Come hang out with us after every Indiana basketball game, and every Thursday night, as our team of hosts -- Jerod Morris, Andy Bottoms, Ryan Phillips, and Brian \"The Coach\" Tonsoni dissect every angle of IU basketball, as we've been doing since 2011. We are equal parts unabashed fandom and objective analysis, with plenty of laughter along the way. If you're looking for knee-jerk analysis and hot takes, this is NOT the show for you. But if you want a show that isn't afraid to critique play while always staying supportive of players, then this is the place for you.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-16T14:20:39.348827+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-assembly-call-iu-basketball-podcast-and-postgame-show-1078880"},"episode":{"title":"[1106] IU-Miami College Football National Championship Postgame Show","slug":"1106-iu-miami-college-football-national-championship-postgame-show","published_at":"2026-01-20T21:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-assembly-call-iu-basketball-podcast-and-postgame-show-1078880/1106-iu-miami-college-football-national-championship-postgame-show","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-assembly-call-iu-basketball-podcast-and-postgame-show-1078880","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jerod-morris/episodes/1106-IU-Miami-College-Football-National-Championship-Postgame-Show-e3l1bj1","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/113fb3e5c/podcast/play/121728033/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-5-19%2F426475900-44100-2-efdccfa8f0c0299b.mp3","summary":"Indiana defeated Miami 27-21 to capture the program's first-ever national championship and cap an improbable 16-0 season.
