S2E9 - Terrance Shannon's Return for Illinois Adds To An Already Bleak Big Ten Season

It's the much awaited return of Tommy Crimes! Things aren't getting any better for the Big Ten as Purdue, Wisconsin, and Illinois comfortably rest atop the conference while the rest of the teams struggle to survive on a night-to-night. The biggest story in the league is Terrance Shannon's return to the Illinois lineup amid an ongoing investigation related to a rape charge in Kansas, which becomes a grosser story with each passing week. The pod shares their thoughts on the situation and the duty that those who cover college basketball have when discussing similar situations. It's frankly not a fun topic, but a necessary one as it has major implications on the Big Ten race.

Did your favorite Big Ten team play two games this week? Chances are, they lost the road game but won the home game.

Chris and Babar also break down Purdue's upcoming week of road tests, the teetering status of Illinois and Ohio State, and discuss the viability of a Big Ten broadcaster's alternate career as a sommelier.
