Last month, we announced that InsideNU will be partnering with the Northwestern News Network's Emmy-winning show, SportsNight, to bring you highlights and analysis from a different medium. Each week, we'll have an InsideNU writer on SportsNight to provide analysis of the week's biggest events. This week, we had Kevin Trahan on to talk about the Chris Collins hiring. Check it out below, along with highlights of other sports from the past month.* You can also watch the show and more from NNN on their website, and be sure to follow @nnnsports on Twitter.
*Typically the show will just cover the past week's events, but this episode also covers the Big Ten men's and women's basketball tournaments, because it was the first one filmed since NU students got back from break.
