Summary
We promised you a few mailbags this offseason, so that's exactly what you're gonna get! The guys take a few detours, but here's the bulk of what today's 90-minute show consists of.
1. What team outside GP's preseason Top 25 could realistically win the title in 2025?
2. Would you pick a College World Series-style bracket over tournament expansion?
3. Will football/expansion ever lead to a big-time basketball-first school going independent?
4. Why does Parrish have Duke ranked lower than most heading into November?
5. How do we feel about the idea that conferences could change their names because of corporate sponsorship?
6. Who is the most famous Norlander? The best-known Parrish?
7. Who wins a street fight: 50-year-old Bobby Knight or Dan Hurley now?
8. Why is there a sushi roll named after Gary Parrish?
9. Shouldn't other teams be trying to roster-build the way Matt Painter has been for years at Purdue?
10. Trivia Time! Which states produce the most Division I men's college basketball players?
11. Who lasts longer: Norlander living in Mississippi or Parrish living in Connecticut?
12. What music are GP and Norlander listening to this summer?
13. Should Parrish and Norlander do a commentary/watchalong of the 2010 Devan Downey game?
