The Hurricanes won an NCAA Tournament game for the first time in eight years this past week against St Mary's before falling to Texas in a great game on Sunday. We pay tribute to the 2007-08 Cane seniors Ray Hicks and Anthony King who helped the rebirth of Miami Basketball after the blight of Perry Clark as well as discuss the battle at Running Back in Spring practice: Will Shawnbrey McNeal overtake Graig Cooper? Gregg Rodes joins us to look back the NCAA Tournament for the Canes and look ahead to Canes Fest this weekend.

The Hurricanes five season NCAA Tournament drought is over. The Canes are seeded 7th in the South Region and face St Mary's this week in the first round of the big dance. Nate Skinner, a UM student whose knowledge and understanding of College Basketball is unparalleled joins host Kartik Krishnaiyer as we look back at each Miami player's season and look ahead to what Miami must do to defeat a very good St Mary's team on Friday in Little Rock.
