  • Smart IU talk

    Love all the guests. Love the insights. Am a subscriber to ITH. I have a friendly suggestion about your interview style: Often you ask a simple question and then spend a minute explaining (and sometimes answering) it before you ask it again and finally let your guest answer. Just ask a question and then follow up with the nuance and caveats after your guest responds. Thanks!

POTB 570: Looking ahead to the 2026-27 Big Ten basketball season with Dylan Burkhardt (part two)

Q: What role does the backcourt play with the new frontcourt pieces?
Burton remains the primary creator, with Lindsay providing floor spacing and shooting to complement him, which should help relieve pressure and open driving lanes.
