Talkin Hoops with Kev Luke

On this episode I first talk about the dominant run that Danny Hurley and UConn have been on in the last 2 seasons. They captured their 2nd title in 2 years and their 6th since 1999 so I break it all down while also showing Purdue love. I then talk about the seismic news in college hoops where John Calipari decided to move on from Kentucky and take the job at Arkansas. I then view the options and speak on who Kentucky’s next head coach might be. Tap in ‼️

Iowa State is currently sitting at the 2nd spot at the top of the Big 12. Going into this season barely anybody was talking about them and yet here they are with an undefeated record at home in the 2nd week of February. TJ Otzelberger and his staff did a great job of assembling a roster via returners and the transfer portal. So on this episode I breakdown why the Cyclones are one of the top teams in the entire country. As always tap in ‼️

In year 1 at Texas Tech Grant McCasland and his staff have the Red Raiders as a top 3 team in the Big 12. So on this episode I breakdown how and why they’ve had this much success up until this point of the season and why it will continue all the way through March. Tap in ‼️

On this episode I give my flowers to John Calipari and this Kentucky Wildcats team. I go in depth on each of their rotational players and why the Cats have a great chance of getting to the final four for the first time in a long time. Tap in ‼️

On thee first official episode of Talkin hoops wit Kev Luke I had to talk about the downward spiral of both USC and UCLA's men's basketball programs. For 2 really good programs as we currently stand they are both 6-7 in this young 23-24 season. For UCLA and Mick Cronin it is not the end of the world but Jaime Jaquez and Tyger Campbell are not walking through that door. It's time to grow and develop the talent that you actually recruited. For USC and Andy Enfield those hot seat conversations must heat up. He is in Year 11 and has superb talent but they look outclassed in 80% of the games they've played in so far. As always tap in ‼️
