CT Scoreboard: BET Preview Pod with Mike Francesa

[gwhuskyfan]

Hi all,

Honored to have Mike Francesa join me to talk some Big East hoops heading into the tourney. He recaps the first two UConn-St. John's games, previews what he'd be looking for in a third, talks about Calhoun as one of the most underrated coaches in CBB history, and more. Audio only for this one.

I'm a former daily lister of Mike and before that with the Dog. I've felt like he's gone way downhill of late, but I have to say that I think he was good here.

This is in the realm of best guest ever, Jared. Great pull, great interview.

Thank you! Definitely on my Mt. Rushmore of guests. Now just need Mad Dog!

Haven’t listened yet, kudos Jared. Thats a feather in your cap even though Mike isn’t what he was in his heyday.

How did you manage to get him on, if you can say?

Can’t believe you got the pope!

I'll have to give it a listen. I remember watching CBS back when Mike was an in studio analyst for them in the early to mid 80's. This was well before Mike and the Maddog. Mike can be a tough guy to deal with but he has forgotten more about Sports than I will ever know. This is a great get for you. Congratulations!

Great stuff. I used to listen to him on my Metro North rides home from work and will occasionally listen to his podcast now. I’m not a horse guy so I tune those segments out but the guy has absurd sports knowledge.

Congrats!!!
