On Time Machine Tuesday, Bomani Jones and Howard Bryant go back to the 1991 Final Four and the stunning upset that turned Duke into college basketball's ultimate villain. From Jerry Tarkanian's renegade UNLV program and Larry Johnson's rock-star Runnin' Rebels to Christian Laettner's rise and Coach K's defining moment, they unpack the racial, cultural, and class tensions that made this more than just a game. They revisit how UNLV “blackened” the sport, why Duke was seen as the clean-cut “Southern Ivy,” the NCAA's war on Tark, Prop 48 and Prop 42, and why this loss hit so hard for Black America. Plus: was it really fixed, or did Duke just finally stand up to the bully? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us Fan MailIconic Seasons: Duke's 1990–91 Redemption and Banner OneHost Aaron Meyer recounts the 1990–91 Duke Blue Devils' transformation from humiliation to national champions. After being demolished 103–73 by UNLV in the 1990 national semifinal and losing key veterans, Duke was widely dismissed, but Mike Krzyzewski added freshman Grant Hill and relied on sophomores Christian Laettner and Bobby Hurley, whose leadership matured after a “whine tape” exposed his negative reactions. A tough early loss at Virginia prompted a punishing practice where Hill broke his nose, and Duke later found its defensive, disciplined identity, sweeping North Carolina in the regular season before being routed by UNC in the ACC title game, when Krzyzewski told them they would win it all. In Indianapolis, Duke upset unbeaten UNLV on late plays by Hurley, Brian Davis, and Laettner's free throws, then beat Kansas for the championship, punctuated by Hurley's lob that Hill saved for a dunk and Davis's late dunk, earning Duke's first title and launching a dynasty.00:00 UNLV Upset Opening01:39 Duke Written Off03:05 Humiliation In Denver04:53 Grant Hill Commits06:24 Hurley Learns Leadership08:15 Toughness Practice Turning Point10:54 Beating North Carolina12:53 ACC Title Loss Promise15:05 Tournament Run To Indy16:15 Reliving The 103 73 Film17:47 UNLV Semifinal Miracle21:56 No Celebrating Yet23:09 Kansas Title Game Highlights27:31 Banner One Legacy30:12 Lessons And FarewellSupport the showDid you know we are one of the Top 30 Collage Podcasts in the World!https://podcast.feedspot.com/college_basketball_podcasts/?feedid=5529823&_src=f1_featured_emailSupport the Pod or Binge the Entire Season Now!https://www.buzzsprout.com/1269236/supporthttps://youtube.com/@IconicSeasonsConnect on Socialhttps://www.instagram.com/ncaaiconicseasons/

As a sports fan and more specifically a basketball fan, the month of march consists of making brackets and then after the first four days of the tournament, possibly ripping up those very same brackets. It is a month of hoops, last second buzzer beaters and ultimately one shining moment. For us here at the Historically Speaking Sports podcast, the month of March also means looking back on the best that the sport of college basketball has to offer From the Indiana Hoosiers perfect season to Christian Laettner's game winner against Kentucky and the unrivaled dominance of the UCLA Bruins led by Lew Alcindor (Later Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), Bill Walton and the "Wizard of Westwood" John Wooden. Yet in this episode --- we are going to be treading into dangerous waters. In this special March Madness edition of the Historically Speaking Sports Podcast Co-hosts Dana Auguster and Charles Combs will share their takes on basketball history that will certainly spark debate among the listeners as well as possible outrage. Those so called dangerous waters that the hosts will be drifting into in this episode is putting together the starting five, one bench player and the coach of 12 of the most prestigious college basketball programs in history.Some of the questions we will be tackling, who starts at point guard for Georgetown, Allen Iverson or Eric Sleepy Floyd. Who will team up with Michael Jordan at the University of North Carolina?Which two supremely talented guards will make up the back court for the University of Arizona which has a very rich history at those positions. And which of the five Kentucky coaches that have won championships in Lexington be tapped to be the head coach of the ultimate collection of Wildcats.All those questions and much more will be answered in this episode. But there is a point to all of this. this is only part one of a two part series. After the teams are constructed with lineups filled with legendary players, the second part of the series will feature a 12 team bracket and Charles and Dana will predict the winner of the tournament. Then with the help of artificial intelligence it will determine a winner and we will compare our predications with AI. Now how close they will come is yet to be seen. But....in this episode.... Charles and Dana will discuss and in some cases debate who is most deserving to be on their alma maters greatest collection of hoops talent. So sit back and prepare to either be in agreement or in total outrage on who we select for the first annual Historically Speaking Sports Alumni Basketball tournament... right here on the sports history network.To contact the show, you could write to us at Historically.Speaking.Sports@gmail.com

The UConn Huskies are back-to-back national champions after defeating the Purdue Boilermakers, 75-60, to conclude the college basketball NCAA Tournament. Danny Hurley's team won every tournament game by 14 or more points, with a total point differential of 140 representing the biggest in tournament history. Is UConn now cemented as a college hoops dynasty? They have six titles in six appearances, with only UCLA, Kentucky, and North Carolina having more all-time. Tristen Newton led UConn in scoring in each of the past two tournaments, joining Christian Laettner from Duke as the only people to do that since the tournament expanded in 1985.Zach Edey had 37 points in a losing effort for Matt Painter's squad, while Braden Smith (12 points) was the only other Boilermaker in double figures. Purdue didn't quite 'pull a Virginia' but they certainly helped put last season's loss to Fairleigh-Dickinson in the rearview mirror.Join the Locked On College Basketball Discord: https://discord.gg/bsKxDp8Qqb Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

This week we are so excited to welcome NBA All-Star Jamal Mashburn (Dallas Mavericks, Miami Heat, Charlotte Hornets) to The Old Man and the Three! Mash was truly an amazing guest. He got into what he sees when watching today's NBA and how he compares it to where the league was in the 1990s and 2000s. He also shared great stories about playing for Rick Pitino at the University of Kentucky, why he thinks Pitino is the best teacher of the game, and how he thinks Pitino was ahead of his time. Then, Mash discusses his own skillset, one that many would also consider to be ahead of its time in the 90s. JJ and Mash also have an in-depth discussion about basketball skill development in the present day and how it does or doesn't translate to the NBA. Mash also shares what Michael Jordan once told him in a one-on-one game, and what he remembers about playing in possibly the greatest NCAA basketball game ever played (The Christian Laettner shot). New York Knicks guard Josh Hart then joins for a draft of Things That Should Be Illegal.
