Joe Lunardi’s men’s Bracketology March Madness watch guide

0


By the time Selection Sunday arrives, there will have been plenty of movement in the projected field of 68 for the 2026 NCAA tournament, regarding the teams that are in, as well as those looking to get in.

While our Tuesday and Friday Bracketology updates allow us to look at the race to March Madness holistically twice a week, results every day matter and can affect teams — whether they’re playing or not.

Men’s bracketologist Joe Lunardi is tracking every relevant game every day — and why shouldn’t you?

Here, we provide an inside look at the headlines and upcoming matchups that inform Joey Brackets’ calculations on any given day, as he projects the teams that could have their names called on Selection Sunday (March 15).

A couple of housekeeping things: This page will update every day between Monday and Saturday, with some exceptions. Games are listed in order of importance to bracket movement. A team’s projection on that day is listed in parentheses if not otherwise noted.

Defense secretary Pete Hegseth designates Anthropic a supply chain risk

0


This week, Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal as well as a textbook case of how not to do business with the United States Government or the Pentagon.

Our position has never wavered and will never waver: the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic.

Instead, @AnthropicAI and its CEO @DarioAmodei, have chosen duplicity. Cloaked in the sanctimonious rhetoric of “effective altruism,” they have attempted to strong-arm the United States military into submission – a cowardly act of corporate virtue-signaling that places Silicon Valley ideology above American lives.

The Terms of Service of Anthropic’s defective altruism will never outweigh the safety, the readiness, or the lives of American troops on the battlefield.

Their true objective is unmistakable: to seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military. That is unacceptable.

As President Trump stated on Truth Social, the Commander-in-Chief and the American people alone will determine the destiny of our armed forces, not unelected tech executives.

Anthropic’s stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered.

In conjunction with the President’s directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic’s technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service.

America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.

College baseball 2026: Why Jack Ohman chose to stay at Yale

0


JACK OHMAN WAS anxious last spring. Not because he was a freshman navigating his first collegiate baseball season. Not because his dominance — and scoreless innings streak — was making national headlines. Not because his classes at Yale were overwhelming.

It was because his phone was blowing up. Nonstop.

Name-brand college programs, realizing the 6-foot right-hander, who barely pitched in high school, was the real deal, were trying to convince him to transfer, with promises that they were the right place for his development and bank account. Agents, seeing dollar signs, thirsted to represent the pitcher who had crashed on the national scene possessing a mid-90s fastball with elite carry. Friends and family constantly pinged him to ask if — and where — he was going to transfer.

Ohman admitted he considered leaving the Ivy League for a Power 4 school. And who would blame him? The facilities to improve his skill set there are palatial. The exposure to reach the pros is brighter. The money — unlocked by recent advances in players capitalizing on their name, image and likeness — is tempting.

With rules relaxed in recent years, the transfer portal has made player movement far more common and ethics optional. As Ohman became a top target for the best programs, the onslaught became so intense that his father, Will, considered changing Jack’s phone number.

“The noise was incredible,” said Will Ohman, a former major league left-hander who made 483 relief appearances across 10 seasons.

But Jack Ohman didn’t switch phone numbers — and he didn’t transfer. He notified his coaches last spring, in the midst of one of the greatest freshman seasons in NCAA history, that he was staying in New Haven.

“I talked to a lot of people about it because I didn’t know what to do exactly,” Ohman said. “But I think what fueled my decision was it’s a great group of guys I’m very, very close with. It’s more of a loyalty thing. I think that’s a little bit of a forgotten trait, I guess, in college sports. You don’t see it very often. But I think it’s huge.”

Ohman finished the season with a 1.34 ERA, tops in the nation, across 73⅔ innings, as Yale went 31-14 and won the Ivy League regular-season title. He was named a second-team All-American — the first Yale baseball player to earn an All-America nod since Ryan Lavarnway, a future big league catcher, in 2007 — while vaulting from unknown to a potential first-round pick in Major League Baseball’s 2027 draft.

Last Friday, he launched his sophomore campaign by holding Bethune-Cookman to one earned run in five innings and striking out 10 in Yale’s season-opening loss, putting the Ivy League — and the country — on notice again.

“My coaches took a flier on me,” Ohman, 20, said. “It happened to work out. I became a great pitcher. It would be a little bit disrespectful if I up and left after one year and just threw that all to the wayside because they took a risk on recruiting me. And I’m glad that risk paid off.”


OHMAN WAS ALMOST exclusively a position player at Brophy College Prep in Phoenix. He was a utility man and batted nearly .400 as the team’s leadoff hitter his senior season. He moonlighted as a spot starter and closer, logging 18 innings as a junior and 25 innings his senior season. He showed flashes on the mound but lacked consistency. And yet his father believed he would go furthest as a pitcher.

