Customer Reviews
Zags protecting the Galactic Republic
Happy May the 4th. Should the Zags receive an honorary NCAA championship trophy for helping stop the droid attack on the Wookiees? For reference, Axel Dench a forward from our 1999 Elite 8 team, played as wookie chieftain Merumeru who led the defense of Kashyyyk. Thank you and keep up the great work!
The best
Highly entertaining, spot on analysis without the screaming and drama. Fact based and well thought out.
Awesomely entertaining
So much fun
Terrific balance of humor and serious basketball throughout the season, from the blue bloods to the smaller schools. By Selection Sunday you have a good sense of who most teams are, which makes the tournament a more enjoyable watch. If I had one constructive suggestion when discussing games, it’s to dive a little deeper into matchups and the “eye test” over KenPom and Quad 1 wins and predictive metrics. But I love what you guys do, thanks!
