Wisconsin's Greg Gard has the Badgers off to a 14-4 start and they are scoring in a variety of ways. What has been the "secret sauce"? Why he believes they can get even better if they tighten up the defense. How experience has been a big factor along with a deep and balanced bench. How a loss to Providence in mid-November has helped propel them to where they are today. Discussing his philosophy on using the portal versus bringing in high school talent to develop. What type of "guardrails" does he think the sport needs around transferring? Why hasn't the Big Ten performed better in the NCAA Tournament of late? Thoughts on the Big Ten becoming a national conference. And why it's always about health coming down the stretch. Plus, Kentucky continues to stand out. North Carolina on a heater. And Purdue's Zach Edey continues to put up video game type numbers... Is he a lock for back-to-back National Player of the Year honors?
