The Jaguars have to pay a 'Jaguars tax' to sign good players

The Jaguars are doing a complete renovation... They're signing everyone, they're paying everybody insane amounts of money because there is a Jaguars tax that you have to pay. Like if you want a good player... you have to pay them like they're superstars to get them to go to the Jaguars.

The Jaguars significantly outspent the league in 2022 free agency, including the controversial Christian Kirk contract, supporting the 'tax' theory.

Houston is a 'fraud' that schedules weak opponents

I hate Houston... I've been calling Houston a fraud for two years. They went to the Final Four last year playing nothing but double digit seeds... They scheduled like a D3 team... Houston loads up on wins on shitty schools.

Houston reached the Elite Eight in 2022, proving they were a top-tier team despite Titus's claims of being a 'fraud'.

Betting on every moneyline underdog is a winning March Madness strategy

It's built out... basically the concept is you put $5 on every money dog. Every money dog, you put $5 in every money dog. The Moneyline dog is your insurance for if your future goes out in the first round.

The strategy of betting every underdog on the moneyline in the first round of the NCAA tournament is historically a losing proposition due to the vig and the high frequency of favorites winning.

Billionaires should pay for their own stadiums

The Bills are getting a $1.4 billion new stadium. It's going to be right next to their old stadium, all paid for by the public... Billionaires should pay for their own fucking stadium.

The Buffalo Bills stadium deal eventually involved $850 million in public funding, a record at the time, confirming Hank's point about public footed bills.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
