00:00-JMV has a theme for his opening segment: He’s selfish. He discusses IUBB vs Wisconsin and his hatred of watching Badgers basketball, how he hates watching the Pacers knowing they are trying to tank and the importance of the NBA draft this summer for Kevin Pritchard, why he think the NCAA owes Indy a full NCAA Tournament with fans in the stands, and the combine being in Indy for probably the final time in a couple weeks.

29:26-Greg Rakestraw joins JMV to talk about the future direction of the Colts before a preview of IU vs Wisconsin and if it’s a “must win” for the Hoosiers and their NCAA Tournament chances, how the Big Ten compares to other Power 5 conferences in CBB this year, and some of the great girls regionals for the Indiana High School State Tournament.

45:18-For the final time until closer to the draft, PFF Data Scientist and Betting Analyst Ben Brown joins JMV to talk about potential replacements including whether Jameis Winston would give the Colts a higher ceiling than Wentz, what is going on in Arizona with Kyler Murray, how the free agent WR changes with ACL injuries to some key guys, and if the Colts would be better off adding a TE or WR in free agency.

1:11:46-with Tigers Catcher Tucker Barnhart coming on later, JMV reminisces about sports posters in the past and some of his favorite that he had hanging in his bedroom. He then talks about his level of excitement to see Myles Turner play with Tyrese Haliburton and this new look team.

1:25:50-Detroit Tigers Catcher Tucker Barnhart joins JMV to give an update on the MLBPA and Owners negotiations and if they are close at all to a deal, why starting Spring Training late is a big deal for pitchers and catchers, and he tells a story of what he gets asked from other players about when they might return and some of the intense dialogue during the meetings.
