Dennis Dodd joins host Doug Matthews to discuss the evolving landscape of collegiate basketball under the new revenue-sharing and NIL models, noting that while football commands the majority of the projected $20 million payouts, basketball programs must increasingly rely on third-party collectives and apparel deals to attract top talent like BYU’s AJ Dybantsa. The conversation highlights the current dominance of the Big 12 and Big Ten conferences and notes surprising success stories, such as Nebraska’s resurgence and the competitive parity seen in Big East matchups like UConn versus St. John’s. Transitioning to football, Dodd emphasizes a "survival of the fittest" mentality regarding conference realignment, reporting that North Dakota State is eyeing a move to the Mountain West to secure its future in the elite tier of the sport.
