Men’s March Madness Saturday takeaways: How Michigan won

Men’s March Madness Saturday takeaways: How Michigan won


Which teams are moving on to the Sweet 16?

ESPN reporters across the country are recapping how each second-round game is decided Saturday.


How Michigan State won: Jeremy Fears Jr. cemented his place in Michigan State history as the Spartans marched on to the Sweet 16 with a win over Louisville. With his 16 assists, Fears became the first Big Ten player in the last 50 years with 27 dishes over a two-game NCAA tournament span, passing Michigan State’s Magic Johnson (25 in the 1979 Sweet 16 and Elite Eight). Fears’ 16 assists are also the most by a Big Ten player in an NCAA tournament game in the last 50 years.

Forward Coen Carr also played a significant role in the win, recording a double-double (21 points and 10 rebounds), and joining Carson Cooper‘s performance in the first round to become the first duo Michigan State has had with 20-point double-doubles in an NCAA tournament since 1979 (Johnson and Greg Kelser).

The absence of guard Mikel Brown Jr. caught up to Louisville as Michigan State was able to limit the Cardinals’ offense that had averaged 79 points per game without him (41.3% from the field). Louisville also sent Michigan State to the foul line a significant amount, with the Spartans making 14-19 (Cardinals were 4-6 from line). — Alaina Getzenberg


How Michigan won: Led by Yaxel Lendeborg, Michigan pulled away in the second half of its game against Saint Louis to advance to its 16th Sweet 16 with a 95-72 win. While the Billikens kept up with the Wolverines in the first half and early in the second, Michigan’s shooting (55.7% from the field) and defense forced Saint Louis to take a significant number of 3s, but it struggled to make them fall, going 10-for-32 from deep. Billikens center Robbie Avila went 3-for-10 from the perimeter but had five assists and left the court to “Robbie” cheers.

The Wolverines had nine blocks, their most in an NCAA tournament game since blocks were first tracked in 1985-86, and outrebounded the Billikens 42-27. Lendeborg scored 25 points and became the first Michigan player with 25-plus points and no turnovers in an NCAA tournament game since Glen Rice (1989). Michigan is now the first Big Ten team to record back-to-back NCAA tournament games with 90-plus points since title-winning 1989 Michigan. — Alaina Getzenberg

Prosecutors say they found ‘drug transactions’ after Alabama player’s arrest, searched his trash: report

Prosecutors say they found ‘drug transactions’ after Alabama player’s arrest, searched his trash: report


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Alabama guard Aden Holloway was arrested Monday for possession of marijuana and allegedly had 2.1 pounds in his apartment.

Prosecutors said they found evidence of “drug transactions” on his phone, according to ESPN, 

“Holloway had smaller denominations in his possession, which is indicative of narcotic sales. The marijuana was in separate packing, from plastic bags to prepackaged marijuana to vacuum sealed bags,” a complaint said, via ESPN.

The complaint added that “people [texted] that they were going to get up with him after the season.”

According to ESPN, police found $400 that was located in a jacket during a search of his home. The search, which included an inspection of Holloway’s trash, came after police received “complaints,” ESPN said, citing the search warrant. 

However, Holloway’s attorney told ESPN the search was unconstitutional, and he would fight to ensure that prosecutors cannot use what they found in the legal proceedings.

Holloway, 21, was arrested and charged with first-degree possession of marijuana and failure to affix a tax stamp. He was transported to the Tuscaloosa County Jail Monday at 9:48 a.m. and later released at 10:45 a.m. His bond was set at $5,000.

Holloway was a key piece of Alabama’s success this season, averaging 16.8 points per game as the team’s second-leading scorer. In his last game, an SEC Tournament quarterfinal loss to Ole Miss, he dropped 18 points in the 80-79 defeat.

No. 4 Alabama moved on to the second round of March Madness without one of its best players after defeating No. 13 Hofstra Friday. They will face No. 4 Texas Tech on Sunday for a trip to the Sweet 16.

