Adam joined Ed and Steve to talk about his recent story on Mike Lonergan the Head Coach of George Washington basketball and verbal abuse of his players.

Adam started off by talking about his recent story on Mike Lonergan and allegations of verbal abuse with his players at George Washington saying "the crux of the story was that in the 2015 season there was a player or a group of players who went to the school about language from Lonergan that they deemed abusive...the school met with him and eventually ended up clearing him."
