0:00.0	Hey there, it's Gary Perish. It's Tuesday, November 7th, 2017. Welcome back to the Iron
0:24.9	College Basketball Podcast. I got Matt Norlander with me and I supposed a big
0:29.2	story today in College Basketball originates at CBS Sports. I reported earlier
0:34.9	today that Ron Bell, a longtime friend of Joy Detect Coach Josh Passner, is the
