Tristan Freeman (@hoopsnut351) joins Bob and Jim for another year to discuss the incoming transfers into the Horizon League, including some instances of Horizon-on-Horizon crime. They also discuss how ongoing litigation may affect at least a couple of these players, specifically Max Weisbrod and Orlando Lovejoy.
