Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the early show. Brought you by the GM, Make it legendary. A lot of golf on the show, a little bit of NBA, a little bit of college basketball, and of course, all your picks in the chat. Good morning, Jeff Stenberg, fantasy life, big cheesy, Harry Hunter in the chat, tailored winnings, Natty Sports. Let's see how we did on the recap screen as you're hitting

maybe we'll go five and two today as well buckets goes one for two mike hits his pick

martin green two for two and the sports line pick oh my gosh i hope all of you saw that

arkansas game yesterday it looked like we might lose our cover in double overtime. But Chip Patterson, two for two this week. Thanks to his sports line picks. Make sure you're a member of sportsline. Sportsline.com slash join. Let's join the stars of the show. Let's bring in Larry Hartstein, Mike McClure, Taft Gant. Oh, this must be a big golf day

Taft. How you doing today, buddy? I'm doing great, Sia. Thank you for letting me join the Thursday

early edge show, usually on Wednesdays in the past, but it just means we're going to start

out strong with picks that are today and that will carry us

forth on the rest of the week. I'm pumped for this Genesis Invitational. I bet you are as well.

Yeah, we got a lot of picks today for the Genesis Invitational. Mike McCloy, you're dabbling in

a round one score like you normally do, correct? Yes, round one scores on Thursdays for us. A little college basketball as well, but yeah, fired up for this tournament. This one should be very fun to watch. Really, really excited about this one. And Larry, we've got the NBA back today. So are you dabbling in the NBA college basketball? What do you have for us? A little of both. See, I mean, I don't know what to react to first.

We had some of the greatest Olympic hockey you'll ever see with the overtime wins,

setting up a monster semifinals tomorrow, although the women play today and the U.S. is laying 500 or more in that,

which should be kind of a, you know, a ceremonial win there.

But how about Dan Hurley losing at home as a 15 and a half point favorite?

And you just love to see those press conferences where he says,

we have bad defenders who are getting worse as the season goes along.

Well, who does that, you know, who gets the blame for that?

You're the coach. I just love when coaches trash their players when things go wrong.

Mike, you know, we talk about college basketball futures a lot, especially on the network shows where

I know I'm hosting one at 12 o'clock on Friday. And in the futures discussion, the Yukon Huskies never really have come up in terms of

like a team with, you know, middling odds that like could scare a championship.
