On this week’s episode of Live From West End, Sports Editor Henry Oelhafen and Sports Podcast Producer Tristan Rutman are joyous to return to the studio after a long break away. They kick things off with a recap of Vanderbilt’s loss to No.23 Iowa in the ReliaQuest Bowl and the implications of some transfer portal departures. The duo then moves into some basketball, where the men’s team toppled South Carolina in its first game of SEC play. The two preview the Commodores’ upcoming game against No. 13 Alabama on Wednesday night before transitioning to women’s basketball, which defeated Arkansas and then-No. 5 LSU to open up conference play. They close out the episode by buying and selling stock in different SEC teams in Tristan’s Two-Minute Drill™.
