The NCAA tournament rolls on, and who better to join us than a guy who's seen it from every angle: player, champion, coach? Everybody welcome Danny Manning, Kansas alum and current Wake Forest head coach.

We start off with a postmortem for Kansas, where Manning won a championship and where his son now plays. (2:00 mark). From there, we talk about the relative strength of the ACC in this year's tournament (6:02 mark) as well as his perspective on Kentucky coach John Calipari's one-and-done style of recruiting (9:58 mark). "If we're going to play against them," he says, "we may as well have them on our team." We close with a look back at "Danny and the Miracles" and the lessons he's learned from coaches in his career (15:12 mark).

After Manning heads off into the Demon Deacon afternoon, we continue on with discussion that ranges from the strength of tourney weekend 1 vs. tourney weekend 2, second-favorite teams, '90s-era caps, losing your sports memory once you get older, and much more.
