Welcome back to another episode of the three-man-weave college basketball podcast.

0:13.7

I am your host this week, Jim Root.

0:15.5

I'm joined only by Matthew Cox.

0:19.1

Kai McEwen is abroad.

0:21.2

We'll get in that in a second.

0:22.6

It's just us, Matt.

0:24.0

It's a two-man show here,

0:25.4

two-man weave,

0:26.1

doing the big 10 conference.

0:29.0

14 teams,

0:29.8

so we got time for 28 back and forth takes, right?

0:32.1

We're good.

0:33.5

Yeah, I think we just need more breathing room,

0:35.4

more elbow room to spew our very unbiased and highly passionate takes on the Big Bad 10 Conference.

0:42.9

Jim from your Badger Ball Corner and myself from my Hoosier ball corner.

0:48.0

I did consult with some of my IU fellow friends, alumnuses for, I'm just going to copycat their takes, Shem.

0:54.1

I'm actually not going to give any of my own takes.

0:55.5

It's like when right before you're going to have a baby, you go on one last vacation and kind of, you know, the couple gets to enjoy each other. Reset your mind a little bit,

1:44.8

get back in that Zen. Okay. Into it. Hey, hey, it's about to be all about the baby. Let's enjoy each other. Well, it's all about to be all about the season. So kindly and are getting back in touch with each other. That's, you know, credit to them. Not us, not, not, not Matt and I. We are still grinding here, ready to talk Big Ten Hoops,

2:02.0

the heartland of Hoops. But before we get into that, shout out to Jay Pity for that beautiful
