With the calendar counting down to the scheduled start of football training camp, this week brought plenty of news about what might come next as the Badgers prepare for the coming season. Brian and Patrick break down the new 10-game Big Ten schedule announced Wednesday by the league, as well as a look at the safety protocols put in place by the conference and what the loss of season tickets means to the Badgers' bottom line. They also dive into what a pandemic-era practice will look like at UW and consider some of the on-field questions they're looking to see answered when camp opens next week.

With off-campus evaluations and on-campus official visits halted by COVID-19, how have the Badgers continued to find success on the recruiting trail? Assistant coaches Alvis Whitted (football) and Joe Krabbenhoft (men's basketball) join Brian and Patrick to discuss how their staffs have gotten creative in showing prospects what UW has to offer, as well as how they've become flexible in their approaches to building relationships with recruits and their families. They also assess the state of their current teams as they continue to navigate the challenges of coaching in a pandemic and discuss what it's like working under Paul Chryst and Greg Gard.

In Part 2 of his discussion with Brian and Patrick, Bo Ryan dives deep into memories from the Badgers' Final Four runs, reveals the wins and losses he'll always remember, and shares his excitement for son Will Ryan taking over as head coach at Green Bay. Plus, did Bo ever draw a technical foul on purpose? What did he think when Nigel Hayes called him "Pops?" We get answers to those questions and many more in a fun, wide-ranging conversation.

Five years after retiring as the most successful men's basketball coach in Wisconsin history, Bo Ryan headlines the 2020 class of the UW Athletic Hall of Fame. In Part 1 of a two-part conversation, he joins Patrick and Brian to talk about getting his call to the hall from Barry Alvarez and how he's spending his time in retirement, as well as diving into stories that span everything from sneaking into the 1960 NFL championship game to the opposing player he considered the most challenging to coach against.

The conversation on racism in America is continuing and many around the country are asking questions about how to turn these words into meaningful action. A pair of Badgers, Madison Cone and Izayah Green-May, are continuing to lead the way on racial justice efforts among their peers at Wisconsin while working to take their impact beyond the program. Cone is representing UW on the newly-formed Big Ten Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Coalition while Green-May has been tabbed to serve as president of the group Student-Athletes Equally Supporting Others (SAESO) within UW Athletics. They join Brian and Patrick to discuss their experiences, what Badgers of all stripes can do to further the movement for social justice and what it's like to be back in Madison with their football teammates for the first time in months.

Protests have taken hold around the world in the wake of the recent murders of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, events that have brought the role of systemic racism in America squarely into the spotlight and forced a much-needed examination of its effects — notably incidents of police brutality — on the black community. Kalvin Barrett (football) and Michael Jackson (men's basketball and track), both former UW student-athletes and both black men, join Brian and Patrick for an open and frank discussion on these issues and where we go from here, both culturally and as Badgers. A former police officer who now teaches criminal justice and police academy courses, Barrett brings unique perspective on the role of law enforcement. Now an associate athletic director at his alma mater, Jackson offers insight into how UW Athletics can make an impact, both on its student-athletes and the larger Badgers community.

Patrick and Brian's conversation with Frank Kaminsky shifts to story time, including some tremendous tales from the film room at Wisconsin and in the NBA. Did Frank and Co. really change Bo Ryan? Was Michael Jordan the owner (and Frank's boss) as competitive as Michael Jordan the player? Frank dives into those stories and more memories, from the bonds built during the Badgers' back-to-back Final Four runs to his family ties to the Bulls and growing up around the United Center in the years that followed "The Last Dance."