But head coach Nate Oats hinted it was unlikely Holloway would return to the team for the second weekend if they get there.

The Crimson Tide entered the tournament as one of the more successful squads of late, winning nine of 11 games before the tournament.

It’s worth noting that, as of June 2024, the NCAA Division I Council removed marijuana from its banned substances list for championships and postseason football. 

Holloway is in his third season with the Crimson Tide, returning to the starting role he had during his freshman year in the 2023-24 campaign.

Holloway shot 48.1% from the field, including 43.8% from 3-point territory, while dishing out 3.8 assists and grabbing 2.8 rebounds per game.

Mainieri out as South Carolina’s baseball coach in 2nd season

Mainieri out as South Carolina’s baseball coach in 2nd season


COLUMBIA, S.C. — Paul Mainieri is out as South Carolina’s baseball coach midway through his second season after he couldn’t approach the level of success he had produced at LSU.

Mainieri, 68, who won a College World Series with LSU in 2009, had been away from the game for three years before South Carolina lured him out of retirement. The Gamecocks went 28-29 last year in Mainieri’s debut season. They’re 12-11 so far this season.

South Carolina lost 22-6 to Arkansas on Friday for its sixth consecutive defeat. The loss dropped the Gamecocks to 0-4 in Southeastern Conference play.

“[Athletic director] Jeremiah Donati and I have agreed that the baseball program will be better served with new leadership,” Mainieri said Saturday in a statement released by the university. “I take full responsibility for the win/loss record of the baseball program over the 80 games I have served as head coach.

“When [former athletic director] Ray Tanner invited me to come out of three years of retirement to coach again, my goal was to work with young people again and restore the South Carolina program to greatness with a return to Omaha. My staff and I have worked diligently in an attempt to accomplish that goal. Unfortunately, that goal has not materialized as quickly as I would have liked and will take more time than I had anticipated and that is time that I just don’t have at my age.”

Donati said he and Mainieri had a conversation Saturday and agreed this move would be in the best interest of the program. Mainieri said: “I did not get the job done at a level that I expected, or the university deserves.”

Mainieri has a 1,545-817-8 record in a 39-year head coaching career. He went 179-121-2 at St. Thomas from 1983-88, 152-158 at Air Force from 1989 to ’94, 533-213-3 at Notre Dame from 1995 to 2006 and 641-285-3 at LSU from 2007 to ’21 before posting a 40-40 record in his 1½ seasons at South Carolina.

He ranks sixth in NCAA history in career wins. He made College World Series appearances with Notre Dame in 2002 and LSU in 2008, 2009, 2013, 2015 and 2017. His 2009 LSU team won it all and his 2017 squad was the CWS runner-up.

“I appreciate everything Paul has poured into our student-athletes and our program, not just at South Carolina, but throughout his career,” Donati said in a statement. “He is a Hall of Fame coach and a world-class individual, and we wish him and his family all the best.”

‘Tears and grief’: Mother’s Day in Gaza marked by mourning

‘Tears and grief’: Mother’s Day in Gaza marked by mourning


Day of intense hardship as mothers mourn children lost in war and children face day without their mothers.

While much of the Middle East celebrated Mother’s Day with flowers and gifts this weekend, in Gaza, the occasion served as a painful reminder of precious lives lost.

Sitting in her tent in Gaza City on Saturday, Em Rami Dawwas remembered the three sons she lost in Israeli attacks, two of whose bodies are still being withheld by the authorities.

“I miss my sons on Mother’s Day. They used to bring me gifts, flowers, sweets, and ask me about my needs. They were the light of my life,” she said, sitting among boxes filled with their clothes, which she cannot bring herself to throw away.

Palestinian children have borne the brunt of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza that began in October 2023, with UNICEF estimating in October last year that 64,000 children have been killed and wounded in Israeli attacks.

Reporting from among the tents in Gaza City, Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary said Dawwas kept the photos of her sons under her pillow, looking at them every day, “as if holding on will keep their memory alive”.

