    Donnie Tyndall compared to North Carolina

    Remember the immortal words of Coach Jerry Tarkanian: "The NCAA got so mad at Kentucky they gave Cleavland State two more years probation." Nothing major will happen to North Carolina. They're too important to the NCAA money machine.

    Ticket Sells

    How current are these numbers?? I question the accuracy. 2 days ago I searched entire east side of stadium plus north end zone looking for Wisky tickets. There were very few available. Granted, if seats are available from last year's student section the above data would be more credible...

    B1G steals another from SEC

    Ash has strong Iowa ties. Played for Ottumwa Bulldogs and Drake Bulldogs. Good guy & has earned everything he's got. I've hoped Iowa would take a look at him someday but that doesn't appear realistic now.

    Anthony Hubbard to Transfer!

    What a novel idea, jumper. Get the facts before passing judgment.That concept does not fit most posters on this board. I have zero factual information about this but I'd lay money there are academic problems here. Nothing else makes much sense. We may never know the real story on this deal.

    Miller & Deace: Where Should B1G Play Title Game?

    Stay in a domed stadium. Indy & Detroit. Consider Minny when they get their new domed stadium built. Rotate between domes which are located within Big X territory. This should be a no brainer.

    Hayden Question..

    Addendum to my previous post. One of the strong connections between Hayden & Sherrif Ron is that both are ex Marines. (I know, all of your Marines say, "once a Marine, always a Marine!!!)

    Hayden Question..

    Sherrif Ron is a big dude but I doubt he's 6' 7". I'd guess more like 6' 3" or 6' 4". Fun guy to be around & his family hosts a great tailgate just north of Kinnick - Ron is the pride of Saylorville!!!!!

    OSU players sold/traded 36 items

    According to the report Justice Dept. notified The Ohio State in December - prior to the bowl game. NCAA should come down on the Buckeyes like a ton of bricks - TOSU administrators & coaches knew about these allegations way before the bowl game yet still negotiated a deal to allow those players...

    Gessell Spotted with Fran

    The best part of this story is that Fran is busy doing things which are a total surprise to all of the pundits on this board. While many fans hyperventilate about lack of visible recruiting results Coach Fran & staff are busy doing the work. Persistent hard work with no fan-fare - Fran is...

    Was Paul Rhoades at Auburn when all the payolla was going on?

    I'd lay money that there is no dirt on Rhoades' hands. He is an outstanding, stand-up guy & does things the right way. Chizik - maybe. Rhoades - absolutely not.

    NCAA Basketball Tournament Attendance

    Des Moines can definitely handle an opening round for NCAA tourney. We have the facilities & plenty of amenities for visiting fans. Get Jerry Crawford to run with this idea & I'd lay money we'd get selected. He be da man to pull this off.

    Did Archie Even Show up?

    Agreed 100% Columbus. If Archie is making grades, staying out of trouble, working hard in practice, & on track to graduate we should keep him. Other posters have made good points - he is at least a Big X body & can eat space & rebound a bit. Fran can gain some long term good will with lots...

    HOW MANY SORRY A$$ CUBS FANS DO WE HAVE IN HERE??

    Cub fan here. Grew up in Des Moines & started rooting for Cubs when their Iowa farm club was known as "Des Moines Bruins" & played in the old Western League. Ernie Banks had a cup of coffee with that team.

    Returning Starters in Big Ten

    Regarding Nebraska - listened to college sports talk show on Sirius Radio this am - can't remember the channel - but Eddie George & Eric Crouch were 2 of the guys doing the talking - can't remember the host's name either. In any event, a man called in & identified himself as father of one of...

    KXNO Morning Show

    Thanks, RawkHawk!!!! That, sir, is the most accurate & intelligent post I've read on this board in a while. KOK calls the exact type of game KF wants called. KOK is not out on an island doing his own thing - he follows the company line & philosophy. Play calling reflects KF's thinking -...

    We lost a great Hawk fan last week...

    Tomxahawke, you're father was a great person as well as a good Hawk!! I used to do business at his bank & always enjoyed dealing with him. Tragic loss - as has been suggested by other posters, remember the good times!!!!!
