NIL deals at Power 5 schools are often just booster kickbacks, not real endorsements

Tell me what have you seen them [Power 5 recruits] endorse? ... How can you get a million dollars worth of endorsements for a kid at these power fives and nobody sees nothing? ... At least if you say you're going to do something, we got to at least see it. The NCAA should hold people accountable if they say they got a deal.

Fact ClaimCFBHotSubjective
While NIL collectives often operate with less public commercial output than traditional endorsements, his claim that they are often 'kickbacks' is a widely held but difficult-to-verify industry perspective.

Tom Izzo is overrated

I picked a really bad time to unearth the Tom Izzo is overrated thing.

Hot TakeCBBHotSubjective
Izzo is a Hall of Fame coach with a national title and numerous Final Four appearances; 'overrated' is a subjective and highly debated label in the PMT universe.

Drew Timmy is soft because his shoulders are too small

I think [Drew Timmy's] shoulders are too small. They sink down a little bit. They're too small. He doesn't have—you can't play in the low post without man shoulders. He's got like Reggie Miller shoulders. They're two slender.

Hot TakeCBBFireSubjective
While Timmy was a highly decorated college player, the claim that he is 'soft' or 'too small' in the shoulders is a subjective character/physical assessment.

Providence is a legitimate threat to make the Final Four

Providence look 24 and three. Yes, they've won some tight games, but overall 24 and three is 24 and three. So I think they can make the Final Four. So why not?

PredictionCBBMedium
Providence reached the Sweet Sixteen in 2022, losing to the eventual champion Kansas Jayhawks. They did not reach the Final Four.

NFL Quarterback Ranking: Aaron Rodgers is #1, Mahomes #2, and Dak Prescott is #3

Number one, Tom Brady's retired... Aaron Rodgers is one. Mahomes is two. Dak is three. ... Four, I'm going to go with my guy from Buffalo, Josh Allen.

OpinionFootballFireSubjective
Player rankings are subjective, but placing Dak Prescott above Mahomes or Allen during this period was widely considered a reach by most NFL analysts.

Travis Hunter will not be the only five-star recruit to join an HBCU

I liked it as well stated. And I don't think he's [Travis Hunter] going to be by himself. I'm just telling you that he's not going to be alone. I promise you. He is not going to be alone. You're going to hear about that real soon.

PredictionCFBFire
While several high-profile recruits did follow Deion to Jackson State (like Kevin Coleman), the movement largely slowed down once Deion moved to Colorado, with Hunter also transferring there.

Gillie Da King could run a sub-5.0 second 40-yard dash

I think he could break a five-flat 40. I really do.

Fact ClaimFootballMedium
The claim hasn't been officially verified with a laser-timed 40.