Many mothers spend the day in graveyards, sitting in the only place they can feel close to their dead children, said Khoudary.

‘I just wanted to make her happy’

Maram Ahmed faced a second Mother’s Day without her mother, who she lost in an Israeli air attack that killed her entire family. Her mother was her closest friend, said Khoudary.

“On Mother’s Day, even if I didn’t have money, I would buy my mum a gift from my allowance, even if it was for less than a dollar. I just wanted to make her happy,” said the 14-year-old, sitting in her sparse tent.

“I feel so sad when I see other children with their mothers, but I don’t show it,” she said.

A report published by rights group Amnesty International this month highlighted the “brutal price” women and girls have paid during the war, which started in October 2023. Two years later, Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas agreed to a fragile “ceasefire” that the former has repeatedly violated.

“Amid Israel’s deliberate imposition of conditions of life calculated to bring about the physical destruction of Palestinians in Gaza, Palestinian women face compounded and life-threatening consequences,” said the report.

It cited ongoing mass displacement, the collapse of reproductive, maternal and neonatal healthcare, the interruption of treatment for chronic illness, heightened exposure to disease and unsafe and undignified living conditions faced by women, as well as “profound physical and mental harm”.

Since the October 2025 “ceasefire”, Israeli attacks have killed more than 650 Palestinians, many of them women and children, according to recent figures from the Ministry of Health.

Overall, Israeli attacks have killed more than 72,000 people since the start of the war.

Prosecutors: ‘Drug transactions’ on phone of Alabama’s Aden Holloway

Prosecutors: ‘Drug transactions’ on phone of Alabama’s Aden Holloway


Prosecutors allege that “drug transactions” were found on Alabama basketball star Aden Holloway‘s phone after he was arrested Monday on a felony drug charge, according to documents obtained by ESPN. But Holloway’s attorney says police violated Holloway’s constitutional rights when they searched his home.

Holloway, the second-leading scorer for the Crimson Tide, was removed from campus and separated from his team after police found 2.1 pounds of marijuana in his apartment, prompting him to miss Alabama’s 90-70 win over Hofstra in the first round of the NCAA tournament Friday.

An officer with the West Alabama Narcotics Task Force, according to the documents, found “drug transactions” on Holloway’s phone after seizing $400 that was located in a jacket. Holloway told the officer he uses marijuana for personal use and that he obtained the marijuana from out of state.

“The money is being seized due to seeing drug transactions on Holloway’s phone, with people texting that they were going to get up with him after the season,” prosecutors said in a complaint filed Friday. “Holloway had smaller denominations in his possession which is indicative of narcotic sales. The marijuana was in separate packing, from plastic bags to prepackaged marijuana to vacuum sealed bags.”

Police searched Holloway’s apartment after officers conducted a “trash pull” and found marijuana and marijuana paraphernalia attached to containers with Holloway’s name on them in a pair of trash bags they grabbed from his garbage bin, according to the search warrant. The search warrant says police pulled Holloway’s trash after there had been “complaints.” The documents obtained by ESPN do not specify what the complaints were about.

Jason Neff, Holloway’s attorney, told ESPN that police violated Holloway’s constitutional rights when they pulled his trash and used what they found as probable cause to search his apartment. Neff said he will push to ensure that prosecutors can’t use what they found in Holloway’s apartment in the legal proceedings.

“In review of the probable cause [search warrant], once this case moves forward, we would challenge the basis of the search with a motion to suppress evidence for the violation of his Fourth Amendment rights,” Neff said, referring to the amendment that protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Neff said he is hoping to arrange a meeting with school officials next week after spring break to reverse the campus ban that prevents Holloway from attending class. It could also open the door for him to play again if Alabama advances to the second weekend.

Alabama coach Nate Oats, however, didn’t sound too optimistic about that possibility when asked about Holloway prior to the team’s win over Hofstra. He did say that he continues to support Holloway after his “mistake.”

