The OFFICiAL announcement...
Jim McIlvaine and John Scott Lewinski return with the men's lifestyle podcast, Marq'd Men. This week, they sit down with veteran college basketball and NBA coach Kevin O'Neill, one of the faces who saved Marquette Basketball from obscurity in the 1990s. The interview is free-wheeling, candid, NSFW and recommended for those 13 and older.
Special thanks to the Blue Microphones, Samson Microphones, Marquette University Basketball and Optima Batteries.

Then, the UNOFFICIAL missive...
Big Mac and John sat down with KO for three hours. You'll hear one of those hours. The other two were off the record. Though I'd love to share everything we talked about during that quiet time, we honor our word to our guests here.
I can tell everyone here who gives a damn that...
- My belief is he and his guys saved Marquette from becoming Holy Cross or Fordham.
- To put in his vernacular, he still m*therf*ckin cares about m*therf*ckin MU and wants to see them m*therf*ckin succeed, m*therf*ckers.
- There is more to him leaving MU than its fans know, and it will stay that way. In short, there's two sides to that story.
- He attended the Creighton game in a cap and sans-glasses. Very few recognized him, and he wanted it that way.
- Sitting with him and talking basketball during and after the Creighton game was an honor and an absolute education.
Thank you for listening and take care.
