    Tulsa Head Men's Basketball Coach Eric Konkol joins the show to preview the 2024-25 Tulsa Basketball season! With football on a bye last week and TU being a 2-point underdog to 1-5 Temple (!) this week, we decided to kick football to the curb for a change and go all-in on basketball. Eric Konkol joins us to break down the 2024-25 season including his recent contract extension, building off a team that lost its two leading scorers, schematic changes, NIL strategies, scheduling philosophies, Slappin' Glass, and a ton more. We had a blast talking with coach and hope you all get as much out of it as we did.

    Tulsa football is coming off a brutal two-week stretch where we got blown out by North Texas and Army to open AAC play.

Then, since it's our bye week, we welcome in friend and cohost(?) J.J. Cody for the 4th time to bring back J.J.'s No Sports Zone! We talk bees, dogs, scandals, hobbies, podcasts, books, and more.
