We start with a few quick stories in celebration of John Blalock's birthday. Next, Brock Huber checks-in for the sports page (13:47). We cover Dan Campbell's eventful early tenure as head coach of the Detroit Lions, how one NBA franchise has managed to miss the playoffs for 15 consecutive seasons, and what the NBA should do about teams losing games on purpose to manipulate playoff seeding. We also give some early predictions for the NFL season.
And then Ben LaCroix returns to the show for this week's featured conversation (35:01). This month marks the 10-year anniversary of the Class of 2011 graduating from Gardner-Webb. In addition to Ben and I, members of that Class include former podcast guests Kyle Lanning, Andrew Veeder, Taylor Doolittle, Blake DuDonis, and Thomas Cannon. To commemorate the occasion, we look back on some favorite college memories and reflect on the ten years since graduation.
