Episode 431 — South Carolina’s Lamont Paris

South Carolina’s Lamont Paris is making headlines leading the Gamecocks’ to a 17-3 start in his second year as head coach. How his cool, calm and collected demeanor has lead to success in a power conference. Why experience and maturity have been key factors. Why he wants to keep a good balance of transfers and home grown talent to sustain program success. How program culture factors into winning basketball. The influence Bo Ryan has on his coaching philosophy and style. Previewing a tough matchup with Tennessee. And why staying the course and keeping a chip on their shoulder is paramount to a possible NCAA Tournament bid. Plus, we are starting to see separation at the top of the sport. Discussing an exciting slate of games this week. And is there a real possibility the ACC only gets two teams in the NCAA Tournament if Clemson does not finish strong?
