After one bender too many, one doghouse too many, Paddy Gallagher decided enough was enough. He was quitting the gargle for good. But when he made that decision, he never really expected what would follow – a boxing comeback. However that's exactly what's going down, with the Pat Man ready to return now at the Waterfront, Belfast on February 27. He's been out of the ring since 2019 so there's bound to be some ringrust to shake off, and he'll need to rediscover his timing in there – not that he ever had any to begin with, he jokes. The Rocky Road spends a savage hour with the West Belfast boxer, going over his great amateur career that culminated in Commonwealth glory in India in 2010, turning professional in the Carl Frampton era, tournament boxing in Prizefighter and at the WBC World Invitational in Louisville, and becoming close with Gary Murray, who nearly lost his life after a fight with today's interviewee. Now 36, Gallagher outlines his short-term ambitions in the sport and tells us why he's been inspired by the feats of fellow Belfast men Anthony Cacace and Lewis Crocker during his absence. We also delve into the psychology of the comeback, and the alternative - leaving your dreams behind when you feel you could've done just a little bit more. He hasn't gone away, you know…(Podcast image by Jordan Swain) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Indiana fell to Illinois 71-51 in Champaign in a game that exposed the Hoosiers' ceiling against elite Big Ten competition. After keeping it close for the opening 10 minutes, Illinois pulled away behind their size, depth, and athleticism while Indiana shot just 25% from three-point range and got dominated on the glass (giving up 15 offensive rebounds). Despite Lamar Wilkerson's 21 points and a defensive effort that held Illinois under their season averages, the Hoosiers simply didn't have enough firepower to compete for 40 minutes, dropping to 17-9 overall and 8-7 in Big Ten play.Jerod Morris and Coach Brian Tonsoni (live from State Farm Center) break down the disappointing but revealing loss:How a critical stretch midway through the first half—Conor Enright's bad turnover followed by Tucker DeVries's questionable second foul—triggered a 10-0 Illinois run that Indiana never truly recovered fromWhy Indiana's defensive game plan actually worked (holding Illinois to 71 points, 22% from three) but the math problem broke down when the Hoosiers couldn't hit open shots to capitalizeThe roster depth disparity on full display—Illinois had "more guys who could do more things" while Indiana's bench managed just five points (a Josiah Miles three and two Reed Bailey free throws)Lamar Wilkerson manufacturing 21 points without many clean looks, continuing to prove he's a complete scorer beyond just catch-and-shoot while teammates struggled around himWhat the offensive rebounding massacre (15 for Illinois, 4 for Indiana) reveals about the physical limitations of this roster against elite size and athleticismTayton Conerway's continued absence and regression raising concerns about depth heading into the final stretchWhy this loss shows Indiana's ceiling—good enough to beat peer-level teams but not equipped to compete with Final Four-caliber rosters like Illinois, Michigan, and Michigan State for full gamesPlus, as always: the big moments you might have missed, stats that stood out, and our game ball and hustle award.This episode brought to you by the Back Home Network and Homefield Apparel.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Over a distinguished NBA and collegiate career, Shane Battier established himself as a scholar-athlete, All-American, leader, and philanthropist. Dubbed the "No-Stats All-Star" by Michael Lewis in a New York Times Sunday Magazine cover story, Shane is regarded as one of the most successful, albeit atypical, basketball players in history for using his leadership, lockdown defense, and intellect to win championships at every level. After graduating with honors from Duke University with two Final Four appearances, one national championship, two All-American awards, & Naismith and John Wooden National Player of the Year awards, the Memphis Grizzlies selected Battier in the 2001 NBA draft. Battier went on to be part of the back-to-back 2012 and 2013 NBA championship Miami Heat team and a USA Basketball Men's Senior national team member. He understands that champions are made when no one is looking and that attention to the often-unnoticed intangibles makes the difference in building a championship culture. In our conversation this week, John and Jerry unpack the highs and lows of Shane's remarkable journey, from his childhood and the role of his parents, to his high school and college days, to his introduction to the NBA, and finally his championship seasons. We also discuss his post basketball years, his struggles with the transition off the court, an dhow he has reinvented himself to become an advisor, speaker, and a better father and husband.  BOOK A SPEAKER: Interested in having John or one of our speaking team come to your school, club or coaching event?

