The Ringer's Tate Frazier quickly hits on Dan Hurley and UConn beating Creighton in Omaha for the first time, the bedeviling SEC wins stat that continues to confuse sports pundits, and Tate's eye-test top 10 teams (1:50). Then Tate is joined by Stanford head coach Kyle Smith to discuss landing his dream job at Stanford, recruiting to build a culture, embracing "nerdball," the collapse of the Pac-12, last year's Washington State roster finding success in their new ventures, and much more (18:51). Finally, Tate and Producer Kyle run through some games to watch this weekend (46:42), before closing the show with shout-outs, including Mike Woodson protecting Bobby Knight's Big Ten wins record from Tom Izzo, Maryland basketball, YouTube TV avoiding a college hoops disaster, and more (53:21).
