Description

The Parlay Kid just missed on a Brandon Ingram player prop because he was taken out in a blow-out win and people are disputing Harry’s winning bets on Twitter (02:00). Then Cousin Sal and the guys discuss which quarterback the 49ers may take in the draft as the odds continue to change and Harry isn’t convinced Justin Fields will be any good in the NFL (06:30). The guys discuss Julius Randle’s climbing odds (-600) for Most Improved Player a bet they gave out months ago. Plus, it’s a showdown between MVP favorites Jokic (-380) and Steph (+1800), Nuggets/Warriors (+3) as the guys predict a huge game from Steph (22:30). Then Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart joins the show to discuss how he gets annoyed with people who weigh-in as “experts” who have never played football. Matt tells what it was like being passed on by the Titans for Vince Young despite the coaches wanting him and falling to the Arizona Cardinals despite never formally meeting with them. He talks about meeting with Al Davis and how he recently found out he nearly went #2 to the Saints. Matt talks about playing in the best college football game of all-time and also his experience in one of the greatest Super Bowls ever (29:05). Matt talks about his former Fox co-host Urban Meyer leaving to be the head coach in Jacksonville and how he was always dropping hints about leaving and which situation would be the best. Matt tells the guys why he thinks Urban will win in Jacksonville. Plus, that Pete Carroll’s end goal is to be a professor at USC (42:15). Matt breaks down who he thinks the 49ers will choose with the #3 pick and why it might be Justin Fields. Matt thinks it's unfair to compare Fields to past Ohio State quarterbacks because he’s much more talented (47:05). Then Matt tells Cousin Sal why he was rooting for UCLA in the NCAA tournament and how it had to do with gambling, why he doesn’t consider UCLA a real rivalry, hating Cal and Aaron Rodgers, and that USC/Notre Dame is the real rivalry (56:45). The guys give their Sharp Tank picks as Harry goes down under for a bet on Australian rugby (01:10:00). Finally, Harry confuses everyone by telling them which shot he got (01:18:15).
