What is Summer Shootaround and when does the 2026 series start?
Midsummer is here. Think of the off season is back. And yes, summer shoot around time has returned here on the ion college basketball podcast. We did a thing a year ago where we did this PSA and it was me and GP going back and forth. Maybe it was scripted. Maybe it was off the top of our head. Regardless, he has already left for a vacation. I am not bothering this man to do this PSA about the shoot around.
How will the 15 predetermined school episodes and three auction episodes be structured?
So you're getting me solo. I'll make it quick here. We are doing 15 predetermined programs and we will have three predefined auctions with all of the money raised for those auction episodes going to charity so if you're a fan of one of these 15 schools guess what good news you're going to have a special summer shoot around episode landing at some point over the next six weeks in this feed in fact a couple of those are coming in just a few days if you do not hear your name of your school mentioned here upcoming then rally your friends and we will send you the link for the auction early and often in August. We'll make you all too aware.
Which 15 schools are confirmed for the 2026 Summer Shootaround?
Those are always fun ones to do, but here are the ones that are definitely on the books. Arizona, Arkansas, Yukon, Duke, Illinois, Florida, Kentucky, Louisville, Michigan state, Michigan, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Vanderbilt and Virginia. Those 15 are automatic. And then we will do three more additional bonus episodes. Doesn't matter how big the school is, how small the school is.
How will the bonus episodes and eligibility rules work for additional schools?
It's got to be a men's division one program. And yes, like usual, like always, all of the money that is raised goes directly to St. Jude's children's hospital. So yeah,
Where do the auction proceeds go and what special content can listeners expect?
Happy to have you back on board. We will have a couple of coaching interviews, including our first episode, which is coming later this week. But then we'll bring in some special guests. And GP and I, of course, will combo up for some of these as well. Appreciate you always for dialing in. Look forward to having you for our summer shoot around series over the next six weeks here on the pod.
