    Episode 116 - Kansas blows it against Houston, UNC-Duke, and what message does Rick Pitino have for Big Blue Nation?
    Jan 31 2025
    We are on the eve of February 1st which means we are getting closer to March! Looking back at last weekend to start the show with the Kansas Jayhawks having an ALL-TIME choke job in Allen Fieldhouse in a double OT loss to Houston. UNC and Duke add another chapter their historic rivalry and we breakdown that game on Saturday night. At about 12:25, we hear from our guy Rick Pitino with his message to Big Blue Nation with John Calipari making his return to Rupp. How do we feel the Kentucky fans should welcome him back? Then at the 24:10 mark, Rhymetime hit the road to check out the Cintas Center and the electric Xavier and UConn game. He takes us into the Cintas Center with a review on the arena and what the atmosphere was like. And then to finish the show, the Ohio State basketball team is ROLLIN' and they have a battle with Illinois on Sunday. We talk about what areas they have been exceling at during this win streak, and how they can go into Champaign and pick up another road win.

    Jan 23 2025
    It's nearing the end of January in College Basketball and things are really heating up. Timmy Hall and Evil Bald Colin get you caught up from games from over the weekend and earlier this week. Alabama and Kentucky was awesome! At about the 10:40 mark the guys get into the situation that happened at TCU with Hunter Dickinson and other TCU players holding onto the ball for a long period of time. Bill Self wasn't a huge fan of that act from his big man. Dan Hurley is at it again, this time declaring himself as the best coach in the sport and the guys discuss if he makes a good case or not. Are replay reviews becoming a problem in the sport? The guys break that down at 24:10 and throw out some ideas to make late-game reviews better. Also, the Ohio State basketball team picked up a MASSIVE win in Mackey Arena knocking off Purdue. What was working for the Buckeyes, and can they go on a run here off this big win? And finally, at the 35-minute mark Rhymetime joins the pod to give an update on North Carolina after dropping two games in a row and what their issues are, along with a look ahead at the huge weekend slate coming up.

    Dec 5 2024
    The College Basketball season is in full throttle. Teams are settling in and we're getting a good idea of what teams can win this thing in April. We start out recapping the first month of the season. Feast Week was nothing short of amazing and delivered some incredible moments in the early part of the season. At the 12:00 minute mark we get into breaking down the defending back-to-back National Champs. Dan Hurley had a "relaxing" week while UConn was taking part in the Maui Invitational. Then at 20:08, the Buckeye Hoops team hit the road for some conference play at Maryland and we talk about how disastrous of an opener to conference play it was. We talk about what areas need corrected and the brutal schedule they have coming up. And at 32:35, we bring on a new member to the team to breakdown the fallout of UNC amidst their losing streak. We cover how the Tar Heels can turn things around before it gets too bad in Chapel Hill. Enjoy the pod and remember this is ONLY December!

  • Episode 110 - UConn's place in basketball history, Hurley and You Fine Listeners

    Episode 110 - UConn's place in basketball history, Hurley and You Fine Listeners
    Apr 10 2024
    The season is over and UConn was dominant. There's a ton of fun conversations to have about what this mean's for UConn's status as a blue blood. I'm confused at how that is even in question. But we also start out by giving our genuine thanks to all of you fine listers for supporting this pet project of ours. We cover the game as professionals and are true fans at heart. It's cool to be both of those things at the same time. Things to watch after we discuss this UConn team, at the 16:36 mark we talk about Dan Hurley as a coach...his coaching chops and his personality. And at 21:44 we get into the final discussion of the season and what we're watching for in the coming months. Once again, thank you so much following this season. Work hard this offseason folks, it'll pay off!

    Apr 5 2024
    The Road to the Final Four ends here. So who do we got? Is it the dominant teams like UConn and Purdue destined to meet on Monday night? Or can Alabama or NC State knock one of these juggernauts off their perch? We talk a lot of UConn vs Bama in segment 1 and at the 11:15 mark we get more into Purdue vs NC State and Evil Bald Colin will relentlessly go after Zach Edey again. At 23:40 we turn the discussion to the coaching carousel and the wild week of roster construction (and deconstruction) for Ohio State Hoops. Then at 33:20 we dive back into the Final Four and run through our much awaited picks! It's a great weekend to be a college hoops fan. So make sure your feet are set, and enjoy it!

    Episode 108 - Football Schools are taking down Blue Bloods!
    Mar 29 2024
    Can you believe this? In the first half of Sweet 16 games alone we saw Clemson knock off Arizona, and Alabama take down 1 seed North Carolina. Crazy. First segment we almost have a National Championship ceremony for UConn. Are we wrong? We'll still make them play it out. But my goodness they dusted SDSU. At the 10:48 mark we get into the Tar Heels' game. And Cormac Ryan kind of told us not to be critical of RJ Davis. But we might do it anyway. At the 21:58 mark we talk about how we didn't see this coming at all from Clemson, and wonder how Brad Brownell lasted at Clemson as long as he did. And at 31:48 we get the final breakdown of the Ohio State season as Jake Diebler heads into a crucial first offseason. Enjoy the pod everyone. Stay in front of your man!!!
