I would trade the rights to Jay Wright for John Calipari to coach Villanova.

I do have a, a trade in place for the rights to Jay Wright for John Calipari. Well, yeah. 'Cause he is not gonna come back. So I'll give up the rights to get [Calipari].

John Calipari ended up leaving Kentucky for Arkansas, not Villanova, so this hypothetical scenario never manifested.

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).

I've thought AJ Brown was probably going for a while now. I think it's just gonna, he's just gonna get traded after June 1st.

Brown remained on the Eagles roster past June 1st, 2026.

The NBA's 65-game award rule was specifically created because of Joel Embiid

It's a thousand percent... it's literally the Joel Embiid rule. No, this rule was made because of Joel Embiid. They made the rule because of Joel Embiid because people were upset that he won the MVP and they didn't think that he played enough games.

While the rule was spurred by 'load management' trends, Embiid played 66 games in his MVP season, meaning he would have qualified under the current rule anyway.

The Phillies will regress to a wild card team and lose in the first round

I think Phillies are regressing. They'll still make the playoffs as a wild card team. They'll sneak in and then lose in the first round.

Depends on the 2026 Phillies performance.
