The Friars opened their season with an 89-79 win over Holy Cross, powered by the dazzling freshman duo of Stefan Vaaks and Jamier Jones. We break down what we learned from Game 1 - the new identity taking shape under Kim English, the encouraging depth, and the defensive lapses that nearly let the Crusaders back in. Then we look ahead to Saturday’s matchup against Virginia Tech at Mohegan Sun and what Providence needs to do to stay unbeaten.

Go Friars!

The Providence Friars are coming off their worst season in 40 years - back when Prince ruled the charts with “When Doves Cry” and Apple launched the Macintosh. Now, under third year head coach Kim English, the Friars look to silence the noise and return to March Madness

In this episode, we break down how English has completely reshaped this roster, what went wrong last year, and what to expect as Providence tips off the new season against Holy Cross. It’s tournament or bust in Friartown - and it all starts Monday night at the AMP.
