Sparky and Gary had a chance to chat with former North Carolina Men's Basketball head coach Matt Doherty on Friday's show! But the talk wasn't all on the Badgers facing the Tar Heels...

The recruiting aspect for any head coach is a challenge. What kind of skills and attributes are you looking for? Are you building a program that's built to last, or are you willing to accept that some players may be one-and-dones? If so, how much tougher is it to keep the pipeline full of talent?
