- 8-18: Glad We Didn’t Panicby Ryan Token & Matt Rechtien on January 27, 2026 at 2:40 pm
Matt is back from vacation so it is time to talk some hoops! The men have played a dominant four-game stretch with wins over Charlotte, UAB, Memphis and Rice, showing there was no need to start panicking after dropping two in a row to UNT and USF. We talk most about the Memphis and Rice wins, Memphis tears, and the big stretch the team has coming up (UNT, WSU x2 and USF).The women are back to trading off wins and losses, dropping a game against Rice at home before grinding out a tough win on the road against UNT. Fortunately they have a chance to get two home wins when they host FAU and Memphis this week.We also talk some portal updates, tennis and women’s golf.

Tulsa men’s hoops had the best start to a season since the Bill Self era. However, after losing two (2) more games, many are once again asking if Eric Konkol is the guy for the job. We discuss.Also: * Women’s basketball has won 5 straight and is 3-0 in The American with Mady Cartwright coming off the game of her life* The Tulsa Portal House is in full swing* What’s the deal with Ryan Switzer and Kevin Barbay?
