Grant is back to join Sam this week!

The majority of the conversation revolves around a couple of backcourt pieces for this season and one for next year.

Omer Mayer is on campus! How does he look? Is he worth the hype, or does he have some work to do? Can he make the transition post-Braden Smith easier?

As for Smith, he's in Las Vegas for the CP3 camp! What is he hoping to gain from the trip out west?

Finally, 2026 commit Luke Ertel is making waves in the summer season! He is catapulting up the 2026 top-recruit list. How does he fit into the team once he hits campus?

It's a great show, and we're at 95 days until the season starts! ENJOY!

Sam is flying solo today!

He's going to discuss some recruiting offers made by the Boilers for the Class of 2026 and beyond.

A good portion of them are top-50 or higher recruits, which raises some questions about the recruiting strategies of Coach Painter and the coaching staff.

Finally, former Boilermaker Robbie Hummel was named as part of the new broadcast team for NBA on NBC this upcoming basketball season!

It's a good one!

ENJOY!

Sam & Grant are discussing a couple of fresh topics!

Oscar Cluff arrives on campus! What are their thoughts of him so far?

Omer Mayer is playing in Greece at the FIBA U20 tournament! His performance should have Boilermaker fans cautiously excited!

Finally, the possible rotation of minutes for the upcoming season will be a challenge for Coach Painter. The guys review a potential rotation that was posted on X by TRY Trusts Paint.

Where do they think it could be changed, or where could other players get some minutes?

It's a packed show! ENJOY!
