Tom Izzo is officially overrated

The take that I've probably been wrong about, Tom Izzo being overrated. I wanted to be the first person to say that Tom Izzo is overrated. So I think I accomplished that. And then I've been waiting that out. It's starting to look more and more like it's correct adjacent.

Subjective. Izzo is a Hall of Famer, but Michigan State has struggled to reach his previous elite heights in recent years.

Mito Pereira's PGA meltdown wasn't as bad as Jean van de Velde's in 1999

He does have the fact that it's not the worst 18th hole meltdown of the history of the majors that will forever be [Jean] van de Velde, the French guy that ended up taking off his socks. I wish that Mito had tried to do that.

While subjective, Jean van de Velde's 1999 Open Championship meltdown is widely regarded as the most infamous in history.

Rory McIlroy is officially a backdoor cover guy for Top 5 finishes

I think [McIlroy] has become like a backdoor cover guy for top fives. Like he shows up on Sundays when he's out and he comes back in, but yeah. He's striking the ball well.

McIlroy has a well-documented history of final-round surges that result in high finishes but not wins in majors during this era.

I'm betting heavily on Rory McIlroy to win the 2022 Open Championship

Going to place a hefty bet on Rory in the Open Championship. It's at the Old Course this year. Yeah. Fuck it. It's Rory's home course. Let's all bet on Rory in the Open.

Rory McIlroy finished 3rd at the 2022 Open Championship at St. Andrews; Cameron Smith won.

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.
