Hersh On Hoops

Eli Hershkovich and Brendan F. Quinn, who covers Michigan State and U-M basketball for The Athletic, discuss his start in the business and whether Chicago can become a college basketball-crazed city, Tom Izzo vs. John Beilein, his odd interaction with Izzo at Big Ten media day and the perception of the Spartans' program, how the college basketball trial could affect the sport, along with a Chicago AAU program's involvement in the case, and whether Illinois or Northwestern could exceed expectations.
