Prater and Mallory talk to former Boise State golfer Troy Merritt, now a veteran on the PGA Tour, where he finished in a tie for eighth last week.

Prater and Mallory are joined by NBA/Wizards reporter Chase Hughes of NBCSports Washington, who shares his view of former Boise State star Chandler Hutchison and his journey through the league. Hutchison has been hot-cold on the court, taken personal time, has been traded, and Hughes reports that he plans to make his story public one day.
