Deadspin | Dusty May informs Michigan officials of intention to stay put, spurn UNC Apr 5, 2026; Indianapolis, IN, USA; Michigan Wolverines head coach Dusty May during a press conference ahead of the Final Four of the men’s 2026 NCAA Tournament at Lucas Oil Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Bob Donnan-Imagn Images Michigan head coach Dusty May informed Michigan officials that he would not take part as a candidate in North Carolina’s coaching search — nor any other — ESPN reported on Sunday. May, 49, has guided the Wolverines to the NCAA Championship Game in his second season in Ann Arbor. A year after he took them to the Sweet 16, May has the Wolverines sitting at 36-3 ahead of Monday’s championship matchup with UConn. The Tarheels have been in pursuit of a new coach since firing Hubert Davis on March 24. The school is now facing a looming deadline of sorts with the transfer portal opening on Tuesday, yet it has also been doing due diligence with coaches still in the tournament. Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd had been squarely in North Carolina’s sights until Friday, when Lloyd was given a significant contract extension to remain with the Wildcats. That provoked speculation that the Tarheels could turn their attention to another Final Four coach. As Lloyd’s new deal became public, May — whose buyout is million — also addressed job rumors on Friday, reiterating his commitment to Michigan. “After last year, I decided that I’ll never, ever respond to any job speculation,” May said. “I think it’s well-documented how happy I am at Michigan. Obviously, my private life, my personal life, my family, their happiness is very important.” Interestingly, Lloyd and May squared off on Saturday, with May’s Wolverines winning a one-sided affair, 91-73. North Carolina finished 24-9 with a first-round exit in this year’s NCAA Tournament. Iowa State’s T.J. Otzelberger and Alabama’s Nate Oats have also publicly taken themselves out of the running in recent days. Other reported candidates include the Chicago Bulls’ Billy Donovan and Vanderbilt’s Mark Byington, among others. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Dusty #informs #Michigan #officials #intention #stay #put #spurn #UNC

Even 45 dot balls couldn’t mask the lapses as many of Gujarat Titans’ bowlers “were just a little bit off their rhythm and lines in particular,” admitted batting coach Matthew Hayden after a six-run defeat to Rajasthan Royals in a boundary-laden IPL contest here on Saturday.

The Titans conceded 13 wides, which proved costly in a narrow defeat. “(Mohammed) Siraj had an off day. Simple as that. When we reviewed his pitch map, it was a little bit too short and a little bit too wide,” he said.

Hayden felt “the game was absolutely in the bag,” pointing to key decisions against an on-song Ravi Bishnoi (four for 41) and a costly run out of Shahrukh Khan. The 54-year-old called for a “little bit of cohesion” in the “entire batting line-up,” adding that there was a need for “that little attention to detail around winning a game amongst a partnership that does start.”

Hayden said Kagiso Rabada (23 n.o.) “was magnificent with the bat,” adding that he “showed, as a frontline bowler, that commitment to batting counts, especially in run chases.”

Player-of-the-Match Bishnoi revealed his most effective tactic of the night. “There was a big boundary on one side, and there were many left-handers in the opposition. So, I was trying to bowl googlies from middle and leg (stumps). The attempt was to make the left-handers hit the balls going away towards the longer end. Sai (Sudharsan) and Washi (Washington Sundar) both got out. So, that tactic I discussed with the captain (Riyan Parag) and Dhruv (Jurel) behind (the stumps) worked,” he said.

Deadspin | Gabriel Arias, CJ Kayfus help Guardians split twin bill with Cubs Apr 5, 2026; Cleveland, Ohio, USA; The Cleveland Guardians celebrate a win over the Chicago Cubs at Progressive Field. Mandatory Credit: David Richard-Imagn Images Gabriel Arias’ RBI single highlighted a three-run eighth inning for the Cleveland Guardians, who rallied to beat the visiting Chicago Cubs 6-5 in the nightcap of a Sunday doubleheader. The Guardians overcame deficits of 3-0 and 4-3 to wrangle a split with the Cubs, who won the opener 1-0. CJ Kayfus went 2-for-2 with a pinch-hit RBI single in the sixth to make it 3-1. With one out in the eighth, he rallied from an 0-2 hole to smack his first home run of the season to right field off Jacob Webb (0-1) and tie the contest 4-4. Chase DeLauter followed with a single, and Rhys Hoskins walked to bring up Arias, who lined a shot into left field to score DeLauter. Cleveland reliever Cade Smith gave up a run on two walks and a hit in the ninth. Ian Happ’s single cut the lead to one, but Smith got Carson Kelly looking to earn his third save of the season and give the Guardians their second win in the three-game series. Chicago used the long ball to get up early. Matt Shaw led off the Cubs third with his first of the season. That was the only run Cleveland starter Parker Messick gave up over five innings. He allowed two hits and three walks while striking out six. Dansby Swanson hit his first homer of the season, a two-run shot off Matt Festa, in the sixth inning. After the Guardians tied it with a three-run sixth, Happ’s lead-off homer in the eighth off Shawn Armstrong (1-0) put the Cubs back ahead. Cleveland chased Cubs starter Shota Imanaga after Steven Kwan started the sixth with a double. Ben Brown relieved Imanaga but gave up a walk to Angel Martinez. One out later, Kayfus singled and DeLauter hit a sacrifice fly to make it 3-2. After Hoskins walked, Arias singled up the middle to score Kayfus and tie the game. Arias went 2-for-4 with two RBIs. Imanaga allowed just one run in five-plus innings, giving up three hits and a walk while striking out four. Webb was charged with all three eighth-inning runs, giving up three hits and a walk in a third of an inning. Despite allowing the go-ahead homer, Armstrong got the win, striking out two in 1 1/3 innings. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Gabriel #Arias #Kayfus #Guardians #split #twin #bill #CubsApr 5, 2026; Cleveland, Ohio, USA; The Cleveland Guardians celebrate a win over the Chicago Cubs at Progressive Field.
