Longest college basketball podcast effort of the season in this edition, and it had to be. There was plenty of ground to cover with Journal sports writer Bill Koch and Nick Coit, the sports director at ABC6 and the weekend co-host of Cordischi and Coit on WEEI.

Brown athletic director Jack Hayes steps down (1:30) and Providence works overtime against Marquette (10:10). URI wins two straight (35:45) and Bryant returns to action this weekend (55:10).

Also an extended look here at NCAA chances in the market (51:45, 65:40) and the coaching carousel beginning to spin (72:05). Expect to hear Bulldogs coach Jared Grasso mentioned with the opening at Fordham. (Koch and Coit agree -- politely decline, move on.)

Thanks to all who tune in. Hope this finds you safe and well.