Send a textWhat if the Browns' next era starts with a new address and a new attitude? We dive into the looming stadium move to Brook Park and unpack why an indoor, multi-use venue could transform Cleveland's sports economy—Super Bowls, Final Fours, mega concerts—while weighing the real impact on downtown businesses and fan traditions.From there, we turn to the sideline. Todd Monken may not be the splashy headline, but we make the case for why an organized, veteran play-caller could be the right pivot after years of offensive churn. We revisit the Baker Mayfield to Deshaun Watson saga, distribute accountability across the building, and lay out how that decision still shapes today's roster math and draft strategy.Roster talk gets specific: rebuild the offensive line, secure a true WR1, and restore an identity that travels. We debate Shedeur Sanders' upside versus turnover risk, outline Dillon Gabriel's likely role as a steady reserve, and explain why clarity at quarterback starts with cleaner pockets and defined reads. Then we stack Stefanski against Browns history—does two Coach of the Year awards put him in the franchise top five?—and close with bold but reasoned 2025 win totals grounded in defense-first football and incremental offensive gains.If you care about Cleveland Browns news, NFL coaching changes, QB development, and draft strategy, this roundtable hits every angle with candor and receipts.

Today we've got a real treat. If you've watched sports on TV at any point in the last few decades, you've probably heard this man's voice. He's called everything – Super Bowls, Final Fours, big-time college football games and baseball games. He's been courtside, ringside, trackside, you name it. He's the guy who made us all lean in a little closer to the TV with that classic "You are looking live…" He's a storyteller, a legend in the booth, and a guy who's been right there for some of the biggest moments in sports. We're hanging with none other than Brent Musburger.

Click/tap here to view the Sermon Reflection Guide. Life is full of beginnings and endings. Most of the time, we get more excited about the former. With relationships, opportunities, careers, etc., there is a level of excitement and expectation with something new. Hope abounds. With endings, not so much. There is a finality to endings that often seems unsettling. There is a fear of uncertainty that can be particularly debilitating. But what if our perspective on both was just a bit off? What if beginnings and endings were far more connected than we realize? New things cannot begin if something else doesn't end. Life goes in seasons of life, death, and resurrection, or in other words, beginnings, endings, and new beginnings. We see that new beginnings mean new blessings and new mercies from God. Endings do not always have to have a negative connotation; there can be a glimmer of hope.

We break down his award-winning year (USTFCCCA Mountain Region Men's Assistant Coach of the Year), the rise of NCAA champion Daniel Reynolds, and why Barrett's training approach is the opposite of what most people expect: low volume, high recovery, high results.If you're a throws athlete, football player considering track, a high school coach trying to learn throws, or a recruit looking for a real pathway — this episode is loaded with practical coaching insight and recruiting advice.In this episode:How Paul went from wrestling → sprints/long jump → hammer throwWhy he loves JUCO recruiting (and why NWAC athletes get overlooked)What he looks for in a hammer/weight throw prospectThe training week that helped turn Daniel Reynolds into an NCAA championWhy Olympic lifts matter (and what they actually do in-season)The #1 thing high school throwers must fix on their Instagram recruiting pageWyoming's team culture, academics, facilities, and what surprises recruits mostFollow Coach Barrett: Instagram — @yo_pokes_throwsFueled by: Black Sheep Endurance CoachingValue for Value: Buy us a coffee (link in your ABR bio/show notes)Show Notes + Timestamps: 0:13 – Show open (Howdy & Aloha, value-for-value, Black Sheep Endurance)1:17 – Guest intro: Paul Barrett's résumé + Wyoming throws legacy2:37 – ABR milestone: first throws coach on the show3:18 – Where to find Coach Barrett: IG @yo_pokes_throws3:48 – Throughline: shoutout to Coach Sean McLachlin (NWAC connection)4:26 – Origin story: wrestling → sprinting/long jump → throwing discovery5:51 – Where he grew up: Texas/Kansas/Wyoming/Washington State6:28 – Spokane CC dynasty + NWAC dominance7:42 – JUCO recruiting: why he actively watches NJCAA + NWAC9:39 – Why JUCO athletes often become his hardest workers10:10 – Favorite event: hammer throw (as athlete + coach)11:15 – Hammer recruiting: what to look for if an athlete hasn't thrown hammer12:46 – Getting into coaching + love for strength & conditioning13:44 – Strength → throws transfer: why power matters14:38 – Key lifts: Olympic lifts, squats, core integration15:35 – Coaching progression: straight into S&C + throws roles16:27 – Recruiting battles: football vs track (and why “both” rarely works)18:11 – Why football players should do track (explosiveness + goals)19:29 – 27 years at Wyoming: how his coaching evolved20:13 – What he wants in recruits: work ethic + academics21:04 – Event setup: usually 2 events per athlete (team scoring strategy)21:49 – Geography: why he tends to recruit the West/Mountain/NW22:43 – Recruiting today: athletes DM him on Instagram (huge tool)23:57 – Daniel Reynolds story: seeing raw power → portal → instant potential25:16 – Technical changes + biggest difference: recovery + low-volume plan26:27 – Meaning of the national title (recruiting + recognition)27:06 – Day-in-the-life training: the shockingly short week (recovery focus)29:17 – In-season lifting: hang cleans + front squats + close-grip bench30:35 – Sets/reps: low reps (5–1), maintain power without beating them up31:02 – Daniel's numbers: hang clean 425 + speed/power combo31:52 – Season update: young talent + goals for indoor postseason32:40 – Postseason timeline: conference late Feb/early March, NCAAs mid-March33:39 – Why “less is more” (injury reduction + quality training)35:04 – Advice to HS throwers: build a real recruiting IG + post lifting/throws36:40 – Advice to HS coaches: YouTube + clinics (why throws improved recently)38:02 – Team culture: small town, tight-knit program, family vibe39:22 – Academics: engineering/agriculture + strong athlete academic support41:23 – Wyoming surprise factor: facilities, funding, athlete dining, resources43:01 – Winter reality + altitude: dry cold, longer season, indoor throwing option45:11 – Final Four: coffee order, mindset, music, guilty pleasure50:14 – Outro: upcoming ABR episodes (Nate Shearer + James Overheiser)

