The Northville High School basketball coach pulled a female athlete’s hair from behind after the loss, and it went viral.

Days after he disgraced his image worldwide, a lip reader has finally broken down what Jim Zullo said during the heated moment.

The incident occurred on March 21, 2025. It happened following a loss to La Fargeville in the New York State Class D championship. Zullo was seen on video pulling the hair of his player, Hailey Monroe, which went viral and sparked significant backlash.

This altercation took place while the team awaited the medal presentation. Monroe appeared visibly upset and tearful after the game.

According to lip reader Nicole Hickling, Monroe’s teammate Ahmya Tompkins reacted to coach Zullo saying – “Leave her. That’s not okay.”

However, Zullo kept his anger channeled at Monroe before Tompkins responded- “No, leave her.”  

After finding out her teammate confronting Monroe, Zullo said- “You shut it.”

The game, held on March 21, 2025, resulted in a close defeat for Northville, with a final score of 43-37 against La Fargeville.

Subsequent to the incident, Zullo was fired by the Northville Central School District within hours of the event.

In light of public outrage, the Northville Central School District swiftly terminated Zullo’s coaching position. The District also issued a statement that condemned his behavior and emphasized the importance of respect and integrity within their programs.

Following his firing, Zullo publicly apologized, acknowledging that his actions were inappropriate and expressing regret for what transpired. He expressed pride in his players and hoped for their continued success.

“As a coach, under no circumstance is it acceptable to put my hands on a player, and I am truly sorry. I wish I could have those moments back,” Zullo said.

On March 24, he was charged with harassment in the second degree, following a report by the Hudson Valley Community College Public Safety.

Hailey Van Lith Opens Up About Her Life-Threatening Struggles With Mental Health

Her emotional confession has sparked a wave of support from fans and athletes alike, highlighting the pressure of elite competition.

Hailey Van Lith is no stranger to the spotlight, but the road to success has been far from easy. After an impressive college basketball journey that included stops at Louisville and LSU, the star guard is now thriving at TCU. Yet, despite the accolades, Van Lith revealed a deeply personal battle she fought behind closed doors.

Following TCU’s NCAA Tournament victory over Louisville, Van Lith took a moment to share her struggles with mental health. In an emotional postgame interview, she spoke candidly about the challenges she faced while balancing the pressures of basketball and public scrutiny.

From Darkness To Light

Van Lith admitted that her rise to prominence came with a heavy cost. Speaking to Sports Illustrated’s Nick Girimonte, she revealed that her early exposure to media and social platforms left her struggling mentally.

Hailey Van Lith revealed she struggled with mental health issues due to early media and social media exposure. She admitted, “When I was younger and in college, I was suicidal, heavily medicated, and felt trapped. You would never know because I was having a ton of success on the court, but internally and in life in general, I was ready to be done.”

Her journey took a turn when she decided to transfer to TCU for her final collegiate season instead of turning pro. The move wasn’t just about basketball, it was about finding peace.

“To come from that and do this is incredible,” Van Lith added. “I’ve been praying all year like, ‘God, I know you’ve given me this testimony to share it with the world and shed your light.’”

Her story powerfully reminds us of the importance of mental health awareness, especially in high-pressure environments like college athletics. As TCU prepares to face Notre Dame in the Sweet 16 on Saturday, Van Lith’s journey inspires beyond the game.

ESPN Facing Major Scrutiny Over Their Head-Scratching Decision Following JuJu Watkins’ Devastating Injury

After JuJu Watkins’ heartbreaking season-ending injury, ESPN made a decision that has left fans confused and frustrated. Many are questioning the network’s judgment, while others argue there’s more to the story. Social media is buzzing—did ESPN cross the line, or is the backlash unnecessary?

USC women’s basketball star JuJu Watkins was left screaming in agony after appearing to suffer a serious right knee injury in the first quarter of the Trojans’ Second Round game.

With just under five minutes remaining in the first quarter of the NCAA Tournament Second Round matchup between USC and Mississippi State, Watkins was attempting to drive towards the basket on a transition play before getting fouled by Chandler Prater.

She would grab for her right knee immediately.

Her pain was captured by ESPN.

