Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Gumby was talking trash the other day...about new previews for the upcoming season. Last year we held it on October 7, 2020.
It was a combined preview (Nat'l & BE) and ran way long - nearly 2 hours. (Published on 13 October, 2020)

This season we will break the show into 2 shorter shows: provided we can get muzzles on Fanta and Novachap,
I've got a fishing line out for an additional national talking head. Some folks here showed interest in participating...(UConn folks and others)

One Nat'l Preview Show (30 mins maximum) Starts: 2:00 PM/CST (Central Time)

Participants: Jon Nyatawa/OWH Creighton beat, Ryan James/Gopher Illustrated, Prep Hoops, John Fanta, BE/Fox, Jack Daley, HLOH.
I'd like to get one other national guy and one other HLOH person. That way I can moderate, not talk.

One Big East Preview Show (30 mins maximum) Starts: 2:00 PM CST (Central time) (that's 3PM Eastern for youse NYCer's)

Participants: Jon Nyatawa/OWH Creighton beat, John Fanta, BE/Fox, Jack Daley, HLOH. + 2-3 others
I'd like to get one other national guy and 2 other HLOH persons. That way I can moderate, not talk.

If interested PM me here or @gtmoblue on Twitter.com. Email at indigdoc@gmail.com Jack (Novachap) + 2 additional HLOH folks would be great.

You know GTMO, when you first threw this out last year I thought you had drank to much of the kool-aid and had no chance of pulling it off. But you took a big swing for the fences and connected (and have again.)

Good for you!

UPDATE: 2021-22 Preview Shows:

Tentative Schedule - Sept 21st or 22nd, 2021; 2:00 PM Central Time (3:00 PM Eastern)
Two (2) 30 Min shows, back-to-back. Nat'l preview, then the Big East Preview.

Panel: Jon Nyatawa-Omaha World Herald, Ryan James-Prep Hoops/Gopher Illustrated,
John Fanta-Fox Sports/BE Shootaround, Jack Daley-Holyland of Hoops, Tristan Freeman-Busting Brackets.

Need 2 more HLOHers for panel participation. It's a painless process...and a lot of fun.
Just do what you normally do. With this larger panel, I can moderate and talk a lot less (yeah, right)!

Nat'l: Will review the aggregate Top 25-35 National Beauty Contest polls.
Agree or disagree. Which pundits are full of it, which are accurate? Who (teams) is Worthy, who is not. Who is overrated/underrated, etc.
Your Picks for the top of the Big 6 Conferences and conf. standings. Top conf Players/Newcomers/Frosh. Potential AA's?

Big East: Rinse and Repeat the above for the BE Specifically. + predict the BE Coaches Poll (lol).

If interested: PM me here or @gtmoBlue (twitter.com). Or email me at indigdoc@gmail.com .

PS: Attempted to get Corey Evans again. He is now with the NBA, OKC Thunder and cannot participate. Oh well, gave it a shot.

Watched it last year and look forward to it again this year

Is it youtube only? I'd rather just listen to it as a podcast, but I guess it's difficult to tell who is talking if you're involving a lot of people.

This was fantastic last year; lots of top notch insight. Very much looking forward to it again this year. Tremendous job Git! Will have to go back and watch the predictions from last year. I recall Fanta was high on the Johnnies and guessing Git picked the Jays to win the NC.

Gumby, I just MIGHT remind him about how hot he was on Marquette!

heh, heh, heh...

Yeah who was that? Marcus... omyGod...¿howard? lol

It's September already. Still need a couple of HLOHers who want to participate in the 2021-22 Previews.

Previews will be zoom calls. PM me here on HLOH if interested and I will PM you the zoom (connect) info.

Sept 21st Tuesday afternoon - 2 PM Central/3 PM eastern.
2 - 30 min shows (Max). Nat'l Preview followed by the BEast Preview. Short n sweet.
Panel thus far: Nyatawa-OWH, Fanta-Fox Sports, Daley-HLOH, Freeman-Busting Brackets, James-Gopher Illustrated.

Attempted to get a WC guy, no luck. Corey Evans is with the NBA & not available.

C'mon down. Dash, Fenway, Fieldhouse? Other?

Nat'l: Will review the aggregate Top 25-35 National Beauty Contest polls. Probably CBS 25+1 and Busting Brackets as others are rare.

Your Picks for the top of the Big 6 Conferences and conf. standings. Top conf Players/Newcomers/Frosh. Potential AA's? FF picks.

Big East: Rinse and Repeat the above for the BE Specifically. + predict the BE Coaches Poll (lol).
