This week we are joined by CBS Sports  Jon Rothstien, the host of College Hoops Today with Jon Rothstein. Jon talks about his early freelancing days covering High School Basketball to eventually  working at ESPN Radio.  Jon tried to get into sports commentary but found it difficult when trying to find advertisers for his radio  show after graduating college . He remembers a car dealership owner asking if Joe Torre was going to be on the show and declined advertising with him because he wasn't! John discusses what the Big East conference is today and how it is not the powerhouse it once was. Chris begs to differ! Tune in!

When you think of college basketball, what comes to mind first? If it's The Big East Conference, then you're right. Basketball lives in New York City — from the Bronx to Brooklyn to Madison Square Garden, you can't look anywhere without seeing a basketball fan who loves the sport more than anything. If you love the game, you'll love hearing about it from former player, coach, and now CBS Sports analyst, Chris Walker. Tune in weekly with Chris as he breaks down games, chats with friends, and talks the love of the game.
