00:00Is there anybody on that list as you take a look at Mark and let you say some of the futures where

00:03Duke at a 10 to 1 price here, Houston to win 12 to 1, BYU 14 to 1. It's very hard to understand

00:08where these teams actually will be with the portal open at this point. You know, obviously the NIL

00:12factors in some big time classes coming in for recruiting. Do you have your eye on anybody for

00:17next year's championship odds? I mean, Arkansas would at least warrant a look because of Cal and

00:23what he's able to do in year two there should elevate a lot more. I certainly would look at

00:30a future on Arkansas to get to the final four, probably obviously a lesser number, but still,

00:36you know, you would believe that coach Cal in year two would have a better run than he did this year

00:42in the tournament. This year was pretty impressive, all things considered. I certainly would have a

00:46better run in the SEC, given the fact that they started out, I think, 0-5 or 0-6 in SEC play. So

00:51how can I not look at my Johnnies? Hopefully Rick Pitino can

00:55make them take a step forward. It was, you know, it was bound to happen. They've got to improve

01:00some things, St. John's, but if they can do it, certainly they could be the Kings of the Big East

01:05once again. So those are the teams that I would look at. And yeah, maybe again, Kentucky,

01:10do they take another step forward? Can they figure it? Can Mark Pope and company figure it out?

01:14Zubi Ejiofor back for the Red Storm. Bryce Hopkins, the Providence transfer,

01:18joining him in the front court. There should be some love for Rick Pitino and the Johnnies

01:23in the Big East into 2025-26. Final question for you, Zinno, about these national championship odds,

01:30because there is so much to be determined by the time we get to early November. A lot of that going

01:35to happen in the next few weeks, rounding out the transfer portal in the circus that we have seen

01:40in college hoops. Are any of the numbers, even the teams that you highlighted as maybe bet on teams

01:46for next year? Are any of these prices worth a wager right now?

01:53Um, I mean,

01:55UConn would be.

01:57I think, again, they would

01:58lock and load. I have to wonder, what the hell is BYU

02:00doing up there? Do we really believe BYU

02:02is a national title contender?

02:05I mean, that's the

02:06team on that list that makes me go,

02:08is that a typo? Is that a mistake?

02:10Is that supposed to be another team in there?

02:13Feels like it's a typo.

02:13DJ DeBansa, one of the great recruits

02:16that we have seen with a lot of notoriety around it.

02:19And let me tell you,

02:20the guys out in Utah,

02:21they've got some change to spend.
