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.

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.

The Chiefs are all the way back and the Chargers suck

The Chiefs are all the way back and the Chargers suck. Mahomes looked bad for the majority of the night until he kind of picked it up at the end of the game.

The Chiefs finished the season 12-5 and made the AFC Championship, confirming they were back as a contender.

The conversion rate of fourth downs will decrease as defenses get used to teams going for it more often

Will the chances of converting [fourth down] decrease as defenses are used to you going forward on fourth down. It used to be you would go for it on fourth down, maybe once a game, maybe that was your best play in your playbook. Now you go forward on fourth, down four times a game. It has to, it can't be as high of a percentage like it's going to decrease. Eventually.

This is a long-term league-wide trend prediction that is difficult to definitively prove, but overall 4th down conversion rates have remained relatively stable despite higher volume.

The NFL intentionally screws over non-winning fanbases like the Browns and Lions

The Browns and the lions or the say, well, I guess you could throw in the saints and the Patriots too, for other reasons. But the Browns Alliance non-winning fan bases. They get screwed by the NFL. Feels like an inordinate amount of time. It feels like the NFL essentially says, oh, well, it's the Browns who cares? Like they, like, what is a bunch of people from Cleveland going to complain?

This is an opinion on league bias against struggling franchises.

I will never admit to losing a race, even to Randy Moss

I'm never going to say I'm going to lose a race. One of the guys that probably would have presented the biggest challenge probably would have been Darrell Green. I just talked to him the other day too, man. He probably would have been the one that presented the most challenge in the prime.

Inherently unverifiable hypothetical between all-time greats in their primes.

95% of college football players are not going pro

I want these kids to go into the workforce and make a difference, man, because 95% of my [kids] are not going pro. That's for every program, 95% of the kids play for you are not going pro.

NCAA data generally supports that less than 2% of college football players make it to the NFL.

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.

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.
