Kyle Macy | Kentucky Wildcats | National Champions | NBA, Coaching and More! Apr 15, 2022

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

In the University of Kentucky’s illustrious basketball history, Kyle Macy inherits a prominent place – and spawned a generation of boys named Kyle in Kentucky.
Indiana’s Mr. Basketball in 1975 while playing for his father Bob at Peru High, the 6-3 point guard was a three-year starter for the Wildcats after spending his freshman season at Purdue.
Macy helped the Wildcats capture the 1978 national title, breaking a 20-year drought that likely felt like a century-long drought to Big Blue Nation.
When Macy’s collegiate career closed in 1980, he had a resume to rival any Wildcat: three All-American nods, an SEC Player of the Year award, and two SEC titles in addition to the 1978 national title. He left UK as the program’s all-time leader in assists and 12th on the Cats’ all-time scoring list.
A first-round draft pick of the Phoenix Suns in 1979, Macy played seven seasons in the NBA.
He was inducted into the University of Kentucky Athletics Hall of Fame in 2005 and the Wildcats retired his #4 jersey in 1997.

Lucas Williamson | Loyola Ramblers | Final Four Run | The Loyola Project Documentary Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

We are joined today by someone many college basketball fans have gotten to know over recent years and that’s Loyola Chicago standout Lucas Willamson.
We’re going to talk with Lucas a bit about his career on the court for the Ramblers, where the Chicago native was a two-time Missouri Valley Conference honoree and the league’s two-time Defensive Player of the Year, but even more about a special project he was involved in off the court.
Williamson served as the narrator on “The Loyola Project,” a recently released documentary about the 1963 Loyola Ramblers, a team that broke racial barriers while also capturing the national title.
Williamson will talk with us about his involvement in that project, the process of putting it together, and what he learned about this transformative squad.

Mark Vershaw | Wisconsin Badgers | Creating a Tradition | Constant Underdogs Apr 01, 2022

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

In March 2000, the eighth-seeded Wisconsin Badgers rushed through the West Regional, defeating Arizona, LSU, and Purdue to claim the Badgers first Final Four appearance in more than 59 years.
Though the Badgers Cinderella run ended with Final Four loss in Indianapolis to Big Ten foe and eventual national champ Michigan State, that Wisconsin squad helped elevate the Badgers, long a middling Big Ten program, into a March Madness regular..
Wisconsin would make the Big Dance every year over the next 17 seasons, including two additional Final Four runs under Bo Ryan.
Today, we’re going to discuss that memorable Badgers run with the team’s leading scorer, 6-9 forward Mark Vershaw, and seek to understand how an 8-8 Big Ten team, one that never cracked the AP Top 25, one that didn’t feature a single all-conference selection – not even an honorable mention nod – defied the odds and captured a spot in the Final Four.

Jeff Fryer | Loyola Marymount | Cinderella Stories | Turning tragedy into resilience Mar 18, 2022

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

Today's episdoe is a Tales from the Bench

The 1989-1990 Loyola Marymount squad is one of the most memorable college basketball teams of its generation, a reality rooted in its run-and-gun style of play as well as the tragic on-court death of its star, Hank Gathers, that turned the Lions into America’s team in March 1990.
Today, Jeff Fryer, the third-leading scorer on that Lions team, a fearless shooter who jacked up an NCAA Tournament record 22 three-point attempts against Arkansas in 1989, joins the 19nine podcast to discuss his four-year career with the Lions, the unorthodox scheme concocted by Coach Paul Westhead, the emotions of Gathers’ death, and the team’s resilient run to the Elite Eight.

Ed Sherman | Press Row | Big Ten Historian | The Big Ten Set the Standard in College Sports Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

The 2022 Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament is upon us, as is the launch of 19nine’s Big Ten Tournament Collection.
So, it’s a perfect time to connect with journalist and author Ed Sherman, who authors penned the authoritative history on the conference titled, This is Big: How the Big Ten Set the Standard in College Sports.
The 5-pound book shares stories of the Big Ten dating back to the league’s founding in the late final years of the 19th century and chronicles its rise into perhaps the most influential conference in college sports.
Ed, of course, has long maintained a close eye on the Big Ten. Over a 27-year career with the Chicago Tribune, he served as the newspaper’s national college sports and Big Ten reporter, covering its universities as well as the league’s evolution.
We’re going to dig into the conference’s hoops history with Ed, discussing some of its principal figures and notable moments.
