In this 13th episode Dev and Matt talk about a number of topics from the virus and how it canceled the state high school basketball tournament, how CO hoopers are fairing at the college level, and we end with the All Basketball Colorado team. 

It has been one of the weirdest and surreal weeks in history because of CoVID-19. The effect this virus has had touched our small corner of the world with the state basketball tournaments canceled.  We got this recorded this podcast on Wednesday before CHSAA announced that it was banning fans for the tournaments but then walked the decision back to  4 guests per player and then ultimately canceling the whole thing Thursday night.    
On a brighter side Neil Devlin the former long time prep writer for the Denver Post and now the SID for Mullen High School joined Dev, Matt, and Ryan for 80 great minutes of Colorado High School Basketball Podcast sponsored by Ziggi's Coffee.

To add to the weirdness of the week, unfortunately Matt's audio vanished  so there is some dead air but the other three guests can be heard. Just assume the everything Matt said was spot on, picked all the winners, and as always was the best one on the show. LOL. Seriously though Neil was a great guest.
