Quick Glance: John Calipari Plans to Continue as Kentucky's Head Coach. 'I Love This Job.'

Quick Glance: Kenny Brooks' Virginia Tech Exit and Its Impact on Kentucky
- Two days after fourth-seeded Virginia Tech was upset in the second round of the women's NCAA tournament, Kenny Brooks has stepped down to take over as head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats.
- Brooks boasts an impressive career record as a Division I head coach with a .717 winning percentage in 22 seasons. He replaces Kyra Elzy in Lexington after she was let go due to consecutive losing seasons.
- Brooks brings a successful tenure at Virginia Tech, where he led the team to a Final Four appearance and led the ACC in offensive efficiency and effective field goal percentage. In contrast, Kentucky ranked last in both categories this past season.
- Brooks' departure signifies a time of transition for Virginia Tech, as the team was already facing changes with key players potentially leaving. The Hokies now need to find a new coach who can continue the success under Brooks, while the ACC navigates a period of uncertainty.

Quick Glance: '20 Days in Mariupol' Wins Oscar for Best Documentary

- Chernov called on Russia to cease aggression in Ukraine and urged the release of hostages and civilians in their jails.
- The work of Chernov, Maloletka, Stepanenko, and Lori Hinnant won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for public service and was prominently featured in a Pulitzer for breaking news photography that same year.
