  + stars: | 2024-10-29 | by ( Jake Piazza | In | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
First-year Duke men's basketball player Cooper Flagg has agreed to a name, image and likeness deal with PepsiCo -owned Gatorade, according to a Tuesday announcement. As part of the deal, Gatorade will use Flagg in its marketing. Since the approval of NIL deals, college athletes have been able to capitalize on endorsement deals in ways they never could before. Players like Flagg, a highly touted prospect and likely NBA star, have been able to net NIL deals, some of them reportedly worth millions of dollars. Flagg has inked his NIL deals all before playing in a college basketball game that counts toward a season record.

It breaks your heart, but as Carly Simon sang, there is more room in a broken heart. And yet here we are, atoms with consciousness, each of us a living improbability forged of chaos and dead stars.

Ikwuakor noticed that the best leaders are even-tempered. AdvertisementAdvertisementThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with AK Ikwuakor , a 38-year-old executive sales coach lead at Google from Marina Del Rey, California. As an executive coach, corporate team trainer, and consultant, I've worked with leaders and teams from fledgling startups to global conglomerates such as Google, Duke Basketball and the State Department. The best decision can fall flat if it's not translated into action, so the best leaders create a plan, assign responsibilities, and provide people with resources and support. The goal of successful leaders is the opposite of this: maintaining emotional intelligence while executing their daily objectives.

But “The Bear” captures something real about the city’s dining culture — and, more broadly, what you might call the geography of ambition. This is the kind of chef we see Carmy transforming into, and the kind of chef we’re shown surrounding him. In another second-season scene, Sydney has a video chat with the pastry chef Marcus, who has gone to Copenhagen to hone his skills. Marcus receives his own lesson about ambition when he asks Luca, the chef he’s studying under, how he got so good. He came to see this as a good thing: “I could take that pressure off myself.

Texas students line up outside Gregory Gym, some with painted faces or chests, for the chance to snag a seat. Once there, they join longtime fans and starry-eyed kids in screaming their heads off for the Longhorns. “I would kind of compare it to a Duke basketball game, if I’m being honest,” said Logan Eggleston, a senior outside hitter for the Texas team that heads into Thursday’s NCAA volleyball tournament with the nation’s No. “The crowds are right on top of you. You can’t even think when you’re in a game.”
