About this episode

SVP and Stanford Steve recap championship basketball, discuss Michigan's win over UConn, and preview the Masters.

SVP and Stanford Steve are here to recap a weekend of championship basketball. First, Michigan gets it done beating UConn in a game that the Huskies just didn’t shoot well enough. The guys discuss what led to Michigan’s win and if the championship should be celebrated. Plus, what a career for UConn’s Alex Karaban and thoughts on Dusty May scouting Illinois-UConn. Then Steve gets into his experience watching the Women’s Final Four in Arizona, including incognito In-N-Out trips, sweet victory for the youngest and some interesting Tesla experiences. SVP also touches on Geno’s words and actions regarding the spat with Dawn Staley. Additionally, SVP breaks silence on the potential of the guys moving to the 5 p.m. block on ESPN before getting into a Masters preview. SVP & Steve discuss who they like to wear the green jacket Sunday at the 90th edition at Augusta National. | SVPod Time Codes/Topics (0:00) Intro (2:07) The CBB portal is absurd (3:32) SVP is LIVE from firm Augusta (6:32) Big Texas has become a thing (7:22) National championship recap (14:47) Final Four recap (18:22) Should Michigan’s title be celebrated?
