  • UPDATE & BRING BACK

    Same with Al’s inside sports, they just suddenly stopped updating. And when they did, they started splicing the Friday show to remove the music game. What a sad, sad day - used to listen to the show replay(s) of this and Al’s religiously

Q: Do you think the Thunder will keep their core players under the new salary-cap rules?
The speakers express doubt about keeping all core players like Case and Wallace under the new cap constraints, suggesting teams may have to make tough choices or trades to stay under the apron while remaining competitive.
Berry Tramel for Jim, the best decade of college football, Paul George for Jalen Brown and some picks, Dean's Thunder expectations and more.
Q: What was the best decade of college football?
Berry and Al discuss multiple eras, highlighting the 70s for fan memories, the 80s for parity and media coverage, and the 2000s for offensive evolution, ultimately acknowledging that no single decade is definitive due to differing criteria.
Gideon Hamilton with Al, NBA team plans for future, NBA Draft tomorrow, OU Baseball plays for a National Championship, Joe Mussatto for Berry Tramel and more.
Q: What do you think happens with the Thunder at the draft tomorrow?
The prevailing view is that they will target a high-impact young player, potentially using two first-round picks and possibly moving up to land a top target, while also weighing the option to consolidate their existing assets.
Jim takes calls and breaks down the Thunder's Game 1 loss to the Spurs with Berry and Dean!
Q: What went wrong for OKC defensively down the stretch against Wimbenyama?
The panel noted that OKC didn't consistently pressure Wimbenyama or attack aggressively enough, often allowing him to operate with space; they also discussed that the Thunder needed to mix up its defensive looks and go at Wimbenyama more, even if it risked fouls, to wear him down and disrupt his rhythm.
