Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Wild, who can't seem to do anything the easy way. But a goal with 22 seconds left in their final regular-season game clinched a playoff spot. Can they compete with Vegas, a team against which they went 0-3 during the regular season, in the playoffs? Plus a look at schedules reveals it is going to be bonkers around here next week between the Wild, Wolves and NFL Draft. 11:00: La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for their weekly debate segment. In focus: Wolves vs. Lakers, Twins vs. themselves and Niko Medved vs. the transfer portal. 33:00: Byron Buxton looks like himself again.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Twins, who lost again and now sit at 5-12. Three things stand out: Their pitchers have committed six errors this season, twice as many as any other staff in the majors; the smallest announced crowd in non-Covid Target Field history watched Monday's game; and the Twins are tied for their worst start in franchise history. Plus the Lynx made significant moves during Monday's WNBA Draft and Paige Bueckers went No. 1 overall to Dallas, as expected. 10:00: Marcus Fuller joins Rand to break down Niko Medved's work in the transfer portal so far this season. With six new transfer additions and more to come, where do the Gophers stand? 35:00: A big night with clear stakes for the Wild.

Justin Michael reacts to the news that Kyan Evans will be transferring to North Carolina. He also talks about how CSU's record of talent development is a great recruiting tool as the Rams look to take the next step as a basketball program. Justin then transitions to football and gives a few observations before playing interviews with DT Andrew Laurich and LB Jacob Ellis. He talks about the controversy surrounding a Florida student reporter and why the commentary on the sanctity of journalism lacks important context in 2025. 0:00 Start2:45 Kyan Evans to UNC17:50 Hoops portal update23:15 Spring football updates31:53 Sound from Andrew Laurich35:03 Sound from Jacob Ellis38:35 Potential breakout candidates for CSU Football An ALLCITY Network Production PARTY WITH US: https://thednvr.com/events ALL THINGS DNVR: https://linktr.ee/dnvrsports MERCH: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dnvr-locker SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/DNVR_Sports Breck Brew Ice Deck Giveaway: http://breckbrew.com/icedeckMonarch Money: Use Monarch Money to get control of your overall finances with 50% off your first year at https://www.monarchmoney.com/dnvr UCHealth: Learn more about Living Like There's A Tomorrow at https://www.uchealth.org/tomorrow/?utm_source=DNVR&utm_medium=Audio&utm_campaign=Brand_LLTIAT_Null_JFMFY25_AW_Null If you want to learn more about inspiring patient stories from UCHealth, you can head to https://uchealth.org/tomorrow to learn what it means to live like there is a tomorrow. Visit Your Front Range Toyota Stores at a location near you - Toyota is the official vehicle of DNVR.

Justin Michael plays his interview from earlier this week with Colorado State men's basketball head coach Ali Farokhmanesh. Farokhmanesh talks about his love for Fort Collins and what it means to him to keep his family in the community. He also talks about his vision for the future, how his staff is coming together and more. Justin also gives a few thoughts at the beginning on the Nuggets dismissing Calvin Booth and why he doesn't feel it's anything to panic about for Ram fans after the program recently signed Carey Booth. 0:00 Start2:00 Carey Booth and Men's basketball16:40 Ali Farokhmanesh joins the show35:25 Ali Farokhmanesh part 254:50 Takeaways from talking with Ali An ALLCITY Network Production PARTY WITH US: https://thednvr.com/events ALL THINGS DNVR: https://linktr.ee/dnvrsports MERCH: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dnvr-locker SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/DNVR_Sports Breck Brew Ice Deck Giveaway: http://breckbrew.com/icedeckMonarch Money: Use Monarch Money to get control of your overall finances with 50% off your first year at https://www.monarchmoney.com/dnvr UC Health: Learn more about Living Like There's A Tomorrow at https://www.uchealth.org/tomorrow/?utm_source=DNVR&utm_medium=Audio&utm_campaign=Brand_LLTIAT_Null_JFMFY25_AW_Null If you want to learn more about inspiring patient stories from UCHealth, you can head to https://uchealth.org/tomorrow to learn what it means to live like there is a tomorrow. Visit Your Front Range Toyota Stores at a location near you - Toyota is the official vehicle of DNVR.

Justin Michael talks about Ali Farokhmanesh making a splash with his first two major commitments as the Colorado State men's basketball coach. He lays out why Jase Butler is an intriguing addition to the roster despite his struggles as a freshman at Washington. He also gets into the latest CSU Football commits, Tory Horton's Pro Day and more. Justin plays clips of Horton and Jay Norvell following his workout.

