After an extended hiatus, IMS Radio is back and it didn’t take long for the conversation to hit full speed!

Jeff Ermann, Paul Douglas and Tony Wheeler reconvene to break down a whirlwind stretch for Maryland basketball, where roster movement has dominated the headlines. Transfers in, transfers out, reshaping the identity of the program—it’s been nonstop, and the group dug into what it all means for Buzz Williams’ first full offseason at the helm.
