Ohio State is not good enough to even make the NIT this year

I honestly don't think Ohio State's good enough to make the NIT. They're gonna lose the rest of the season. And the way they've lost is just like every, every which way.

Ohio State finished 16-19 and did not receive an NIT bid.

Eric Bieniemy only joined the Commanders because he was promised they are getting Lamar Jackson

There might be a little deal behind the scenes with Ron Rivera telling Bieniemy 'Lamar gets franchise tag... if it's not exclusive, oh, we're gonna get Lamar now.' Why would he go to Washington, DC... to go to a starting quarterback, Sam Howell, who started precisely one game?

Bieniemy coached the season with Sam Howell and Jacoby Brissett; Lamar remained in Baltimore.

Dan Snyder will sign Lamar Jackson to a fully guaranteed contract just to spite the other NFL owners

Dan Snyder, out of spite just to fuck over the next owner would love nothing more than to give those two first round picks away and on top of that, throwing a shitload of guaranteed money in a contract extension for Lamar Jackson... it would be a fuck you to those [other owners] that don't want these guaranteed contracts.

Lamar Jackson stayed with the Ravens on a non-fully guaranteed contract; Snyder sold the team without making this move.

Lamar Jackson is losing out on major opportunities by not having an agent

It is crazy Lamar Jackson doesn't have an agent. I know like you can, I'm all for player empowerment, but I feel like he is probably losing out on opportunities without an agent. And what team wa—he has no idea what team wants 'em.

While subjective, many analysts noted the difficulty Lamar faced without an agent during the tag process before eventually signing a record deal.

North Carolina's inclusion in the tournament is the most egregious committee decision ever

I thought North Carolina, at no point in the season did they look like an NCAA tournament team. They, they, yeah. They, their, their, their highs weren't very high. Their lows were pretty damn low. And I was, I was stunned. I was, in all the years of, you know, that's how the bracket works. It comes out, we, we lose our minds about teams that got in that didn't deserve it. We, we feel bad for the teams that were left out. This is the most egregious example that I've ever seen.

Whether UNC 'deserved' to be in is subjective, but Titus's claim that they didn't look like a tournament team is a strong opinion on their 2024-25 performance.

The 2025 National Champion will be a 1 or 2 seed

I think the national champion is in that group [of 11 teams meeting KenPom criteria]... I have a really good feeling that it was gonna be a one or a two. 'Cause if you watched all season, it just felt like these teams are just way better than everybody else. I feel that way this year for the first time since 2015. I have that same feeling again.

Florida, the #1 seed, won the 2025 NCAA Championship. In fact, all four #1 seeds made the Final Four, only the second time that has happened.

Michigan State will make the Final Four as a quintessential Tom Izzo team

I settled a, so I have Michigan State going to the final four because I think Auburn's gonna get tripped up somewhere... I do think Michigan State's gonna go to the final four. I think I settled on, they are on a, a typical Michigan State tournament run, but it just started in November.

Michigan State lost to Auburn 70-64 in the Elite Eight and did not make the Final Four.