“I’ve got three daughters; they’ve made mistakes,” Oats said. “You don’t disappear on them when they need your help. I won’t be disappearing on him. I talked to him yesterday morning on the phone and the night before that. I’ve talked to him every day. I’m going to continue to talk to him, love him, help him through this, and we’ll see where it all takes him.”

Holloway posted $5,000 bail and was released from the Tuscaloosa County jail shortly after his arrest.

He has been charged with a Class C felony drug possession charge, “not for personal use,” and a failure to affix a tax stamp charge. They are both felonies, and both carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in jail and a $15,000 fine.

From old ID cards to Coldplay earmuffs: Gwyneth Paltrow’s archive is up for auction

From old ID cards to Coldplay earmuffs: Gwyneth Paltrow’s archive is up for auction


An old copy of Cosmopolitan, an expired ID card and a “mom” necklace are among the 300 personal items that Gwyneth Paltrow has put up for auction.

The sale will take place next week at Julien’s, the Los Angeles auction house that typically sells rare items for six-figure sums — like Marilyn Monroe’s infamous naked dress. This auction is more modest by comparison, however, with prices starting at around $50.

Titled “Bold Luxury: Gwyneth Paltrow Lexicon of Style,” the sale includes a personalized nine-karat yellow gold “Gwyneth” bracelet, which has attracted six bids and currently stands at $150, a Saint Laurent vintage cigarette lighter and a signed copy of her own birth announcement from 1972, which has five bids at $140.

The auction ranges from strange pieces of memorabilia to luxury fashion items that give a glimpse into Paltrow’s A-list lifestyle filled with Oscar campaigns and award ceremony appearances.

Paltrow is parting ways with a set of photographs of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, her ex-husband whom she was married to between 2003 and 2014, and a pair of red and black ear defenders with “Coldplay” printed on the side.

Ralph Lauren’s sketches of the iconic bubblegum pink dress Paltrow wore to the 1999 Oscars, where she won Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love, are included in the auction.

The pink ombre Atelier Versace gown worn by Paltrow to the Country Music Awards in 2010 is currently under bid for $3,000, while the 1999 Versace two-piece that Paltrow wore on a visit to the White House is expected to fetch up to $2,000.

Another red carpet gown is the one-shoulder light blush pink evening gown by Ralph & Russo, estimated to make $4,000 at auction, which was worn by Paltrow when she attended the Oscars 2015.

More luxury items include a brown Hermes Birkin bag from 2005, which currently has nine bids totalling $15,000, a monogrammed Louis Vuitton trunk for $9,000 and a 2006 John Galianno teal gown that has attracted bids of up to $2,500 at the time of writing.

Other pieces include a range of furniture from her own home, several portraits of Paltrow captured by photographer Mario Testino and a signed ID card from when Paltrow volunteered at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

Paltrow told Vogue that the wardrobe clearout was prompted by a fire at a storage facility and a recent house move.

“I was sitting with one of my great old friends, Rashida Jones, and I said to her, ‘I have all this great stuff that doesn’t go anywhere. I wish I could just have a huge garage sale,’” Paltrow said. Jones suggested contacting Julien’s. “I was like, Is that totally random?” Paltrow said.

Martin Nolan, a co-founder of Julien’s, told The Guardian that the auction shows “even a celebrity like Gwyneth Paltrow has their stuff … It was very important to her that this not appear an elitist type of auction.”

“Her mantra going forward is: ‘If I get something new, I’m letting something go,’” Nolan added.

Paltrow’s belongings will be auctioned at the Peninsula Beverly Hills and online on March 24 and 25, 2026.

The proceeds of the auction will go to World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit organization founded by Chef José Andrés, which provides fresh meals to people impacted by natural disasters and humanitarian crises.

