    Anyone been to West Lafayette?

    Lafayette/W Lafayette is the worst B10 city by a fair margin- stay in Indy if you can.

    BTN Big Ten Hoops Preseason Power Poll

    I think they have NW ranked way too high; I would put them in the category with PSU and Nebby.

    How bad would Wisconsin beat us?

    They would absolutely maul our defense- Norm could stay up all night for a year and could not overcome the difference in talent. Our offense would score pretty well against them, too. I'd say 45-21 Wisky give or take a TD.

    What type of football do you like?

    Something different than we saw last Saturday.

    Why can't we recruit?

    I think it is several things- we are not in a big state with a lot of local recruits, I don't think we have a lot of salesmanship on our staff and that is what a lot of recruiting is about, we play vanilla O and D which is not attractive to a lot of 18 year olds, and we are in a cold weather...

    rivals rankings

    If you want pretty accurate evaluations of FB recruits; Rivals is good source. BB, not so much.

    MNF

    This matchup probably only has about 5 people watching. I hate baseball, but watching it instead of this MNF. Wonder how many networks would like to change their schedules now that there is no Peyton.

    MaxPreps ranks Iowa's 2012 class 17th in nation

    Their ratings don't seem to make a lot of sense- don't have Gessel rated at all and have teams with only 2 recruits- both rated lower than Woody ahead of iowa.

    Wes Washpun - internet fodder

    yes, TN has cracked down; they have adopted the new SEC standard- you have to be able to either read or write.

    Big 12 taps the breaks on Longhorn Network's high school football coverage

    I wonder what ESPN is thinking about this- they are funding the Network and now 2 of the most attractive things that the Network was going to carry(HS games and B12 Conf games) are a no-no. I wonder whether they have thoughts of backing out.

    I really hope this isn't true...

    I think this is probably true. I think KF and DJK frustrated each other to no end. DJK appears to be a good guy, but a free spirit. Kf is a great guy but very regimented and extremely stubborn; mixed like oil and water.

    Bruce Weber to Oklahoma???

    Wier one- why would he want to leave, and why would Okie want him?

    Hyde To Safety?

    Can't believe Miller and Hyde will be playing same spot- I'll bet they are the 2 staters at S.

    Predictions for the 2 scholarships?

    What about Archie's ship? Do you think he will be back, or maybe Fran brings in 3 this spring?

    Painter to Missouri

    Maybe that is true about their AD's hard line. I guess that is why they got the FB coach they have and why they suck at most other sports.

    Painter to Missouri

    If this is true, PU AD should be fired. Painter has done the same kind of rebuild @ Purdue as KF did at Iowa. Can't imagine that our AD would let KF go for that kind of deal.

    Theory of why Lickliter failed or We hired the wrong Butler coach

    One of the key reasons that Lick failed was the inexperienced staff he put together. How Barta did not monitor that is amazing to me because 7 years earlier Alford made the same mistake. Plus Lickliter did not have the Alford name which did help with people like Recker, etc.

    Texas got hosed bigtime

    I officiated years ago, and the rule then was that you can't call TO after 4 seconds, I guess it has changed. I agree there was contact on Brown's last shot, but very rarely is that called at that point unless it is really major. On the other hand, Brown shot a lot of free throws in the game...

    Gatens-Zero Points in 2nd half

    Notice a little different approach to recruiting- Lickliter never ventured farther than Minnesota. If Fran gets Cezar and Meyer- his first 4 recruits will be from NY, GA, and 2 from California. That is what it is going to take to rebuild from the disaaster of the last 3 years.

    Would you rather have Barta or Bowlsby?

    Bowlsby was a complete pro; he made a few mistakes as we all do; Barta looks good in a black blaser.
