Episode 55 • Legendary Mizzou basketball coach Norm Stewart once said helping him land star recruit (and budding broadcast student) Derrick Chievous was about the only good thing the Missouri School of Journalism did for him during his coaching career. But this podcast should count as two. In this edition of the Eye on the Tigers podcast, Mizzou beat writer Dave Matter and sports columnist Ben Frederickson revisit Chievous' rise to stardom as a Tiger before his number is retired during the upcoming basketball game between Mizzou and Tennessee. The two also talk Tigers hoops, men's and women's. And then the conversation turns toward a detailed breakdown of Mizzou's ongoing appeal of the NCAA sanctions handed down from the academic fraud case. Matter answers the biggest questions about the appeal, of which there are many.
