In this Memorial Day edition of Y’s Guys, hosts Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler honor those who have served while breaking down critical updates in BYU sports. The episode opens with a recap of quarterback Jake Retzlaff’s uncertain status following a civil lawsuit and what that means for BYU Football heading into fall. The crew explores who might step in—McCae Hillstead, Treyson Bourguet, or Bear Bachmeier—and how the offense can adapt, especially with key returners like LJ Martin, Chase Roberts, and a dominant O-line.
The show also covers BYU’s latest football commit, 6’4", 335-pound defensive tackle Alvin Puefua, who chose the Cougars over Miami, Utah, and Arizona. The team discusses ESPN’s Top 30 quarterbacks, where Retzlaff still lands at No. 17, and what to watch for in BYU’s early schedule: Portland State, Stanford, and East Carolina. They also dive into the new College Football Playoff format, which now rewards the Top 4 teams regardless of conference affiliation.
On the basketball front, AJ Dybantsa is invited to USA Basketball’s U19 training camp, and BYU’s updated non-conference schedule includes exhibition games against Nebraska (Oct. 18) and North Carolina (late October at the Delta Center). The show also celebrates the Marriott Center’s Top 10 national ranking for arena atmosphere and highlights Delaware at BYU (Nov. 11) as the first regular-season matchup.
The show wraps with updates from spring sports: Men’s Golf pushes for a top-8 finish at NCAA Championships; Softball’s Ilova’a Brittingham is named a Freshman All-American; Track & Field heads to the NCAA West Prelims with both teams ranked in the top 7; and Baseball finishes a strong Big 12 tournament run. Other features include the launch of the “Y’s Guy for a Day” fan contest, this week’s inspirational quote from John Wayne, and a look at BYU’s upcoming summer calendar.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
