The Wizards hold the number one pick, AJ Dybantsa is the consensus choice, but the draft is deeper than any in recent memory and the decision Washington faces is genuinely hard. Jay breaks down every name worth knowing before June. The NCAA tournament is expanding to 76 teams, which means a play-in round whether the NCAA wants to call it that or not. Dusty May told Front Office Sports his Michigan roster will cost more than ten million dollars this year. Mid-majors are watching their best players leave every offseason. And the question of whether college athletes will ever unionize or get a salary cap is no longer theoretical, it is a lobbying battle happening in Congress right now. Jay has been offered head coaching jobs and fielded interest from NBA teams over the years. He has also never given money to Duke's NIL fund. Both of those answers are more interesting than they sound, and he addresses both directly before the conversation is over.
