step down any time after the summer, remains a key figure in the current setup. But for now, it sounds like the football program and the administration are pulling in the same direction - and that’s a promising sign for kentucky fans hoping to see the wildcats make noise on the national stage.
from hoops camp free-throw champ to head football coach, will stein’s journey is uniquely kentucky. And if his words are any indication, he’s not just here to win games - he’s here to elevate the entire athletic department. |

| Immigration enforcement is keeping kids from athletics |

High school sports have felt the widespread impact of the federal immigration crackdown in maine.
coaches hurrying student-athletes onto buses to ensure they are quickly off public streets. Marked drop-offs at indoor track facilities. An abundance of student-athletes missing practices and games across all sports because they don’t feel safe getting to and from school. Athletic and school administrators scrambling to make sure their venues are secure, and having plans in place just in case.
the enhanced u.S. Immigration and customs enforcement operation in maine, dubbed “operation catch of the day,” has been the front-burner issue for student-athletes, coaches, and athletic administrators — especially in the greater portland area.
“as a community, there was just a heightened sense of, you might say, anxiety and concern for the well-being of our students who were dealing with what was happening,” said todd livingston, athletic director at south portland high.
sen. Susan collins stated early thursday that the enhanced ice operations in maine are over. Federal authorities announced thursday they had arrested 206 people in maine.
advocacy groups and civic leaders have said continued caution is necessary, noting regular immigration enforcement and border patrol activities were happening before the surge in enforcement personnel and will continue.
but there are signs that the overall anxiety and fear felt by students is lessening. Reports of active ice operations have slowed. After days of “pretty significant” attendance declines at south portland, livingston said “there was an uptick in attendance (wednesday) and it was even better (thursday). That’s a positive.”
attendance declines hit sports
“as the athletic director, the information that i’ve received is that attendance is down 5% from what it would normally have been. That has absolutely impacted some of our teams,” said mark campbell, the athletic director westbrook high.
attendance drops have been much steeper elsewhere.
portland public schools said more than 1,100 students district wide were absent last friday, a 10% increase in absenteeism compared to the rate for the first half of january. South portland, and biddeford, have also reported noticeable attendance declines.
lewiston high athletic director jason fuller said wednesday night that attendance declines at his school have been “very minimal,” and the messaging continues to be that school is a safe place.
the impact of those absences were obvious at last saturday’s regularly scheduled indoor track meet at the university of southern maine between portland, south portland, deering and the cheverus/waynflete co-operative team.
overall entries for the three public schools were down 13.4% compared to the previous week’s meets at usm, held three days before the ice crackdown in maine began.
the south portland girls team’s total entries dropped from 114 to 86, a 24.6% decrease. Deering’s boys’ entries declined from 66 to 50, another 24% drop. Athletes can enter up to three events in one meet. Portland’s entries declined by 14% for boys and nearly 16% for girls. As an example, 30 south portland girls competed in the 55-meter dash on jan. 17. The next week, 19 entered the same race.
“the biggest impact was with our indoor track teams. We had much fewer athletes at that meet,” livingston said.
joe russo has been portland’s boys basketball coach for 36 seasons. In that time, many students who have immigrated to portland have worn the bulldogs’ uniform. As a veteran coach with over 500 wins, russo is accustomed to having players miss practices and games because of injury or illness.
this is different. Up to five players on the roster of 30 have stopped going to school or practice, kept home by fearful parents, russo said.
“this is more heartfelt. This is a very unfortunate situation,” russo said. “It’s out of our control, so i wish i could do more. Protect the kids better. … They’re nervous and i don’t blame them.”
preparing for tournament time
maine’s high school boys and girls basketball tournaments in february are the state’s marquee high school sports events. Throughout the school vacation week, thousands of spectators descend on four neutral site facilities to watch their sons and daughters, their friends’ kids, their classmates.
building security is always a concern. Creating a positive environment for the student-athletes is a priority, whether it’s at the portland expo or the cross insurance arena in portland, the augusta civic center, or the cross insurance center in bangor.
those facilities now have to face the difficult task of preparing for the possibility that ice agents could disrupt high school championships, said patrick bolduc, event coordinator at the augusta civic center.
“there are so many variables it’s really been quite complicated,” he said. “It’s something we’re trying to figure out, especially with the tournaments coming up. That’s thousands of people coming in and out for two weeks.”
bolduc said his facility can control access to many areas inside the facility. But they are working to define what is public space and what is private space. Outside the arena is definitely public space where federal immigration officers could make arrests without any warrants.
the athletes will enter the building through a secure, separate entrance, as they have done for years at the acc — and also at both portland venues.
“the athletes are the ones i’m least concerned about,” bolduc said. “We have a designated area where they enter. They’re away from everybody and that entrance is behind a gated area as well. I don’t see that as an issue. But we will have security in that area. We always do.”
the maine principals’ association rents the large venues for its basketball tournaments, as well as college sites, like at bates college and usm for indoor track meets, and colby college for swimming.
the mpa is actively working with facilities and local law enforcement to make sure they know each building’s protocols, said mike burnham, the mpa’s executive director for interscholastic activities.
“we want to make sure what we do follows what each one of those communities and facilities follow,” burnham said “we’ve got to do the planning. We’ve got to be prepared. We’re not creating our own policy.”
“it’s not about a basketball game. It’s bigger. We all understand that,” burnham said.
some historical context
federal immigration agents began targeting maine with increased presence and intensity on jan. 20. Authorities said they had targeted 1,400 immigrants for apprehension who are criminals or in the country illegally.
with masked federal agents wearing tactical gear spotted on the streets, some parents have stopped going to jobs in order to keep their school-age children home.
“it is because they are afraid to just basically do the normal things they would do because of the possible repercussions to come down the line. That’s no way for a city or people to have to live,” said rocco “rocky” frenzilli, portland high’s boys soccer coach.
frenzilli, 77, started portland’s soccer program in 1972 and has welcomed immigrant students for nearly as long.
“always have and always will,” frenzilli said.
“we were on the crux of this whole situation when the refugees first started to come to the united states, the vietnamese, the cambodians, then the eastern europeans,” frenzilli says. “I’ve had nothing but the utmost respect for these people coming in and doing what they’re doing and raising their kids.”
frenzilli is a life-long portland resident, growing up in east deering where there was a large italian-american population.
“how many times do you think i was called an immigrant slur growing up?” Frenzilli said, noting that while he faced bigotry and prejudice he and his family didn’t fear being deported because of their ethnicity.
“exactly. My parents and grandparent came here legally and they did everything they needed to do and they started to build a future for their family.
“if i’m not mistaken here, these people are trying to do the same exact thing,” frenzilli said, noting “i really feel these kids and these people are good for the city.”
in south portland, livingston echoed frenzilli’s sentiments.
“we love our community and our students and our families and i’m glad to see they’re returning to schools and we try to support them anyway we can.” |

The weaver farm uses solar power and advanced irrigation systems. He was indiana district representative for the soybean development council. Weaver said that he has learned it’s “not what we do, but how we get there.”
weaver said, “sports give those students who may not be academically minded a good coach to lead and guide and mentor them, keep them in school.” He then said coach bob dubois “not only taught you how to play the game,” but when weaver was in the hospital after a serious injury playing basketball, dubois was the coach who came to visit him.
