Miami (Ohio) dealt 1st loss of season by UMass in MAC tourney

Mar 12, 2026, 01:22 PM ET

CLEVELAND — No. 20 Miami (Ohio) suffered its first defeat with a shocking 87-83 loss to UMass in its first game of the Mid-American Conference tournament Thursday, spoiling the last perfect record in Division I men’s basketball.

Daniel Hankins-Sanford made a tiebreaking layup with 29 seconds remaining, and the Minutemen escaped with a victory in a quarterfinal game that had 12 lead changes and 10 ties.

The RedHawks (31-1) were the fifth men’s Division I program this century to go undefeated during the regular season. Now, it’s the second to get tripped up in its conference tournament. St. Joseph’s lost to Xavier in the 2004 Atlantic 10 quarterfinals but was still a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

Miami was the first squad since Gonzaga in 2020-21 to not have a loss going into a conference tournament.

“Our guys have earned the right, in my opinion, to play in the NCAA tournament,” Miami coach Travis Steele told reporters.

The RedHawks had eight one-possession games during the regular season, including their last three coming into the MAC tournament.

There were some doubts about the RedHawks earning an at-large berth. Those quieted after a win over Ohio last Friday but might perk up again after this.

After Hankins-Sanford’s layup, Miami’s Luke Skaljac made a bad pass and turned the ball over to Marcus Banks, who made two free throws to make it a two-possession game.

Brant Byers was fouled on a 3-point attempt but made only two of three free throws. Banks iced the game with another pair of free throws with eight seconds left.

Leonardo Bettiol led UMass (17-15) with 25 points while Banks added 18 and Jayden Ndjigue 16.

Byers led Miami with 17 points, and Eian Elmer added 16.

Miami had a 69-58 lead with 8:11 remaining before UMass rallied back with a 13-2 run. Ndjigue had six points, including a 3-pointer to tie it at 71.

UNSANE Announce North American Tour Celebrating Occupational Hazard

New York City noise rock veterans Unsane are shining a spotlight on one of the most pivotal records in their catalog. Their fourth studio album, Occupational Hazard, has returned in a newly remastered edition, reviving a defining era in the band’s evolution where punishing noise rock collided with elements of punk, metal, and industrial music.

Originally released in January 1998 through Relapse Records, the album’s refreshed edition arrived on February 4, 2026 via the band’s own imprint, Lamb Unlimited. The reissue revisits a moment when Unsane sharpened their sound into an uncompromising blend of distorted guitars, relentless basslines, and pummeling rhythms.

The road to the album began with a six-song demo session at AmRep Studios in Minneapolis, before the band relocated to Excello Studios in Brooklyn, New York, where they recorded the full album with renowned engineer Billy Anderson.

Frontman Chris Spencer remembers the creative energy surrounding the sessions: “The writing process for Occupational Hazard was great. I think the one real defining factor to this very creatively rewarding period of time in our career was that we knew what we were doing in terms of songwriting, and we were able to take our time while constantly playing.”

Once recording wrapped, the album was mixed by legendary producer and Barkmarket guitarist David Sardy. Spencer says Sardy‘s production style and access to a high-end studio helped shape the album’s final form.

“I’ve always liked what he did with his own band and in the studio, and I thought that it would work well for what we were doing,” Spencer said. “Dave also had access to a really good studio in Midtown Manhattan, so we decided to take advantage of his great production work and that space.”

Now, nearly three decades later, Unsane are celebrating the album’s legacy on stage. The band has already begun rolling out European and UK dates centered around Occupational Hazard, with a North American run planned for later this fall, giving longtime fans the chance to experience the album’s crushing noise rock intensity in a live setting once again.

Big Ten basketball tournament 2026: Updated bracket, scores and schedule

The 2026 Big Ten Tournament moves along on Thursday, as third-round action begins with No. 9 seed Iowa tangling with No. 8 Ohio State, followed by No. 5 Wisconsin and No. 12 Washington. The day concludes with No. 7 Purdue facing No. 15 seed Northwestern and No. 6 UCLA doing battle with No. 14 Rutgers.

Indiana became the story of Wednesday’s second-round action at the Big Ten Tournament for all the wrong reasons. The 10th-seeded Hoosiers got blasted 74-61 by No. 15 seed Northwestern. It’s Indiana’s seventh-straight loss to the Wildcats, and a 1-6 collapse all but seals Indiana’s fate on the outside looking in on Selection Sunday.

Indiana seemed to know it with head coach Darian DeVries shifting into offseason mode in the postgame press conference, and the emotions were apparent for seniors like Lamar Wilkerson, Tayton Conerway and Tucker DeVries, who seemed to understand the gravity of the moment.

But nothing should be taken away from Northwestern. The Wildcats have shown real moxie getting up off the mat after a 1-8 start in Big Ten play that featured a ton of razor-tight losses. After beating Penn State and Indiana, Northwestern will look to make it three in a row against the angry No. 7 seed Purdue.

