Two days before an eruption on Mount Kilauea, former CU staffer Trevor Reilly and I stood on the vast crater floor reliving his ostentatious rogue expedition in search of more money for Deion Sanders' roster. On a very complex (and perhaps prescient) tale. nytimes.com/athletic/58321…

"Superman, dude. He's Superman." He has a sandwich named for him, trading cards and fans stalking him in Hawaii. A Marine gave him a medal. This is the Ashton Jeanty phenomenon at Boise State, where Cinderella wears a steel-toe boot. The Athletic story: nytimes.com/athletic/58641…

Travis Hunter was a high school sensation in Georgia. He aced annual fitness tests, made otherworldly plays on the field and was unlike anything opposing coaches in the talent-rich state have ever seen. "You haven't seen a baller until you've seen me." nytimes.com/athletic/58833…
