Come meet Minnesota point guard DeAndre Mathieu, a former walk-on and JUCO transfer who is now flourishing in Richard  Pitino?s system - all while honoring a friend. Also, track the long and winding road taken by Champaign native Rayvonte Rice, who wound up at Illinois as one of the leagues? top scorers.

We also follow Nebraska assistant coach and Australia native Chris Harriman, who is helping Nebraska rebuild its basketball program while his son Avery battles leukemia.  We will also have extended highlights from Ohio State-Nebraska and Wisconsin-Minnesota this past week.
