Actually, Notre Dame would have been invited by any bowl, even at 6-6, but because of their current situation the school said they do not wish to participate in a bowl this year.

One way we can start with a bowl limitation is upping the # wins for bowl eligibility from 6 to 7. Can someone count up how many 7 win teams there were this year in the FBS and FCS? I say this is a good place to start for bringing some credibility back to the system.

Completely unnecessary comment.

I like alot of what Cully brings as well, but he does not meet the prerequisites of this thread. I won't go into specifics as I do not wish to pick at Cully.

There are 34 bowl games this year, 34! There are mid-tier 6-6 record teams playing in these games -- yes, mid-tier 6-6 teams playing in bowl games. Has the bowl system almost become irrelevant? My proposition for change to the bowl scene: 1. No bowl to start before Christmas. 2. Number of...

We need the following type of PG to step in immediately next year. This means we likely need to get him from the JUCO ranks. The type of PG that we need for immediate benefit is one that is a superb ball handler, that can drive and beat his defender going either right or left, but then is a...

Yeah, this one is not Lick's fault and he should bear no implications or responsibility.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I have been really disappointed with the direction our league has taken in the last several years to decade. The Big Ten was once synonymous with smash mouth football and basketball. We haven’t lost this in football, but a large portion of teams have...

We do have some pretty good talent coming in, and I am excited about that...

Due to player transfer and injury setbacks, which have resulted in this year having the appearance of year 1 of a rebuilding process, I don't think it is unreasonable to say that we probably won't see things really turning around, i.e., progress, until about this time 2011. Therefore, I think...

I agree, Bulaga, for the same reasons stated.

Gallery was great, and quite the personality, but had to go with all the others before him, and putting Iowa City's own Kaeding at the top because he was such a sure thing -- and for all 4 years! Consistency and greatness.

I knew it was done in football, and is something some coaches/conferences (like SEC) have taken some criticism for, but wasn't certain whether was really done in basketball. I posted that question as a bit of a joke, but I can see a team like Iowa offering many more than available as few...

I couldn't quite tell from his avatar photo, but is TurnipTruck Larson?

Seeing as there is talk that we may have another mass exodus of players at the end of this year, should Iowa start offering more scholarships than a currently available? For example, say we currently have 4 scholarship spots open, but we can expect another 2-3 to transfer at the end of the...

I know Brommer's name has been mentioned for much of the year re: the possibility of transferring, and though Fuller has apparenlty been injured (which is even news to me), he is really getting no playing time, so I can see those two considering, but beyond that, should more be considering or...
