Rippy Rights with Brian Scott.

Transcript can be obtained by drinking a fifth of bourbon, ramming your head through some drywall, and then writing down every thought you have.

All right. We now welcome on Rippy Wright's basketball correspondent, former Andy Kennedy Staffer, author of the most famous assist in the history of the world. Bracken, Ray,

what's up, my man? How are you? I'm doing well. How about yourself? Pretty good.

This is the time of year where I'm starting to get into college basketball, watch some Feast Week,
