They bring in Derrick Young and his audio is so low that you have to increase the volume a few decimals but when the loud mouth starts saying in between it blasts the audio so high that it is impossible to keep listening.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

6/9/26 - Hour 2: Texas Tech reporter Ryan Hyatt

6/9/26 - Hour 1: Interview with former Nebraska RB Correll Buckhalter Sr
Q: What advice would you give to young athletes navigating recruitment in today's landscape?
Buckhalter stresses hard work from a young age, building a strong foundation, choosing a program that emphasizes development and a pro-style system, and staying true to core values like family and faith as guiding principles throughout the process.
6/9/26 - Hour 1: Interview with former Nebraska RB Correll Buckhalter Sr
Q: Correll, what memories stand out from that 1998 game in Manhattan against K-State that you still think about today?
Buckhalter highlights the physical, well-coached nature of K-State, the leadership of Coach Snyder, and the overall competitive environment that made those games memorable, including how it felt to be on the field against a historically tough Wildcats squad.
6/10/26 - Hour 2: K-State men's basketball coach Casey Alexander
Q: What was it like to bring back a player like Andre Kostich, and how did those conversations unfold?
There were lengthy, collaborative conversations among several staff members; they didn't rush the process and valued Kostich's comfort and fit within the new system, leading to a decision that benefited both him and the program.
6/10/26 - Hour 2: K-State men's basketball coach Casey Alexander
Q: Could you remind the listeners what identity you want for K-State basketball and how it relates to Belmont's identity?
Alexander says the identity will be similar in principles—play style, culture, and roster philosophy—but tailored to compete in the Big 12, maintaining a strong, cohesive team that takes pride in the jersey and community.