“It was very obvious, to me, that the ceiling was much higher as a pitcher,” Will Ohman said. “There’s a lot of 6-foot, 170-pound college players. You have to look for separators. His arm was his separator.”

Will Ohman, who runs a baseball training facility in Phoenix, didn’t send his son to showcases until he believed he had sufficient skills to display. So his son attended just two. Yale pitching coach Chris Wojick, also the program’s recruiting coordinator, first saw Ohman pitch at one of them — a showcase for academic standouts the fall before his senior season.

Hardly recruited, Ohman made two official visits to schools: Seattle University and Yale. He committed to Yale soon after traveling to Connecticut. Success did not appear imminent.

“When he arrived at Yale,” Bulldogs head coach Brian Hamm said, “he still had a ways to go in terms of being able to pitch at the college level, let alone make an impact.”

Ohman, according to Wojick, was the worst pitcher on the Bulldogs’ roster during fall workouts in 2024.

His delivery began with a high leg kick resembling former major leaguer Bronson Arroyo that made repeating his delivery difficult, rendering his command inconsistent. He didn’t throw enough strikes, certainly not enough to start games in the Ivy League. His best off-speed pitch was a loopy curveball that popped out of his hand for hitters to recognize and crush — on the rare occasion it found the strike zone.

Then Ohman returned to campus after winter break as a different pitcher.

“The first pitch he threw in live indoor sessions in January was 96 [mph],” Wojick said. “And he was like 91, 92 in the fall. I remember going to our hitting coach, like, ‘Hey come here.’ After that, I sat down with the coaching staff and was like, ‘Hey, Jack’s no longer hitting. He’s going to pitch for us now.’

Ohman eliminated the leg kick, creating a more compact delivery that was easier to repeat. He was stronger from the regular workouts that come with being a Division I athlete. But his curveball was still a problem. He wanted to continue featuring it. Wojick wanted him to try a slider. So in early February, with the season opener around the corner, Wojick sat Ohman down and gave him an ultimatum: Listen to me and become a weekend starter or stay on this path and pitch the fifth inning of inconsequential midweek games.

“It was like, ‘You’re going to pitch garbage innings, period,'” Ohman said. “Like, ‘You suck and we have to pitch you and we have to develop you. But, yeah, you’re going to pitch garbage innings.’ He was trying to light a fire under me and I appreciate that. Clearly, it worked.”

Two days later, Wojick said, Ohman, whose feel for the game as the son of a former major leaguer draws rave reviews, learned a new slider in 10 minutes. The first one he threw during live batting practice was clubbed for a home run. But Ohman made a slight adjustment and struck out the next five hitters. He took the pitch into his first career outing, in relief against Queens University, and notched four strikeouts over 2⅓ innings.

The pitch was different enough from his fastball to generate misses, but Ohman thought there was more room for improvement. So he slightly changed the grip again for his next appearance. The plan was for him to come out of the bullpen again. But when Yale’s scheduled starter for its series finale against The Citadel was too sick to pitch, Wojick told Ohman that morning he was getting the ball.

“My coach came up to me and he’s like, ‘Hey, just give me one inning,'” Ohman recalled. “‘Then we’ll reevaluate. We’re using you as an opener.'”

The pitching plan for that day — and the season — quickly changed. Ohman allowed one hit, walked two and struck out five over five scoreless frames. He earned a rotation spot with the start and did not slow down. Behind the new slider and a mid-90s fastball that, according to Wojick, features an average of 22 inches of induced vertical break — comparable to New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole‘s offering — Ohman didn’t surrender a run over his first 35⅓ innings.

“He kind of Wally Pipp’d the guy that was our starter,” Wojick said. “And then we went from there.”


OHMAN MADE HIS second career start in Yale’s series finale at Rice, where his twin sister Annabel studies physics. With his family in the stands, Ohman shut down the Owls. He yielded three unearned runs on six hits with seven strikeouts across seven innings in Yale’s series-sweeping win.

“It was his big I’m-on-the-scene game,” Will Ohman said. “It was a family reunion. We’re sitting in the stands and he just goes off. And I was like, ‘Oh, my. What I’ve seen on TV, I have seen now live. I can confirm it. Things are going well.'”

Ohman surrendered his first earned run in his sixth start — and seventh appearance — against Brown to snap his streak of 35⅓ scoreless innings to begin his career. By then he had sprung into national prominence.

“Every team in the top 25 was calling me asking if he’s going to go into the portal,” Brophy Prep head baseball coach Josh Garcia said.

The calls and messages flooded Ohman’s phone. SEC coaches, Wojick said, reached out from burners. Agents attempted to persuade him to hop into the portal with them as his representation. The spotlight quickly sprouted from flattering to distracting.

