Flashback Friday on the “greatest NCAAs ever” with Golf Channel’s Brentley Romine
<p>This is a slightly different Friday show, as an entire Precision Pro FBF segment turns into an episode. Golf Channel’s Brentley Romine recently researched and <a href="https://www.golfchannel.com/news/rebirth-riv-oral-history-2012-ncaa-golf-championship-part-i"><u>published an oral history on the 2012 NCAA men’s championships</u></a> at Riviera, featuring a nail-biter between two juggernauts in Alabama and Texas and three-dozen players that would go pro, including headliners Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Brooks Koepka, Daniel Berger, Thomas Pieters, Max Homa, and many more. Brentley takes us through the timeline and sets up the drama for this legendary championship, much of which was not caught on video. Frugal Fritelli also plays a prominent role and stirs things up for his Texas team. The episode ends with some thoughts about the Texas program and whether it underachieves similar to the football team, and then how the NCAAs have risen in stature in recent years.</p>
