3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Kansas — the market puts it at 3%, with $10k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 27 Apr 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Kansas wins the 2026-27 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship. It resolves to No if any other team wins that title. Readers often mistake this question for a prediction about Tre White’s eligibility or a single game result, but it depends solely on the final national championship winner.
  • Jacque Vaughn — the market puts it at 4%, with $634 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 10 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Jacque Vaughn becomes the next permanent head coach of the Kansas men's college basketball team. It resolves to No if someone else takes that role. Readers often mistake a temporary or interim appointment for the permanent position required for resolution.
  • Kansas reach the CFP before 2030 — the market puts it at 17%, with $0 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 8 Jan 2030. The market resolves to Yes if the Kansas football team qualifies for the College Football Playoffs after this question is posted and before the 2030-31 college football season begins. The outcome depends solely on the football team's performance, not the basketball team or any coaching changes. Readers often mistake the linked basketball story for relevant information, but only football playoff qualification counts.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
