As a lifelong Indiana fan, Podcast on the Brink, and Inside the Hall are my go tos for IU coverage. Alex does a terrific job on the podcast, has interesting guests and is fair and balanced. I particularly like the episodes with his Dad, Rick, who is a gold-standard hoops writer in Kentuckiana. Acorn didn’t fall far from the tree with Alex.

After listening to a variety of podcasts covering Indiana University basketball, it is clear that Podcast on the Brink is by far the best. Alex, the host, has been covering IU basketball for over 18 years, and he does a great job of interviewing a variety of guests to discuss what’s currently going on with the program and to get their unique perspective. I always come away learning more about my Hoosiers than I knew going into each episode. Well worth adding these weekly podcasts to your playlist!

Enjoy the podcast. Alex is always prepared and has great guests to discuss Indiana and Big hoops.

This podcast is great! It releases consistently and has very concise and interesting IU basketball content! I love it!

Great content, great guests!

Strongly suggest you focus on asking questions and getting out of the way. Way too many caveats and long-winded questions when you answer the question before your guest does. We know what you think because you write a blog. We want more content and insights from your guests.

Dig it.

Alex is an OG of IUBB podcasting, and I have appreciated him and his guests for providing insightful commentary for many years 👍

Alex and his guest always deliver, always a great listen

Podcast on the brink is one of the most information podcast I listen to. It always offers fair analysis on many aspects of Indiana University basketball, as well as insightful information on the landscape of college basketball. A great listen for anyone who is a fan of IU, the Big Ten, or college basketball in general.

Love the variety of guests. Always a straight take. As a fellow Podcaster (Iconic Seasons) and IU fan I love the passion for IU Hoops.

I look forward to listening when I see a new podcast has been posted ! Keep up the great work

I’d listen to him talk about cricket. The man is measured, passionate, and interested— but most of all knowledgable. I feel lucky this show and his site exist. Not every fanbase has this.

This podcast has a lot of different guests from the student media department at IU. A lot of the interviews are from people who are finding their voice and trying to get on-air experience. They also tend to be journalists who are still learning a lot of the nuance of the sport. So, with that being said, this podcast is great for younger fans, or maybe IU students who want to learn about the team but aren’t Basketballheads, or maybe alumni who just want to casually keep their finger on the pulse of the program. There is a lot of wholesomeness and heart in this podcast. If you’re looking for wonky or hard-hitting Basketball analysis then there are probably a couple other IU basketball podcasts that would be up your alley.

Lacks excitement or enthusiasm for a fan base that craves it. Extremely conservative questions and answers that rarely push the guests or host to give real insight or opinion. For a team that some say has the most passionate fans, the host seems content to be safely in their comfort zone. Audio issues with voice echo. 3 ads per 30 minutes If you are looking for a IU basketball podcast that simple regurgitates information from Ken Pom and Torvik this is for you. You do not have to worry about any “Hot Takes” because they rarely give any takes other than basic roster updates and the occasional “it’s possible they win or lose” Gives off the vibe of simply providing an additional source of revenue for the website as opposed to a fun informative conversation about Indiana basketball. Recommendations 1. Be less monotone 2. Ask one question at a time so the guest and listener can follow slinger better. 3. Get outside comfort zone, Give real thoughts on lineup changes, recruits you want over others, teams that are 4. Actually fun Segments, like “insider news of the week, comparing players in different generation, best place to watch a game” Hosts seem content with taking advantage of hungry fan base by doing bare minimum. Other options to recommend would be 247 or assembly call or even Hoosier hysterics. Best of luck

Deep dive in all things IU Hoops without emotion. These guys know and live IU basketball. Great analysis from subject matter expert guests.

Really good IU basketball podcast. Bring in different guests and provide new perspectives!

Alex gets great guests and great insight from them. Conversations are objective and fair. One of my favorite IU podcasts.

Podcast on the brink is a great way to listen to guests and hosts talk about all things IU basketball. There’s an occasional “insider” nugget of information but mostly just passionate talk about a program desperately trying to regain the glory it achieved for decades.

