    Beauty In the Eye of the Basketball Beholder
    2026/03/31
    The Kansas Jayhawks, BYU Cougars, and TCU Horned Frogs all had seasons full of highs, heartbreaks, and what-ifs — and we're breaking it all down. Brian Hanni, the voice of the Kansas Jayhawks, talks about how Darryn Peterson's health woes created two completely different Kansas teams, the offensive inconsistencies that derailed a talented squad, and why Peterson could still be the top pick in the NBA Draft. BYU SportsNation co-host Jarom Jordan then talks about what AJ Dybantsa's time in Provo truly meant for the program, the wave of injuries that derailed Final Four dreams, and why BYU's best days may be still ahead. Melissa Trebwasser, host of the Frogs Insider Podcast, on TCU's remarkable turnaround — from losing their starting center in game one to finishing sixth in the Big 12 — and what it will take for Jamie Dixon's squad to finally break through in March. Plus, the biggest storylines from the college basketball landscape, including Arizona's stunning run to the Final Four and Houston's surprising Sweet 16 exit.

  • From the Vault -West Virginia: The Hero's Journey of Hot Rod Hundley

    From the Vault -West Virginia: The Hero's Journey of Hot Rod Hundley
    2026/03/26
    When the Big Stories team hit a recording snag, we reached back into the vault for a great story from Season 1 — and with March Madness in full swing, the timing couldn't be better. This week, we revisit our episode about Hot Rod Hundley — the Charleston, West Virginia native who became a West Virginia University basketball legend. Equal parts showman, entertainer, and flawed hero, Hot Rod dazzled crowds with behind-the-back passes, hook shots, and a personality that packed arenas long before the varsity game even tipped off. We hear from filmmaker Dan Loman, WVU's Director of Athletic Content John Antonik, bar owner Al Bonner, and Hot Rod's own daughters — painting a portrait of a man who was larger than life on the court, complicated off of it, and beloved by an entire state. From his hardscrabble childhood in Charleston to the retirement of his #33 jersey at WVU Coliseum, Hot Rod's hero's journey is messy, funny, and deeply human.
