I am very happy to share that we are in the final stage of editing the podcast series on the 2003-04 Friars. I listened to our first episode this morning, and really think Providence fans will enjoy this deep dive on what was a very good team.
Billy Ricci (of the Friar Podcast) and I spoke with four members of that team — Ryan Gomes, Donnie McGrath, Sheiku Kabba, and Marcus Douthit — as well as assistant coach Bob Walsh, to discuss how that team was built, the turnaround that began the season prior, and to break down the season in great detail.
This was something that we had hoped to release before Labor Day, but neither Bill or I had been involved with a podcast that involved editing over six hours of interviews, and we underestimated how long it would take to finalize. It has been quite an undertaking, but also a lot of fun at the same time.
I think Friar fans will appreciate the candor of all of our guests. Here are a few clips in the meantime.
