I chose retirement to avoid moving my family for a one-year deal

It's going to be a one year deal. So it's probably going to only be for six months. And then I'm going to move back to Nebraska... If I was going to play, I felt like it was going to be me being a little bit selfish because it's been about me the last 10 years. So maybe it's time to be about my family a little bit more.

This is a personal life decision stated by the speaker.

The 2018 first weekend was the craziest in NCAA tournament history

I actually I'm gonna say it: it was the craziest first weekend in tournament history. We had the first ever 16 beat a one... you had two seeds that both could have won the tournament, UNC and Cincy, and then you had two three seeds, Michigan State and Tennessee, who lost.

The 2018 tournament is historically cited as one of the most chaotic ever due to the UMBC upset.

The UMBC upset was a calculated move by the school to develop a national profile and drive admissions

I'm staying a little bit woke on that... this was a very good opportunity for UMBC to develop a national profile with a Twitter account. And then they used it to start like promoting their president. And they tweeted out like links to apply to UMBC.

Hot TakeCBBHotSarcastic
UMBC did indeed see a massive surge in applications and profile following the win, though it wasn't a 'calculated move' to win a basketball game for that purpose.

Kentucky has the easiest path to the Final Four in 2018

Kentucky could not have had a better bracket. Now with everyone imploding in their bracket, they have to get to the Final Four. Because they have no choice now. They have the easiest path to the Final Four.

Kentucky lost to 9-seed Kansas State in the Sweet 16, failing to reach the Final Four despite the easy path.

The Kansas City Chiefs should sign Tom Brady to mentor Patrick Mahomes

I think the Chiefs have the upper hand right now... there's rumors that they're not happy with Mahomes and his leadership. They want Tom there for a year, have him grow... I think they pay Tom and just wait for a year for an extension with Patty. Give him a one-year deal.

Brady signed with the Buccaneers; the Chiefs did not pursue him to mentor Mahomes.

The COVID-19 pandemic is the easiest time ever for athletes to get away with taking PEDs

It would be the easiest time ever to take PEDs, the absolute absolute easiest time, because you could get out of it. Like, what are they going to say, 'No, you don't have symptoms'? Yes, I do. And then you just maybe you just cough or something. You will not get tested.

While anecdotal evidence of increased usage is hard to verify, the logic regarding testing disruptions was sound.
