Creating something innovative can be quite the challenge in the oversaturated world of college basketball coverage, yet that’s just what Bill Ricci did this year when he started The Friar Podcast.
Ricci, a Providence native and class of 2014 PC graduate, has found a way to turn his passion for the Friars into something completely unique. Ricci has provided a forum for former Friar players, current media, and those working in the athletic department to share their stories about what Providence’s program has meant to them.
What I love most about his podcast is how much I’ve learned about men like God Shammgod, Jamel Thomas, Kyron Cartwright, Marcus Douthit and several others who have appeared on the pod since it debuted in late-November.
