So this is our first time recording since the U.S. and the world kind of began to mobilize in terms of protesting police brutality, which was spurred by the murder of George Floyd.

Kind of happened as we were doing our 24-hour marathon.

We emerged from that and just I turned, my roommate turned on the news and I was in this delirious state and it was kind of a rude awakening to see that and have to kind of confront that and figure out how we would react to that. Definitely don't suggest doing that on zero hours of sleep. But we are processing it now and we just thought it'd be important for a college basketball podcast, specifically one with three white guys behind the mic, to mention our support and voice our support for the movement for change.

There are some movements out there that are making progress, and we all donated to the cause.

Happy to say we did that matt

there's the coaches coalition for progress as well yeah i just think our general consensus

opinion is you know everyone's clamoring for a change and we're all for you know supporting those

opinions but you know put your money and your time where your mouth is folks folks. So plenty of good causes out there, ways to get involved.

The one we want to highlight specifically is Coaches Coalition for Progress,

started by Mr. Todd Golden, head coach at San Francisco, along with a few other assistants.

Former guest of this podcast.

Former guest of Three Man Week Podcast, correct.

And they are basically forming an organization that's geared toward helping kids within inner cities underprivileged,

you know, fostering community relationships and improving academic and athletic opportunities for the under-resourced youth as their official mission statements.

So all donations, fees, and membership fees will go directly to providing

non-new academic and athletic equipment and under-resourced community. So just things of that nature.

There's a billion out there, but that's what we want to highlight since it is so closely tied to our

college basketball world. Yeah, one other thing the coaches are doing. A lot of them are

vowing to give their players off on Election Day, November 3rd.

That's starting to be a real push in society so that players can go vote without having to worry about skipping practice.

Just little things like that.

That's where the change comes and we are happy to see it and happy to support it.