It was a moment that was already devastating and heartbreaking, and not many people appreciated ESPN’s decision to continue to show close-up footage of JuJu Watkins in pain.

“I’ll just say, I don’t appreciate how long the camera stayed on Juju when she went down. Switch angles, go to commercial, something! But don’t continue broadcasting,” one fan said.

 

“The camera zooming in on Juju crying in pain is so f–king unnecessary!! wtf ESPN!” a second fan added.

“ESPN’s choice of photo for JuJu’s injury is disgusting & blatantly insensitive. IK her girlies were worried about her in the moment, I just wish they would’ve huddled closer to her only/mainly for that reason. That weird USC treatment is the same on both coasts. I wonder why? 🤔” another fan stated.

“CAMERA PPL, STOP HOVERING OVER PLAYERS WHEN THEY ARE IN PAIN!!!!!” WNBA star Dearica Marie Hamby commented.

One final fan added: “And also replaying the injury. We got it. It’s unnecessary. It’s torturous. Not everything needs to be televised.”

Watkins is a back-to-back first-team AP All-American, finishing the regular season averaging 24.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.

USC star JuJu Watkins suffered a torn ACL during her team’s 96-59 win over No. 9 seed Mississippi State in the second round of the 2025 Women’s NCAA Tournament.

Watkins went down during the first quarter and was writhing on the floor in pain. It was so bad that she needed to be carried off the floor without putting any weight on her injured leg.

Watkins is likely to be out for nine months, which means she will miss a large part of the 2025 season.

The 22-year-old’s white zebra-print one-piece featured sultry cutouts as she posed in Bermuda’s clear blue ocean water.

Here is how fans reacted:

“Stunning view and the crystal blue water 👏👏👏,” one fan said.

“HELLO! Love this shot,” fellow Sports Illustrated model Jena Sims added.

“UM YESSS,” said fellow Sports Illustrated model Xandra Pohl to Olivia Dunne.

“I ❤️ you and I ❤️ Bermuda!!” another fan commented about her shoot.

“Absolutely Gorgeous!❤️” a fifth fan stated.

One final fan added: “Rumor says her genetics are super prestigious.”

Olivia Dunne coming back for a fifth year was a good idea as she and LSU’s gymnastics team took the crown at the SEC Championship for the second straight year.

Taking to her Instagram Stories on Saturday, the 22-year-old gymnast gave her 5.3 million followers an inside look at the confetti-filled celebrations in Birmingham.

Dunne and her teammates can be seen holding up the championship hardware.

LSU posted a program-best score at the SEC Championship, 198.200.

Dunne, who was part of LSU’s national title-winning roster last year, was not on the lineup card ahead of Saturday’s event.

Dunne stated earlier this month that she had been dealing with a knee injury.

Travis Kelce Monday announcement shocked Everyone

NFL fans were left speechless after Travis Kelce dropped a bombshell on Monday. Speculation is running wild, theories are flying, and social media is in total meltdown. What did the Chiefs superstar reveal that has everyone talking?

Travis Kelce recently discussed one of the things he struggled with as a youngster.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was the subject of much criticism last season, with many suggesting he was too far past his best to be effective, with his effort during the Super Bowl standing out as one of the worst performances of his career.

Still, Kelce has opted to return next season, and whether he regains some of his prowess from years past remains to be seen.

The TE and his brother, Jason Kelce, had actor Ben Stiller on their ‘New Heights’ podcast this week. They brought up multiple topics, including Stiller’s old movie, ‘Heavyweights.’

The 1995 film saw Stiller play a fitness enthusiast who ran a camp for overweight boys who eventually turned on him because of his extreme methods.

The topic would prompt Travis to disclose he struggled with his weight as a child.

“I was a heavyweight growing up,” he recalled. “Jason, he didn’t get fat until he went to office. We switched places growing up. So Jason is more newly founded into it.”

A surprised Stiller asked, “So seriously, you were dealing with weight issues?” 

“I think I was dealing with my love for honey buns,” Kelce replied. “That’s what I was kinda dealing with more.” 

