About this listen
It’s Friday Eve on Sports IQ, and we’re locked in on Final Four weekend. Larry Smith breaks down the latest headlines across college basketball, including Bill Self returning to Kansas, key injuries to watch heading into Indianapolis, and why this year’s tournament path feels different in today’s college sports landscape. We’re joined by Eric Hansen of BlueandGold.com for a deep dive into Notre Dame football and women’s basketball — from transfer portal strategy and playoff snubs to the rise of Hannah Hidalgo and what’s next for the Irish. Plus, Brian Barnhart, voice of Illinois basketball, shares the emotion behind the Illini’s run to the Final Four and why this team might be built to finish the job. We also hit NBA storylines, NFL moves, and the evolving reality of college athletics — from NIL to the transfer portal reshaping how teams are built. And in today’s Moment of Awe, we rewind to 1990 when UNLV delivered one of the most dominant title game performances ever, crushing Duke 103-73 behind Anderson Hunt’s 29 points — a historic win that still stands as the last by a non-power conference champion.
