It’s a special episode of Free Hoops today, with just one sleep left between you and the NIT Final Four. If you’ve been following our seven-part NIT Final Four preview, you know that this is Part IV, with Parts I, II, and III coming in blogpost form, Part V coming later today, and Parts VI and VII on their way tomorrow. (Part VI will be another Free Hoops episode. We’re keeping the people on their toes.)
Again, this is Episode 10 of Free Hoops, and it’s Part IV of the seven-part 2025 NIT Final Four preview. Write all of this down. There will be a test.
I’m joined today by a record-setting four guests, each of whom knows one Final Four team particularly well. In order, we’ve got…
- Rocco Miller of The Bracketeer, talking UC Irvine
- Hank Dickenson, the voice of the Mean Green, talking North Texas
- Dave from the TalkinBlers Podcast, talkin(g Loyola Ram)blers
- Jack Gold from Two Bid SoCon, talking Chattanooga
Here are the links:
A huge thank you to Rocco, Hank, Dave, and Jack for taking the time, and a huge thank you to you for listening. If you’re also a reader (today’s readers are tomorrow’s leaders, you know), here are the other parts of the preview:
- Part I: The Programs
- Part II: The Schools
- Part III: The Coaches
- Part IV: Free Hoops! (expert commentary)

God bless you all, and God bless the NIT.
