I like Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Maxwell Lewis as sleepers in the Draft

I'm gonna give you two Olivier-Maxence Prosper. The kid from Montreal played at Marquette. I like him. And I also like the kid from Pepperdine, Maxwell Lewis who's probably like late first, early second. ... Prosper, he's just so intense that I, I have a hard time believing like that kind of guy... you actually got somebody who's getting a second and third contract here.

Prosper (24th) and Lewis (40th) both made NBA rosters in 2023. Their 'second and third contract' longevity is still pending.

I would not play for the Wizards right now even for $5 million a year

Honestly, would you play for the Wizards if it was 5 million a year? ... I would not. In five years' time, I would love to play for the Wizards, but right now I'm declining.

A subjective hypothetical claim.

Brian Cashman would have been fired if his name wasn't Brian Cashman

If Brian Cashman's name wasn't Brian Cashman, he would've been fired already. Right. Brian Cashman's a powerful name. ... I I'm like convinced that like if you're, if you're a Stein runner, you hire Brian Cashman. He's like, well, yeah, he's the cash man. That's what we do here.

This is a subjective opinion on front office management and brand value.

Lincoln Riley still has no signature win at USC

If you go through the Lincoln Riley résumé, this is a really long time since starting in '22 to not have that signature win. Give us one. Beat Oregon once and be like, 'Hey, look.'

This is an assertion about USC’s results under Lincoln Riley that can be checked against the record as of the episode date.

The SEC will regain its national-championship dominance

It was still hard for me to believe that they're just not gonna win national championships now because of NIL. That's the kind of parity. I think the SEC is gonna turn this thing back around where they're gonna start rolling through people again.

The SEC’s future national-title results remain unresolved.

BYU is ranked far too highly to be trusted

I was arguing Texas Tech being overlooked because at least they have some P4 wins in there. They looked like shit against Colorado. BYU is eighth in both polls. I'm not putting them in there.

Whether BYU deserves its ranking and can contend is evaluable over the 2026 season, which is not complete.
