Miles, who has been linked to jobs at Baylor and Purdue, may bring on a well-known assistant if he takes over at Purdue — a move that would be costly to the Crimson Tide. MORE: Best bets to replace Les Miles at LSU A source close to the situation told 247Sports that if Miles goes to Purdue, he would want Alabama offensive analyst Steve Sarkisian as his offensive coordinator. That makes sense, considering one of the main criticisms of Miles at LSU was his inability to adapt his offense to the talents of his players....

In 1995, the WNBA did not exist, so I settled for dreaming of playing professional basketball in the men’s league. In sixth grade, that dream changed. I listened as Ruth Riley drained two free throws to seal the college National Championship. A new dream was born—winning a championship while playing basketball for the University of Notre Dame. I practiced every day but, as a 5'10" center, my prospects of playing at Notre Dame were slim....

Murder is hardly new to Russia. The novelty is Dulepov’s audience: eight women and five men who are making history in one of modern Russia’s first trials by jury. Since 1917, when the communist regime banned juries, justice has been meted out by state tribunals in proceedings closed to the public. Technically, Russians have had the right to a trial by jury in Moscow and a few other experimental zones since 1993....

Launched on Thursday, the Let the Music Play campaign is attempting to save live music businesses including venues, artists, productions companies, concerts and festivals and more areas of the cultural sector by calling on the government for help. The U.K. has issued stimulus checks to residents and bailout funds for various businesses including British sporting outlets and pubs after coronavirus lockdowns left more than two million people without work....

On Reshtan Road, where the Berisha family suffered particularly severely, losing 49 members across three generations, the remaining Berishas have returned and rebuilt most of their burned-out homes. The last time I had been on Reshtan Road, in June of 1999, there were still Serbs prowling the neighborhood and NATO troops had not yet secured it. The evidence of the atrocity was still fresh, coinciding with witness accounts I’d already heard: the charred remains of the men, executed and then burned; the splattered blood and spent shell casings....

James Baker and Lee Hamilton of the Iraq Study Group came up with a revelatory conclusion about the war in Iraq: it will never be won. Your Dec. 11 cover asks the question “Will Bush Listen?” That’s doubtful. President George W. Bush continued with the war in Iraq after no WMD were found and after Saddam Hussein was captured. How many more young men and women will be killed, maimed and crippled?...

Chronic leukemia is much more common in older adults, and though acute leukemia is often thought of as being a childhood cancer, acute myeloid leukemia is actually much more common in adults. For unknown reasons, men are more likely than women to develop the four major types of leukemia. Confirmed and Probable Risk Factors There are several risk factors for the development of leukemia that have been documented in a number of studies....

The letter addressed to McConnell was published to Bondy’s Twitter account Friday. Over three pages, it provides a detailed preview of the proposed testimony, along with a plea to allow witnesses at the trial. “As the Senate’s vote on whether to call witnesses and receive evidence draws near, we feel compelled to provide a brief summary of what Mr. Parnas’s testimony would be,” wrote Bondy in the letter. “For the past several months we have diligently pursued an opportunity for Mr....

Before LeVar Burton Reads starts on April 3 at 9pm, the Star Trek actor released the upcoming schedule online. For the premiere, Burton will first read one of the literary works from the Stardust author. During the upcoming weeks, there will be different material for various demographics. Monday’s readings are aimed for children. Wednesdays are geared for Young Adult readers, and Fridays are specifically for adults. Because it’s April Fools’ Day, the Roots actor initially confused the dates....

The conclusion that marine biodiversity has stayed stable over time and not mushroomed over the last 200 million years or so challenges existing assumptions that there has been a steady diversification of species, say the study’s authors. “Our paper rejects past hypotheses that marine diversity today is higher than ever before, due to sustained increases over the last 200 million years. Rather, we find that levels of diversity today are likely not that different from levels hundreds of millions of years ago,” lead author Dr....

Sterling was banned for life from the NBA and eventually forced to sell his team, prompting others to consider whether they might have said offensive things in the past and whether those words could come back to haunt them. Sterling was an easy target, with a long history of racist behavior and sentiments. But the principles and justifications that were used by Silver to oust Sterling were not based on that past behavior — the legal cases involved had either been dismissed or settled out of court....

The Poland international pulled up holding his hamstring in the first half of his side’s 2-0 Bundesliga win over RB Leipzig on Saturday and was taken off for Arturo Vidal. Bayern 15/2 to win CL Bayern described it as a “minor muscular problem” and the striker insisted he did not think it to be a serious concern. However, he was not part of the travelling squad for the trip to Glasgow, which left for the airport in Munich early on Monday....

Verstappen, current F1 driver’s championship leader, landed in the hospital as a precautionary measure after a devastating wreck on Lap 1 of Sunday’s 2021 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, much to the chagrin of Red Bull and F1 fans everywhere. MORE: F1 schedule 2021: Date, start time, TV channel for every race The crash happened after Hamilton hit Verstappen in the right rear tire, causing the Red Bull driver to careen off the track and into the wall at one of the fastest corners on the track and in the championship....

That’s the message that 30 progressive activist organizations want to convey to the Senate as part of an open letter they sent Friday to top Republicans, including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), that demands they “immediately” return from their more than two-week vacation to allocate money for election security and safety measures amid coronavirus ahead of the November contest. But the call to action is one that is likely to fall upon deaf ears....

The new Liberty coach had surgery Friday in Virginia after the infection entered his blood stream. Freeze said if he had waited to go to the hospital, he could have died, but Liberty president Jerry Falwell Jr. made the arrangements to make sure he got the best care. “The doctors told me if it had been another 24 hours, that strand of bacteria could have gotten to my heart and that I would have been fighting for my life,” Freeze told ESPN....

That Double-Take Cover Photo illustrator Steve Walkowiak first created the composite image of George W. Bush and Al Gore featured on last week’s cover at the suggestion of Director of Photography Sarah Harbutt. “I wanted an icon that represented both men,” she says. “When I saw the final product, I knew that it would make a great cover.” Cover Director Bruce Ramsay had to agree. “It was instantly clear,” he says....

In Europe, there’s much rejoicing. In the Americas, it’s far less clear cut. Perhaps the return of Liga MX can salve the pain of Mexico finishing out with a frustrating defeat against Honduras, or maybe you couldn’t wait for the break to end to see Club America, Monterrey, Tigres or Chivas in action again. Well, maybe not the last one. Just kidding, Chivas fans! We’ll get to you in a few moments....