Justin Michael gives an update on the transfer departures for CSU men's basketball and talks about the first big commitment of the Ali Farokhmanesh era. He gets into why Ram fans need to be patient at first with Carey Booth, but if things go right he has a chance to be the next great redemption story for the Green & Gold. Justin then talks about CSU Football and the start of spring practices. He gets into some early observations, as well as questions he has going into the summer. He also plays his interview with transfer tight end Rocky Beers. 0:00 Start7:05 CSU Men's basketball departures19:00 Carey Booth and Nique Clifford34:33 Football updates39:30 Sound from Rocky Beers45:50 Spring Football observations An ALLCITY Network Production PARTY WITH US: https://thednvr.com/events ALL THINGS DNVR: https://linktr.ee/dnvrsports MERCH: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dnvr-locker SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/DNVR_Sports Breck Brew Ice Deck Giveaway: http://breckbrew.com/icedeckMonarch Money: Use Monarch Money to get control of your overall finances with 50% off your first year at https://www.monarchmoney.com/dnvr UC Health: Learn more about Living Like There's A Tomorrow at https://www.uchealth.org/tomorrow/?utm_source=DNVR&utm_medium=Audio&utm_campaign=Brand_LLTIAT_Null_JFMFY25_AW_Null If you want to learn more about inspiring patient stories from UCHealth, you can head to https://uchealth.org/tomorrow to learn what it means to live like there is a tomorrow. Visit Your Front Range Toyota Stores at a location near you - Toyota is the official vehicle of DNVR.

Men's Basketball vs Auburn - Sweet Sixteen Starts at 1:00 It's times like this that make you think of Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem Ozymandias which has a passage about "when you're leading by 9 points with 12 minutes left don't give up a 20-2 run". Michigan made Auburn as dumb as Michigan for a half and then Auburn remembered they were the #1 overall seed. Michigan gives up 1.04 ppp overall. Turnovers were tied but Michigan was obliterated on rebounds. The season-long issues with the front court came to light in this game. This ended up being what you would expect in a game of Michigan vs Super Michigan. We'll miss Vlad Goldin, Craig has some nits to pick.  2. Looking Back on the Season Starts at 21:51 Dusty May comes into a roster with Will Tschetter and Nimari Burnett, most of his FAU squad doesn't follow him (besides Vlad Goldin). But he assembles this motley crew of a team. The question coming in was "can he assemble a good roster or did he just have one good recruiting class?" Turns out he can assemble a good roster. Brian hoped this could be a 6-seed coming into the season and people thought this was crazy. They probably should've been higher than a 5-seed. This season earns an A for exceeding all expectations, not an A+ but an A. Dusty May was the better choice over Niko Medved.  3. Hot Takes and Looking Forward to Next Season Starts at 42:43 Takes hotter than whatever Craig is about to say. Michigan loses Rubin Jones, Jace Howard, Vlad Goldin, Justin Pippen, and probably Danny Wolf, You now have a roster cap of 15, they can be scholarship or not. They'll be looking for centers in the portal. Get ready for an L.J. Cason glow up. Looking ahead to Trey McKenney as a freshman. If Sam Walters was going to hit the portal, wouldn't he have done it by now? There appear to be a lot of high quality centers in the portal. Transfer portal targets, Brian wants Magoon Gwath. What's the ceiling for next year? They'll finally have some continuity on the roster. Just find a guy who's 7 feet tall and put him on the roster.  4. Michigan Football Spring Practice and Hockey Starts at 1:26:08 The only QBs available are Bryce Underwood and Jadyn Davis, Mikey Keene is injured. Otherwise we're not hearing much of anything. Shamari Earls is supposedly turning out and is Charles Woodson sized. There will not be Jeremy Clark slander. Michigan hockey had a disappointing end to the season, how will they bounce back? How much will Michigan pay for hockey after football and basketball? What does the rest of the Big Ten look like? MUSIC: "Cradle The Pain"—Morgan Nagler "Back to Earth"—Manplanet "I Wish"—Skee-Lo “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra    

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Gophers men's hockey team, which neither made its own luck nor received any good fortune in the third period and overtime of a 5-4 NCAA tournament loss to UMass that ended their season Thursday. Was their passive approach or officiating to blame? Two things can be true at the same. Rand also dives into the Twins' opener and their brave new world of television, which included some good and bad from their 5-3 loss. 13:00: La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for their weekly debate segment. In focus this week: Niko Medved, Twins predictions and the Wild's playoff push. 35:00: A great win for the Wild and a good win for Gophers women's basketball.

