Unsolicited Advice: Take Mark Sears To Win The College Basketball National Player of the Year

Listen, preseason college basketball shows are not for the weak of heart. I started doing the Mark Titus Show right around the NBA Finals in June, and since then, we've had to squeeze every ounce of juice out of the basketball world, ranging from the Olympics, to the NBA preseason, to Secret Scrimmage season in college basketball, and now we're finally here: NCAA Basketball Eve, Eve, Eve. That's right folks, the season finally tips off Monday....with a few great (and really late) matchups between Ohio State/Texas and Baylor/Gonzaga. Top teams such as Alabama, Kansas, UNC, Iowa State, Houston, and Duke will also be in action, giving us plenty to talk about 2x a week moving forward. HOWEVER, in this final preseason show, it appears Titus has caught Duke Fever. The man is literally a Cameron Crazy at this point. And come February, when Duke should be much better than they currently are due to breaking in 3 big time freshman, I wouldn't be surprised to see him in a blue wig on the sidelines of a home game, screaming at the inbounder.

Anyways, as much as he likes Duke as a team, Titus did give out a season long future bet to the listeners (that I promptly went to DraftKings Sportsbook and placed). He says you can book MARK SEARS, ALABAMA as your National Player of the Year (+800).

The guy makes a compelling argument, and with the pace Alabama is going to play at this year, I can't see a world where a player on a contender puts up better stats than Sears. The hype train surrounding Cooper Flagg is high, but like we discuss, he will do things on defense to impact that game....where all of Sears impact will be seen statistically. 

Other topics discussed on the newest episode of the Mark Titus Show:

- Arkansas beat #1 Kansas in a charity exhibition (without 2 key Jayhawks playing). How does this talented Arkansas team compare to Cal's teams at Kentucky? And will Cal be the downfall of them once again?

- Duke won by 60 against Arizona State. Something or nothing?

- Which conference will the National Champion come from?

- Final 4 Predictions

- I genuinely feel bad for Bronny James after the Cavs fans treated him like a High School Manager scoring a basket

- The Cleveland Cavs are an NBA best 5-0

Check out the final preseason episode of the Mark Titus Show now! We'll be back Tuesday morning after the first night of games.
