So please subscribe or you're going to make Ocho cry. at the St. John's up in Kansas. In 2016, Rick Pitino didn't hold back, declaring the era of the Blue Blood programs is basically over. The Blue Bloods no longer control basketball any longer. There's no difference between Kentucky, North Carolina, that Illinois, St. John's. There's no difference anymore. There's no difference between Michigan State, who's at Blue Blood, and the other teams from the conference from Mississippi. When they get going, it's all going to be the same, Joe.
Has NIL and the transfer portal, has it leveled the playing field?
How did Illinois defeat Houston in the Elite 8?
Because before the NIL, Indiana had no chance of doing what they did in football. 16-0. So now it's made a lot of these programs. You see what Texas Tech was able to do. You see some of these other programs. Ocho, that were typically doormats. Yeah.
What does Rick Pitino say about the future of Blue Blood programs?
And now all of a sudden, they're playing in the college football playoffs. Now all of a sudden, the teams that normally were there, and he said the Blue Bloods as we know them, the Kansas, the Kentuckys, the North Carolinas, and all these teams, Nah, it ain't. I agree with you. I think the playing field is so even nowadays, fellas. You know what I mean? That the Blue Bloods are really getting kicked out. When you think about it, you know, it's not like it was back in the day. Everybody wanted to go to Kansas, Duke, or Kentucky. That's not it.
What were the highlights of Michigan's victory over Alabama?
With college basketball being a professional sport now, It's different. You know, you got a lot of these cats, they going with a bag, just like anything else. You know what I mean? Yes. Now, they ain't going to come out and tell us they going, but come on now. Come on now.
We know. We know.
Because think about it, guys. Before they was giving out them bags, the Bonds are going to North Carolina, Duke, Kansas, somebody like that. Acuff going to one of those Blue Bloods probably. Yeah.
Yeah.
But now, money is money. Hey, his money spent over here at Arkansas, just like that money spent at Duke, North Carolina or Kentucky.
It all spent the same. And you know, we coach say the same thing. You have coach coming out saying it's about basketball, that the Blue Blood program no longer run college basketball. Hell, didn't Nick Saban say the same thing about college football?
How did Arizona manage to defeat Purdue?
When the playing field is even. Now everybody, we can go and get whoever we want to.
Yeah.
Needs some boosters or needs a little cash, just a little change.
What factors led to Illinois' win against Iowa?
You know, that's Barry and Tyson. All you got to do is incentivize the better kids to come to your school now if you got enough money. And all of a sudden, you ain't got no control now.
And they like capitalism, but you see what they're trying to do to them college kids, because a lot of the kids, they're getting that capitalism. How they looking, Ochoa?
You know what's going on?
Hey. Now, all of a sudden, we need to put control on this. Yeah. On the portal, the portal. College coaches always have a portal open. Always. Yeah. Yeah. You see them coaches start leaving. When all of a sudden that NIL came to be and the money was going to be spread around, all of a sudden, you know what? I think the game has passed me by. You think? Now all of a sudden, you ain't the only one. Now ain't nobody care about no scat pack. Ain't nobody got no hell cats, no demons. Them guys say, hey, Texas, we got Ferrari and Lambo. Ohio State say, what you want? These other programs offer money too. So guess what?
How do the hosts predict the Final Four outcomes?
We see these coaches start to dip. Coach K, then you saw Roy follow him out the door. Yeah. You saw Coach Saban. He's like, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Don't do that. And I think Coach Saban is the greatest college coach ever. But we know what time it was. Now all of a sudden, let's get a hold on this. Let these kids, these kids, no, no, no, no.
What role does NIL play in college basketball dynamics?
Colleges robbed these kids for so long. Let them get about 15, 20 years of get back. Then y'all want to do something with it.
