Did Theo Von actually score a date with the mother of Diego Pavia?

Back in September, Pavia, who makes more in NIL money than Shedeur Sanders, apparently made a bet to the podcaster and comedian that stated Von could go on a date with his mother if the Commodores knocked off No. 11 South Carolina.

He likely had no clue that he and his team would go and do just that.

SEC Network sideline reporter Cole Cubelic even spoke with Von about the bet, and he confirmed that it was real.

“The way I understand the story is that — maybe just give me a nod if this is OK,” Cubelic started. “Diego Pavia wins this game; he promised you he would set you up with a date with his mom.”

Von gave confirmation as he nodded his head and said, “Yes.”

Fast forward to the end of October, and it appears that Von has at least met Diego Pavia’s mother.

Comedian Theo Von has sparked interest with his lighthearted pursuit of a date with Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia’s mom.

What started as a bet seems to have become a real-life thing.

Pavia appeared on the show Nightcap with Shannon Sharpe and Chad Ochocinco, where he showcased Theo Von’s presence during the interview.

Von could be seen standing beside Pavia’s mom with his arm around her, adding to the excitement of the moment.


Aside from the meeting, Diego Pavia also invited Sharpe and Ochocinco to attend a Vanderbilt game.

Von spoke about the experience as he stated Vanderbilt’s recruiting scene has evolved. “They got more recruits here now,” Von added.

“When I first came, they had probably six recruits on the sidelines. There was one guy in a wheelchair, and I thought, ‘What is he gonna do?’ But today, against Missouri, they had around 150 recruits. It’s wild. It’s different.”

Vandy has a huge matchup coming against the Texas Longhorns.

“Obviously, the quarterback is the tip of the spear,” Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian said of Pavia ahead of the game.

“He’s one of the more competitive players that I’ve competed against. He’s their leading rusher. He obviously passes the ball. He makes plays at critical moments when they need to have it. And so he’s a guy that, you know, all the praise that he’s getting is well deserved. He’s a very good football player. And I think you know one thing about playing quarterback, it’s not always about the passes you throw, it’s not always about the runs you make, it’s about instilling belief in your teammates and instilling belief in your organization, instilling belief in your fan base. And I think Diego Pavia has done that for that program, and so all the credit the world to him, all the credit in the world to Clark (Lea), and the start that they’ve had in the season.”

A win for Pavia and the Commodores would move them to 8-1 on the season and 4-1 in the SEC.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