Travis Kelce Wanted To Be In ‘Heavyweights,’ In One Sense

Despite his weight challenges, Travis Kelce claimed he was a big fan of the movie and would have wanted to attend a camp such as the one Stiller’s character was in charge of.

“I saw Heavyweights and was like, ‘Oh, man. If there’s a camp out there like that, I wanna go to it.’ Just kids that can be fat together and hide candy in their beds.”

Stiller admitted that a movie like ‘Heavyweights’ wouldn’t be produced in the current era, although he appreciated Kelce’s praise.

Kelce also faced accusations of being out of shape and not taking his condition as seriously in 2024. But losing in the Super Bowl the way he did is likely to motivate him to go out on a high note if next season will indeed be his last.

Slater primarily covers the Dallas Cowboys, who are coming off a disappointing 2024 season. The Cowboys had a bunch of injuries, missed the playoffs and parted ways with head coach Mike McCarthy.

Dallas surprised most of the NFL world by hiring offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. The Cowboys are working on a contract extension for Micah Parsons and looking to add necessary talent and depth in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft.

The Cowboys will look to get back into playoff and Super Bowl contention in 2025. Slater will be there for the ride, but it’s good to see her getting some down time during an otherwise very busy NFL offseason.

Jacksonville Jaguars Quarterback Trevor Lawrence Signed Massive New Extension

Last week, the Jacksonville Jaguars shocked everybody when they and Trevor Lawrence agreed to a massive five-year contract extension worth $275 million, with $200 million of it guaranteed.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, his deal also includes $142 million at signing. The deal is the third-largest amount of fully guaranteed money in NFL history.

“It does feel good to have it done,” Lawrence said, per ESPN. “That was a goal that [the Jaguars] and myself and my team wanted to get done is to have it finished by the time training camp came around so we could just put everything towards this year and getting ready to go bring a championship here.”

 

The Jaguars are now hoping that the team can rebound from the choke job they had last year when they started the year 8-3 and failed to qualify for the postseason.

Travis Kelce’s Ex-Girlfriend Stuns Fans with Jaw-Dropping Underwear Confession

NFL gossip just hit a new level after Travis Kelce’s ex dropped a shocking revelation that has everyone talking. Social media is in a frenzy, speculating whether this was a casual confession or a sneaky jab at the Chiefs superstar. Is there more to the story than meets the eye?

Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, appeared on Cameron Brink’s podcast this week to discuss a plethora of topics, including her “hot take” on underwear.

Nicole, a Pepperdine University graduate, has been a fairly popular name in the world of sports for several years. While she definitely generated some buzz as Kelce’s girlfriend from 2017-2022, she has carved out an impressive career as both a journalist and fitness influencer. She’s currently the host of the “I Am Athlete Daily” podcast.

Before Nicole talked about her fitness brand, Tribe Therepe, she shared her thoughts on wearing underwear in public. Her take on this topic might just surprise you.

Nicole admit that she’s not a huge fan of wearing underwear. In fact, she referred to it as “entirely overrated” while on Brink’s podcast.

“This is my confession,” Nicole said. “Wearing underwear is entirely overrated. More women need to do what Sexyy Red says and let that [expletive] breathe.”

Straight to Cam.

Despite what she said about underwear, Nicole acknowledged there are occasions where her personal preference must be placed to the side.

“There are certain circumstances where I do think you need to put on underwear, like denim or a short skirt,” Nicole added.

While these comments from Nicole might be seen as controversial to some, it appears the majority of the listeners for “Straight to Cam” agree with her.

“Right there with you! The underwear is worn when needed,” one person wrote on Instagram.

“I’d like to second this,” another person commented.

“Glad someone said it cause yeah,” a third person said.

It’s safe to say Nicole was speaking up for a handful of people, not just herself.

Fans of Nicole can check out her full appearance on Brink’s podcast here.

Steelers Legend Calls Out Jayden Daniels’ Mom For Her Questionable Actions Towards USC Female Basketball Star Juju Watkins

NFL and college basketball fans are stunned after a Steelers icon publicly called out Jayden Daniels’ mother for her shocking behavior toward rising USC star JuJu Watkins. The drama is heating up, and social media is on fire! Was she out of line, or is this all overblown?

