Senegal women's basketball team members denied US visas, prime minister says
The Senegalese women's basketball team has scrapped plans to train in the U.S. for the upcoming AfroBasket tournament in the Ivory Coast next month after several players and team officials had their visas denied, Senegal's prime minister said. Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko said on Facebook Thursday that the team would train in Senegal's capital, Dakar, 'in a sovereign and conducive setting.' The West African nation's federation said in a statement that the visa applications of five players and seven officials weren't approved. 'Informed of the refusal of issuing visas to several members of the Senegal women's national basketball team, I have instructed the Ministry of Sports to simply cancel the 10-day preparatory training initially planned in the United States of America,' Sonko said. The visa denials come amid a push by the Trump administration to have countries improve vetting travelers or face a ban on their citizens visiting the United States. Senegal wasn't on that list of countries and it was not immediately clear why the visas were denied. The travel ban includes exemptions for the World Cup, the Olympics and any 'other major sporting event,' though it's unclear what is considered a major event. The team is coached by Otis Hughley Jr., who previously led the Nigerian women's basketball team. He was the men's coach at Alabama A&M before resigning in March. Senegal, which was going to train in the U.S. from Sunday through July 3, has finished either first or second in four of the last five AfroBasket championships over the last decade and has won 11 titles in total. The tournament determines Africa's champion, which earns entry into the FIBA World Cup next year in Germany. ___

Oklahoma Sooners predicted to land commitment from 2026 4-Star QB Bowe Bentley
Oklahoma insider @Josh_Scoop has logged an expert prediction for the Sooners to land elite QB Bowe Bentley⭕️Bentley ranks No. 41 NATL. (No. 5 QB) in the 2026 The Oklahoma Sooners quarterback situation in the 2026 recruiting class is beginning to gain some clarity. On Thursday night four-star quarterback Jaden O'Neal decommitted from the Sooners. And now, the Sooners have apparently taken the lead for four-star quarterback Bowe Bentley. Without a commitment date in sight, the Sooners are battling with Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers for one of the fastest-rising players in the 2026 cycle. Josh McCuistion, who covers recruiting for SoonerScoop and On3 (subscription required), issued a prediction favoring the Oklahoma Sooners ahead of this weekend's ChampU BBQ. It's the first prediction logged from any site for Bentley, who saw his recruitment take off after participating in the Navy All-American game in January. He has 20 Power Four offers, most of which came in the last six months. Bentley had a phenomenal junior season for Celina, throwing for 47 touchdowns to just seven interceptions. He also rushed for 16 touchdowns in an undefeated, state championship season. Oklahoma offered Bentley on January 24 and have made him a priority over the last six months. He's drawn comparisons to new Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer, and there's a lot to like about his dual-threat game. If the Sooners can lock up a commitment from the talented prospect out of Texas, they'll get one of the more prolific quarterbacks in the cycle. Bowe Bentley Recruiting Profile Bowe Bentley (@bowebentley) is one of the top QBs in the country, leading @RecruitCelinaFB to title No. 9 last season.
