Blue Ribbon College Basketball Podcast, Ep. 101: Taking Big 12 with our buddy Rich Hollenberg of ESPN; open season on the top five; another coaching legend steps down—are NIL and the portal to blame?

In the newest episode of the Blue Ribbon College Basketball Podcast, hosts Chris Dortch (@cdortch) and Kevin Ingram (@KIngramSports) discuss a variety of college basketball topics:

• Chris and Kevin talk about the big target on the backs of top-five ranked schools, four of which lost in a three-day span this week.

• The last time we recorded our podcast, three unbeaten teams remained in Division I. Now, there are none. Chris was there to see one of them, Ole Miss, lose its first game, and Rich saw Houston, the final unbeaten, go down at Iowa State.

• Rich gives his thoughts on the Big 12 present and future.

• Don’t look now, but the Mountain West is the best league in the West.

• Alabama football coach Nick Saban joins a growing list of basketball coaches (Roy Williams, Mike Krzyzewski, Jim Boeheim) who have retired in recent years. Are NIL and the transfer portal driving out these legends?