Fans were speculating that JuJu Watkins’ boyfriend might be Jayden Daniels, but there is no indication the two stars are dating.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels recently attended an NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament game in Los Angeles to watch the star play.

After her game, she would go to the stands and could be seen in a conversation with Daniels.

As ESPN cameras panned to Daniels and Watkins engaged in conversation, but soon, Daniels’ mother would come and sit between them.

Former NFL Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell was not a fan of what she did.

He commented: “If juju not qualified, then who is? Lol”

 

He has a point.

JuJu Watkins already makes a lot of NIL money and is slated to make even more when she eventually moves on to the WNBA.

Unfortunately, it appears that Mama Regina wants nobody trying to slide their way into Jayden Daniels’ bed and get a child out of him.

Regina Jackson Previously Spoke About Women Trying To Come After Jayden Daniels

Regina Jackson, Jayden Daniels’ toughest protector, and agent, stole the spotlight at March Madness with a powerful display of mom-know-best.

Daniels and JuJu Watkins were courtside vibing until Mama Regina stepped in.

Jackson is not messing around when it comes to possible gold diggers coming after her son.

Before Daniels had Washington playing in their first NFC championship since 1991, footage would come out that showed him and his mom appearing on Prime Video’s The Money Game, which followed the school’s star athletes and how they managed new NIL.

Jackson had a warning to women looking at her son and seeing nothing but money bags.

When asked what concerned her the most before entering the NFL, “Girls,” she answered. “Them girls.”

Ad-lt Film Star Bonnie Blue & Titans WR Treylon Burks Are Going Viral Together For All The Wrong Reasons

NFL Twitter is in a frenzy after shocking rumors surfaced involving Treylon Burks and ad-lt film star Bonnie Blue. Fans are speculating, memes are flying, and the internet is running wild with theories. What really went down between the Titans wide receiver and the controversial star?

Ad-lt Film Star Bonnie Blue & Titans WR Treylon Burks (Photos via Instagram and USA Today)
Treylon Burks could badly use a breakout 2025 season.

Last year ended badly for Burks. He was forced to miss the rest of the year after suffering a non-contact knee injury during practice. After a series of examinations by doctors and specialists, it was determined that Burks would need surgery.

Through five games, Burks only played 142 offensive snaps for the Titans and also was used on the kick return team.

His name is going viral for all the wrong reasons this week.

The 18th pick in the 2022 draft has his name alongside ad-lt star Bonnie Blue.

Blue, known for controversial stunts and s3xual escapades, famously slept with more men in 12 hours than Deshaun Watson has pass attempts in his entire Browns career.

The latest news that involves Blue and Burks is that the ad-lt star has had s3x with more men in one day than Treylon Burks having receiving yards in his entire career.

Treylon Burks Named a Potential Cap Casualty This Offseason

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (16) eyes a pass on the first day of training camp at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park Wednesday, July 24, 2024.
The Tennessee Titans placed wide receiver Treylon Burks on injured reserve in October after suffering a non-contact knee injury during practice.

The 18th pick in the 2022 draft hasn’t been the dynamic player that the franchise thought he would be after three seasons.

In three seasons, he has 53 receptions for 699 yards and one touchdown, including four receptions for 34 yards this season.

Now, he may not get a fourth with the squad.

The time for NFL first-round draft pick Treylon Burks in Tennessee is coming to an end.

With the No. 1 overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft, his replacement might be coming.

The Athletic came up with potential cap casualties this offseason, and Burks was listed.

“The designated replacement for A.J. Brown, the other side of one of the worst personnel moves in franchise history and one of the worst in recent NFL memory, needs a fresh start. The Titans need to stop waiting for him to be a factor. The 2022 first-round pick has been banged up, playing in 27 of 51 possible games. He hasn’t done much with his opportunities — 53 catches for 699 yards and one touchdown. His 2025 cap hit and dead number if the Titans move on from him are the same, $4.6 million. It’s worth moving on and rebuilding the receiving corps around Calvin Ridley.”

Burks has been a disappointment since arriving in Nashville.

Between injuries and subpar performances, he has never been able to live up to his draft pedigree.
