Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 43 ratings
  • Great Tech Content, Audio Refinement Needed

    Love the content you all are putting out! The only thing that makes it difficult to listen is the volume dynamic between everyone. One person is very low in volume while others are loud, causing me to have to continually update the volume on my device between hosts. This is the only reason for 4 out of 5 stars. Other than that, the content and insight on all things Tech Athletics is on point. Keep it up and spread the good word!

  • Great cast, inconsistent sound quality. One of the presenters is Chris clear and audible. The other presenter is low and muted and difficult to hear. Great content. Great information about the awesome institute, sound quality could be improved significantly

Talking Points

Q: In terms of your gut reaction taken where the season is at right now, give us any sense of confidence level about Tech beating Pitt.
