Justice- we don't need no stinkin' justice! To paraphrase Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Travis graduatedfro Tri-Center and the walls are lined with his athletic accomplishments-not.
He still lives in Omaha right?

Afternoon drivetime radio everywhere is a bunch of different 20-minute spurts, so its never going to be super heavy-hitting with game analysis. Its mid-day shows and podcasts that can get more in-depth about teams, plays, coaching styles, recruiting strategy, etc.

All I hear is excuses for these people. 970 The Fan in Columbus is not like this. They even break down tOSU recruiting during drive time!!!

Des Moines is a bunch of amateurs.

So on brand.

I wasn't listening, but i can hear her say that...then Sean usually respectfully gives accurate information....then she patronizes him.
I was hoping that when Sean got promoted to an actual host, Heather would lay off treating Sean like a moron. That was a persona he played for years as a producer, and there were times where it almost sounded like she was bullying him. Sean has seemed to try and ditch that airhead persona, but Heather hasn't seemed to want to let him.

I’m honestly fine with Sean and even the producer who is a hawk, even with his hawk slant, he is pretty well informed on stuff in sports. Heather just gets her material from twitter friends and doesn’t do any type of checking it seems. And in my opinion she overcompensates for being a woman in radio and tries to act real “bro-y”.

I remember when she did a top 5 segment on the morning show and it was literally the top 5 stories on ESPN.
To each their own, but that guy is almost as bad as her in my opinion. Essentially unlistenable. Neither one of them have an original thought in their head.

Hes a total moron, I can't believe he's still on the air. He had no idea what he was talking about back in like 2008 so it sounds like nothing has changed.

He acts like he's a huge Hawk fan then he couldn't even remember who beat them in 2006 when they were a 3 seed.

I understand not remembering everything but this was only like 2 or 3 years after it happened. I'll never forgot Hampton and that was 23 years ago now.

Sean is quite good. Heather is quite bad.

Part of every NCAA game is using the first 5 or so minutes to feel how the officials will call the game. I'm not as concerned as others regarding officiating in the tournament.
I'm not conerned at all.

Yea about Ross. Downs decided to walk away. Not sure what he now does. I believe CW did a pod with him not that long ago.
