Origin Story of Brian Scalabrine’s “White Mamba” Nickname, Rory’s Masters Moment & NIL Drama

The “White Mamba” himself, Brian Scalabrine, drops by to explain where his famous nickname came from, what his biggest career regret was and which current NBA team he deems to be “flawless.” Plus, why do so many regular people think they can take him one-on-one?? We try and help Scal find the reason and we get his thoughts on some of the other great white hoopers in the game today. Then, Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara talk about Rory McIlroy’s win at the Masters and come up with a list of other athletes that everyone seemed to be collectively rooting for. And finally, in today’s mailbag, we dive into the unfolding NIL drama between the University of Tennessee and quarterback Nico Iamaleava with some unique insight from Matt.
