Rich boosters will eventually stop paying millions for recruits because an 18-year-old is a terrible investment

I've always thought that when it comes to alumni paying for players, an investment on an 18 year old is not a great investment. And eventually rich people are going to be like, 'I don't want to pay millions of dollars every single year.' It's going to level out.

The NIL market has indeed seen some 'leveling out' as donors pivot from HS recruiting to the transfer portal, which offers more 'proven' assets.

The Celtics vs Heat series will go at least six or seven games

I expected the [Heat] to come out and play really well tonight just because they were a very good team and it doesn't feel like it... I think this will go back and forth. I think we're have a six or seven game series. I think the heat will win one game in Boston.

The 2022 Eastern Conference Finals went to seven games, with the Celtics winning 4-3.

This is a subjective opinion about league rules that were never changed.

In terms of teams that can compete with Alabama, [Texas A&M] are a significant threat to Nick Saban going forward. But he went on to say the narcissist in him doesn't allow those things to happen.

Texas A&M struggled significantly after this take, finishing 5-7 in 2022. Jimbo Fisher was eventually fired in 2023 without ever truly unseating Saban's dominance.

The Bears could have a top-five offense even if they miss the playoffs

There's a world where the Bears don't make the playoffs, but they're a top-five offense. And our defense is so bad that I can almost—I would be very upset, but I could deal with it.

This resolves when the 2026 regular season ends and Chicago's offensive ranking and playoff status are known.

The Jaguars could win the AFC South

I think the Jaguars are not getting any respect or talked about a lot. I think they're gonna be really good this year. They could win the South. I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna keep going forward.

The Jaguars' season and Trevor Lawrence's 2026 performance will determine the prediction.