Justin Michael gives his instant reaction to the introductory press conference for Ali Farokhmanesh. He talks about what stood out the most and why this was a unique day. He also plays an interview with Nique Clifford where the Rams star gives some thoughts on Farokhmanesh getting the job, what his two years meant to him, his advice to Kyan Evans and Jaylen Crocker-Johnson and more. Justin plays Ali's responses to the press portion from the roughly 30-minute press conference. He talks about the future of the program as well. Intro 0:00Instant Reaction to Ali presser 1:40Nique Clifford on Ali Farokhmanesh 11:30Ali Farokhmanesh presser 17:00What stood out from what Ali/Weber said 27:20CSU coaching staff coming together 50:20Final Thoughts/Questions/Comments 58:00 An ALLCITY Network Production PARTY WITH US: https://thednvr.com/events ALL THINGS DNVR: https://linktr.ee/dnvrsports MERCH: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dnvr-locker SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/DNVR_Sports Breck Brew Ice Deck Giveaway: http://breckbrew.com/icedeckMonarch Money: Use Monarch Money to get control of your overall finances with 50% off your first year at https://www.monarchmoney.com/dnvr UC Health: Learn more about Living Like There's A Tomorrow at https://www.uchealth.org/tomorrow/?utm_source=DNVR&utm_medium=Audio&utm_campaign=Brand_LLTIAT_Null_JFMFY25_AW_Null If you want to learn more about inspiring patient stories from UCHealth, you can head to https://uchealth.org/tomorrow to learn what it means to live like there is a tomorrow. Visit Your Front Range Toyota Stores at a location near you - Toyota is the official vehicle of DNVR.

Chip Scoggins, Ryan Burns and Justin Gaard are back to preview their April 12 event at Jax Cafe and spend much of the show this week talking about the Niko Medved hire and what it says about Minnesota's commitment to basketball. They also talk about what they expect the revenue share model to look like at the U and what that can mean for all the programs that will be sharing the money. Burnsie also gives us an update on a nice recruiting win for PJ Fleck.

Justin Michael goes live to give his thoughts on Colorado State hiring Ali Farokhmanesh as Niko Medved's successor in Fort Collins. Justin explains why believes it's worth the gamble of hiring somebody without head coaching experience and the importance of trying to keep the culture of the program intact. Justin then talks about what comes next including roster retainment, staff building, etc. Finally, Justin gets into Nique Clifford's rising draft stock and the importance of pass catchers emerging for CSU Football in 2025. 0:00 Start1:00 Ali Farokhmanesh named Niko Medved's successor19:55 What's next?34:09 What's next?

Host Michael Rand starts with Niko Medved's opening news conference. He came off as a genuine person and certainly didn't shy away from how much money it takes to win in college basketball these days. But the big question came late: Will you play St. Thomas? He seems open to it, which is a good thing. Plus, former Gophers coach Richard Pitino reportedly is on the move, too. 10:00: Star Tribune Twins writer Bobby Nightengale joins to talk about the season, which starts Thursday in St. Louis. Plus an update on the sale of the team and TV plans. 35:00: A loss for the Wild has made their playoff position a bit precarious.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Timberwolves, who lost for the third time in four games. While this one was more forgivable in result (at Indiana), the style of play and focus lately have been lacking. It's a bad development for a team trying to fight for a playoff spot. Plus the Wild also lost. They have a very tough week coming up. 11:00: Star Tribune columnist Chip Scoggins joins Rand for a breakdown of why the Gophers hired Niko Medved as well as an examination of where the money is going to come from as athletic budgets venture into new territory. 26:00: A finalized Twins roster reveals a couple surprises and one big issue.

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil recap the incredible CSU and Maryland March madness game and how great of a season Niko Medved had in Fort Collins. With Medved now on his way to Minnesota, what is next for CSU basketball? We debate if the final shot for Maryland was a travel or not and if we wanted it to come down to a final whistle. We react to the Broncos holding a second meeting with Texas tight end, Gunnar Helm, the former Denver high school product. We break down his skill set and what he could bring to the Broncos. Would it make sense to draft Helm even though the Broncos signed Evan Engram in free agency? We wrap up the show with what the guys learned in Denver sports.

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover. The guys discuss the quarterback carousel of the Broncos between Peyton Manning and Bo Nix. Who was the best quarterback for the Broncos during the down years?
