Deion Sanders is entering his fourth season as Colorado's head coach, hoping to transform his 3-29 football team into a consistent winning program beginning in 2026.
As we prepare for the 2026 season, everyone is updating their head coach rankings, with Sanders ranked No. 54 nationally in one ranking and the seventh-best coach in the Big 12. CBS Sports updated its Big 12 coach rankings as well, with Coach Prime landing at No. 13 (No. 60 nationally) on the list. Sanders dropped 27 spots in the national rankings and six in the Big 12 after last season.
Sanders falls surprisingly behind Iowa State's Jimmy Rogers, but ahead of UCF's Scott Frost, Utah's Morgan Scalley and Kansas State's Collin Klein.
Here's what CBS Sports' Cody Nagel had to say about its ranking:
No Power Four coach saw his stock fall further after last season than Sanders. He dropped 27 spots in the national rankings and six in the Big 12, tied for the largest decline since Herm Edwards (-34) in 2022. The drop comes one year after Sanders was the biggest riser in the Power Four (+28), perfectly illustrating the up-and-down trajectory of his tenure in Boulder.

LIV Golf 1.0 — the era of big talk and bigger paychecks — is over. Whatever comes next for the breakaway tour, cut loose by Saudi Arabian funding and now on the hunt for outside investment, the days of "Golf But Louder" are done.
Without a doubt, LIV fundamentally changed the structure of men's professional golf, forcing the PGA Tour into reworking its entire structure, schedule and financial model. LIV altered the professional arcs of some of the game's greatest players, gave others the opportunity to destroy their own reputations, and provided a pathway back to prominence for the once-lost Anthony Kim. LIV also brought the concept of sportswashing into the mainstream of the American sports conversation, forcing sports fans to decide just how much politics they were willing to accept with their sports.
That's a ****** of an impact in just a few short years, but that also leads into another LIV lesson: the impossibility of competing with the established American sports framework. Even a league funded by bottomless oil wealth ultimately couldn't compete with a vulnerable legacy organization.
So what does that mean? Competing with the PGA Tour is a lost cause for LIV, so coexistence is now the only path forward. And if LIV is going to survive and thrive in the years to come, version 2.0 will need to learn from the mistakes of its predecessor. And oh, are there plenty of lessons to learn.
LIV Golf fired off the tee in 2021 with swagger, attitude and arrogance, largely mirroring the personality of firebrand Greg Norman. Longtime PGA Tour antagonists like Norman and Phil Mickelson spoke openly (and in court filings) of wanting to upend the Tour's entire business model, torching the very house in which they'd grown wealthy. That didn't sit well with Tour traditionalists, and the badass playacting came off as more silly than intimidating. You're smacking a little white ball around a field, gentlemen. Let's not pretend this is armed combat.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner's financial legacy is a classic study in how huge cultural fame doesn't always translate into a massive fortune. After soaring to stardom at age 14 as Theo Huxtable on "The Cosby Show," he spent the next four decades consistently working as an actor, director and Grammy-winning musician. Yet, despite his enduring career and broad household recognition, his overall wealth never quite reached the blockbuster heights many ******* umed. When he tragically drowned at age 54 while on a family vacation in Costa Rica in July 2025, he left behind an estate worth only a fraction of public expectations.
A year after his passing, that estate has found itself wrapped up in legal drama. His widow is currently suing his mother over a family trust dating back to 1996 and an unfulfilled prenuptial agreement. Examining Malcolm-Jamal Warner's net worth uncovers the full story of his career earnings, the actual ******* ets he left behind and the complicated legal battle now dividing his family over his estate.
The honest answer is that no one outside the cast knows the exact figures. Residual payments to individual actors were never made public. Still, two things are clear. The show itself was a syndication machine, and the checks have largely stopped.
The scale was staggering. In 1988, local stations paid a then-record $500 million for the rerun rights, TV Guide reported. That came to nearly $4 million per episode across 172 markets. Bill Cosby held a 20% equity stake, and he earned roughly $166 million from that single deal. Over the decades, the series generated more than $1.5 billion in global syndication revenue.
Those syndication numbers belong to the show and its creator, though, not to the young cast. They also explain why Malcolm-Jamal Warner's net worth never reached Cosby-level heights. Actors instead earn residuals on a sliding scale that shrinks with each rerun, and specific amounts stay private. Warner's cut, like that of castmates such as Phylicia Rashad and Joseph C. Phillips, was never disclosed.

Kristin Cavallari's Mallorca vacation photos prompted another round of questions about her relationship with Southern Charm cast member Austen Kroll.
Kroll appeared alongside Cavallari and several friends in one photograph from the trip, leading some Instagram users to ask whether the carousel represented a romantic "hard launch."
Cavallari had already addressed that possibility in an Instagram Story filmed earlier in the vacation. After turning the camera toward Kroll, she described them as "just friends" and said she wanted to get ahead of the inevitable speculation.
The two reality television personalities have faced dating rumors before, but both have repeatedly described their relationship as a friendship.
Cavallari traveled to the Spanish island with longtime friend and celebrity hairstylist Justin Anderson, Kroll and several other companions. Images documented sightseeing stops, waterfront meals and time spent near the sea. Page Six described the Mallorca visit as part of Cavallari's European summer vacation with Anderson and other friends.

