Lots of talk about where the guys are going, decisions yet to be made, and a little tiny preview about what the team may look like next year. But a lot of the episode is devoted to hearing from our guy Brian Hanni about the Rock Chalk Roundball Classic - one of the best events in Lawrence every year. Have a listen!   Rock Chalk!

  We sat on this one for a few weeks, but if you want to re-live the immediate after the buzzer feeling, we recorded it for all of time. This was all over the place, predictably, given our shock and excitement of what had just transpired. Features about a hundred people who jumped up on stage to say something over the course of three hours. Some laughs, some cries, and too many drinks consumed by yours truly. It was a fun evening, and one we'll remember forever. We can watch the recording of the game. But we'll never be able to recreate the feeling right after -- except with this recording. Have a listen if you'd like.  Special thanks to Andy at the Rock Chalk Pod for helping us get the recording.