Iowa, Washington and Rutgers joined Northwestern as Wednesday winners. The Hawkeyes emerged from a first-half slumber to dispatch Maryland 75-64. Bennett Stirtz and Ben McCollum are now 14-3 in “win or go home” games in their four-year tenure. They will look to make it 15-3 against Ohio State on Thursday. Washington used a torrid rally to outlast USC 83-79 in overtime. A date with a dangerous Wisconsin club awaits, and Rutgers kept its season alive with a hard-fought 72-67 upset win over No. 11 seed Minnesota. Steve Pikiell and the fellas will get a date with Mick Cronin and the UCLA Bruins in Thursday’s third-round nightcap.

New permanent exhibition shows plaster casts of Pompeii victims frozen at the moment of their death

New permanent exhibition shows plaster casts of Pompeii victims frozen at the moment of their death

Pompeii, Italy — More than 20 plaster casts of victims who died in the catastrophic volcano eruption in Pompeii went on display for the first time Thursday in a permanent exhibition.

The casts, which scholars call “imprints of pain,” dramatically capture the exact position each resident of the city died in 79 AD. The reproductions were created by pouring liquid plaster into the voids left by the decomposed bodies in the hardened ash.

Curators wanted to “give dignity to these people who are like us — women, children, men — who died during the eruption, but at the same time make it understandable, inclusive, and somehow joyful to understand what really happened in Pompeii,” said Gabriel Zuchtriegel, director of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii.

Invented by Giuseppe Fiorelli in 1863, the recreation technique faithfully preserves the position, expression of pain and clothing details of the victims, making them unique testimonies. It is still used by the team of scholars conducting research at the archaeological park of Pompeii.

Pompeii is the only site in the world that allows the recovery of this type of evidence, enabling visitors to see the reproduction of objects that were destroyed and the people who lived and died at that moment.

The eruption of Mount Vesuvius killed an estimated 2,000 residents within the city, with total regional casualties reaching up to 16,000. The city of Pompeii was covered by ash, then later solidified by pyroclastic flows.

During the excavations in Pompeii, the remains of over a thousand victims of the eruption were found trapped in their homes or shelters, buried by a rain of pumice stones and volcanic rock, or killed by the collapse of roofs and walls under the weight of the volcanic debris, which reached a height of about three meters (about 10 feet.)

The 22 casts were chosen among the best preserved remains. The victims were found across the city, from the inner areas to the gates and roads leading out of the town, where the inhabitants fled in search of safety.

“They have a strong emotional impact on visitors and can be very moving,” said Silvia Martina Bertesago, archaeologist at the Pompeii Archaeological Park.

“Through the analyses we can carry out today with increasingly advanced techniques, we can also understand their age and sex, but also whether they had particular diseases or particular types of diet,” she said.

The exhibition is housed in the porticoes of the Palestra Grande, located opposite the Amphitheatre. As well as an area dedicated to human remains, it also includes displays findings such as plants and food that remained buried for centuries under meters of ash and lava.

Jelly Roll’s Childhood Home Might Not Be What You’re Expecting

Jelly Roll’s Childhood Home Might Not Be What You’re Expecting

Jelly Roll’s childhood home was no shack. The “Liar” singer famously grew up in Antioch, Tenn. but until now few fans could see what his home looked like.

The Nashville Musical History Tour Facebook page uncovered the house, providing key context and comparisons to help understand Jelly Roll’s raising. This became a topic of conversation prior to his Grand Ole Opry induction when he told media that he did a little tour of his neighborhood before making his way to the Opry House.

Jelly Roll’s Childhood Home

Jelly Roll’s family paid $81,000 for the house in 1987 and sold the home he grew up in in 2003 for $100,000 (per Redfin). It hasn’t transferred owners since. Per Zillow, it’s worth $358,000 or about $179 a square foot.

The house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms and is just over 2,000 square feet. A picture shows that it’s a split-level with a well-kept facade.

At one point, Jelly Roll tried to buy his house but his offer was turned down.

The singer’s opinion of the house has shifted over the years as he went from struggling addict to artist and now country superstar. He’s both called the house a shack and admitted the neighborhood was “decently middle class.”

“But I didn’t know one person on my street with a career. Everybody did drugs,” he told the New York Times (per NMHT).

Where Does Jelly Roll Live Today?

Jelly Roll’s current residence is in the greater Nashville area but he’s never shared much more than that. In 2024 he bought a 500-acre farm and has released video of buildings being constructed on the land. He may or may not still own an additional Nashville residence, acquired in late 2023.

Architectural Digest notes that he and wife Bunnie Xo also owned a home near Las Vegas for several years. They bought the 4,000 square foot home in 2022 and sold it two years later for $1.075 million.

Also living with Jelly and Bunnie is his almost 18-year-old daughter Bailee Ann.

Jelly Roll’s Stunning Weight Loss Journey in 29 Pictures

Jelly Roll once weighed over 500 pounds, but as of January 2026, he’s close to 250. His weight loss journey wasn’t linear, however. These 29 pictures show how he put weight on and dropped in at various stages of his life, dating back to 2011.
