Theater In College Hoops Ep. 120- Interview With Former Zag & Trojan, Byron Wesley

Really terrific stuff today as we were fortunate enough to interview former player, Byron Wesley. He tells us about playing for his dad, some wild Kevin O'Neill stories at USC, then going to polar opposite Andy Enfield and finally ending up at Gonzaga with Mark Few. He tells us about the losing seasons but also the great winning season he had at his one year in Spokane. Of course he lets us know what some of the toughest venues to play in were and conversely... the lamest. He ends it with a special shout out to a former guest as well! Then we round out the program with some thoughts on Penny, Cuonzo & Turgeon while also discussing Providence's great play along with their hyena fanbase. Last but not least, we give you some winners in Please Sir, I Want Some More.

Theater In College Hoops (Ep. 119)- Pitino, Dayton, Feast Week and Iowa Schools

Packed show today as The Shark is back with us fresh off of a Heinicke performance. Never seen a man so happy slowly but surely pivot into anger but we worked through it.

Then we cover the huge shocker of the week- Dayton over Kansas. How the hell did the Flyers pull that off? We also recap the Duke win over Gonzaga and break down how there's been a culture shift in Durham. Then we recap Feast Week winners and put some focus on the state of Iowa and their successful teams thus far. Lastly we bring back our old friend, Please Sir I Want Some More.

Theater In College Hoops (Ep. 117)- Recap Of Last Week & Loyola Chicago On The Move

Big week in the college hoops world as Coach K's grandson and stud, Paolo Banchero get into a bit of legal trouble. What exactly is aiding and abetting DWI? We discuss what's next for the program and Paolo specifically. Then we recap that orgasmic Villanova/UCLA game. Is it me or does UCLA just play marvelous matches when pitted against top tier teams (nice alliteration). We also discuss Texas and if we're buying them or not and how exactly did Oregon get dismantled? There's one answer and he goes by Barcello. We also discuss the Loyola Chicago move to the A10. This is good, right? We discuss some of the backlash. Then we close it out with hugs.

Theater In College Hoops (Ep. 116)- Champions Classic & Bad Losses

I believe it was Phil from the Hangover who said "We are back, baby!" The new season is finally here so we break down the Champions Classic first and foremost. Coach K's farewell tour is already tiresome, Paolo Banchero isn't the only stud on Duke and Kansas is fielding a team filled with AARP members... but they're lethal. We also discuss some of the worst losses we saw on day 1. Georgia Tech, UVA, Pitt, Washington, Nebraska and Cal should all be ashamed of themselves. Houston, Wichita State, Ohio State & Colorado not off the hook either as they all had pretty poor debuts despite winning. Then we round it out with You're Old As Fuck and finally some hugs. It's been a while since we've given out some hugs. Gear up for the season, folks. We got a long road to NOLA.

We run through the ACC, Big 10, Big 12, SEC, Big East & PAC 12. Spoiler alert: Shark was kinda chalky so that was a disappointment. Then we discuss Bob Huggins outrageous comments on breaking away to form a super team tournament and we also introduce a new segment! Then we end it with an oldie but goodie: Where Am I? Now go out and enjoy Halloween. Make sure to let the kids grab as much candy as they want, don't be a stickler.