Inter Miami must shift focus to MLS after Champions Cup exit – Javier Mascherano

Inter Miami must shift focus to MLS after Champions Cup exit – Javier Mascherano


Inter Miami head coach Javier Mascherano insists the team must shift focus to the Major League Soccer regular season in order to move on from the disappointment of being eliminated from the Concacaf Champions Cup.

The Herons drew 0-0 against Nashville SC in the first leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16, before concluding the series with a 1-1 tie at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Concacaf tournament implements the use of away goals as the first tiebreaker of a level aggregate score, therefore eliminating Inter Miami from the competition.

“Well, what happened is in the past; we can’t change it now, and there is no point in dwelling on it. Clearly, we are still in the process of coming to terms with, and processing, the disappointment caused by our elimination,” Mascherano said on Saturday.

“That’s football; sometimes these things happen. However, I believe it is up to us to prove that what occurred the other day was merely an accident. The best way to demonstrate that is to now shift our focus entirely to the league.”

Despite the early elimination from the Concacaf Champions Cup, Mascherano emphasized the team has not seen a particularly bad start to the season with a 2W-3D-1L record.

“The only way to move forward is to maintain that belief in our process, keep working hard, strive to improve in every aspect and take full responsibility for our actions; I, first and foremost,” Mascherano said.

“There isn’t much else to add…What we can change now is the dynamic moving forward. It’s a bit strange, really: we are talking about the start of a season where we’ve lost just one match, drawn three, and won two. It’s not a bad start, certainly not a disaster, but, well, at a club with expectations as high as this one’s, everything tends to look a lot worse than it actually is.”

Barry Keoghan says negative comments have made him ‘shy away’ from acting

Barry Keoghan says negative comments have made him ‘shy away’ from acting


Barry Keoghan has confessed that he’s taken a step back from acting because of the immense “online hate” he’s received.

The 33-year-old actor spoke about the drawbacks of being in the public eye during Friday’s episode of SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up radio show, highlighting how negative comments about his appearance have made him withdraw from all aspects of public life.

“There’s a lot of abuse of how I look, and it’s kind of past the point of ‘everyone goes through that’ and everyone does, but it’s made me shy away,” he admitted. “It’s made me go inside myself and not want to attend places. Not want to go outside.”

“I think I remove myself from online, but I’m still a curious human being that wants to go on,” he explained. “If I attend an event or if I go somewhere, you want to see how it was received. It’s not nice, you know, there’s a lot of hate online.”

He continued: “I don’t have to hide away because I am hiding away. I don’t have to go to places because I actually don’t go to places because of these things.”

“But when that starts leaking into your art, it becomes a problem because then you don’t even want to be on screen anymore.”

The Saltburn star added that the way online bullying has affected him is “becoming a problem.”

Keoghan also shared his concerns about how the negative comments made about him online will one day impact his three-year-old child, Brando, whom he shares with ex Alyson Sandro.

“It’s disappointing to the fans, but it’s also disappointing that my little boy has to read all of this stuff when he gets older,” he added.

The Banshees of Inisherin star has previously hit back at the hate he’s received online. In December 2024, he urged people in a post on X to “be respectful,” following the criticism he received about his split from singer Sabrina Carpenter.

“I can only sit and take so much. My name has been dragged across the internet in ways I usually don’t respond too,” he wrote at the time. “I have to respond now because it’s getting to a place where there are too many lines being crossed.”

“I deactivated my account because I can no longer let this stuff distract from my family and my work,” he continued. “The messages I have received, no person should ever have to read them. Absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary about my appearance, character, how I am as a parent and every other inhumane thing you can imagine.”

After calling out critics who dragged his character, he criticized them for breaking boundaries, such as by knocking on his grandmother’s door and sitting outside the home where his son lives.

“That’s crossing a line,” he said.

“Each and every day I work hard to push myself on every level to be the healthiest and strongest person for that boy. I want to provide opportunities for him to learn, fail and grow. I want him to be able to look up to his daddy, to have full trust in me and know I will have his back no matter what. I need you to remember he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older.”
