Dusty May on Viral Izzone Photo: ‘Those Kids Are Never Going to Get Under My Skin’

Everyone saw the photo. There was Michigan men’s basketball coach Dusty May, legs crossed, left arm draped casually over the back of a chair. Behind him, Michigan State fans packed into the Izzone – Michigan State’s student section – screaming, booing, and unloading everything they had. The snapshot, taken ahead of the Wolverines’ 83-71 win over the Spartans in East Lansing back on Jan. 30, caught fire across social media within hours. May’s calm demeanor drowning in a sea of green and white. May addressed the viral moment on Monday when he joined FOX Sports’ Colin Cowherd on “The Herd.” “I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say you actually enjoyed this,” Cowherd said, suggesting May was silently taunting Spartan fans when the photo was taken. May laughed at the premise, but he didn’t exactly deny it. “I’m completely out of how I am by nature when I’m coaching now,” May said. “I’m a small, fiery, Irish guy who probably got in more fights growing up than I had easy days. Once I got into coaching, I basically left all of that behind and became a borderline pacifist.” And that right there is part of what made the image so striking. Ahead of one of college basketball’s fiercest rivalries, with the Izzone — widely regarded as one of the loudest student sections in the sport — unleashing their fury on him, May looked unbothered. “If a bunch of 18- to 22-year-olds who were probably overserved beginning at 8 a.m. want to yell and scream obscenities at me, let them go ahead,” May said. “It’s all part of the game.” Which raises the obvious question: Was Cowherd correct in his initial assumption? Did May, who is now in his second season at Michigan and has the Wolverines in position to secure a No. 1 seed in this year’s NCAA Tournament, get some quiet satisfaction out of the moment? “There’s nothing any of those people can say that is going to get a rise out of me,” May admitted. “So yes, in a way, I did enjoy it, but just for the fact that those kids are never going to be able to get under my skin.” On Sunday, the rivalry resumes in Ann Arbor, and this time, it’ll be Michigan State walking into the storm.​Latest Sports News from FOX Sports

Maxx Crosby Trade Rumors: Deal Could Reportedly Happen Soon; Cowboys Among Suitors

Maxx Crosby isn’t a free agent, but the Las Vegas Raiders’ star edge rusher might be the top player moved in the NFL this offseason. Trade rumors continue to swirl surrounding Crosby after he stormed out of the Raiders’ team facility when the team told him he would sit the final two games of the 2025 regular season. In February, FOX Sports NFL insider Jay Glazer said that Crosby’s time in Las Vegas was likely finished, only increasing the trade speculation. So, will Crosby get dealt, and if so, where? Here are the latest rumors surrounding his potential trade. Maxx Crosby trade could reportedly happen this week, with Cowboys being among suitors We might not have to wait much longer for Crosby to find his next home. A trade involving Crosby could happen as soon as this week, Sports Illustrated reported Monday. The Cowboys, Bears, Ravens, Bills, Patriots, Eagles and Rams are all among the teams that are “keeping tabs” on the Crosby situation as well, according to Sports Illustrated. When it was first rumored that Crosby could get traded this offseason, it was speculated that he might not get moved until around the NFL Draft in April due to his recent knee surgery. But the Raiders reportedly aren’t looking to shop Crosby in the general sense, and a trade involving the star edge rusher might get the ball rolling on other deals this offseason. As for the teams interested in Crosby, the Cowboys expressed interest in him ahead of the trade deadline in November, Glazer reported at the time. Crosby has also said in the past that he’d love to play for Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, according to The Athletic. What Raiders are reportedly looking for in a Crosby trade The framework for a potential Maxx Crosby trade might be similar to the last trade involving a star edge rusher. Las Vegas is looking for two first-round picks and a player in any deal involving Crosby, Pro Football Talk reported. That ask is similar to what the Cowboys got for Micah Parsons in August, landing two first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark from the Packers. Crosby is arguably as good a player as Parsons, but there are reasons why some are skeptical that the Raiders will be able to receive that much in a trade. Crosby will be 29 when the 2026 season starts, while Parsons was 26 when he was traded. Parsons also signed an extension with Green Bay when he was traded, presumably adding to his value. Crosby is under contract for four more seasons, but he’s also coming off meniscus surgery and has dealt with injuries over the last few years. Raiders GM John Spytek says team is “listening” to any possible offers for Crosby When Raiders general manager John Spytek met with reporters at the NFL Scouting Combine, he seemed to express a desire to keep Crosby. “Maxx is an elite player,” he told reporters at the combine “I’ve been very upfront from the start when I got here that we’re in the business of having really good players on the team, and we need a lot more of them. And it’s hard to build a great team without elite players.” However, Spytek also made it clear that the team is listening to all offers. “We’re always listening,” said Spytek when asked if Crosby was untradeable. FOX Sports NFL writer Henry McKenna interpreted those quotes as a likely sign that the Raiders have accepted their fate with Crosby and will likely trade him. “It’s understandable that the Raiders don’t want to trade Crosby. It’s also starting to feel unrealistic,” McKenna wrote. “He doesn’t want to be there, and when a player of Crosby’s caliber makes a decision like that, it forces the team’s hand. So at some point before the draft, there will likely be a blockbuster trade that sends Crosby to a new home.”​Latest Sports News from FOX Sports

Alaska House OKs bill to crack down on AI-generated child sexual abuse material

By: Corinne Smith, Alaska Beacon

Anyone that possesses, creates or shares child sexual abuse material created with artificial intelligence in Alaska would face new state felony charges under legislation advanced by the Alaska House of Representatives on Friday — plus AI companies and social media companies could face state penalties too. 

