When in the Valley of the Sun, it's always good to talk to someone who knows the place well. Like JERRY COLANGELO.

The former Illini basketball and baseball player owned the Phoenix Suns and Arizona Diamondbacks. At 5:25 p.m. today, Colangelo will be a guest on WDWS' "SportsTalk with Scott Beatty."

There are endless topics for Colangelo, including his thoughts on the third Illinois Athletics Hall of Fame class. Colangelo was a member of the inaugural class in 2017. The current group includes basketball standouts DON FREEMAN, EDDIE JOHNSON and DEON THOMAS.
