Friday Locks With Brent Musberger + Gold Medal Winner Amanda Kessel

Recap
PFT CommenterTom Crean will never have an FBI scandal because he is 100% above board.
There's zero chance that Georgia gets caught up in an FBI scandal with Tom Crean. Because that guy is above board 100%.
Big CatA 16-seed will only ever beat a 1-seed if multiple star players on the 1-seed suffer freak injuries or illnesses.
The 16th seed is not going to win where everyone says this is the year the 16th seed wins. The 16th seed is going to win because the best player on the one seed breaks their ankle walking onto the court, and then the second best player has diarrhea, and then the third best player tears his ACL... and then maybe they will win by one.
Big CatJosh Allen will throw the ball 90 yards at his Pro Day.
At his pro day, [Josh Allen] will probably throw the ball 90 yards. No joke. I'm not kidding. He'll throw it 90 yards. Just wait. I promise you. I'll bet a car on it. He will throw the ball 90 yards.
Big CatJimmy Graham is over the hill and past his prime.
I think Jimmy Graham's over the hill. I'll sit on that take, and I'll probably be wrong, but I'm happy to say it.
Big CatJohn Skipper's story about leaving ESPN due to cocaine extortion is missing key details.
I don't believe this is the full story. So my PR 101 would be maybe tell the whole story because now people are going to be like, huh, that seems a little odd. You were infrequent and you were careful. And then all of a sudden some random drug dealer was like [going to extort you].
Interview
Brent MusburgerDon't bet every game of the NCAA Tournament if you want to win money.
You survive March Madness by not betting every game... You can't bet every game and beat these guys. The lines are too tough.
Brent MusburgerProvidence will beat Texas A&M.
Jump all over Providence.
Brent MusburgerBet the Under in the first two days of the NCAA Tournament.
Under is usually the first couple of days. I want you to look at. So I'd be careful [of the Over].
Amanda KesselBasketball isn't really a sport.
Is it [basketball] a sport? You don't even have to watch until the fourth quarter.
Embrace Debate
PFT CommenterJon Gruden is a fun coach and person if you have the right mindset.
If you have a problem with John Gruden, that's about your mindset. You have a post-1999 mindset, and you need a flashback. [To me] he is a fun guy.
