    We have any schollies left

    Not sure where they're at with scholarships but I did see an article that said they are still in the running for two of the visitors from the big recruiting weekend they had a couple of weeks ago. One was a D-Lineman from Texas who was down to Iowa and Texas Tech. The other one escapes me...

    ESPN Layoffs

    The head of Disney just committed to the job through 2026. He mentioned that they would take a hard look at the legacy television properties that they own and whether they were a good fit going forward. So ESPN may we be sold in the near future, even after the latest round of layoffs.

    Fitz In The Pitz

    They are going to go with an interim coach for this year. It is expected to be the new defensive coordinator (someone who hasn't been around the hazing). They'll name a permanent coach after the season.

    Fitz In The Pitz

    I agree with this take. Mike Wilbon from ESPN is a Northwestern graduate and a current trustee of the school. He thinks that since they'll get somebody in there to rebuild it. He said that he has taken calls from coaches who would be interested. We'll see who they get. I personally think...

    Fitz In The Pitz

    For all we know the same details could have been in the investigation (and probably are). The NW administration just chose to not release it and hoped it would all blow over. Now they're being pressured to release the details. Could be a very bad look for them. And the president only started...

    Fitz In The Pitz

    You have to wonder what the leadership at Northwestern was thinking when they announced a two week suspension on Friday. They obviously didn't read the situation very well. What a quick turnaround and it doesn't reflect very well on them either.

    From Big Red Lifer to Hawkeye TE

    Great story Rob. I love it when we recruit Nebraska kids. And it's even better when they have success, as we've seen. This staff has a pretty good track record in Nebraska.

    Fitz In The Pitz

    This story has much more detail about what went on than the original story that I read. And it puts it in a much different light. Not good....

    Fitz In The Pitz

    The story that I read said that they had not even concluded that the coaches knew about the hazing. This looks like a penalty in search of an infraction. I couldn't care less about NW or Fitz but this does not seem to warrant any more than the two-week suspension that he received.

    ESPN Layoffs

    There are some surprises on this list but none more than their entire first-string lineup for NBA games. I don't watch much NBA in the regular season but do towards the end of the playoffs and Breen, Van Gundy and Jackson were good. I think this is emblematic of the cord cutting that has...

    Deontae Craig Embraces Being Veteran Player

    I hope you're right. I think the D-Line can be equal or better than last year and same with the D-Backs. Where I think there could be a slight drop off is at LB. Not because this year's guys aren't competent or even quite good. It's just that Jack Campbell was a once in a generation player at...

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    I don't think Boise is headed anywhere, at least yet.

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    I think this is the case. The B1G is holding out for Notre Dame, then they'll figure out the last addition (North Carolina?) to get to 16 and stay there.

    If it's on Twitter it must be true right?!

    This has been out there for a while. The initial word on the street was that the accident was still under investigation. As I said, that has been a while. But I have not heard anything definitive that said that Jack was at fault. There is a lot that we don't know.

    Trevor Lauck Looking to Help Hawkeyes

    If he plays that is a problem. I hope he's the next Tristan Wirfs but if he's not, he'd better be redshirting or at worst, filling in for an injured player. As mentioned above, we have enough guys that who have been through the wars last year. Offensive line is one of the positions where...

    Big Ten 2024 schedule

    It kind of makes sense. They are a relative newcomer to the B1G so they don't have any long standing rivalries. Maybe Maryland? Their designated last game of the year was Michigan State. Yawn. Other than that, they seem to give Ohio State and Michigan fits from time to time but would you...

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    Time will tell. I do think most of the schools prefer to stay together. The PAC 12 has much higher academic standards and geographical fit. They just want to be in the same ballpark money-wise. I do think Colorado is much more likely to bolt than AZ.

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/37814890/pac-12-presidents-solely-focused-tv-deal-expected-soon Here is another article that explains pretty well where the PAC-12 is currently at. A quote from the president of the University of Arizona: "My prediction is that we're all going...

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    What moves Arizona and Colorado do or don't make will depend on what the PAC 12 media rights deal looks like. If they get somewhere close to what the Big 12 just negotiated, they might be able to keep all of their present teams and add a member or two (San Diego State). The negotiations have...

    Colorado, Arizona to Big 12?

    The Big 12 is trying to become a supreme basketball conference in the football driven world of college athletics.