When: April 4th, 9AM-12PMWhere: UNRNKD Hoops (6331 Crawfordsville Road Indianapolis, IN 46224)Who: HS athletes from 9-12 grade, INCLUDING unsigned SeniorsWhat: D1 College Workout HOSTED BY D1 Coaches D2/D3 Coaches in AttendanceDan McHale is back for a short, straight-to-the-point bonus episode, and we're talking about what families actually care about right now: exposure, timing, and how recruiting really works in 2026. Dan is a former Division I head coach and longtime D1 assistant, and he breaks down why the old “just wait, it'll come” advice is getting kids left behind. We also get into the CRC Final Four Showcase in Indianapolis, built to put players directly in front of college coaches during Final Four weekend, plus give parents a real education on what rosters look like in the transfer portal era. Dan explains draft boards, why coaches share information, and why being proactive matters more than ever for 2026, 2027, and 2028 prospects. If you're a parent hoping a state title run will magically create offers, or a player trying to figure out the right next step, this is your reset. No hype, just the current market and what to do about it.

Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 0:51 Indiana Football won a natty. We say again: Indiana Football won. A natty. The Ohio State fans are crying Signs, it's great! Putting this in context because there hasn't been a more surprising national champion in any sport? Maybe Leicester but IU had the worst W% historically of any champion. Arc of college football is the big schools consolidate their chances of winning—last time a new school entered the ring it was Florida, which represented a demographic shift. What does this mean? Not a secret sauce but IU built similarly to 2023 Michigan: a base of players who played together a long time and some elite pieces added. They get better ROI by ignoring HS recruiting, put a lot of time and money into scouting. Similarity to Dusty May in that Cig knows what he needs and scouts the hell out of the rest of the sport. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. Hot Takes and Men's Basketball vs Ohio State Starts at 27:20 Takes hotter than it's not outside. OSU game was annoyingly close. At one point Michigan was 2/16 from three and under 50% from the charity stripe. Biggest story of the game is the way Michigan held Bruce Thornton in check—the one hedge to center court that Mara got called for a foul was an awful call, but a proof of concept for how they defended OSU, which was to not give Thornton any space. Great Crisler crowd kept getting into highs and then a low-percentage event would derail, like their 17%-shooting big Christoph Tilly making a pair of threes (one a bank), 24%-shooting Amare Bynum making a deep contested jumper, and Mobley getting a bank three as shot clock is dying. Missed front ends made FT shooting feel extra annoying, somehow righted in the 2nd half. Big part of that was 21 good minutes from Trey McKenney. Liked Cason and McKenney more than Cadeau in this one: OSU has a 7'0" center and a 7'2" center but both of them are glued to the floor, which favors YOLO players. Annoying turnovers trying to figure out their zone. 3. Men's Basketball vs Indiana and a Nebraska Preview Starts at 54:03 Less annoying game, as Indiana was without Tayton Conerway for all but two minutes, and nobody else has the ability to get to the rim. IU couldn't even get the ball inside the three-point line. They finished 11/34 (32%) from three and that was because they made twice as many as they should have. IU only got five ORebs as they abandoned the glass to stop Michigan's transition game but terrible Nick Dorn shots that went off the back iron were their best way of getting the ball in the paint. Final score doesn't reflect the game because once Michigan got up 20-5 they put it in cruise control—this time it wasn't LJ Cason on the one drive for a layup. Will Tschetter's defense on Tucker DeVries was also a major factor. Nebrasketball is truly good. Very well-coached team, has a good system that turns everybody into Nebraska: 11th in taking threes, 6th in opponent 3PA/FGA. Have to slow down the game to protect stretch C Rienk Mask, who's the key to that offense. Might be without small four Braden Frager and been without SG Connor Essegian most of the year so there's a 23% shooting big in Berke "the Turk" Buyuktuncel that you can hide Mara on. The problem with that is it takes Mara out of the paint so you can't get away with playing as aggressively on the perimeter. Think we saw the prototype for how they want to play against Nebraska in that Oregon game. Might be able to do what Illinois did, was to take shots but then crash the glass because they don't have a lot of size. 4. Women's Basketball wsg Ira Weintraub Starts at 1:15:12 Time to get to know the best women's team in school history. Three losses were all similar: got way behind in the 1st quarter, fought their way back, came up short. Defense is fantastic, play the full court and cause a lot of turnovers which creates offensive opportunities. Get bogged down a bit in the half court and struggle to make their FTs. WBB officiating is beyond atrocious. Washington loss was a schedule thing after 2OT late game vs Oregon, but UConn and Vandy losses showed they can play with the elites and just need one more big basket from the super sophs. Hockeybear is blogging the team and making Team Sheets (key). It's not so easy is it? Super sophs: Holloway runs the offense and sets the defensive tone, Olson is a bucket, Swordsy is hero, and then they're getting a year from a growing Delfosse and UCLA transfer Dudley. Mostly a seven-woman rotation with Sofilkanich giving them some size inside, BQD a nightmare of a defensive pest, and then growth from Crockett who gives them some more size when they need it. Can they compete with the ELITE-elites? Nobody's unbeatable this year; Michigan is a solid two-seed, feel like floor is Sweet 16, has the make of a team that ends up losing a Final Four game en route to a big run next year.   MUSIC: "Getting Killed"—Geese "Forever Never Ends"—Jeff Tweedy "Downhill"—The Delivery Boys feat.

