Hello and welcome to another episode of the three-man weed college basketball podcast.

0:16.0

It's me, Kai, your host for today, joined by Jim and Matthew Cox, who is vacant from the screen

0:23.1

currently, but fear not.

0:24.5

He will be back soon, YouTube viewers.

0:28.1

We are talking mid-majors on today's podcast.

0:31.1

It is our annual mid-major extravaganza.

0:34.0

We love it.

0:34.7

We do it every single year.

0:36.3

We are diving deep.

0:37.4

Well, I'll say shallow.

0:39.3

On the 22 other leagues, we're calling them, the A-10, the AAC, the WCC, all get their own episode this year, along with the Mountain West.

0:48.9

And the Power 5 get their own episode per usual.

0:51.9

So this, Jim, is the Everybody Else episode.

0:56.3

to all of them.

1:08.5

And if you're a typical ACC listener or Big Ten listener, pick a league that you want to follow this year, something that sounds fun. I always recommend the Socon and dive in. It's a great option to have on ESPN Plus or if you want to go a late night team or late night league, your Big Wes, et cetera. I think that's a good little outlet to have

1:29.9

as a college basketball fan. It can be a gateway drug, Kai, to even more mid-major basketball.

1:34.8

My one regret of being an early to bed kind of guy is I don't watch a lot of Big West during the

1:41.2

season. And it hurts me because there's a lot of great teams out there and I want to watch more Big West. And I can't. I'm a little baby boy and I have to go to bed. That's just how it is. I think Kai and I think the listener should agree with me and pressure Kai to do this. He should have a Big West game like recorded or the ESPN Plus rewatch pulled up and watch it when you're when you're getting

2:00.9

big in the wait room in the morning.
