  • Teared up

    May have teared up when the first episode hit my feed at the beginning of the year. Going through this unbelievable season alongside Dylan and Eric has been the best of rides and I am undoubtedly a more knowledgeable basketball fan. Knowing the UCSD team better than several of their fans sitting near me in the round of 64 was a testament to how good Dylan and Eric are. Subscribe to this and UMHoops immediately.

  • The BEST

    Analysis doesn’t get much better than this. LOVE listening to Dylan and Shapiro get into the weeds of each and every little nook and cranny in a given matchup. The BEST analysis of any team in any sport. Incredibly lucky to be a Michigan basketball fan and have these guys to go to for breakdowns!

    Highly highly recommend!

  • Great b-ball pod.

    Terrific commentary by two smart guys. Analytics and narrative, you can’t ask for more.

    I’m concerned that Dylan has MSU/PTSD
