  • Awesome show!

    Really like how you combine the on court elements with the off court stuff such as recruiting.

    Could we get some Arizona State talk. What kind of impact the additions of Christopher and Bagley will have? What are some of the targets for the 21 and 22 classes?

    Thanks guys
