But when the school appointed the New York Times Magazine journalist—best known for her work on “The 1619 Project”—the prestigious Knight Chair in Race and Investigative Journalism, she was not offered tenure, even though previous Knight Chairs had been. Now, it has been alleged that the journalism school’s largest donor—whose name the school bears—had objected to Hannah-Jones even being hired.

One that was posed was, “Who is the most overrated coach in the country?” MORE: Roy Williams, then and now Williams won rather convincingly.

Uncharted 4 will likely still be shown in some form at E3 of course, but it’s delay is good news for Sony’s competitors, as the 2016 release date will help put the focus on other major titles like Halo 5 that are coming out this year. The news has understandably disappointed some of the franchise’s fans, but Naughty Dog has tried its best to keep the hype going, discussing everything from the game’s multiplayer to its cutting edge graphics in recent weeks....
This is according to PlayStation president Shuhei Yoshida, who claims that the early copies of Uncharted 4 were stolen while in transit. Since the matter is an ongoing police investigation, no further details were revealed. So at this time, it’s hard to say how the stolen Uncharted 4 copies landed in the hands of UK retailers. As a game that literally has the word “thief” in it and even a Plunder mode, some might find it a little amusing that Uncharted 4, of all games, has been the subject of a heist....

However, as good as those aforementioned games are, they tend to overshadow others. Over the years, many space westerns have been released and despite decent reviews, never quite sell as well as expected, or have simply gone unappreciated for many years. 7 Star Wars: Bounty Hunter (2002) This game about Jango Fett is far from perfect, as the controls can feel stiff and awkward at times. However, when it works, it delivers a proper bounty hunter game that acts as a precursor to the likes of The Mandalorian....
Sadly, the last college football video game was released in 2013. (To catch up on the saga behind that and any potential return check out the latest developments here.) Despite that, “NCAA Football 14” still holds up well, especially with the ability to continue creating and sharing rosters. To get an idea of what could happen on New Year’s Eve we turned to “NCAA 14” to simulate the games with up-to-date rosters (which on Xbox 360 can be downloaded from Roster Share with gamertag Pastapadre) that also reflect some ratings changes based on player performance this season....
RELATED: The Best Horror Movies On HBO Max The “classics” are deemed as such for a reason, but ignoring everything else produced during the ’80s would cause someone to miss out on plenty of great fright fests. Therefore, here are a few forgotten ’80s horror films to add to the line-up this Halloween or to watch on a random Tuesday night. 10 Prince Of Darkness (1987) In the late ’80s, John Carpenter transitioned into slightly comedic territory with the fantastic Big Trouble in Little China and They Live....
You can bet there’ll always be lots of great college players, though, who were either overlooked or underrated by the recruiting analysts. We feel confident saying this because it’s true every year, from Victor Oladipo and Trey Burke to Shabazz Napier and Russ Smith. So many of the best college basketball players are not highly-rated recruits, in part because of the transformative ability of college basketball and the coaches employed there, and in part because it’s a natural hazard for scouts to be more impressed by an athlete’s physicality than his will, skill and hunger....

What Is Functional Connectivity MRI? Many fMRI studies are done while the patient is actively doing some activity. For example, if they push a button with their right hand, you may later see part of the left hemisphere near the motor cortex light up at that time. Another approach is to look at the brain while the research volunteer is doing nothing at all in the scanner—just lying there. This technique is sometimes called “resting state” fMRI....
