| 0:00.0 | Hey there, it's Gary Parrish. Welcome back to the CBS Sports Ion College Basketball |
| 0:09.6 | podcast where we sometimes discuss camel fighting dodo birds in Leaky Black, |
| 0:14.7 | Matt Norlander is here with me. If you're watching on YouTube, smash the like button |
| 0:18.1 | like your brain and babies you have consent. If you haven't yet subscribed to the CBS Sports |
| 0:22.5 | College Basketball YouTube channel, also do that while you're here. Let's get into it. |
| 0:27.5 | You might have noticed that our annual Candid Coaches series is now underway. We got started |

| 1:47.1 | episode for a change, by the way. Good to see you there. We will get to a male bag |
| 1:51.8 | that was promised and trust me. It's coming, but we're going to get to the newsy stuff first |
