  • Levi is terrible

    Tried listening to this after 2 years, and it’s still trash. Levi obviously doesn’t know much about any sports yet he thinks he’s a savant.

  • Litecast is Trash

    I love all the content but the litecast. Would recommend shuffling out some of those contributors. Love DPNL and the Night Cap

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Offensively Offensive: Roster Preview and Creighton Exhibition
Q: What did you feel like went well for us? What did you feel like we didn't do well?
Tom points to Creighton's pace and perimeter shooting as a useful test for Iowa State's rotations, but says the Cyclones' rebounding against a less imposing frontcourt was disappointing.
Offensively Offensive: Roster Preview and Creighton Exhibition
Q: What did you think of the Bigs overall?
Nate says Dish Jackson looked particularly promising at the four, while Blake Buchanan had a difficult exhibition. The panel also sees Taj Manning as a useful addition who can provide frontcourt depth and rebounding.
Cyclone Therapy, Iowa State Falls To Arizona | Post-Postgame Show
Q: What is the one thing you want to see differently moving forward the last five games?
Levi wants the offense to establish a clear identity and show more urgency, with a deliberate plan rather than appearing to try plays without a consistent direction.
Cyclone Therapy, Iowa State Falls To Arizona | Post-Postgame Show
Q: If we don't play Rainer, are we sending a bad message to future potential transfers?
The hosts say players should expect competition and earn playing time through performance. A transfer is not guaranteed a starting role, and a team should be able to bench a player who is not playing well.
Talkin' BYU With Jake Hatch | CFAD Interrogates
Q: What are the three biggest keys for BYU against Iowa State according to Jake Hatch?
Keep clean football and avoid cheap turnovers, exploit multiple personnel groupings to confuse Iowa State's defense, and rely on a balanced offensive attack with an emphasis on the running game when possible while taking shots downfield to loosen Iowa State's coverage; also, win special teams and control the tempo to keep the game within BYU's preferred style.
