Auburn's Bruce Pearl joins the Coaches this week, as Bruce and Gary start the conversation in Chestnut Hill and Dr. Tom Davis.    Before Coach Pearl joins, the guys talk college hoops from top to bottom; top players, recent games, and a look into March.  Sprinkled throughout, credit to Providence College Hoops.   Also, and of course, the Coaches take on the NBA, specifically the Trade Deadline.  And one more thing... Coach Pearl doesn't disappoint.

Coaches are back at LIVE! Casino's FanDuel Sportsbook this week.  Plenty of college hoop talk.  Razorbacks take down Auburn.  Who knew Gary was a signature away from being the Arkansas Coach in the 80's?  NIL talk.  A big man can always bail out bad shooters!  The Wizards... Same stuff different year!  Trade Deadline is here.  Plenty to talk about in the NBA.

The Coaches go heavy into the college game this week.   Michigan State brings a style, and Coach Izzo is the reason.  Speaking of being competitive, the Terps had Greivis.   No more Hoya Nation, at least not to what we knew.  Multiple top college jobs need to be filled, starting soon.   NBA talk and what's up with the rift between the Lakers and Jerry West. 

This week, Philadelphia's native son, Iowa Hawkeye's Fran McCaffery joins the conversation.  Not too many places are better than the Palestra.  Tap thinks there's a better place to watch in-person located in Kansas.   The Coaches think the SEC Conference is good for a reason.  NBA Talk, college talk, and some funny stories throughout. 

Some back and forth between the college game and the NBA.   The great question is, do you coach to your talent, or do you stick with the system.  Note to self, don't visit with Boheim the night you beat him.   Gary's take on the Big East and ACC League meetings.  How many #1 overall picks are sidelined this year?  Enjoy...

Coaches Williams, Knoche, Patsos, Tapscott, and Austin are joined by another high-profile former coach, Dave Odom, for an entertaining holiday episode. Among the topics discussed, the NCAA’s response to COVID, the prestige of the Maui Invitational, and mining the G league for temporary replacements. Happy New Year from Hometown Podcasts and The DC Coaches Basketball Podcast.

Coming LIVE! from the FanDuel Sportsbook this week.  A multitude of topics covered: COVID, Rivalry Games, Making the call on who gets the last shot, NBA Super Teams & a shout-out to Hank Nichols.   The Coaches also talk about the importance of the out-of-conference schedule. For dessert, Tom Pender stories, the good ones.   Wait, did Jimmy win money?

Coaches are spirited this week as they gear up for their on-site appearance at the FanDuel Sportsbook at LIVE! Casino on Wednesday, 12/22.   Before prepping their wagers, they talk NBA and College Hoops.   Steph Curry is making it look too easy, but Gary thinks this new record will be broken.  The conversation moves to the college game.  Who do you think the top transfers are of all time?  When Boeheim leaves, does the zone as we know it go away?
