Anyone who says Zach Edey is not good at basketball is a moron.

Anyone who says Zach Edey's not good at basketball is a fucking moron. The guy's good at basketball, especially college basketball. I don't want whatever happens to the NBA happens to the NBA... Anyone who says he is not good at basketball, he is just tall, is being a hater.

Edey won the Naismith Player of the Year and led his team to the Title game, followed by being a top-10 NBA draft pick, vindicating his skill level.

NC State is no longer a Cinderella; they are a team of destiny.

The one Cinderella that's still in there is a Cinderella that we can all focus on in NC State. Also not a Cinderella anymore because they just keep winning. They went from Cinderella to just Team of Destiny. Like, there was a moment when NC State in that Oakland game, they win in overtime, and I'm like, why can't they just win it all?

NC State continued their improbable run all the way to the Final Four as an 11-seed, fulfilling the 'destiny' narrative.

The Big East should have had more teams in the NCAA tournament.

Big East also undefeated. Six and oh Big East. Probably should put more teams in from the Big East.

While subjective, the conference's performance (specifically UConn winning the title) supports the argument that the mid-tier Big East teams were better than the mid-tier teams that made it.

There are ten teams in the Sweet 16 that could conceivably win the National Championship.

I look at the bracket right now and I don't know, 10 out of the 16, I could conceivably see winning it all.

The 2024 field was considered particularly strong at the top, and several different seeds made deep runs (including 11-seed NC State and 4-seed Alabama reaching the Final Four alongside 1-seeds UConn and Purdue).

An adult man cannot wear a sun shirt at a pool unless they are a ginger or a toddler

You can't as an adult man, you can't wear a sun [shirt] unless you're a ginger. Understand that unless you're a ginger and you, if you wear a sun shirt, you just look like a toddler. You look like a toddler at the pool. You can't be doing that. Sun shirts, toddlers, gingers, 50 plus.

This is purely an aesthetic opinion and social commentary.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.
