Welcome to the debut episode of The EvanMiya College Basketball Show. Evan Miyakawa is joined by John Fanta (NBC / Peacock) to break down a pivotal week in college basketball, including Michigan’s shocking home loss to Wisconsin, Nebraska’s improbable 16–0 start, and how the national title picture is beginning to take shape. The conversation dives into true championship contenders, early one-seed predictions, and why experience and roster continuity matter more than ever in the portal era. Evan is also joined by Greg Waddell of Sleepers Media for an in-depth Michigan deep dive, analyzing the Wolverines’ defensive dominance, lineup construction, volatility, and outlook in a brutal Big Ten race. The episode wraps with Analytics Corner, featuring efficiency tiers, resume quality, opponent-strength adjustments, and the best five-man lineups in the country.