In this Clinician's Corner, the focus was on the small details that separate “solid” from truly sharp officiating — especially in end-of-period situations and administrative moments that can quietly swing a game. The crew emphasized mechanical discipline: confirming 2 vs. 3, holding signals an extra beat, and always completing the full sequence (stop the clock → signal → strong direction → proper spot). We also hit a sneaky area that often gets missed — throw-in violations where a player steps out and illegally tosses the ball to a teammate. Add in reminders to use your voice on held balls and scrums, acknowledge sportsmanship when players help each other up, and stay aware of the bonus, and you get a masterclass in presence and clarity.

1. Bruce Pearl’s Career & Background Former Auburn basketball coach; won a Division II national championship and reached the Final Four twice. Unique fact: Pearl never played organized basketball (not even JV) before becoming a Division I coach. Started as a manager at Boston College, later became an assistant coach at Stanford under Tom Davis. Emphasizes making yourself valuable and being authentic as keys to success. 2. Coaching Philosophy Core principles: “Coach them as hard as you love them” – building deep relationships with players. Empower players and trust them; avoid micromanaging. Great coaches excel at creating offense and getting players good looks. Importance of roles and dimensions in a team: maximize strengths, hide weaknesses. Advice for young athletes: develop a unique skill or dimension that makes you stand out. 3. NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) & College Sports Pearl criticizes the NCAA for failing to adapt, calling it “arrogant” and responsible for chaos. NIL has transformed college sports: Top rosters now cost $35–$40 million annually. Smaller schools and Olympic sports are at risk of being cut. Advocates for urgent reform: Limited antitrust protection and congressional action to create fair rules. Warns that without changes, college sports will shrink to 30–50 elite programs. 4. Transfer Portal & Player Relationships Challenges in building trust and love when players stay only 6 months. Compares transfer portal dynamics to personal relationships—loyalty matters. 5. Broader Issues in Sports Concerns about betting and commercialization. Advice for high school athletes: play multiple sports early, specialize later, focus on nutrition and toughness. 6. Views on Israel & Anti-Semitism Strong advocate for Israel; sees American Jews as “the country’s greatest patriots.” Personal connection: family escaped Europe in 1929; others perished in the Holocaust. Believes silence equals complicity; stresses unity between Jews and Christians. Addresses rising anti-Semitism but emphasizes America still offers opportunity. 7. Cultural & Historical Insights Discusses theology, covenant, and shared values between Jews and Christians. Critiques “replacement theology” and urges solidarity against bigotry.
