Show Notes

Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander provide one of their strongest episodes of the offseason with long discussions on why coaches want more mid-majors, and transparency, and consistency, with the NCAA Tournament selection committee (1:00). From there, they lay out the surprising results from their Candid Coaches poll regarding players being able to profit off their name, image and likeness (27:30) and lay out an enticing, if not controversial, environment that would come to college basketball when such things would be allowed. The podcast closes with thoughts on Michigan State (46:30) being the overwhelming pick by coaches as the best team in the sport for 2019-20.
