Live from Indianapolis, Sophie Cunningham and West Wilson are back in the middle of March Madness®—breaking down Michigan vs. UConn, Final Four® vibes, and everything happening off the court that fans don’t see.

From hotel lobbies, pregame rituals, to Midwest fandom, and what it’s really like when teams travel during the tournament—this episode, recorded on April 6 before the Men’s Final Four® Championship, captures the full experience of college basketball’s biggest stage.

Then things level up with special guest Jay Williams—former Duke star, national champion, and ESPN analyst—who pulls up fresh off a full morning of live TV. Jay gets real about Duke’s heartbreak, Final Four® pressure, trash-talking fans, and the mindset that defined his career (“next play” mentality 👀)."

Plus:

Why underdog runs are getting harder (NIL impact)

Inside hotel life during tournament runs

Jay’s wild college memories + Coach Krzyzewski stories

The BEST (and pettiest) fanbases in college hoops

Travel routines, superstition, and life on the road

Real talk on the WNBA, growth, and why it matters

It’s hoops, culture, travel, and unfiltered conversation—exactly how March Madness® should feel.

Marriott Bonvoy is the official hotel partner of the NCAA, March Madness®️, and Final Four.
