Arkansas Booster, Ocho Joe. John Tyson was asked why he can't do for the Razorbacks what Texas Tech Booster, Cody Campbell did for the Raiders. Well, he's got oil, I've got chickens.

I got to be honest with you.

Shannon Sharpe (2:32)
Joe, this one's for you. Carl Anthony Towns thank the Knicks. You reward him with an extension after last season. No ish, Sherlock. I just won a championship. You think it'd be pretty easy unless you guys have something else to prove. I don't look at, it don't look good, Kat said today, getting a new contract in place before the start of the regular season. The Knicks' latest offer has Carl Anthony Towns four years, 200 million, but he's eligible for a four year, 276
He's due 57 this year and a $61.1 billion player option next season.
Chad Johnson (3:08)
Well, listen, James Dolan, I get it. You want to start your negotiations low?
Just to get you a little cushion so you can go a little higher. But if I'm Kat, Unc, Ochocinco, ain't no way in here. Jaylen Duran just signed for 200 million, man.
Gilbert Arenas (3:25)
Exactly.
Chad Johnson (3:26)
Come on, man, I'm not signing on them 200 Y'all gonna, look, I ain't gotta break the bank at 276, but meet me at 240, 250 You know what I'm saying?
Shannon Sharpe (3:34)
Yeah, I give you, I ain't, but see the problem was is that you saw what Brunson did.
Gilbert Arenas (3:39)
So Brunson gave them all. They ain't got nothing to do with me. I agree. Yeah, they ain't got nothing to do with me.
