On today's show Torres wonders why Kentucky is ranked so low in Top 25's and looks at the outlook of Arkansas as well, then talks about the latest in the portal, previewing DJ Wagner's visit, Coleman Hawkins and more. Finally, he wraps on Brian Kelly's comments and an NIL-backed basketball tournament!
Why is Kentucky ranked so low in "Way Too Early Top 25's?" (2:00): Torres opens the show by asking about the disrespect for Kentucky in "Way Too Early Top 25's." Many national outlets don't have the Wildcats ranked, and Torres doesn't get it?! He also discusses where Arkansas should be ranked, as John Calipari has a loaded and talented 7-man roster so far.
More portal news and notes (29:00): From there Torres hits on some portal news and notes as the NBA Draft Combine nears. Could Illinois star Coleman Hawkins return to school, and why next week's combine will tell us what Jaxson Robinson's plans are. Plus thoughts on Chaz Lanier and some other big names still remaining.
Brian Kelly's NIL comments + the rest of the week in college sports (46:00): Finally, Torres wraps by explaining why he believes Brian Kelly's NIL comments are way overblown, and why an NIL-backed basketball tournament ultimately won't work!
