CrimsonCast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

By far the top IU sports podcast in a crowded space. Perfect combination of emotion and rationality. Scott and Galen channel the thoughts, fears, joys, and hopes of the IU fanbase and are not afraid to criticize objectively. Great job guys!

I’ve always tried to find a podcast for IUFB and IUBB that looks at my favorite college sports teams more objectively and less fan boy bias and Galen is that guy. There is a bias that obviously we want the Hoosiers to win , but it’s never unreasonable. He always has the best takes about IUBB and IUFB and I always learn something when listening. While everyone in the world gets negative quickly, Galen and Scott keep very positive vibes, which we need more of as IU fans. Overall, just a great Iu sports podcast!

Dr. Clavio brings an intelligence and long view to IU FB and other IU sports that is a refreshing contrast to the landscape of IUFB pod-commentary. Galen’s experience with professional media and IU a media school academic rigor is manifested in cogent thought—optimism with a grounding in reality. His speaking voice is always easy to hear and understand — and since this is a podcast, that matters. (And he likes talking about tailgating and the food requirements thereof, and that’s okay by me.)

And this is not to say that CrimsonCast isn’t ALSO a must-listen during football season, but I focus more on the hoops, and I always enjoy the discussion, whether it’s the Alumni Lounge, or Galen and Scott kicking IU hoops puppies in the way that only they know how. :-) But seriously, you can get sunshine and rainbows on other shows … these guys tell it like it is (or at least, how they see it), and their candor, passion, and knowledge is appreciated.
