  "But he took that a step further and he really helped a lot of other athletes and helping them in their post career days and always saying that no matter how much money it is, it can be gone, it can be lost and it can evaporate rather quickly. And there's no shortage of stories that say he's absolutely right. So he really got athletes to think about, hey, what's your post career going to be like? What are you going to do to make money?"

  "And if I look down, generally I like to cut off teams that are.500 and Big Ten play or conference play to think that they have a realistic shot of actually winning this. And when I look across, I see Wisconsin, I see Michigan, who had great seasons but not really playing great ball. Oregon on the other hand, on a nice win streak. They are, they are hot. If they can get by Indiana in the first round, look out."

  "And it really begs the question of, well, first of all, is Indiana still a good program? Is it still a coveted job? Now, even though they haven't had success, basketball is still wildly popular in the state of Indiana and people expect Indiana to be good. Maybe some of this comes from the movie Hoosiers, but make no mistake, Indiana is a very popular program."

  "I put my chips on the Denver Nuggets to actually come through and challenge Oklahoma City to reach the NBA Finals. They have. They know how to get there. They know how it's done. They had that disappointing year last year, and I think they can do it."

  "And I am going to tell you, these big three that are playing today in no way, shape or form are worse to watch than McEnroe and Borg. I watched both of them. You just flat wrong. Nostalgia is creeping in and completely warping your frame of reference. But the other two where it's not. I would say college basketball and boxing, two sports that I think were better back in the day, but it wasn't. And I don't know that."

  "We have lapses in offense and stuff like that that I think will keep us from contending in that top two or top three of the east which is the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston and Celtics. We're not them yet, we're not ready. But I do think we are a 4, 5th, 6 seed. We are a playoff team as constructed, maybe not a play in team anymore."

  "And we thought, hey, this guy's done, this guy's over, he's just not going to make it. But he's playing well and really helping out the younger guys in here. So it's a good mix of younger to older players. Now when you take a look at the great turnarounds in NBA history, I went back and took a look."

  "And this is a what I consider a blue blood college basketball program hungry for a team like this. A team that's going to go to the tournament and look out, they are going to blow the lid off of that arena or wherever they play in the tournament, but staying in that state. You know, UK has their own resurgent coach and Mark Pope team that they're really, really excited about and that'll provide a little bit of a rivalry to see who does better within that state."

  "As soon as the confetti was picked up off the ground in the Philadelphia Eagles super bowl victory this year, people started wondering aloud whether the Tushbush will actually be allowed next year or whether the rules committee will pick this up this year and ban the Tushbush from the competition in the NFL. And then today the Green Bay packers, or mentions the Green Bay packers, but I'm not sure that we know the exact team, but some team filed a grievance with the NFL trying to do just that."
