Apple Podcasts3Danny JuarezUnited States4 years ago - Good Source for Illini Coverage
Some good Illini coverage If you can put up with Jim Rossow‘s constant annoying sarcasm. Not sure why Scott Rickey doesn’t just punch his lights out.
Apple Podcasts3Bad Bad Bad and more BadUnited States4 years ago - Insightful and Funny; must listen for Illini Basketball
Scott Richey is the goods - he's a great Illini basketball beat writer, in a long line of talent (Dawson, Klee, etc). Jim succeeds at adding some humor. A good albeit short show.
