And now Chris Williams Derek “The Spreadsheet” Callahan 🏫 Team: Saint Peter’s Peacocks ⭐ Position: Graduate Forward 📖 Backstory: A former finance major who spent more time tracking KenPom metrics than practicing post moves. Walked on as a senior “for fun”… and somehow never left the rotation. Known for setting the slowest screens in college basketball history and communicating defensive rotations like a middle manager running a quarterly review. 🔥 Iconic March Madness Moment: Elite Eight. Underdog Peacocks clinging to a 1-point lead. Opponent’s star drives the lane with 5 seconds left. Callahan doesn’t jump. Doesn’t swipe. He simply plants his feet… closes his eyes… and absorbs the contact. Whistle blows. Offensive foul. As the arena erupts, Derek calmly pulls a folded scouting report from his sock, checks off a box with a tiny pencil, and nods to the bench. Announcer call becomes legendary: “He just took the most prepared charge in NCAA history!”

In honor of today’s 2GNC I created player profiles for both @Hassel_Chris and @ChrisMWilliams Here is Hassels!!! 🏀 Player Name: Tyler “Ice Veins” McKenna 🏫 Team: Drake Bulldogs ⭐ Position: Senior Point Guard 📖 Backstory: A former Division-III walk-on who transferred and earned his spot the hard way. Known more for film study and leadership than raw athleticism, McKenna became the steady heartbeat of a gritty Drake squad that nobody expected to make a run. 🔥 Iconic March Madness Moment: Sweet 16 vs. a No. 2 seed. Game tied. 6 seconds left. McKenna dribbles slowly across half court — no timeout. Crowd roaring. Teammates waving for the ball. Instead… he points to the floor, calling for an isolation. Takes one awkward-looking hesitation dribble… defender bites. Pulls up from 28 feet — straight on. Nothing but net. As the buzzer sounds, he calmly turns to the stunned crowd, shrugs, and jogs to the locker room while teammates pile on behind him. 📺 The replay becomes an instant tournament classic — dubbed by announcers as: “The most casual game-winner in March Madness history.”

@Batch40oz Sundays @CyeOfTheStorm is gonna be a banger.

Man, @alec_busse sounds like the grumpy old man this morning. @Sean23Roberts @HeatherRadio @KXnO1stQuarter

@Hallywood_13 Thumb Thugs is what I call them.

😂😂😂 twitter finger Bob

@_AlexGookin @ryanhammer09 Glad your safe Alex lol

@ryanhammer09 i get that, but i will throw myself into traffic if TCU doesn't pull this out (I have them losing the next game)

I love how everyone gets upset when one pick in their bracket goes wrong *Brackets don’t get fully busted until your champion loses or you have final four/elite 8 teams lose 1st weekend* Also this is March, it’s gonna get busted at some point lol

@CyHeadington5 We made the Final Four in 1944

Can someone explain #feelslike44 I feel so out of the loop

Happy Birthday to one of the best. A great company and even better people. Have done a few @3BeardsMedia pods and we just love this place!

@KathyMathiesen @Sean23Roberts @3BeardsMedia is your hookup!! Check our tweet

@Sean23Roberts I thought I remembered that KXNO was doing a bracket challenge but can't find the link. Can you help or am I crazy.

Holy shit. Go Cyclones!!

@KyleGAdema @Batch40oz It’s not cheap that’s for sure!!!

@Batch40oz Right?!? And so inconvenient.

This looks like hell. I’m not even a sports bar guy. I want to watch March Madness at home, preferably by myself, with infinite drinks and food.

@coachhersom @cyclonefanatic @RandyPete Screwed us in Michigan

@CyGradCyDad @cyclonefanatic @RandyPete It is the 2000 team for sure, they lost a relatively close national championship game, unfortunately it was in the Elite Eight because the NCAA sucks 🤷‍♂️👍😁

Is this Iowa State’s best-ever men’s basketball team? Or was it 2000, 2001 or 2014? @RandyPete compares the Cyclones’ best teams and looks at what this year’s group could do in March. cyclonefanatic.com/2026/03/peters…
