This edition of Pound the Talk features Henry Bushnell and Josh Rosenblat, both editors emeritus at Inside NU. They are joined by current co-EIC Tristan Jung and discuss the men's basketball NCAA Tournament run, some football, random Twitter questions, tennis, soccer and The Bachelorette. It's very good, I think.

Pound the Talk is back and this one is about as action-packed as it gets. Your host, Will Ragatz, is joined by Caleb Friedman to recap a wild couple of days in Northwestern athletics and preview the big event of the weekend. They start out with reaction to and analysis of the long-term contract extensions signed by Chris Collins and Pat Fitzgerald, move on to discuss Boston College basketball transfer A.J. Turner choosing the Wildcats (14:35) and wrap it up with a breakdown on all of Northwestern's NFL Draft prospects before the spectacle kicks off in Philadelphia on Thursday night (25:50).

This week's Pound the Talk is here for your listening pleasure. Will Ragatz is joined by Tristan Jung and Josh Burton to break down the seasons and big picture outlooks of Northwestern's two biggest spring sports, as well as talk some basketball (it's still hard not to). To start, Tristan provides his takes on the lacrosse team's up-and-down season and what the outlook is for the rest of this season and beyond (0:45). Then the guys provide some hard-hitting analysis on Tristan's ridiculous Northwestern coaches Royal Rumble article from yesterday (12:30). After realizing they should talk about some actually substantial things, they move on to a discussion of Northwestern baseball and Josh expains that the team needs to show more signs of improvement this year with a potentially bright future not too far away (15:35). Finally, they wrap things up by discussing Northwestern basketball being ranked in many websites' way-too-early top 25s, where they would rank NU for next year, and what variables will determine whether the Wildcats can live up to that hype (29:45).

Although the metaphorical rock was broken earlier this month, Pound the TALK is back and with plenty to talk about. Will Ragatz is joined by Chris Grismer and Zach Wingrove to break down all things Northwestern basketball. The guys hand out season awards (0:50) and recap Northwestern's NCAA Tournament run by talking about the Vanderbilt game (7:25) and the Wildcats' up and down performance against Gonzaga (11:35). They also analyze the 2017 Big Dance as a whole (20:30), including the Big Ten's solid performance, and give some Final Four predictions. Finally, they wrap it up by looking forwards to next season (28:10), projecting the teams at the top of the Big Ten title race (35:30) and discussing the baseline for success in what will be a much-hyped 2017-18 campaign (40:00).
