Who would be the first pick in a Big Ten Draft?
If it?s Friday, that means it?s time for my weekly survey. This week, I asked seven Big Ten writers the following question: If you had the first overall pick in a Big Ten draft, who would you select?

They're back! Don't forget about these Big Ten players
Everyone knows about the talent the Big Ten returns to the hardwood this winter. You know, the Adreian Paynes, the Gary Harrises and the Aaron Crafts of the world. Not everyone, perhaps, is aware of the starpower the conference also welcomes back from season-ending injuries. Northwestern's Drew Crawford (labrum), Penn State's Tim Frazier (Achilles) and […]
