Episode Notes

In the newest episode of the Blue Ribbon College Basketball Podcast, hosts Chris Dortch—editor and publisher of Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook—and Kevin Ingram—the radio voice of Vanderbilt men’s basketball—discuss a variety of college basketball (and other) topics:

• Michigan caps off a dominant NCAA Tournament run. Kudos to coach Dusty May and the mighty Wolverines, a team carefully constructed through the portal. There’s an art to that, and May and his staff have mastered it.

• No one can accuse North Carolina of not thinking outside the box when it came to hiring a new coach.

• Portal mania is upon us. More than 1,800 players have already jumped ship. Some have a distorted sense of self-worth.

• One great sporting event follows another. It’s Masters week, and Kevin and Chris—who covered 10 Masters during his double life as a golf writer—share their memories of the world’s greatest golf tunamint.
