With the reveal of the March Madness brackets, Austin Rivers and Pausha Haghighi discuss some of the major changes college basketball has undergone since Austin’s Duke days, namely the evolution in recruiting, NIL, and the transfer portal (00:00). Then, Austin tells the story of how he selected Duke over Florida before talking through age discrepancies in the current college product. Later, the guys lay out reasons why Oklahoma City is beatable in the playoffs, and why they think the referees may change the way they treat Shai Gilgeous-Alexander come playoff time (17:08). Plus, Austin explains why he’s not convinced by the Cavaliers just yet before closing the show with a story about the time he played a game without wearing the proper … uh … equipment (38:17).
