We’ve formed a superteam for this week’s episode of ‘The Young Man and the Three’: Duncan Robinson, Ryen Russillo, and Big Cat. They start the episode with Russillo recalling some stories from the beginning of his career before they get into a discussion about NCAA basketball, starting with Big Cat’s huge bet on Florida’s National Championship. They then have an in-depth convo about the current effects of NIL and how that landscape might develop in the future. Then, Duncan explains the truth about Heat Culture, what it actually is, and if it can compares to any organizations in other sports. Duncan and Ryen then get into the recent firings of Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone and Memphis Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins, and share interesting perspectives on what goes into these decisions how the media can possibly affect them. Later, they discuss tanking in the NBA and what it takes to build a successful franchise, before Russillo closes with his life advice to finding your way in a media career. Let’s go.
