    BT Tournament

    They are well coached and defend hard, even on perimeter. They are fundamentally sound. As sound fundamentally as anyone. They get all they can from what they have. Iowa does not play all that fundamentally sound. OSU is not as fundamentally sound as W or Nebby for that matter. OSU is...

    Kris Murray 1st-Team All-B1G, Rebraca 3rd-Team

    Thx for doing what I wanted to do, but didn't. Looking at the rankings, that would put him something like 5th best outcome (averages) among all draftees and on the 6th best team. Kings got their money's worth on Keagan. Plus I just would tend to believe Keagan is a positive intangible...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    I get it. Not my story. Just the talk around here...and/or lack of it...in enemy territory. Ron Guenther is not hated here. He just isn't...much at all. He came across as genuinely nice. Whitman, who lives in my town, is keeping a lower and lower profile. My guess he wants to get the...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    I live 12 miles straight line from Memorial. Guenther is a non issue. Lots of apathy though. Hating Guenther is like hating Mr Roger's. Zook and Turner were highly likeable as well. Was a dark time with the Chancellor and President and almost losing the law school. Mostly they are mad...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    The fans of Illinois don't blame Ron Guenther. They blame Tom Davis and his sidekick. One of which is pretty....greasy. The story line here is that Davis told Pearle to get Dion or leave before being asked to leave. Truth is likely somewhere between IC and Urbana. We know what the situation...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    It's hard to address this without kicking it to the anything...almost goes. But I pretty much disagree, especially this part... you hear so many ex players of all race speak well of KF making them into the men they are. 14....14 players out of 1000's of players over his tenure say otherwise...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    This doesn't really impact my life much...not really at all, but... I can't get past this very well about Barta or KF. Why? I have spent a good part of my career in industries (I've always kept myself diversified) (RE, Finance, and University Education) that require extensive diversity and...

    Kris Murray 1st-Team All-B1G, Rebraca 3rd-Team

    Given Keagan is 89th in the NBA in minutes played and 105th in scoring. 100th in boards. Not All Star, but not exactly moderate. 89th in minutes played. 30 teams. 150 starting spots.... Pretty decent I would say. More non-starters than starters.

    Kris Murray 1st-Team All-B1G, Rebraca 3rd-Team

    Tied 2nd Big scoring. 1st and the other 2nd didn't really shoot 3s. 17th in shooting percentage. Only 3 others made 14 plus per game. 4 didn't score double digits Pretty 3rd Team? Drew double teams a lot. And he didn't play the worst Big Defensive team in fg%

    As long as you disclose it is hard to legally prove discrimination per the law even when it is obvious discrimination occurred due to antics of unscrupulous business/organization leaders.

    You just ducked yourself. KF is the problem but it's OK. That is the problem in reality. No different than anyone else really. No one wants to stick out. If there is a problem it shouldn't be OK.

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    For me, I was answering the discussion. Barta should go. To be on record...which means nothing....the house should be cleared. KF should be gone The bigger issue though is whoever allowed KF to have that kind of power. That begins with Barta and who knows up the chain. The more money...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    I doubt recanted applies. Conformed to what is provable is more likely. Conformed to a unified statement is more likely. Being on the stand is intimidating at its best. My guess is simplified uniformity. No way this was settled without a non disclose agreement. KF likely is pushing his...

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    Barta was responsible to do the right thing regardless of the culture. He either ignored it or was a part of the culture.

    I really don't think you understand (OK I know its a joke) how hard it is to win lawsuits, especially discrimination lawsuits. It's not a matter of being guilty or not, but figuring out how much you were damaged monetarily. Proving loss of NFL income would be very difficult. That these...

    I challenge this. Universities are not corps and under a different set of rules. Like a real estate brokerage has different rules than a home owner renting out the house. Universities are not being coy, but an athletic department is tax exempt. Not for profit.

    Yes but that doesn't negate the possibility of liability. Discrimination is about being harmed, not offended.

    Rob Sand Wants Barta Out

    It's really hard to tell your position. It does fall on Barta as he was responsible for KF officially and his responsibility to make sure trainings were done and protocols followed. That he had to protect himself from KF doesn't matter. Separate issue. You can't misunderstand University...

    Not many. Suing isn't really that easy. Nor is it about some small isolated remark. Attorneys can lose their ability to practice. They vet this out. That the settlement was higher than 40, per person does speak.
