Hawaii head coach Rich Hill joins the show and is greeted by the words of his former assistants who are now head coaches. As his coaching tree provides the best lessons he taught them, Hill expounds on coaching process and why each lesson is important. He also discuss the difficulties of recruiting at a location 2,600 miles away, talks about what it'll take to have success in the Big West and how a new conference tournament could shake things up in the league.

Later in the episode, D1Baseball national writer Eric Sorensen joins to talk Hawaii, the Warriors' early-season success and how he thinks the Big West will play out this season. Stitch Head also discusses what to make of the strong starts of several former Pac-12 programs.

Then, finally, we close out the show with Mr. Perfect. Portland senior lefthander Ryan Rembisz comes on the show to talk about throwing the 21st nine-inning perfect game in Division I history.
