Biggest college hoops stories so far, UNC legend Roy Williams joins + winners of the weekend

Welcome to College BASKETBALL Power Hour! Just in time for the best part of the college basketball season, we’ve given the Power Hour a hoops makeover to bring you the top stories in men’s and women’s college basketball.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Ice Young recap the biggest storylines of the 2024-25 season so far to catch up our football listeners on what they might have missed. They chat about the epic rise of the SEC, whose basketball teams are dominating in a way we’ve never seen before, and the changes that have made it all possible. Keep your eyes on Cooper Flagg, the superstar freshman from Duke, and on what the UConn men’s team is up to after their back-to-back national title wins.

The trio share their biggest winners from last weekend including the Auburn men beating Alabama on the road, the UConn women dominating South Carolina on their home court, Vanderbilt freshman Mikayla Blakes dropping 55 points in a single game and more. The Power Hour crew also shares which matchups they’re most excited for this upcoming weekend.

Jason Fitz is joined by former UNC coach Roy Williams to talk about the current state of college hoops, Dan Hurley’s antics and to share highlights from his partnership with Verizon to pay off the debt of several North Carolina Hurricane Helene survivors.
