Steve Sarkisian will stay at Alabama as the head coach in waiting

I think that's actually what Nick Saban wants to do is hand the keys to someone because then it's just kind of still Nick Saban... if I were him, that's what I'd want to do. I'd stay there for as long as Saban wanted to coach and then take it over.

Sarkisian left almost immediately after this (Jan 2021) to take the Texas head coaching job.

I'm officially abandoning my Drew Lock 'moxie' take

Drew Lock, I'm ready to abandon. I'm not apologizing. I'm ready to abandon my Drew Lock take, the Moxie take. Please advise me for the most elegant way I can dismount from that take without admitting I was wrong about it.

Drew Lock was eventually traded and became a career backup, confirming Hank's decision to jump ship was correct.

Noah Fant will be an awesome tight end for his second NFL team

I have a take on Noah Fant. I think that Noah Fant is going to be an awesome tight end when he goes to his second team. Yes. That dude is, like, he is baby Eric Ebron... He's just waiting for somebody that – or, like, a decent offense that can get him the ball occasionally.

Fant was traded to the Seahawks (his second team) in 2022. While he has been a solid starter, he has yet to reach 'awesome' elite tight end status.

Cooper Kupp is the most important player on the Rams

Here's a hot take. Team has Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey on it. Most important player, Cooper Kupp. I mean, they do look totally different when he's out there. Last year, their offense kind of went to shit... I said it.

While subjective, Kupp's importance was validated in 2021 when he won the Triple Crown and Super Bowl MVP, proving he was the engine of their championship offense.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.
