Jalen Rose Misses on Villanova

ESPN’s new talk show “Get Up” debuted on Monday and it didn’t take long before co-host Jalen Rose dismissed Villanova when asked their place among college basketball’s elite.

After the Wildcats won their second national championship in three years on Monday night, Rose shared the following tidbits.
