The coaching carousel is almost done (looking at you, Maryland Eastern Shore), so we decided to give grades for all 66 coaches hired so far, from the big time brands like Kentucky and Ohio State, down to the low major schools such as UT Martin and New Orleans, on an A+ to F scale. We also went in depth on the hires, so if you haven't been paying attention this offseason, this is the place to catch up!

2024 is near, and with the start of the new year marks the start of conference play! With all we've gathered in the first few months of the season, Austin and Kyle look at college basketball with a wide view and predict what conference standings are going to look like. Also covered in this episode are some main storylines in college basketball, including Terrence Shannon Jr's indefinite suspension and the new transfer rules.

In our latest podcast episode. we touch on all of the major tournaments to happen during the best regular season week, Feast Week, in addition to covering the recent ACC-SEC Challenge games.

College basketball is back and so are we with our regularly scheduled podcasting! It was an eventful week one, and even with a underwhelming opening night, there was still lots of excitement, headlined by James Madison's win over Michigan State. We also made a list of who's stock has gone up and down in week one, and lastly predicting the games the next week.

In our final conference preview of the preseason, we move to the high major level with the ACC! The conference was disappointing last year, but Miami did make the final four. This year, Duke is the team to watch, being a consensus top 5 team. Miami still has some key players back, and North Carolina could make it back into contending after such a disappointing season. Also, Clemson and Virginia field solid teams, and have favorable chances to make the tournament. Syracuse, NC State, Wake Forest, Virginia Tech and Pitt have some pieces, and have a chance for the tournament. As always, we look at every team in the conference in depth, and where we have them ranked, and select our all-conference teams. Then, we give our picks for top transfers, breakout players, and all-freshmen team in the conference.

To our next conference preview, we look at the newly named Coastal Athletic Association! Pat Kelsey and Charleston once again look to be at the top of the conference, as he got a very strong portal class, as always. UNC Wilmington, Drexel, Hofstra and Towson should be competitive as well. If Stony Brook gets back to full health, they could be dangerous, in addition to William & Mary and Delaware fielding solid teams. As always, we look at each team in depth and rank them, and select our all conference teams, in addition to giving our top transfers, breakout players and freshmen in the conference.

Next up in our conference previews we have the Big South! UNC Asheville was the tournament representative last year, and has a strong chance at making it back, thanks to elite big man Drew Pember. Elsewhere in the conference, Winthrop should make there was back to the top, Radford, Gardner-Webb, Longwood and USC Upstate have lots of talent, and High Point brought in a loaded transfer class. As always, we individually preview and rank every team, and give our top transfers, breakout players, and freshmen in the conference.

For our next conference, we head to the America East, a conference long dominated by Vermont. Every year, there seems to be a candidate that people like besides Vermont, but the Catamounts always get the job done, and we don't think that'll change this year. However, UMass Lowell and Bryant have lots of talent and potential, and there could be some sneaky other teams with Albany, Maine, and Binghamton looking intriguing. As always, we go in depth and rank every team in the conference, plus look at the top transfers, top breakout candidates, and top freshmen.