When it comes to dating an actor, part of the territory involves supporting them at their latest premieres, so it works out well when the other person in the relationship is also, well, an actor.
On Monday evening in New York City, Andrew Garfield was playing the part of a good boyfriend when he attended the premiere of the upcoming rom-com One Night Only at SVA Theater, which stars his current girlfriend, Monica Barbaro.

The Bianconeri had only one new signing in the starting XI in Hong Kong, defender Zeki Celik, and overall looked a long way off the side that will be picked for competitive games this season.
It was nonetheless a positive to beat Chelsea 1-0 with the Edon Zhegrova curler, and keep another clean sheet in their summer tests.

Max Verstappen's future has been the topic of heated conversation for well over 18 months now, dating back to his last Formula 1 world championship triumph in 2024.
The four-time world champion, the outstanding driver of his generation, officially has a £50m-a-year contract with Red Bull until the end of the 2028 season.
However, the Dutchman is motivated by competitiveness. Red Bull have been unable to provide him with a top-tier car in the last two seasons, as illustrated by their constructors' finishing spot: third last year and, at the 2026 summer break, fourth this year. As such, Verstappen is being linked with a move away.
The futures of Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso are shrouded in speculation (Getty)
There is other "silly season" speculation too: Carlos Sainz is understandably disappointed with Williams' poor start to the season and is said to be looking elsewhere, while Fernando Alonso looks to be on the brink of retirement given Aston Martin's torrid plight.

Jennifer Lopez reportedly wants the world to know she is still in demand after her split from Ben Affleck. According to a source, JLo is looking to prove that she is a "hot Hollywood" catch on the dating scene. The "On The Floor" hitmaker and Affleck, who rekindled their romance in 2021 and married in 2022, made headlines when reports of their separation surfaced in 2024. Their divorce was finalized in January 2025.
Jennifer Lopez made her Wimbledon debut on July 12. According to RadarOnline sources, the pop icon showed up hoping to connect with an A-list partner as a way to refresh her brand. Lopez caused a stir talking to Tom Hiddleston at the men's final. As per an insider, she asked to sit beside the "Loki" star.
"Everything she does is focused on getting attention," said the source. "She's single, so of course she wants to meet someone, but she doesn't want to date just anyone. She's on a mission to link up with a man that can actually help raise her profile and status."
Lopez's marriage to Ben Affleck ended in the summer of 2024, only two years after they said, "I do." In spring 2025, she started dating rumors with Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein. However, sources claim that she didn't consider the 46-year-old actor a high-profile enough match to give her brand a lift.
"She knows what will get the most eyes on her so that was a big part of it, but she's also looking to expand her social circle so she can get more dates and Tom is very well connected," explained the insider.

BOSTON — As the Red Sox re-adjust their roster after making three trades ahead of Monday's deadline, they've decided to move on from a rookie who has been with them all season.
Reliever Ryan Watson, a Rule 5 pick who has appeared in 35 games for Boston, has been designated for ******* ignment, sources said Tuesday. Newcomer Erik Miller, acquired in the trade that sent Marcelo Mayer to San Francisco, will take his place in the bullpen.
The Red Sox also optioned infielder Romy Gonzalez to Triple-A to make room for outfielder Eli White, who was acquired from Atlanta. Backup catcher Jake Rogers will be added to the active roster, taking the spot vacated by Carlos Narváez, who was traded to Baltimore in a package for Adley Rutschman. Rutschman is on the 15-day injured list with wrist inflammation.
The Watson move also clears a 40-man roster spot.
The Red Sox took a flier on Watson, 28, in December when they traded infield prospect Justin Riemer to the A's for him after that club had selected him in the Rule 5 draft. Watson won a roster spot after an up-and-down spring training and has largely served a multi-inning, mop-up role all season. In 55 ⅔ innings, the Alabama native posted a 4.53 ERA and 43 strikeouts. He struggled early but had logged a 3.40 ERA and 33 strikeouts in his last 39 ⅔ innings dating back to April 28. Fifteen of his 35 outings were for two innings or more.

Pete Davidson seems to have found a new love interest three months after his split from Elsie Hewitt.
On Monday night, the comedian was spotted in Brooklyn with Love Thy Nader star Sarah Jane Nader. In a video obtained by Deuxmoi, the two appeared to be walking very close to one another before Pete, dressed in an oversized blue t-shirt and sweatpants, opened his car's passenger door for the reality star, who was wearing a white corset top and a pair of heels.
Their outing comes just months after Pete and Elsie called it quits a little over a year after they began dating.
ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGA
Their relationship issues allegedly began after the birth of their daughter, Scottie Rose, who was born in December 2025. Pete was reportedly being pulled in different directions, with an insider saying his work schedule started to come between his time with Elsie and Scottie. Just days before the news broke, Pete was in Los Angeles filming The Roast of Kevin Hart, skipping out on Mother's Day with his family.

