00:00DRS, of course, there is the team aspect of winning a national championship.

00:03Then there is the Final Four's most outstanding player.

00:07A reminder, what you have done so far in the big dance,

00:10outside of getting your team to this stage, does not really carry weight.

00:14It is your two performances in a Final Four matchup and

00:17a national championship contest.

00:19No surprise that Cooper Flagg is the favorite to win the MLB award at a plus

00:23105 price for Florida, Walter Clayton at a four to one number.

00:28That price individually only $0.90 behind the Gators number to win

00:32a national championship.

00:34So DRS, as you look at the MLB odds,

00:36is there a spot where you find value with the individual over the team?

00:42I'll tell you where I find no value, it's Cooper Flagg.

00:44Again, Duke is a minus 115, so well, Donny, it's plus 105.

00:47Understand what Ben just told us here.

00:49This isn't a culmination award for the entire season.

00:51Like yes, if Duke wins, Cooper Flagg's the best player, he's the MLB.

00:54This is two games here,

00:56which means you're supposed to be objective as a person voting on this.

00:59Let's just say the Final Four goes, all right,

01:01Con Canippal edges out in the Houston game, Cooper Flagg by five points.

01:05Let's just say points, rebounds, and assists, he's plus one better.

01:08And then the final comes up, and Flagg is tremendous again, but

01:11Con Canippal gets him slightly again.

01:13We understand that Cooper Flagg is supposed to win that, but

01:16you also understand, well, who actually was the best player at the best time?

01:20Or is it Proctor dropping six triples against Houston in an unbelievable

01:23performance, then knocks down four more in the championship game, and

01:26Flagg just has two good games back to back, cuz he didn't really have to use him and

01:29be all that offensively and defensively dominant.

01:32There's no way I'm taking Flagg at that price point.

01:34Even if you tell me, Donny, Duke's winning it, and Flagg will win it.

01:37A plus 105, why would you do that to yourself?

01:40Because again, it's two games here.

01:42Everybody basically has a clean slate.

01:43We're not saying, look, man, did you see Flagg all the way through?

01:46He's unbelievable.

01:47That doesn't matter, even though some people will still vote,

01:50as if that does matter, which is the issue here.

01:52But for me, Ben, when you're asking for value,

01:54I'm telling you where there's no value in Cooper Flagg for me.
