MAC Bandwagon Podcast, ep. 80: The contenders begin to establish themselves

Happy Friday folks! We hope you’ve all been able to stay warm as dog days of winter have descended over the Midwest. As the temperatures have dropped, the competition on the hardwood has really started to heat up!

The boys kick off the show this week with the surprising news of Jermaine Jackson, Jr. leaving Central Michigan to begin preparing for a professional career. Jackson was the Chippewas leading scorer this season at 11.4 points per game. CMU was already struggling in coach Tony Barbee’s first season, and it will be interesting to see how the Chips are able to bounce back from the loss of one of their few offensive weapons.
