The coaching carousel is almost done (looking at you, Maryland Eastern Shore), so we decided to give grades for all 66 coaches hired so far, from the big time brands like Kentucky and Ohio State, down to the low major schools such as UT Martin and New Orleans, on an A+ to F scale. We also went in depth on the hires, so if you haven't been paying attention this offseason, this is the place to catch up!
2024 is near, and with the start of the new year marks the start of conference play! With all we've gathered in the first few months of the season, Austin and Kyle look at college basketball with a wide view and predict what conference standings are going to look like. Also covered in this episode are some main storylines in college basketball, including Terrence Shannon Jr's indefinite suspension and the new transfer rules.
In our latest podcast episode. we touch on all of the major tournaments to happen during the best regular season week, Feast Week, in addition to covering the recent ACC-SEC Challenge games. Purdue won the Maui Invitational, Villanova won the Battle 4 Atlantis, FAU won the ESPN Events Invitational, and many more notable MTEs took place that we touched on. We also looked ahead to the games this week, and gave our predictions.
College basketball is back and so are we with our regularly scheduled podcasting! It was an eventful week one, and even with a underwhelming opening night, there was still lots of excitement, headlined by James Madison's win over Michigan State. We also made a list of who's stock has gone up and down in week one, and lastly predicting the games the next week.
In our final conference preview of the preseason, we move to the high major level with the ACC! The conference was disappointing last year, but Miami did make the final four. This year, Duke is the team to watch, being a consensus top 5 team. Miami still has some key players back, and North Carolina could make it back into contending after such a disappointing season. Also, Clemson and Virginia field solid teams, and have favorable chances to make the tournament. Syracuse, NC State, Wake Forest, Virginia Tech and Pitt have some pieces, and have a chance for the tournament. As always, we look at every team in the conference in depth, and where we have them ranked, and select our all-conference teams. Then, we give our picks for top transfers, breakout players, and all-freshmen team in the conference.
