Keys to Villanova Advancing to the National Championship



Tonight is the big night! Villanova faces Kansas tonight in a final four showdown at 8:49 PM ET, with a chance to punch their ticket to the national championship game.

In order for Villanova to win, they need to keep this a battle of the guards game. Especially when you have a guard like Jalen Brunson, AP men's college basketball player of the year.

Eric Paschall and Omari Spellman must draw out Kansas big man Udoka Azubuike, to clear the lane for Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges. Villanova as a whole needs to get Azubuike in foul trouble early before he gets their big men in foul trouble.

Phil Booth and Donte DiVincenzo will be the other key pieces Villanova needs to win. These two will need to add a spark to Villanova offense to take some pressure off of Bridges and Brunson.

If Villanova is able to complete this plan tonight, they will win by a huge margin!

Dallas Cowboys Add Deep Threat to Wide Receiver Core



Yesterday, Allen Hurns signed a two-year deal worth $12 million with the Dallas Cowboys.

This deal works well for both parties, Allen Hurns get a change a scenery and fresh start he desperately needs, and the Dallas Cowboys acquire the deep threat their offense desperately needs.

With the latest decline of Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant, everyone knew the Cowboys would be looking to bolster a weak wide receiver core. Allen Hurns could be the guy to help strengthen this wide receiver core.

This past year Allen Hurns had 39 receptions, 487 receiving yards, and two touchdowns. However, if he can play like he did in 2015 where he had 64 receptions, 1,031 receiving yards, and ten touchdowns the Cowboys offense could be in for a present surprise.

But, first Dak Prescott and Allen Hurns will need to gain chemistry and trust in order for this to work. Only time will tell if this will work.

Robert Quinn Adds Substance to the Dolphins Defensive Line





Robert Quinn, a two time Pro Bowler, First Team All-Pro back in 2013, was traded yesterday to the Miami Dolphins. Quinn and a 6th round swap pick were traded to the Miami Dolphins for a 4th round and 6th round swap pick.

From 2012-2014, Robert Quinn was one of the most feared defensive ends in the league. In 2013, Quinn racked up 19 sacks in a season. Some defensive ends don't even get that many sacks in three seasons combined let alone in one season.

But these past few years, Robert Quinn has dealt with hip injuries, back injuries, and a concussion injury that has had him sitting on the sideline, more than playing on the field.

Quinn still has two years and roughly $24 million left on his contract. This could be a big reason why the Rams traded him, especially after adding lockdown cornerback Marcus Peters.

The Rams have two key players that they need to resign this summer, Sammy Watkins and Lamarcus Joyner, so getting rid of Quinn’s $24 million appears to be a smart business decision, but only time will tell if they would be able to replace the defensive end who was able to compile 8.5 sacks and 21 tackles.

Miami on the other hand, will have a three headed monster defensive line with Cameron Wake, Robert Quinn, and Ndamukong Suh if everyone can stay healthy. If you combine their stats for this past season they would equate to 23.5 sacks and 105 tackles.

If they all stay healthy this upcoming season, this defensive line could be one of the best defensive lines in the NFL. Only time will tell if that happens, we just have to wait and see.
