Scott Mitchell and "The Zone Coach" Jim Fannin return for a high-performance Thursday that blends sports psychology with the biggest headlines in the NFL, PGA, and March Madness. Scott opens the show with a "frantic" personal story about dismantling his vintage 1962 Colt revolver and the four-day struggle to put it back together—leading into a powerful "hack" from Jim on how to mentally visualize success before you even start.

We also dive into the "appetizer" round of March Madness, debating the longevity of teams like Prairie View and Miami of Ohio, while looking back at the moment Michael Jordan became "the guy" under Dean Smith.