“It was actually getting pretty out of control,” Wojick said. “I would tell you there’s a Big 12 team that was the most aggressive, to the point where they offered his high school coach money to get him into the transfer portal, then offered him a job on their staff if he got him to transfer to that school, plus NIL money.”

Ohman said he made his decision to stay before the end of the season. The accolades soon followed. He was named the Ivy League Pitcher of the Year, the Perfect Game Freshman Pitcher of the Year, a freshman All-American and a Golden Spikes Award semifinalist. When the dust settled, he was in the top 10 of Baseball America’s 2027 MLB draft board.

“I’m extremely proud of him,” Will Ohman said. “He has some really interesting stuff, and we’re going to find out over time if it plays.”

An economics major, Ohman wants to work in baseball when his playing career is over, whenever that is, and hopes to one day become an MLB general manager. To put him on track, he was connected with Theo Epstein, a Yale alum and the architect of two curse-breaking World Series titles in Boston and Chicago, and Ohman has picked his brain.

For now, he’s focused on pitching. While he might pinch hit or enter games as a defensive replacement, most of his work will continue to be on the mound. Yale and Columbia are the favorites to win the Ivy League. Individual expectations are high for Ohman too. He was a consensus preseason All-American and landed on the Golden Spikes Award preseason watch list. He plans on throwing a kick change, a pitch he added to his arsenal last season, more often. Wojick called the pitch “a game changer.”

Last week’s returns were promising. On Friday, he’ll pitch at Pepperdine, his father’s alma mater, in front of his family again. And he’ll do it in a Yale uniform.

“My goal for this season is to prove that I developed last year as a pitcher,” Ohman said. “I’m so much better. I’m a lot better pitcher now than I was a year ago — as I should be.”

Transfer rumors, news: Man United, Chelsea, PSG watch Genk trio

Arsenal are looking to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon ahead of Liverpool and Manchester United, while scouts from clubs including Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain watched three young Racing Genk stars play on Thursday. Join us for the latest transfer news and rumors from around the globe.

TRENDING RUMORS

– Belgian side Racing Genk drew 3-3 with Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League on Thursday and 23 scouts from some of Europe’s top clubs were in the stadium to watch their top talent, says Belgian outlet Sporza. While 18-year-old star midfielder Konstantinos Karetsas was injured, Zakaria El Ouahdi (24), Yaimar Medina (21) and Matte Smets (22) were on the agenda for Chelsea, Ajax, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle, Napoli, Borussia Dortmund and PSG.

Arsenal are ahead of Liverpool and Manchester United in the race to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, according to The Sun. The Gunners believe the 25-year-old would be happy to move to London, with a fee of around £75 million expected to be enough, despite the Magpies demanding £95 million to sign the England international. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is a long-time admirer of Gordon, although signing him could see Brazil winger Gabriel Martinelli leave the Emirates.

– Liverpool and Chelsea are showing serious interest in Nottingham Forest center back Murillo, as reported by TEAMtalk. A summer move is increasingly likely for the 23-year-old if an offer of over £60 million is made, and the Blues are leading the chase as they have conducted extensive groundwork in the last 12 months. Manchester United have shown interest more recently, while Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are also monitoring the situation. In Europe, Bayern Munich have a major interest, and Real Madrid and Barcelona have previously been linked.

Dusan Vlahovic is prioritizing a move to Barcelona, with the Juventus striker preparing to become a free agent when his contract expires in the summer, according to TEAMtalk. Negotiations regarding a contract renewal have repeatedly stalled, despite the 26-year-old maintaining a positive relationship with the Serie A club. That has resulted in widespread interest in the Serbia international as Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, AC Milan, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Internazionale and Roma have all been linked.

Victor Osimhen wants to move to Juventus, but negotiations are difficult because Galatasaray would have to pay Napoli a penalty of up to €70 million if they offload the Nigeria striker to a Serie A club, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport. The clause lasts two years and would drop to €50 million in the second of those, but it currently makes signing the 27-year-old an “impossible dream” for Juve.

EXPERT TAKE

ESPN’s Sam Tighe on a possible move to Arsenal for Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon.

The left wing is an obvious area for Arsenal to target in the transfer market this year. Gabriel Martinelli has struggled to kick on and take that next step, Leandro Trossard is a good option but isn’t that top-level gamebreaker, while manager Mikel Arteta has seemingly designated Ebere Eze as a central attacking midfielder — not a wide man.

The easiest way to elevate this team is to target a top player in this position, and there’s a case that Gordon fits the bill. He’s scored 10 Champions League goals this year, is a regular fixture for England and, crucially, has blazing speed: He’s hit 36.1 km/h this term, per Gradient Sports, a mark that tops all other Premier League players.

