    UConn Repeats In Dominating Fahsion Over Purdue On National Title Recap Show 4 8 24

    They did it, again. Just as in 2023 the UConn Huskies came to the Final Four and proved, without a doubt, that they are the best program in college basketball with a 76-60 win over Purdue Monday night in Glendale, AZ. And, we're recapping it on College Basketball Coast to Coast!" Host T.J. Rives returns with his "Starting Five" of analysts and co-hosts: T.C. Martin, Tyler Jones, Ari Russell, Deshaun Tate and Matt Zemek. And, they go in depth on why the Huskies have been unbeatenable this March, just like last March. From big man Donovan Clingan 11 points, 5 rebounds to guard Tristen Newton, 20 points 7 assists,  UConn was the better team from beginning to end. And, even though big man Zach Edey had 37 points, no one else was really a factor for the Boilermakers. And, they guys talk the absolute heater that Dan Hurley is on as the coach at UConn, as well. It's all part of this final edition of "College Basketball Coast to Coast" for this season and make sure to be following and subscribing for more content on this feed later this fall as the new season will get underway!

    UConn And Purdue Both Impressively Win To Set Up National Title Matchup On Our Saturday Niight Recap 4 6 24

    New Venue but the same results for UConn, as they have rolled into a second straight championship game and are looking to repeat in the 2024 NCAA Men's Basketball Tourney. They'll play Purdue, who was equally impressive and are in the title game for only second time ever. And, we're ready to recap it all on the latest "College Basketball Coast to Coast" recap show and podcast. Host T.J. Rives is back from Glendale, AZ and ready to go over it all with colleagues Ari Russell, Matt Zemek, Deshaun Tate, Tyler Jones and T.C. Martin from State Farm Stadium. The guys talk first about Purdue 63-50 win over upstart N.C. State in game one Saturday night. Why was Zach Edey so effective, yet again in leading the Boilermakers to another win? Why couldn't the 'Pack get anything going and just how loud was it for Purdue's massive fan base in the stadium.  The second semi was another Connecticut decisive win, even though Alabama shot the ball well in the first half. How much credit does Huskies coach Danny Hurley deserve for being on the verge of having back to back champs? And, is Donovan Clingnan practically unstoppable down load, even with the pending Edey matchup? It's all discussed in the recap mode on "College Basketball to Coast" from Arizona and make sure to follow/subscrbie to us on Apple, Spreaker, Spotify, etc.!

Or, might the Crimson Tide in their first ever Final Four can spoil the party? The other game has two teams in the Boilermakers and Wolfpack that haven't been here in over 40 years. Is time for huge Zach Edey to lead Purdue to the title game or will the Wolfpack continue their improbable run that has seen them win nine post-season games.  T.J. also goes to analyst Mark Wise, who was a Purdue assistant in their last Final Four Run in 1980 and shares tremendous stories and insight about it all.
