Chris Dimino calls Georgia's 102-77 loss to St. Louis 'gutless' after an 18-0 run.
1. The Program's second half moves from Houston to Phoenix to Atlanta, using local voices to cover March basketball, NBA roster questions, and spring baseball.
2. Matt Thomas, Luke Lipinski, and Chris Dimino appear as the local radio voices for Houston, Phoenix, and Atlanta, which matters because each segment leans on market-specific context.
3. The hour asks whether Houston, Arizona, and Georgia Tech can stay relevant while bracket pressure, NIL money, and roster churn keep rising.
4. Thomas says Houston beat Idaho 78-47 and expects Kelvin Sampson's team to handle Texas A&M next.
5. He describes Kingston Fleming as a one-and-done freshman and says Miles Ouzan and Manuel Sharpe have adjusted around him.
6. Thomas says Sampson's "poor program" comment was really about needing cash to keep pace with Kansas, Arizona, and the rest of the Big 12.
7. He says Houston will probably lose at least two players to the NBA draft and still tries to reload every offseason.
8. Thomas backs Kevin Durant as the scoring answer Houston lacked, pointing to 51 points from fifth on the NBA's all-time scoring list.
9. He says the Rockets are sliding toward a road-heavy playoff path because the Lakers, Denver, and San Antonio have beaten them up.
10. On the Astros, Thomas says Josh Hader and Bennett Souza are manageable losses because Brian Abreu, Caleb Ort, and the rotation can absorb the innings.
11. Lipinski says Arizona looks like the bracket favorite, especially with Duke's region looking harder than Arizona's.
12. He says Arizona and Michigan feel like the two clearest title contenders and he picked Arizona in his bracket.
13. Lipinski says Tommy Lloyd is under pressure because Arizona has not reached a Final Four since 1997, even if fans still think of it as a blue blood.
14. He says Bobby Hurley leaving Arizona State opens a wide search, unlike the cleaner Kenny Dillingham football hire.
15. Lipinski says Gardner Minshew's arrival surprised people and that the Cardinals may still draft a quarterback in the third round, while Georgia Tech's Scott Cross hire comes with a $2 million, five-year deal.
16. Dimino says Georgia's 102-77 loss to St. Louis included an 18-0 run and was "gutless with a capital G U T L E S S."
17. The Houston and Phoenix conversations sound like straight radio interviews, with quick jokes followed by roster, bracket, and coaching analysis.
18. The Atlanta segment sounds harsher and more repetitive, with Dimino hammering Georgia's effort and then pivoting to Georgia Tech, Chris Sale, and Ronald Acuña Jr.
19. March Madness fans who follow local college programs.
20. Listeners wanting non-sports coverage or narrative storytelling.
