Respect for Karl-Anthony Towns; hate mail from a Lions fan; Marcus Fuller on Gophers basketball

Introduction: Host Michael Rand gives a long head nod to
Karl-Anthony Towns. The Timberwolves big man was named an All-Star
for the fourth time in his career on Thursday, an honor that
perhaps means more this time after all he has been through in the
last 18 months. Given that Rand was convinced KAT needed to be
traded before the start of the season, an acknowledgment of Towns'
terrific season is in order. 7:00: Star Tribune Gophers men's
basketball beat writer Marcus Fuller joins the show to talk about
Saturday's big game against Northwestern, the emergence of Parker
Fox and the new Big Ten Tournament format. He also gets into some
St. Thomas basketball talk. 27:00: Jim Harbaugh wants to live in an
RV for a while; Rand runs through some listener comments, including
one Lions fan who was VERY upset about Monday's show.
