I am officially starting a #FireMikeHopkins campaign for the Washington Huskies

I gave Spencer Hawes our good friend my word that I would start a fire Mike Hopkins hashtag. So if anyone wants to join me on that, the Huskies, I think have not been to the tournament in like three or four years. So we'll do, maybe I'll do that for him. Mike Hopkins, you suck.

Hopkins was eventually fired by Washington in March 2024 after several mediocre seasons.

The next Syracuse head coach should be forced to run the 2-3 zone in perpetuity

I hope whoever the next coach is at Syracuse, they should just have to run the zone forever. That should be Boeheim's legacy. Like I will retire, but you have to run my zone in, in perpetuity for the next hundred years.

Syracuse's next coach, Adrian Autry, did initially state he would use the zone less, and they transitioned toward more man-to-man defense.

It is Rick Pitino or bust for the St. John's head coaching job

Rick Pitino better be at a major school next year because it's time. And there's some openings that perfectly fit Rick Pitino... The choice for St. John's now really is a simple one: Rick Pitino or bust.

Rick Pitino was hired as the head coach of St. John's on March 20, 2023.

Aaron Rodgers might retire just to prove he doesn't need the $59 million

The more I think about it, the more he might retire just so that he could have the Trump card on everybody to be like, yeah, I'm the motherfucker who walked away from 59 million. Like, like that's his credibility... I think that Aaron might actually retire just so that he can have that moral high ground for the rest of his career.

Aaron Rodgers did not retire; he was traded to the New York Jets and accepted a restructured contract.

The Ravens are using a physical loophole to back out of the Maxx Crosby trade

I'm calling bullshit on all this. It does feel like something's fishy here. And maybe it's just the Ravens using the loophole of, hey, we can see, we can trade for Maxx Crosby, see how the rest of free agency plays out, knowing that this stupid legal tampering and then official free agency, there's a two day gap and then just figure it out later.

The trade was literally rescinded, but the 'nefarious loophole' theory is a subjective interpretation of front office tactics.

The NFL needs a 'no-backsies' rule for players who post elaborate social media goodbye videos

If you post a 13 minute goodbye video on social media like Maxx Crosby did, that should just be trade final. You can't come back on that... I actually am rooting for Maxx Crosby to be on the Raiders now because that will be so awkward and funny.

This is a humorous rule proposal, not a verifiable prediction.

The Panthers were right to overpay for Jaelan Phillips

The Panthers getting Jaelan Phillips, even though it was a lot of money, I feel like you gotta do it. Cap went up and I feel like you have to do those type of moves, especially when you are a playoff team from last year. Your defense was a problem... I'd be like, oh, Howie's interested? I'll give him more money.

The success of the Panthers' defense with Phillips will determine if the overpay was justified.
