In Memory of Coach Kevin Curley

Written By Thomas Frank

A special re-release in memory of Coach Kevin Curley, who we lost this past summer to cancer. Kevin was a great college basketball coach and an even better man — the all-time winningest coach in McDaniel men's basketball history, older brother to our own Coach Greg Curley, and beloved by everyone who knew him.

Originally released April 21, 2024, as our Season 3 kickoff, this episode brought the Curley brothers together on the mic for the first time. Tom, Biz, and Coach Greg welcome Kevin — head coach of the McDaniel Green Terror — for a conversation that's equal parts basketball and brotherly needling: the origin of the "Green Terror" mascot, the NIL and transfer-portal era, Caitlin Clark and the women's game, the legendary scrimmage locker-room story, and plenty of playing-days reminiscing. It's full of the humor, competitiveness, and warmth that defined him.
Kev, this one's for you.
