"The ability to coach guys hard, you have to have that relationship before you can." Iowa head coach Ben McCollum joined the @PatMcAfeeshow after defeating Nebraska to move on to the Elite 8 in the NCAA Tournament 🏀

Bill Raftery remains a March Madness staple at 82, sounding as sharp as ever behind the mic. From “Onions!” to “With a kiss,” his signature calls still define the tournament as he handles a full slate of marquee games.

Competitor. Leader. Winner. G-Mac is home. 🍊

"I can be out of coaching next year. I'm 73. I wanna have the greatest time of my life. I want to coach this game like it's the last game I'll ever coach. But I also appreciate the blessings I've been given by being allowed to coach this long" - Rick Pitino
