Welcome to the Big Ten Q&A, a new weekly feature aimed at interacting with you, the reader, so that we can all help the offseason move along a little faster.
The format is simple: You ask the questions, and I'll do my best to provide the answers. Each Thursday this offseason I'll take your inquiries for the next day's mailbag, which you can send my way on Twitter at @BenAxelrod.
Feel free to keep the questions light-hearted, interesting or pick my brain about the upcoming season so that you can shove my surely wrong prediction back in my face later this year.
