Fresh off winning the 2025 NCAA National Championship, we welcome Alan Bratton, head coach of the OSU Cowboys, to the podcast. Coach Bratton and Coach McGraw discuss last week's championship at La Costa, and later share a trip down memory lane to the NCAA Championships they both competed and coached in, including the one they won together in 2006. Both coaches boast a championship laden pedigree, as two of the four head coaches to ever coach OSU men's golf. OSU men's golf is the only D1 program in the country to have had every head coach in their history coach the team to a National Championship. I hope after listening to the podcast, you can see why. Thank you for joining the podcast Alan!

Today's guest on Better Than I Found It is Austin native and former Baylor golfer, Matthew Perrine. Matthew played for Baylor from 2015-2018, was an All-American, set several school records, and was the 2018 Byron Nelson award winner, an award given to the most outstanding scholar-athlete of the year. His story starts before his time at Baylor, however, as he played junior golf against Will Zalatoris, Scottie Scheffler, and Jordan Spieth. He is a fantastic representative of our university, and I hope you enjoy listening to his story. Thank you for joining the podcast Matthew!

Joining us on Better Than I Found It this week is the assistant coach for the University of North Texas, Cory Churchman. Cory and Coach McGraw actually recorded this episode in person as they prepared for a youth golf camp. Despite working alongside Luke Calcatera, a podcast guest just a few weeks ago, Cory shares how his philosophies and ideas as a coach differ from the UNT head coach and how they have achieved synthesis and success in Denton. Cory also shares about the importance of his faith in his work, his perspective on the future of NIL money in college golf, and his plans for the University of North Texas. I hope you enjoy this episode. Thank you for joining the podcast Cory!

Welcome to the 250th episode of Better Than I Found It! It has been 250 straight Mondays, almost five years, since Coach McGraw and Mikkel first sat down in a recording booth over Covid to tell Coach McGraw's story, and we would like to thank each and every person who has listened to the podcast over the years. We especially would like to thank those who have been there since the podcast first began; we would not be here today without your support. On this special episode, Coach McGraw delves back into his "Stuff That Works" journal. He shares stories from the experiences and knowledge he has gained from professional golfers and coaches such as Jim Colbert, Mike Holder, and Claude Harmon III. Coach McGraw also shares his opinions on instruction, learning from your mistakes, and simply playing the game. I hope you enjoy episode 250!

Welcome back to another episode of Better Than I Found It, where this week Coach McGraw interviews former University of Texas golfer Marcus Jones. A native of Graham, Texas, Marcus was the number two ranked national junior golfer, just behind Tiger Woods. Because of his ranking he was often paired with Tiger, and he discusses that as well as the challenges of growing up a golfer in a small town with a 9-hole golf course and the large amount of players that come from Graham. A good chunk of their conversation centers around College Golf Fellowship, a ministry organization Marcus has been a part of for 15 years. His deep Christian faith shines through this interview, and I hope you enjoy. Thank you for joining the podcast Marcus!

As the Bears prepare for the Big 12 Championship, running from Tuesday April 22nd to Thursday April 24th, Coach McGraw takes a moment to share his experiences from the site of the tournament: Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa. From his father's time working as the assistant pro at the club to, watching Arnold Palmer and Jack Niklaus tee off at the 1970 PGA Championship, to the first time he played the course itself, Coach McGraw has plenty of experience with Southern Hills. I hope you enjoy listening to these stories as the Bears prepare to play the course for themselves.

Welcome to Better Than I Found It, Luke Calcatera. Luke is one of the great up-and-coming coaches in college golf. Currently in his second year at UNT, Luke found great success at the division two level, as he spent over 10 years at Arkansas Tech, his alma mater. Luke’s teams set a national record of five consecutive trips to the Elite 8, including when they won the 2021 division two national championship. Luke is a fantastic recruiter and I hope from this interview you see why his teams have had such success.

Today on Better Than I Found It, Coach McGraw again shares stories from his "Stuff That Works" journal. In this episode Coach uses his journal to illustrate the dedication required to be a professional golf player. Using his experience coaching a litany of players, from Kyle Jones to Rickie Fowler to Johnny Keefer, Coach exhibits the different paths players have taken to go pro. The shared trait all these players have, however, is that if you want to become the greatest at the game, you must be 100% dedicated to making your dreams a reality. I hope you enjoy this episode.

Today we welcome to the podcast the associate head coach of Notre Dame and former head coach of the University of Miami, Ohio, Zac Zedrick. As the coach of Miami for fifteen years, he led the Redhawks to the 2015 MAC championship. After he joined John Handrigan in South Bend in 2021, the Irish qualified for the NCAA Finals for the first time since 1967. He has coached multiple All-Americans over the years and I respect the way he carries himself both as a person and coach. Thank you for joining the podcast Zac!
