The college basketball national championship game is in the books, and there is a bit of a connection it could have had to Tennessee basketball. Caleb Calhoun and Dave Hooker dive into both the Vols and Lady Vols basketball programs on Off The Hook’s Tuesday, April 4 podcast. Blake Toppmeyer joins to talk SEC football, and more UT quarterback news made the show.

Could they ever land San Diego State head coach Brian Dutcher?
