Two big talking points this week: the official signing of the lease to move Austin Peay hoops to the Multi-Purpose Events Center in 2022 and the spring 2021 football schedule. There's also postseason baseball and basketball on the back half and a great Geordon Pollard interview in between. Put some respect on Terry Taylor's name, Joe Lunardi.

Welcome back to Total Recall, where our athletics communications staff gets together to rehash a moment in Austin Peay history, preferably by watching the game and talking it over. Today we reminisce upon Austin Peay's massive comeback win during the wild 2016 OVC Tournament run. The Govs rallied from 20 down against the Tigers, Casey won a trip to Myrtle Beach he never cashed in and this game became the moment when hope started giving way to belief.

Welcome to Mental Health Mondays, a new offering at PeayCast Productions on the topic of student-athlete mental health and wellness. Today we welcome in Riley Cooper of the women's golf team. Golf, by its nature an isolating sport, offers a mental challenge even for those playing recreationally; add in the time commitment, competitive spirit and stress one can face in a competitive, collegiate setting and the hurdles can seem daunting. Cooper has sought to become more a leader in the space where mental health is concerned, and we talk in detail about mental health occupying a more positive space, the importance of fun and battling back from a negative headspace.

As we once more stare into a future unsure of our next date of competition, the guys discuss the Cincinnati trip, Skyline, another big CJ Evans Jr. performance and the debate that has plagued the office for most of a week: Trevor Bauer or Jacob deGrom for National League Cy Young? In more interesting discussions, Lexi Maslowski of the soccer program stops by to discuss Seattle, the ukulele, getting back on the pitch and supporting your friends.
