  • Norlander off?

    On your 2/8 Podcast Norlander implied the Fears misbehavior is nothing as severe as that of Grayson Allen. But Allen only tripped 3 people. All in 2016 not over multiple years as Norlander implied. Media demanded Coach K penalize him. K did. Allen was suspended one game and his captaincy was stripped. Fears has already had 3 incidents in a shorter time period and yet no consequences. No media demand for it. Let’s be accurate and fair Norlander.

  • Honest & Entertaining

    This podcast toes the line of both entertaining and informative - and, they cover all conferences. This is fairly unique in college sport podcast. Both hosts - Parish & Norlander - can be both (honest & entertaining) at any given time. Yes, it’s cbs sports but just like anything in podcast land, it’s content and very cool.

    2026: Update.

    More years, more content, more fun. When they’re on, it’s the best. I think of GP on edibles and Norlander being scared of anything he says. For a podcast fun... more

  • Shills

    You guys have become shills to the major programs. It is unreal how you talk about the same teams. You just did a segment on the COY candidates and name all big schools. Didn’t even mention Sha Holloway even though you both said the seton hall program was basically finished.

  • Most boring season ever?

    There’s no doubt this is an incredible freshman class and many high quality teams at the top of the sport, and yet I find this to be one of the dullest seasons I can remember. All of that “parity” in the sport we talked about a few years ago is gone. There are no more upsets. The favorites always win and by huge margins. I used to be able to watch any game and be entertained. Now it’s just blowouts. How is this good for the sport?
