You're going to be. Hey there it's Gary Parish live from a makeup room just outside State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Welcome back to the ION College Basketball Podcast, where we sometimes discuss Campbell Fighting,

Dotto Birds, Leaky Black.

ION College Basketball Podcast is presented by Jersey

Mike's, Jersey Mike's a sub above. Matt Norlander is here with me. He's actually

inside the stadium. I'm outside the stadium, but we are both here in Arizona where the National
