Trent and Tim are back from a wild weekend in Bloomington! We kick things off by discussing the massive changes around town (and the baffling Andrew Davis ad campaigns) before recapping the chaotic, crash-filled finish to the Men's Little 500. Then, we hit the gridiron to break down Indiana Football's Spring Game, the newly announced Halloween Homecoming, and the "Red Out" strategy for the Ohio State game.

Plus, we debate IU's massive recruiting weekend, review where our Hoosiers landed in the NFL Draft (as Trent rubs his mock draft victory in Tim's face), and break down Coach Bryant Haines' late-night deleted tweet. Finally, we cover major national news, including former IU QB Brendan Sorsby entering gambling rehab and the NCAA's proposed "5 and 5" eligibility rule.
