Good afternoon and welcome back — again — to the LIVE! Report from Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Scott Richey (that's me) back at it from courtside, albeit it a third different spot in three days. It will have to be a really wayward rogue basketball or basketball player to end up in my lap, though. The Big Ten stuck me and former coworker Mark Tupper of the Decatur Herald & Review in the corner.
It seems Illinois has no interest in going back to Champaign, having completed the first two stages of its push for five wins in five days to capture the Big Ten tournament crown.
