All aboard the One and Done train for a deep dive into the Big Sky conference! After a historic season that saw the league rank 15th in the country, Jay Heinrick and Mike Holland are back to break down what to expect from this 11-team conference. From realignment shifts to massive roster overhauls, we are covering everything you need to know before tip-off.

In this episode, we categorize every team into our signature tier system: the Foundation, the Mid-Tier, and the High-Tier. We discuss the impact of new additions like Southern Utah and Utah Tech, while analyzing if programs like Montana State can maintain their dominance after losing key pieces. Whether you are a die-hard alum or a college basketball enthusiast, this preview provides the scouting reports and coaching insights necessary to stay ahead of the curve.

We take a close look at the coaching changes at Weber State, the high-scoring potential at Portland State, and why Eastern Washington remains a major threat in the title race. Plus, we debate which mid-tier teams like Idaho and Northern Colorado have the best chance to crash the party at the top of the standings. Join us as we chop it up and get you ready for another year of Big Sky basketball.
