This article (link) says Brad Rutter is considered the favorite to replace Trbek

although it also reported that Rutter was the favorite to win the GOAT tournament, which turned out to a terribly wrong prediction. But it seems Rutter wants to be an actor in L.A., whereas both Jennings and Holzhauer have other endeavors they are pursuing, so Rutter might be the best fit.

The odds are with this ‘Jeopardy!’ G.O.A.T. to win tournament

Brad Rutter is slated to win the top spot at tonight's "Jeopardy!" mega tournament with the highest odds.

I don't think he'd want it. I think Holzhauer would be good, but different, but

Jeopardy will be die or dwindle into obscurity after Trebek. Like Simon Cowell to American Idol.

Well, it did exist and do pretty well before Alex Trebek —

Yeah, but Trebek is the lifeblood of that show. To be honest, it would never make it in this format...