Gracie Abrams used to worry that being happy would make it hard for her to write songs. Turns out the opposite was true, as she tells Rolling Stone for her new cover story.
Gracie is currently dating Irish actor Paul Mescal. She says before they got together, she had "far less experience sitting down to write when I was filled with security and joy and love and safety."
"And I was like, 'Oh, s***, how am I going to approach this?' Or, you know, 'How's it going to impact the quantity of songs I write?'" she continues. "And it's had the most amazing effect on my writing. It has given me the most amount of **** e to reflect on everything in my life."
She continues, "It has held a mirror to me in ways that I didn't know a relationship with another person of any kind could. It has given me all the perspective that I could have ever hoped for, on previous relationships, on my relationship with my family, on my friendships. It is the greatest gift, period."
The couple's relationship has put them under public scrutiny, even more than they were before. And while you'd think Gracie would be used to that, as the daughter of famed director JJ Abrams, that's not the case. She tells Rolling Stone that any time she spent in the public eye as a child was "very contained." She adds that she didn't even know what her father did for a living until her elementary school classmates asked her for insights on Lost, one of his shows.

Emily Willis's mother, Yesenia Cooper, has shared an update on the current progress of her daughter's recovery.
As you'll recall, previous reports dating back to early 2024 revealed that Willis, a former adult film star, had been found unresponsive in her room at a rehab center in Malibu where she had been receiving treatment for ketamine addiction. Legal action followed, with the AVN Award winner's family recently reaching a $3 million settlement with the facility.
Now, per a report from TMZ citing Cooper, Willis's health is showing noteworthy improvements, though she is still unable to communicate verbally. Instead, she's said to be communicating with head and eye movements, with her mother cited in the Thursday (July 30) report as estimating that her daughter can presently understand roughly 80 percent of what's happening.
Willis, who's working with therapists in Mexico at the moment, is said to be in the process of relearning to walk after enduring numerous surgeries. Additional procedures, possibly in Spain, are also said to potentially be on the horizon. For now, Willis is still not able to eat without **** istance, but she has continued to show improvements more generally, including sleeping on her own and watching TV.

By Samia Nakhoul
BEIRUT, Aug 3 (Reuters) - Iran is betting it can outlast Washington by turning the Middle East's trade routes, shipping lanes and energy infrastructure into pressure points that steadily raise the cost of confrontation, according to Gulf officials and ***** ysts.
Rather than seeking a decisive military victory, Tehran is pursuing a strategy of calibrated escalation aimed at widening the conflict without triggering full-scale war.
The goal, they say, is to convince the United States and its allies that containing the crisis is more costly than accommodating Iran's demands over the Strait of Hormuz.
The message from Tehran is that unless Washington accepts a new status quo that gives Iran a greater role in Hormuz, the conflict could spread beyond the Gulf.

*Editor's Note: The Valparaiso men's basketball team is taking a foreign tour trip to The Bahamas this summer. Sophomore guard Rakim Chaney is journaling his and the team's experiences for Mid-Major Madness.
What's going on, everybody? My name is Rakim Chaney. I am a sophomore on the Valpo men's basketball team, and I will be updating you guys this week each day throughout our trip here in Nassau, The Bahamas.
Saturday, we left Valpo early around 7 a.m. and got to the O'Hare Airport to check in and begin boarding for our flight. We arrived in Nassau around 3 p.m. and headed to our hotel at the Baha Mar Resort.
We took our first few minutes to check in our bags and into our rooms before meeting each other in our team room to go over the general Baha Mar rules and our team rules for the trip. After the meeting, a few other guys and I checked out the Pizza Pub Restaurant in the resort, and it was pretty good.
We then got a chance to check out some parts of the resort, and I went to go spend some time with my family who drove down the street from their hotel.

Aaron Rodgers is shedding new light on his personal life, revealing that his wife played a pivotal role in repairing his strained relationship with his family. Last month, the NFL quarterback posted photos with family members and received an overwhelmingly positive response from his followers, who were happy to see the decade-long feud had finally been resolved.
After years of reported estrangement from his family dating back to late 2014, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers surprised fans in July by posting photos with them on social media.
On August 1, the athlete talked about the reunion in a conversation with NFL Network's Kyle Brandt. The host said he was "genuinely moved" when he saw Rodgers' post and the effect it had on him.
Rodgers said he's been having conversations about it for years, adding that his mystery wife, Brittani, played a role in the family reconciliation. "A big part of it was getting married, and having those conversations with my wife that allowed me to kind of open up to the possibility of coming together," he answered.
He added that he prefers to keep his personal life private, but he wanted to "shut down" a narrative that has gone on too long. Rodgers said the love and support Brittani has given him urged him to reconnect with family members whom he admittedly missed.
