You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get after it.
In college hockey, Arizona State is making a serious move, entering talks with Colorado Avalanche assistant coach Dave Hakstol to take over their men's program. Hakstol brings NHL pedigree and head coaching experience, and if this gets done, it signals ASU is dead serious about building something real on the ice.
Meanwhile in the NFL, Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur is pushing back on calls for change after a one and four start, saying he has no plans to shake up his coaching staff or adjust play-calling duties. That's a bold stance with the season already slipping away, and Cardinals fans are going to want to see results fast before patience runs completely dry.
And in college football, Mississippi State could be heading into Baton Rouge without their most dynamic weapon. Quarterback Kamario Taylor, who has been absolutely electric for the Bulldogs this season, is dealing with a foot injury that puts his status for the LSU game in serious doubt. That is a massive blow for Mississippi State, who will need every advantage they can get in a hostile Death Valley environment.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
