Chris Bergeron enters his third year at the helm of the Miami RedHawks still looking for his first winning season.

The Victory Bell is the oldest current non-conference rivalry in the country, having first been played in 1888, and is scheduled to run through 2029. If Cincinnati keeps up its current win streak until then, it might be time to retire this game as a yearly event.

Miami wide receivers coach Israel Woolfork played college football from 2008 to 2012 at Division II Grand Valley State in Michigan, where Chuck Martin was the head coach before moving on to Notre Dame as an assistant. Before YouTube was around, he remembers mailing out DVDs and VHS tapes of his highlights when he was in high school. “Now, to see where it is, where a kid can literally inbox me with his link to his highlights, his transcripts, and everything being on the phone and accessible in a matter of 30 seconds? It’s wild.”
RedHawks men’s basketball head coach Jack Owens’ contract has been extended through the 2023-2024 season as announced by the program Thursday. A copy of Owens’ extension obtained by The Miami Student shows the contract was signed on May 4, 2021 and expires on May 31, 2024.

Sam Bachman, former Miami star pitcher and the ninth overall selection in the 2021 MLB draft signed with the Los Angeles Angels for $3,847,500 Wednesday, according to reports from Baseball America’s Carlos Collazo.
Sam Bachman became the first Miami University RedHawk ever selected in the first round of the MLB first-year player draft when the Los Angeles Angels drafted him ninth overall Sunday night.

On Sunday night, pitcher Sam Bachman will likely be the first ever Miami RedHawk to be taken in the first round of the Major League Baseball Draft. One of Bachman’s most exciting traits is his apparent MLB readiness. Draft insider Joe Doyle speculated that he could end up in an MLB bullpen later in 2021, saying “If there’s stuff that’ll play immediately out of a big league bullpen, it’s Bachman’s.” Major League teams always need bullpen help. Who better to provide it than a young player with strikeout stuff?
