In the midst of layoffs at the network, ESPN still sent Brian Windhorst to France for a 70 second interview with Victor Wembanyama May 18, 2023

Show notes

-Talk about a long trip for a short interview—as ESPN continues to cut payroll, they still had Windhorst interview the likely No. 1 pick overall in June’s draft when the San Antonio Spurs won the draft lottery -The best part is it was about 2:30am when he had the 70-second interview, and likely flew back soon after that. Why not just do it on Zoom? Was it that important to be there? Show sponsored by GANA TRUCKING/MIDWEST BANK

The rest of the Top 25 coach list is out, and it begs some questions to be answered regarding some names on the list May 18, 2023

Show notes

-Yesterday, Bill asked where we thought Ryan Day would be at, and Jake and Sip both said probably within the top 5-7. Well, he’s at No. 8 on the list. Is that still too for him? How do we know? -Wisconsin’s Luke Fickell shows up at No. 9 in the rankings, which probably upsets Husker fans who wanted him over Matt Rhule, who comes in at No. 27. Is there any chance it doesn’t work for Fickell in Madison? -Also, Chris Klieman is at No. 12, and Bret Bielema checks in at No. 21…just behind JIMBA -Miami took down Boston on the road in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals Show sponsored by GANA TRUCKING/MIDWEST BANK
