AJ & Richie invited to combine | Notre Dame spring outlook | Predicting TV and kickoff times for BYU football games

We kick off the month of May with news around BYU basketball as AJ Dybantsa and Richie Saunders were invited to the NBA draft combine. Everyone knew Dybantsa, the potential No. 1 pick, would go to the combine, but Saunders, coming off a season-ending injury, speaks to the interest in the former BYU star. Mitch also dives into the former BYU players who have found new landing spots in the transfer portal. Then on the flip side, he looks at the future BYU basketball players, as one recruiting service has the Cougars 2026 recruiting class in the top-10. The BYU football spring opponent tour rolls on. On this episode, Mitch chats with Eric Hansen of Blue & Gold, part of the On3 network, to get a breakdown of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in 2026. BYU hosts Notre Dame for the first time in Provo since 2004, when the Irish travel to LES on Saturday, October 17. It's a matchup of the highest-ranked non-Playoff teams last season. Then, finally, Mitch closes out the show giving his television and kickoff time predictions for early-season and weeknight games for BYU football in 2026.
