D Hoop University

By: Darrell Harris
  • Summary

  • Hosted by the one and only Dhoopster.

    Life talk largely boiled down to basketball, wrestling, fantasy football or whatever conversation needs to be had.

    The show's title is a reminder to always be humble enough to have a student's mindset - one that is willing to learn, while putting in the work that produces desirable results. (...also glorifying college nostalgia and kicking it with some of your Day 1's)

    Thank you for listening.