The concern here, understandably, should be the fee. After very few of the nine players who transferred between English clubs for £50 million or more this term have proved anything close to good value (so far), £75 million or more takes things up another notch. Gordon would have to be spectacular to prove worth that sort of outlay.

Anthropic refuses Pentagon’s new terms, standing firm on lethal autonomous weapons and mass surveillance

0


Less than 24 hours before the deadline in an ultimatum issued by the Pentagon, Anthropic has refused the Department of Defense’s demands for unrestricted access to its AI.

It’s the culmination of a dramatic exchange of public statements, social media posts, and behind-the-scenes negotiations, coming down to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s desire to renegotiate all AI labs’ current contracts with the military. But Anthropic, so far, has refused to back down from its two current red lines: no mass surveillance of Americans, and no lethal autonomous weapons (or weapons with license to kill targets with no human oversight whatsoever). OpenAI and xAI had reportedly already agreed to the new terms, while Anthropic’s refusal had led to CEO Dario Amodei being summoned to the White House this week for a meeting with Hegseth himself, in which the Secretary reportedly issued an ultimatum to the CEO to back down by the end of business day on Friday or else.

In a statement late Thursday, Amodei wrote, “I believe deeply in the existential importance of using AI to defend the United States and other democracies, and to defeat our autocratic adversaries. Anthropic has therefore worked proactively to deploy our models to the Department of War and the intelligence community.”

He added that the company has “never raised objections to particular military operations nor attempted to limit use of our technology in an ad hoc manner” but that in a “narrow set of cases, we believe AI can undermine, rather than defend, democratic values” — going on to specifically mention mass domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons. (Amodei mentioned that “partial autonomous weapons … are vital to the defense of democracy” and that fully autonomous weapons may eventually “prove critical for our national defense,” but that “today, frontier AI systems are simply not reliable enough to power fully autonomous weapons.” He did not rule out Anthropic acquiescing to the military’s use of fully autonomous weapons in the future but mentioned that they were not ready now.)

The Pentagon had already reportedly asked major defense contractors to assess their dependence on Anthropic’s Claude, which could be seen as the first step to designating the company a “supply chain risk” – a public threat that the Pentagon had made recently (and a classification usually reserved for threats to national security). The Pentagon was also reportedly considering invoking the Defense Production Act to make Anthropic comply.

Amodei wrote in his statement that the Pentagon’s “threats do not change our position: we cannot in good conscience accede to their request.” He also wrote that “should the Department choose to offboard Anthropic, we will work to enable a smooth transition to another provider, avoiding any disruption to ongoing military planning, operations, or other critical missions. Our models will be available on the expansive terms we have proposed for as long as required.”

Paris Jackson, Mom Debbie Rowe: Photos

0


Paris Jackson is not alone.

After all, the 27-year-old daughter of the late Michael Jackson spent some time with her mom Debbie Rowe, sharing photos of their sweet reunion on her Instagram Story Feb. 26.

One image showed Paris wearing a red jacket featuring a Navajo-inspired pattern while posing next to Debbie, who sported a coordinating plaid flannel.

In another snapshot, the pair were pictured in matching cream-colored tops, with Paris writing in the caption alongside a heart emoji, “Lately.”

Along with her brothers Prince Jackson, 29, and Bigi Jackson, 24, Paris was primarily raised by her dad Michael until his death in 2009 at age 50. She was reintroduced to Debbie—who gave up custody as part of her 1999 divorce with the “Thriller” singer—during her teenage years.

“When I was really, really young, my mom didn’t exist,” Paris recalled in a 2017 interview with Rolling Stone, explaining that she started asking Michael about her biological mother when she realized that “a man can’t birth a child.”

Giants’ Bader autographs food truck dented by spring training home run

0


PHOENIX (AP) — That was quite a dinger for Harrison Bader, who left a mark with his first home run for the San Francisco Giants this spring training.

Bader’s 408-foot homer to left field in the Giants’ 13-12 loss against Milwaukee on Wednesday put a visible dent near the top on the side of a food truck. After exiting the game, the center fielder visited that concession area, met the truck’s owner and — instead of partaking in an acai bowl — added his autograph just below where the ball hit on the fly.

After climbing up, Bader signed his name along with his number and added: “Sorry.”

“It’s just a random, funny thing,” Bader told reporters.

Bader, who is set to play for Israel in the World Baseball Classic, joined the Giants last month after agreeing to a $20.5 million, two-year contract.

The 31-year-old, a Gold Glove winner with St. Louis in 2021, batted .277 with 17 home runs, 54 RBIs and a .796 OPS in 146 games with the Minnesota Twins and Philadelphia Phillies in 2025.
