On Saturday, News-Gazette Media's TIM DITMAN will go live on the News-Gazette Facebook page with a behind-the-scenes look at our radio operation on an Illini football game day.

Ditman will take us from the pregame show (around 9:15 a.m.) to BRIAN BARNHART's call eight stories up at Memorial Stadium (11 a.m. kickoff) to dealing with passionate postgame callers (around 3 p.m.).

Anything you'd like him to highlight in his daylong project? Email your ideas to tditman@news-gazette.com.
