## Resource

Today is "Turn the Page Tuesday," and the Texas Longhorns wrapped up. We shared our thoughts on the Fan Fest and players who stood out. The NBA Playoffs continued as the Raptors fell to the Cavs, the Knicks collapsed against the Hawks, and the Nuggets faltered against the Timberwolves. Both the Rockets and Spurs play tonight. The Longhorns softball team handled Georgio in their rubber match from this weekend's series. The Longhorns' baseball team is getting ready to play Air Force. Mark discusses ESPN and WrestleMania 42. "The World's Strongest Take!" Plus, we have Joe Cook of Inside Texas discussing the Texas Fan Fest, spring camp, and men's basketball transfer portal needs. We also have Tommy Yarrish of DallasCowboys.com to talk about the team's draft and offseason moves. "Voice of the Houston Texans" Marc Vandermeer joins us to talk about the Texans' draft and offseason. You can hear it all here on "The Morning Kickoff Show!"
