What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

You guys are such a pleasure to listen to! You seem to have so much fun talking college ball, making predictions, and analyzing outcomes, but always keeping it entertaining with the amusing sidetrack about driving a boat or the number of churches in Mississippi (not to mention camel fighting and dodo birds). Please keep doing this as long as you enjoy it. We’re going to need this to distract us over the next four years of U.S. government incompetence!

iluvquality · Nov 2024

Highly entertaining, spot on analysis without the screaming and drama. Fact based and well thought out. Awesomely entertaining

nnysnows · Apr 2024

Terrific balance of humor and serious basketball throughout the season, from the blue bloods to the smaller schools. By Selection Sunday you have a good sense of who most teams are, which makes the tournament a more enjoyable watch. If I had one constructive suggestion when discussing games, it’s to dive a little deeper into matchups and the “eye test” over KenPom and Quad 1 wins and predictive metrics. But I love what you guys do, thanks!

RRPBobby · Apr 2024

It’s an entertaining, fun podcast, but when either Parrish or Norlander aren’t on the pod and one of the other two CBS guys fill in, it just isn’t as good, because the other two guys don’t bring any personality to the show. Neither Kyle Boone nor David Cobb are broadcasters. They’re sportswriters. That said, the 9/18/23 pod about Kansas and Arterio Morris was good because Parrish kept the thing rolling with his humorous banter.

alienaliensfan · Apr 2024

I feel they talk about the same teams all the time. Their summer shoot around seems to be the same teams every year. It’s a good podcast but wish they talked more about other teams. I’m a seton hall fan and they never talked about Kadary Richmond. He goes to St John’s and now everyone is talking about him.
