The Wake Up Call w/KB & Andy

It was four decades ago that the Baltimore Colts left Maryland for Indianapolis. Then second year coach Rick Venturi joined the Wake-Up Call with KB and Andy to give a firsthand account of that night.

We’ve all been there…one of these tourney games gets underway and immediately you see you’re on the wrong side of the action. It’s what makes the tournament great but also maddening. In particular for this year, most brackets were busted because we saw so much “chalk” the first couple days. Sometimes it feels like we […]

Is Indianapolis doing enough to help Anthony Richardson in year two? Kevin Bowen and Andy Sweeney debated this during the Wake Up Call.

The future of Purdue Basketball looks bright as young players are making an impact in the NCAA Tournament.

Tick Tock. No, not a misspelling of the social media app that I still don’t fully grasp.  That’s the time ticking on the Pacers season and the meaningful chances they have of turning it around. There are 20 games remaining in the season and the Pacers currently sit at 34-28 and in the 8th spot […]

Colts General Manager Chris Ballard has his ear to the ground at the NFL Combine as he and the rest of the front office do their due diligence to assess the 2024 NFL draft class and see what pieces will be the best fits on the roster. On Thursday, Ballard joined the show to expand […]
