Meet Carol Callan, the backstage architect of the U.S. women’s basketball dynasty
LILLE, France — For the last seven Summer Olympics, Carol Callan has woken up on the morning of the opening ceremonies with a checklist and a hypothetical fire extinguisher. The checklist contained everything that could conceivably go awry: missing shoelaces, practice schedules in need of tweaks, backup transit solutions, alternate uniforms being packed in the off-chance that Team USA’s opponents showed up in the wrong gear. Every metaphorical pothole that could exist between that moment and a gold medal was already foreseen (and pre-fixed) by Callan, who from 1996 through the Tokyo Games in 2021 was the director of the women’s program for USA Basketball. -

How Cody Schrader went from Missouri walk-on to SEC's best running back
When he wasn't running roughshod through Division II defenses at Truman State, Cody Schrader had no interest in watching other games on television in his spare time.It didn't matter who was playing, be it teams from the Big Ten, Big 12, SEC or anybody else on college football's biggest stages."I didn't pay attention to any of the big-time Division I football games just because I always saw myself being able to play at that level and play in the biggest games even if nobody else did," Schrader told ESPN. "I was mad about it. I wouldn't watch, couldn't watch."Now fans across the country are watching Schrader on those big stages, and defenses on those "big-time Division I football" teams are struggling to stop the 5-foot-9, 214-pound dynamo. In his second season at Missouri after transferring from Truman State as a walk-on, Schrader leads all FBS players with an average of 129.4 rushing yards per game. -

No scholarship offers out of high school, domination at Division II Truman State, walking on to Missouri in 2022, fighting his way up the depth chart, exploding in 2023.
