Episode Synopsis

The conversation of best active coaches without a national championship begins with Gonzaga's Mark Few. You won't get very far down that list, though, before arriving at Auburn's Bruce Pearl and Tennessee's Rick Barnes. They're career winners. They've been great for their respective universities. Each owns a Final Four appearance. But, they continually come up short of the top prize. This could be the year one of those two coaches gets off that list. On today's basketball-themed episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams reveal their Mount Rushmore of best active coaches without a national championship. They also make their picks to win this week's SEC Tournament. Neither host picks a sleeper team, but they disagree on which favorite will win the conference crown in Nashville.
