The Ringer’s Tate Frazier runs through some of the biggest stories of the college basketball offseason, including the NCAA tightening up on second-time transfer players, big names testing the NBA draft waters, and coach Jim Larrañaga’s comments on NIL evaluation tools (2:13). Then Tate is joined by VSiN’s Michael Lombardi to discuss the Eastern Conference seemingly opening up for the 76ers (25:45), before Lombardi explains why we are coming up on a “One QB” NFL draft, why the Texans should not take a QB with the no. 2 pick, how Lamar Jackson’s unclear future affects this draft, trade-up teams, and more (39:07). Then Tate ends the show with some shout-outs and closeouts (1:11:59).
