Welcome to Episode #52 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. This is our first offseason episode of season two. And just like last season, we'll discuss the big roster decisions made after the portal season and the pre-NBA Draft workouts were completed.  With revenue sharing, the #WideAwake campaign, and a top-two recruiting class, the Cougars will make another run at that elusive National Championship!   We begin this episode by commenting on the lone addition from the Portal (Kalifa Sakho). Then, we quickly provide perspectives on how the team fared from a roster-building perspective during the portal season. We finish by providing another "way too early" forecast of how we see the line-ups and rotations breaking down going into next season. - The video version of No Conference for Old Men is available on YouTube and GoCoogs.com. The audio is on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Megaphone, and SoundCloud. We're also available via the Republic of Football Podcast feed from the folks at Dave Campbell's Texas Football as their only basketball-centric offering. - Intro / Exit music:  Ground Zero provided by FreeBeats.io - Please follow us on https://gocoogs.com/old-men/ Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by by the Go-2-Guy, Jim Moore and former Mariners pitcher and host of the “Old School Baseball” podcast Bill Krueger. Puck starts off the show busting Jim's chops because he can't figure out his microphone settings and Puck is begging him to take it to a computer store.  Jim and Puck spend much of their show discussing the Mariners and their sweep of the San Diego Padres.  Jim argues and for good reason that Bryan Woo is now pitching like the ace of the staff and what makes the Mariners so dangerous is if they can get into the postseason their pitching can be so dominant.  Puck is heading down to Bend this weekend for a baseball tournament and is annoyed with Jim that he won't be there this weekend.  They react to Scottie Scheffler winning the PGA Championship and what makes him so likable.   Puck celebrates the Ballard High School baseball and softball team for winning the Metro Championships in the same year!  The Denver Nuggets couldn't help out Seattle and take out Oklahoma City.  Puck feels it's inevitable that OKC wins the NBA championship and he can't stand to think of the reality of that happening.  Bill Krueger, host of the “Old School Baseball” podcast joins Puck for his weekly visit talking Mariners baseball.  How did the M's go from going 1-5 on their last home stand to sweeping the Padres in San Diego?  Bill spends a lot of time talking about the Sunday performance of Bryan Woo and the overall performance of Woo for the season.  Why his mechanics and delivery make him so consistent and talented.   Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck?!”  The Mariners proved this weekend they could be dangerous in the playoffs (1:00) Puck and Jim (56:22) Bill Krueger (1:22:51) “Hey, What the Puck!?”

On Friday's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett welcomes his Friday guests, Jim Moore, Chris Egan from KING 5 and The Scout.  Puck and Jim open up talking nonsense like usual.  Puck explains to Jim what the Vedder Cup is and Jim is not interested. Jim wants to buy an electric bike and that leads Puck down a rant on E-Bikes…they aren't bikes, they are motorcycles! Puck and Jim then welcome Chris Egan from KING 5 to the show and Egan reacts right away to Jim's story about going to Wrigley Field.  Like Jim, Egan had no clue what the Vedder Cup is, but is excited to see what the Mariners do in San Diego.  Egan is optimistic about the upcoming Seahawks season and thinks they have a great shot at going 12-5.  The boys chat about the Seahawks cracking down on Seahawks fans selling their tickets to opposing fans. Egan and Jim like the idea, but Puck has an issue with it and doesn't like what they are doing.  Egan went to Arizona last weekend to move his college son out and was horrified at what he saw in his apartment.  After Puck says goodbye to Egan and Jim, he welcomes in “The Scout”, an anonymous MLB scout who joins Puck every Friday to get the inside scoop on the Mariners.  This week they talk about the recent struggles of Ben Williamson, the red hot play of Cole Young in Tacoma, what does he look for right away in a prospect, Bryan Woo and his dominating fastball, he builds his perfect player with current MLB players and they wrap up discussing the upcoming MLB draft where the Mariners have the third overall selection and the The Scout details all the promising talent in the Northwest that can be drafted in the first round. Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”  Puck reacts to the Seattle Seahawks and their new ticket policy. (1:00) Puck and Jim (32:08) Puck, Jim and Chris Egan (1:05:25) “The Scout” (1:29:53) “Hey, What the Puck!?”
