What's up, everybody? Welcome back to a very special episode, a never-before-done episode of Unfiltered Waters. I am sitting here, obviously not in the studio, obviously not even on the ground. I am sitting here on the seven-meter at Georgia Tech two days before NCAAs kicks off.

I have so many data points. I have so many anecdotes. I have so many predictions, but it's my first time doing it all alone.

But I'm actually really excited because not only is it so freaking cool to be sitting up here with the pool behind me, it's really, really neat to be able to talk about this year's NCAAs because there's so many unprecedented things. There's so many records that are gonna be broken, and so let's just dive right in.
