Which was the biggest moment/story to not make the list? How many countries listened to EOCBB in 2025? What's your favorite pod-related memory from the last 363 days? There's tons to get to! Have a Happy New Year, and if you'd like to send any year-end thoughts about the show, feel free to send us a note: ShoutsToCBS@gmail.com

It’s a full mailbag episode as we answer listener questions from across the country — mixing college basketball history, current storylines, and a little chaos along the way.
We dive into coaching “almost took the job” stories, the future of early-season conference events, the most intriguing teams right now, and how many programs can actually win the national championship. Plus: Michigan State’s contender case, ACC tourney math, blue blood debates (hello, Florida), and Virginia’s Ryan Odom era.
There’s also plenty of fun: hypothetical matchups, travel routines, airport rankings, Memphis tips for an 8-year-old, linguistic debates we probably shouldn’t have, and more.
We close with the Final Four and 1, previewing Winthrop–Texas Tech, UL-Monroe–Kansas State, Saint Mary’s–LMU, Gonzaga–Pepperdine, and a sneaky San Francisco–Seattle game.
Mailbag chaos, college hoops insight, and classic GP & Norlander — all in one episode.

On today’s show, we preview a big weekend in college basketball, starting with an early look at the CBS Sports Classic. We break down Kentucky-St. John’s and North Carolina-Ohio State, and discuss what the spotlight could mean for Jayden Quaintance IF he takes the floor in a showcase event he grew up watching ( ... or so GP says).
After the break, we dive into a Dribble Handoff focused on the SEC, debating who’s best positioned to win the league, whether Vanderbilt is a legitimate title contender, and which SEC teams—if any—have a real chance to make a run at the national championship.
We wrap things up with The Final Four And 1 presented by FanDuel Sportsbook, breaking down four of the weekend’s biggest games, including St. John’s vs. Kentucky, Ohio State vs. North Carolina, Houston vs. Arkansas, and Duke vs. Texas Tech. Plus, the And 1 spotlights a key Mountain West matchup as Colorado State visits Utah State on CBS Sports Network.

Parrish has turned into the biggest asshole. I cheered against Memphis just because of him. Unsubscribed from all channels
Tom Crean brother get in touch it have news on Little ceasers 🍕 you won't like i was the DM for a couple
I have loved this podcast, but am getting driven away by the constant dive into political arguments. If I want to listen to politics I’ll subscribe to another show. Please quit ruining your show.
believe you all made a mistake on returnees for Kentucky. Brooks has announced that he is coming back.
They will be recognized for being the no.1 team for the regular season per their AD.
Parrish, has finally jumped the shark wasting over 20 min. on Kentucky coach, you are not a credible journalist, but a gossip girl mench ! wait til playing is over to waste the listeners time !!!!
in the midsts of 100's of important games, the 2 so called professionals, you, are droning on over Zion like everyother stupid scab ! But dude, " It means instant Hits, right ". Boo, lame, March Bla ....less !
Really enjoyed your podcast up until today. I did not subscribe to hear your opinion on national anthem protests.
go back to the old music intro. new one stinks
