Prayers to the entire Reng family and all who knew Deng. Great competitor who is gone way too soon. RIP 🙏
Today, we are saddened by the passing of Ferris State Basketball alum Deng Reng, who was lost this weekend in a traffic accident. He was a true Bulldog, an awesome teammate and a great person. Thoughts with his family, friends & past teammates! @FerrisMBBALL

The amount of broken bat or bloop hits the Brewers get against the Cubs is truly astounding and yet I hope like heck to see them in October.

Lake state mens basketball would settle for a mere 1 million purchase price …
Josh Paster says don’t buy an NBA team in Las Vegas, buy his UNLV basketball squad. “Buy the college basketball team. It’s legal now. You can be the owner of @TheRunninRebels and it’s a lot less expensive... “I’m asking for $10 to $12 million to own our team..” 🎥: @TaylorRochaTV

Unbelievably disappointing. Spring Arbor administration had a slam dunk hire with Ted Stowe who not only is an alum, but served as an associate head coach for Coach Cottingham. Coach Stowe and the current SAU players deserve better.
