We discuss the Dean Smith culture change in the QC and why it's taking some time to show results, as well as the psychology of bouncing back from a horrific loss and how to build momentum in a season...something our opponents this weekend seem to have figured out already.

Best game in town
Have listened for past 12+ months to most episodes of this show and others (Mint City, Crowncast, Queens Pitch, Crown Corner, etc.).
This is the most enjoyable podcast of the group. The hosts (John and Danny) come off as passionate and sincere without taking themselves too seriously.
For the crown, baby.