I love all your great research and hard work on IU basketball. Although, when you interview your guests I feel like you need to just ask the question and let your guest answer. You seem to ramble and answer the question for them before they get a chance to give you their reply.The Brian Evans interview is a good example.Just food for thought and keep up the great work

Great guests and the latest info

Awesome show. Go Hoosiers

Great stuff here week in week out. Jerod and Alex do a terrific job covering IU basketball to help inform fans. Thanks for all the work, guys!

I love the show each week. I listen with my 10 year-old son. I really tired of Jeff Goodman’s casual swearing on his episode. Not necessary. Have a little respect. I know he’s not always on and have no complaints other than that.

More recruiting episodes would be encouraged

It would be awesome if he came on to the show.

My favorite podcast, cover Indiana basketball as you only can in INDIANA!

Jerod Morris does a great job of giving fun insight and keeping me informed even from the sunny beaches of Florida. When it comes to keeping up with what's going on with the program, this 1 of 2 podcasts I turn to. Would definitely recommend.

Great casual listening for IU basketball fans looking for news and discussion. Good hosts, and good guests, but not a lot of insider information a hardcore fan couldn't find elsewhere.

This is my favorite podcast.....followed closely by The Assembly Call. Alex and Jerod provide great insight and perspective regarding IU basketball. I enjoy the variety of guests they interview. Easily my first pick of all podcasts whenever an episode drops. Go Hoosiers!!

Great podcast with hosts that know what the Hoosier fans want! Great job Jerod & Alex

If you’re in Indiana basketball junkie this is a great source of news and opinions. Alex and Jerod are passionate, enthusiastic, bring in good guests to share their views and balanced in the reporting.

This podcast is a must for Indiana Hoosier basketball fans who are looking for intelligent and timely discussions about their favorite team. Through the years, Jerod and Alex have booked an impressive list of in-the-know guests who share insights into the program, the team and the game of basketball. Jerod is an excellent interviewer and it seems at least once every episode the interviewee pauses on at least one of Jerod's questions to say "That is a really great question." Alex and Jerod have clearly done their homework in deciding which guests Hoosier Nation would like to hear from and in preparing which questions to ask and how to draw out the most meaningful information for their listeners.

This has become one of my favorite podcasts. Good information and also very entertaining. I never miss an episode.

Great Stuff . Thanks

Jerod is a fantastic host. Alex, while not the most polished speaker, is quite informative about IU and the rest of the B1G. At roughly 30 minutes/week, it's a must-listen each week. Keep up the great work, gents!

It's hard to stomach all the question-answer-question format with your guests. You have guests on for their opinion. You could be extracting more insights and covering more ground if you don't insert anecdotes and stories and your own opinions right after asking your guests a question. As Dan Patrick says of a good interviewer, ask the question and get out of the way. Easier said than done but the good ones can do it. Until then, 3 stars at best.

Great stuff

Great content with great guests. Highly recommend!

Well produced IU basketball podcast that is always topical, insightful, and fair. Almost always an instant listen for me each time it loads up in my podcast feed.

Great podcast ! Don't miss an episode. My only question, how did chronic Hoosier gain notoriety, he's just a regular guy! Kidding.

Excellent interview.

Really enjoy it.

Long time listener of POTB and the Assembly Call. Love them both and will continue listening!

Excellent weekly coverage of IU basketball. Thanks for improving my daily commute!

I simply can't get enough of POTB. I look forward to listening to it weekly or even better binge listening if I have missed a few episodes. It is always great hearing about recruiting in the offseason and future projections. Keep up the great work! #goIU

Great stuff. I'm addicted. I especially like when the podcast features guests (although it's often nice to listen to Bozich and Morris just talk to each other for awhile) and when the hosts goof around or let themselves veer off topic occasionally.

Always a pleasure to listen to.

PTOB is one of my favorite podcasts! The guys do an awesome job of analyzing the each game and the state of IU basketball. I look forward to every new episode.

As a regular "Inside The Hall" reader and IU fan for 64 years, I enjoy "Podcast on the Brink!" Your knowledge of the IU basketball situations are great, interesting, and candid. Thanks for all your reporting.
