Artwork for Anything But Mid College Basketball Podcast

Latest Episodes

The NCAA Tournament is going to 76 teams, and Ian Sacks and Isaac Bourne have some strong opinions about it. (None of them positive.) Plus, a transfer portal update as the calendar flips to May.

The transfer portal is raging, and the NIT, WBIT and WNIT are in their final stages. Ian Sacks and Isaac Bourne discuss on this week's episode of Anything But Mid.

It's the second straight year mid-majors failed to make the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. Ian Sacks and Isaac Bourne look back at the first few rounds of the Big Dance and review how the mid-majors are still alive in the NIT.

We finally have a women's NCAA Tournament bracket. Ian Sacks looks at the field of 68 and the mid-major teams to keep an eye on in the Big Dance this year.

    I love hearing updates on so many of the 357 teams that are never talked about throughout college basketball. Always a funny listen!

  • Saint Mary’s fan that loves this podcast

    I have always been a fan of mid major teams. ODU, then Hawaii, and since moving to Alameda CA 20 years ago Saint Mary’s from Moraga California. This pod cast is a fun, witty, look at Mid Major teams and conferences. If you like basketball, consider going to your local mid major or lower games, and keep up to speed with the rest here, on Mid Major madness. Brett.

  • I took an accounting class with Frantz Massenet

    Apparently I reviewed you guys 2 years ago when it sounded like you were recording from a toaster oven. It’s much better now! Keep up the great work!

    Also, I know they don’t deserve it, but could you guys give my alma mater Drexel a shout out? They haven’t been good since my junior year in 2012, so understand why you don’t talk about them. But we’ll get back to the top one day! Love the pod, 5 stars.
