Summary
Trae Young's nine-shot performance in a win on Tuesday night vs. Kansas has Parrish and Norlander wondering if something is set to change in a big way for the Oklahoma Sooners. They also touch on the quiet senior season of Grayson Allen so far, look at Calipari's comments that were directed at Duke, and react to the breaking news that Villanova's Phil Booth is out indefinitely with a hand issue. The pod wraps with a behind-the-story look at Norlander's extensive feature on Project 44, which culminated with a young boy's life being saved by former Butler player Chase Stigall.

| 0:50.9 | He finished with 26 points, nine assists, four rebounds and five turnovers. |
| 0:56.4 | And so it was a good performance and a win over Kansas. |
| 0:59.4 | I sort of tweeted this last night is a win over Kansas, not here to nitpick it, but there |

| 1:26.0 | makers only taking nine shots in a game, taking zero three pointers in the first half. |
