Reading List and What's to Come in August
Despite feeling as if it just began, July is coming to an end. It was a light month for new installments of The Press Break, but your humble author was in the lab for the duration.
Please enjoy a few reads I have produced in recent weeks, and keep your eyes open come September for the 2023-24 Lindy’s Sports College Basketball Preview. I provided more coverage for the tipoff magazine than in any past edition, which I’ll preview simply saying the last year of Pac-12 hoops in its current incarnation promises to be one of the most exciting in the conference’s history.
Until then, check out some of my features from July:
