A2a is back with another episode even though sports aren't! The guys give their thoughts on The Last Dance - did it live up to the hype?

The A2a crew is back to recap a jam packed draft from the weekend. We cover the picks, especially the Vikings record setting 15(!) picks, including 2 first rounders.

We go row the boat with the #5 recruiting class in the country and PJ Fleck. As he rebuilds, what does the future hold? Finally, we get to the only major sporting event left: the NFL Draft.

The QB carousel has started to roll headlined by TB12 to TB. The Vikings major move thus far is trading Stefon Diggs for a handful of draft picks including a 1st rounder. Worth it?

With March Madness approaching, the slow part of the sports year is wrapping up.
