Listening to this pod reminded me of the first time I spoke to Tasha Brown about the mind gym three years ago - was fascinating to revisit this story and see how long the wheels of UCLA’s title run have been in motion www.nytimes.com/athletic/432...
Kymora Johnson withdrawing her name from the Transfer Portal and returning to UVA is so awesome! Coach Roussell and staff are off to a great start.
A lesson in media relations, players’ privacy, within the context of the question that was asked to Azzi Fudd about her and Paige Bueckers’ relationship. @acoach4thecoach.bsky.social and @jsteyz.bsky.social get into all of that, and more.
