Ep. #61: John Cunningham and PGA Championship Preview

One of the great leaders in college athletics, University of Cincinnati athletics director John Cunningham hopped on the pod with the guys this week. John talks about his journey in college athletics, the growth of Cincinnati Athletics and transition to the Big 12, his love of golf, and his game that is described as "you have way too good of a swing, you should be a much better golfer." He also talks about Cincinnati's thriving men's golf program that is playing in the NCAA Regionals and the new state-of-the-art indoor golf performance center constructed in an office building near campus.The guys celebrate National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, their favorite cookies, and best emergency cookie purchases. They wrap up Bella McCauley's historic NCAA Regional performance and berth in the NCAA Finals and talk about Ben Warian's hot start to the NCAA Regional in Michigan.They preview the PGA Championship held at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y., which recently underwent a major restoration from noted architect Andrew Green. The PGA was given to Oak Hill when they expected it to be held in August, adding intrigue to how the course will fare in Mid-May in upstate New York. They talk about who they look to emerge toward the top of the leaderboard. They discuss the top LIV players, how they will fare, and the odd finish of the LIV Tulsa event where the CW cut away for sitcom reruns during the playoff between Cam Smith and Dustin Johnson.
