We have *finally* reached basketball season, and the NBN Pod celebrates by talking to William and Mary head men's basketball coach Dane Fischer.
First, we hold ourselves to five minutes on the JMU/CAA drama blowing up Twitter over the past week. With JMU leaving the CAA, what do we think of the decision to hold the Dukes out of conference championships this year (1:49)? Then, we quickly discuss Tribe men's player Thatcher Stone entering the transfer portal and why we think he made that decision (9:25). Then... it's time to preview some games!!! We talk about the men's matchup with Wake Forest Wednesday (13:54), the women's season opener Thursday at Coppin State (22:57), the men reopening the Kap Friday against American (28:16), and the women's home game vs. Randolph College (33:00). Then, we bring on Coach Fischer! We discuss how much the full offseason helped the Tribe as a young team, the newcomers and their role, and why W&M won't repeat its poor shooting performance from last year (34:42). We're so excited to see these teams in person this week, and hope it came through on this episode.
