I heard on a podcast that McCaffery thinks there will still be a 20 game conference schedule plus the ACC/B1G Challenge, the Iowa St. game, the Oregon St. game in Sioux City, and a Hawkeye Challenge Tournament here in IC. He wasn't sure about the Gavitt Games. BTW, he also mentioned that his...

I probably have a different take on Bryant than many here. I actually feel badly for him. He has been a success at every level from Little League to the Majors and for him suddenly, for whatever reason, be unable to excel, it must be pretty frustrating for him. From his interviews, he seems...

Had to laugh at Nebraska's AD complaining about their B1G schedule. Boo Hoo, Bitch! You've got your savior in place. Let him work his miracles.

Might have been the highest bat flip I've ever seen. Now if we can get all the Cub hitters that are straddling the Mendoza line to the point that they can flip bats after a big hit, maybe we'll have something.

Gotta fire the manager!

As of today, the team batting average is a paltry .224. Only Pittsburgh and Cincinnati are worse. That ain't gonna get it done. Earlier this season, in a three game series at Pittsburgh, the Cubs scored 18 runs. So far in this three game series at Pittsburgh, they've scored 8 and that...

Being a Cub fan this year is quickly becoming a two edged sword. On one hand, they have led their division the entire season and should make the playoffs. On the other hand, they are the most anemic hitting team I've seen in a long time, getting shut out on a regular basis and seemingly leaving...

Lester obviously isn't what he was at his peak, but I wouldn't mind seeing the Cubs retain him. He is a tough minded individual and every team needs those

No problem. I didn't get a chance to watch all of his last start. Were the broadcasters saying he was retiring or just that his tenure with Cubs was over? I thought he had been pitching pretty well since he made some "adjustments."

Are you saying his "last" game at Wrigley? Maybe so. He won 76 games with the Cubs. Back when it seemed as though every move Epstein made for the Cubs turned out well, obtaining Lester was probably the best (with Arrieta being second). Ah, the good old days!

It really wasn't Warren's decision. If I remember correctly, the university presidents voted 11-3 to not have the college football season. Now I understand they will allow it to begin October 23rd-24th. Meanwhile, most other conferences are playing games. Pretty shortsighted, but university...

Don't mean to pile on Joe W., but wasn't he projected to be on the B1G First Team in the preseason vote? Most improved player would definitely be the award I would like to see him win after this upcoming season.

A walk-off hit batsman victory!.....What's next?

Their only hope is that Darvish and Hendricks continue to excel and they can get a few decent starts from Lester, Mills, and a cast of 100's. Maybe Alzolay will provide some help. It would also help if Bryant returned to some semblance of the perennial All-Star player we were so excited about...

I admit to not following the Cubs as closely this season as I normally do. I have watched a handful of games, but when they ran out to a 13-3 start and the announcers kept talking about history, I knew they were playing with fool's gold. They've hung on to first place all season but now, when...

The kid would have to be deaf, dumb and blind to be unaware of all the baggage surrounding Pitino. Obviously it's his choice, but if you're that good, why bury your talent at Iona instead of on the national stage that is the B1G?

Just another body blow to Iowa. Expecting a worst one tomorrow.

We older Hawkeye fans have been waiting since 1979 for a team to actually win a B1G Basketball Championship (not a BTT Championship). I thought this team had an outside chance. Now, it looks as though we won't even get a shot.

Won't make much difference if other teams don't and we continue to have this happen over and over before the season even begins. Doesn't fare well for even having a college BB season this year. BTW, the '87 team, as good as they were, finished third in the conference that season. The 2015 and...

Didn't Lute's second wife take him to the cleaners in their divorce?
