The head coach of the national champion Florida Gators, 39-year-old Todd Golden, was earlier this season the subject of a Title IX investigation into his behavior after accusations of sexual harassment, sexual exploitation and stalking. Florida’s Title IX office adjudicated the case in January after a months-long investigation into the allegations, saying it found “no evidence” he violated Title IX.

Its findings instead eliminated a narrow scope of the allegations related to Title IX — behavior perpetrated within a university…
Last month, the Florida Gators won their third basketball title in program history. Led by standout guard Walter Clayton Jr., the Gators captured their first national title since going back-to-back in the mid-2000s. Meanwhile, while Florida basketball has made three of the last five NCAA championships, the football team has just one bowl game victory since 2021.

Trainers immediately guided him into the clubhouse, and moments later, the Astros posted a cryptic update: “Altuve will not return tonight. Evaluation underway.” But the real storm hit online. As fans realized Altuve might be out for an extended period,…

A late-night social media post reading, “Time to do what’s best for me,” followed by…