House members passed House Bill 47 almost unanimously by a 39 to 0 vote, with Rep. Neal Foster, D-Nome, absent. The bill is sponsored by Rep. Sarah Vance, R-Homer, and would enact new state felony charges for creating AI-generated images or videos that visually depicts sexually explicit or obscene content involving anyone under the age of 18. Previously known as child pornography, it’s now referred to as child sexual abuse material or CSAM.

“A decade ago, we couldn’t even imagine what it is that the vulnerable and our children are facing, and tools that are being used to exploit them,” Vance said Friday on the House floor ahead of the vote. “But here we are in a fast-paced technological environment, and our prosecutors are left with very few tools,” she said. 

Vance lauded the bill as closing a gap in state criminal law. Currently there are no state laws directly addressing AI-generated CSAM, though there are statutes that prohibit the viewing, possession and distribution of child sexual abuse materials. Vance emphasized that the bill would update Alaska law to penalize AI-generated CSAM, and noted it would apply regardless of whether images depict a victim or AI-generated material.  

“Currently in statute, you have to prove the harm of an actual child. And what this bill does is says that anything that is generated obscene material of minors will be criminalized to the same level as if it were a real child,” Vance said. 

Vance and others pointed to the recent arrest of an Alaska senator’s chief of staff for soliciting minors for CSAM on Snapchat, and the need to increase state penalties. Other lawmakers said the case demonstrates the need for more parental controls on minors’ social media. 

Legislators added on and approved significant parental controls and penalties for tech companies too, through an amendment process on Wednesday. 

Under the revised bill, social media companies will require age verification and parental or guardian consent for minors to create or maintain social media accounts. Parents would have full access to minors’ social media, including all minors’ messages and interactions on the platform. The bill enacts a social media curfew for minors from 10:30 p.m. to 6:30 a.m., unless modified by a parent. 

Rep. Zack Fields, D-Anchorage, sponsored the amendments and said with increased parental control measures, parents and guardians will be able to intervene on potentially predatory behavior or victimization of children. 

“The fundamental question is: Do parental rights supersede the rights of predators?” Fields said on the House floor Wednesday. “And do parental rights supersede the rights of multi-national corporations, which we have heard knowingly target children with addictive, destructive algorithms. We know that.”

Targeted advertising to minors on social media would also be prohibited, as would content targeting minors, addictive design or features that “encourages or rewards a minor user’s excessive or compulsive use of the platform or that exploits the psychological vulnerabilities of a minor user,” according to the bill. 

Families or the state would be able to bring civil legal action against social media companies for harm due to such violations under the bill, and companies could face a penalty of up to $10,000 for each violation. 

“I don’t care how hard it is. We should not back down from Big Tech when it comes to protecting our children,” Fields said. 

The amendment passed with a 28 to 12 vote, with supporters and opponents spanning party lines.

Rep. Genevieve Mina, D-Anchorage, the youngest member of the House, opposed the provision. 

“I absolutely agree that social media can be harmful for youth, especially given the vast environment, where there are a lot of different strangers and people on the internet. I also know I’m probably one of the only people in the body who very much grew up online,” she said Wednesday on the House floor.  

“I’ve wrestled back and forth with these types of policies, especially as it relates to age verification or requiring consent from a minor,” she said, and added that she shared concerns about first amendment and privacy rights. “But I just don’t believe that age verification through government regulation is the right way.” 

Vance, the sponsor of the bill, also opposed the increased parental controls provision citing First Amendment concerns. 

Lawmakers also voted to approve a provision levying civil penalties on any AI organization that facilitates users creating AI-generated CSAM of up to $1 million for each instance. 

Rep. Calvin Schrage, D-Anchorage, sponsored the amendment which was passed unanimously. 

“I think this is something that creates an incentive for these large companies to curtail or at least put some controls and protections around what I think can be a very powerful and useful tool, but is so often used today for really malicious, nefarious and, I would say, disgusting purposes,” Schrage said. 

The bill would also prohibit the distribution of generated sexual depiction of adults without their consent or participation. It would also prohibit distribution of a “forged digital likeness,” known as “deep fakes” often used as misinformation, revenge pornography, scams or blackmail. 

The bill now advances to the Senate.
