The NCAA will start rigging the 'First Four' with giant state schools for ratings next year

My prediction is the NCAA is going to think about doing something similar to that next year... They'll definitely have the two biggest names... There might be some monkey business when it comes to the last four in where they don't invite teams like smaller alumni bases. They just get two bona fide giant state schools to square off in that first game for ratings.

Selection Sunday processes remain opaque, but the NCAA has continued to feature major conference programs in the First Four (e.g., Indiana, Michigan State, etc.) since 2021.

I am a Muss Buss believer

I'm a Muss Buss believer. The runs that they [Arkansas] go on, when they decide to step on the gas pedal, the Muss Buss, and they turn it on against Texas Tech, it was like, there's no going back.

Subjective opinion on fanship.

The UNC offense against Wisconsin looked like uncoordinated pool basketball

This performance from UNC was abysmal. The only way I can describe it is UNC looked like they were playing pool basketball on offense. They would get the ball, pivot around, maybe take a couple steps, pass it. They were having no sort of motion, it just looked completely uncoordinated.

This is a subjective aesthetic critique of a basketball game.

Coaches who have won a national championship should be required to wear a suit on the sidelines

If you've won a national championship, you should be required to wear a suit on the sidelines. Bill Self, no. Everyone else, yes. I like Bill Self in a suit. He's a good polo guy, but I agree. Coach K's a suit guy. Jay Wright's a suit guy.

This is an aesthetic and professional opinion that cannot be factually proven right or wrong.

High Point is a very, very good basketball team

I actually think that High Point is a very, very good team. It was no fluke. They're a very good team.

In the context of the transcript, High Point has just upset a major power (Wisconsin), validating their quality.

Never bet an under in a Hawaii game

If Jake's listening, do not bet on any under in a Hawaii game.

This is a subjective gambling strategy.

The St. John's vs. Northern Iowa first-round matchup will be ugly as shit

You and I, they will suck the life of out of you. They've got the second best defense in the entire tournament. They, they are just kind of a pain in the ass to watch snails pace. This game feels like it's gonna be ugly as shit.

Pending the outcome of the game and whether it is high or low scoring.
