Ha, based on the comments made it looks like you are the one that doesn't get it. You act like you know about revenue generation compared to Jim Delany. Yesterday it was about making ND come, now it is about tv revenue? You have no facts to support your poorly thought out opinon. PITT adds...

WRONG again. It isn't about how many homes it reaches but actually home many watch the game. People don't care about Pitt...period. How many fans Pitt draws is a reflection of how interesting they are.

Pitt/PSU a major draw.... in PA. Pitt v ND, only because of ND. Pitt doesn't capture a national audience period. He can't even capture the city of Pittsburgh (doesn't sell out consistently).

Adding Pitt that will do it! ND plays Navy too, maybe the B10 should go after them.

Clearly you aren't a business man or entrepreneur, as none of your points talk about what is driving conference realignment....MONEY. If you cannot give a good money outcome to the existing members it won't happen. Football tradition? When were they last relevent? Minnesota has tradition...

This would be more comparable to trusting my lawyer over myself to represent me in court. How much time, and what knowledge base, do you bring to your opinion? Compare that to Jim Delany and his B10 office team. I also do think for myself, my opinions were included after my Delany statement...

How well did Mitch King perform against Wisconsin in his career? Size doesn't equal better. Talent, techique and quickness are what matters.

I trust Jim Delany's analyze over yours any day Duffman. Pitt offers no additional value to the B10. No additional revenue increases to the existing members. Not in a growing population area. Not a big name draw to capture national audiences. They also do not fill their stadium (which isn't...

He camped at MSU, why didn't they offer him? The coaches must think they have better options.

Maybe you don't understand. I didn't say you can't be a good player in college, without making to the NFL. However, the best college players make it to the NFL. Name me a stud college player that was not drafted? I never said anything about performance in the NFL, I said make it to the NFL...

Sleeper = walkon

How many kids from the state of Iowa that Iowa didn't offer have made it to the NFL? Serious question. At the end of the day, the NFL determines how good you are/were in college. Excepts being option qbs.

Call me crazy, but in time I don't see why they won't. Not the current fans, but like WhitUp said, their kids may. We may not be rivals then, similarly to UNI. Why would their newer fans in 20 years be bitter to Iowa? Likewise, why would Iowa not route for ISU?

Hypothetical... If ISU goes to a non BCS league, say the MWC or CUSA, do graduates of the school in time become Tavern Hawks? Obviously this won't happen anytime real soon, as many of their fans hate Iowa and won't cheer for Iowa no matter what. In time though, as they compete at a lower...

We will see in a year or two. Todd Blythe was a sure fire NFL WR according to most ISU fans. I think you are making a lot of assumptions.

I said we need/and do overcome to be a successful program. I do think we are a successful program.

I agree with the first two statements. I tend to think we have performed as we should under KF. Could it be worse, definitely! We do have issues that we need/and do overcome to be a successful program. I think some of that is due to the fans passion (attendence, money donated), which allows...

First of all, I like KF, and want him to be Iowa's coach. So don't call me a hater. Currently, Iowa has 35 players in the NFL, which is in the top 10. However we we don't consistent perform like it. 8 wins last year with already 9 players on NFL roster from the team. There is one stat...

I didn't know Kirk had off season press conferences? You couldn't ask the question in the spring, as nobody knew if he would be invited or not. Whether DJK deserved what he got and whether the question should of been asked aren't the same question. You are buddies with someone if you...

Stunt? Reporters ask questions, some of them are tough. Kirk is a big boy, makes $3m a year, he can handle a few tough questions about in game decisions and whether he got DJK black balled or not. DJK made his own bed, but many people have wanted the question asked for a long time. I am...
