LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- It's National Film Score Day, and this week's Overtime starts with a cinematic twist. Before diving into Final Four picks and portal chaos, Rick Bozich and Eric Crawford take a moment to appreciate the power of movie music — from the stirring intro of Hoosiers to Rocky's iconic run up the steps.

"If I could play 'Gonna Fly Now' behind every coaching search and portal update, I would," Eric says.

From there, the gloves come off — figuratively — as Rick and Eric go the full 12 rounds with the latest in college hoops, horse racing and coaching carousel drama. Here's what's on tap in this week's episode of Overtime on WDRB+:

🔥 PORTAL POWER: Kelsey Scores Early

Louisville head coach Pat Kelsey isn't wasting time. He's already landed two of the top 10 players in the transfer portal: Adrian Wooley from Kennesaw State and Ryan Conwell from Xavier. Both are dynamic guards and both could be difference-makers for a team that's suddenly drawing Top 25 buzz. (Note: After the episode was taped, Kelsey landed another Top 10 guard when Virginia’s Isaac McKneely committed to the Cards. He led the Cavaliers in scoring last season at 14 points per game and led the ACC in three-point percentage at 42.0).

What's next for Kelsey's roster rebuild? Rick and Eric break it down.

🏀 MEN'S FINAL FOUR: First-Time Dreams

It's San Antonio time. Four coaches — none with a national title — lead their teams into the Final Four. The stories are rich. The stakes are high.

Who's the best team? And who has the best shot at a "One Shining Moment" of their own?

👑 WOMEN'S FINAL FOUR: Who's Next?

The women's side is just as intriguing — maybe more so. In Tampa, it's a showdown of basketball brands: UConn's tradition, South Carolina's dominance, Texas' resurgence and UCLA's breakthrough.

Which team takes the crown — and which storyline steals the spotlight?

😬 WILLARD'S EXIT: Coaching Carousel Chaos

Kevin Willard once played at Western Kentucky and coached under Rick Pitino at Louisville. Now he's under fire for how he handled his exit from Maryland to Villanova. Alums like Scott Van Pelt have been vocal, and the optics haven't been pretty.

Rick and Eric ask: Was this the most botched coaching departure in recent memory?

🧬 PITINO TO XAVIER: Family Feud Brewing?

Richard Pitino is headed from New Mexico to Xavier, landing in the Big East alongside his father, Rick, and other heavyweights like Danny Hurley and Shaka Smart.

Could this set the stage for a future Louisville-Xavier matchup? With Pat Kelsey's Xavier ties and Richard's Louisville roots, it's a clash waiting to happen.

🐎 ROAD TO THE DERBY: Santa Anita Showdown

It's a huge weekend on the road to the Kentucky Derby, with the Santa Anita Derby leading the way. Top contenders Citizen Bull (trained by Bob Baffert) and Journalism (Mike McCarthy) are set for a high-stakes duel in a surprisingly small five-horse field.

Rick and Eric give their picks and talk Derby math — including why the Santa Anita winner will walk away with just 75 points instead of 100.

🗞️ WHAT WE MISSED

The guys also touch on some rapid-fire headlines:

  • The McDonald's All-American Game
  • Another DeVries heading to Indiana
  • Ongoing Torpedo Bat fallout?
