I've been away from this board for awhile and was surprised, upon returning, that no one even started this thread. I realize the Cubs are in another transition, but surely there is some interest in the team. Or maybe not. I no longer get the Marquee Channels so I rarely get to see my beloved...

I see no one else started this thread, so I will. Watched a few of the Cubs Spring ball games and they didn't look too bad. Now, they come home for the season opener and lay a gigantic 2 hit egg for their fans. I know it is only one game, but this is exactly how the Cubs have looked when...

I read today that the NCAA has extended the June 3rd date for players considering jumping to the NBA this year. They've left it open for now based on the NBA's plans for actually having the draft. What we do know is that unless Luka just outright makes a decision, we may have to wait even...

I listen to a lot of McCaffery's pre and post game comments, but I've never heard anyone ask him why Moss starts and gets playing time in the first halves of games, but mostly sits in the second halves. Has he ever addressed this issue? Is it stamina? Defensive lapses (which Hawk doesn't have...

Terran Petteway announced today he is foregoing his senior year to enter the NBA draft. Miles will have a pretty young and inexperienced team next year.

Alex Illikainen, who's decision came down to Iowa and Wisconsin, chose the Badgers. Another green participant ribbon for Fran and the staff.

Mudiay, whose commitment to SMU, for all intents and purposes started the dominos falling allowing Ulis to chose Kentucky over Iowa, has decided to skip college ball and take his game to Europe to play for pay. Just another brick in the Iowa Basketball jinx wall.

He is going to appear live on KCRG's channel 9.2 at 6:30 tonight. Maybe he can shed some light on what went wrong down the stretch of the basketball season, although I sincerely doubt he is going to throw any of the players or the coaching staff under the bus. The show is called "On Iowa Live"...

Bluder's team playing so tough right now, plus having a ball! Great to see.

They're showing last night's game again right now as a "Big Ten Classic."

So tough down the stretch and take the the game away from Purdue. Iowa men's team could take a lesson from them.

28-18 at halftime, Rodents. How the heck did the Buckeyes beat us at home? They have zero offense.

Two teams that are in total freefall met today in Madison and O$U hangs on for another win at Kohl. That's back to back home losses for Bo. Can't be used to that. Wisky has now lost five of their last six after starting 16-0. Can't say I feel too badly for them.

Had a lot of nice things to say about the Hawks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRAAvQG0P9g

Oops. double post

SIAP, but I thought this interesting. ESPNU College Basketball - ESPN

Ran across a Vegas website that lists the odds of winning the 2014 NCAA Tournament. Here are the numbers they're posting: MSU -- 10/1 OSU -- 18/1 Mich. -- 25/1 Ind. -- 40/1 IOWA -- 50/1 Wisc. -- 50/1 Ill. -- 75/1 Minn. -- 100/1 Pur. -- 100/1 Nwest. -- 500/1 No listing for Nebraska...

Are there no standards for football equipment set by the NCAA? I notice that several Northwestern players are wearing pants that don't even cover their knees. I always thought that players were required to wear certain pads, for example knee pads, to take the field. Have these rules changed?

Kentucky's main PG recruiting target, Emmanuel Mudiay, is said to be announcing that he is going to attend SMU today. Wonder what effect this will have on Tyler Ulis?

Hawks jump out to a 19-13 lead late in first quarter. Jok leads the way with 7 points.
