exactly. It took them months to figure it out the first time. This could be tricky. Ideally, you'd move MSU over to the other division for Indiana but then Michigan and MSU could go years without playing eachother.

it's not tricky at all....go EAST - WEST alignment like they should have in the first place
don't care if OSU and UM are not able to play each other in the ccg....that is not even important any more...the days of catering to a couple of teams is over, and shouldn't even be a consideration
um/msu to the east ....wis/il to the west

With 1/3 of the Leaders division not able to participate in the postseason the B1G should just allow the top two eligible teams in the whole conference to play each other, regardless of divisional alignment. Leaving it as is basically gives Wiscy a free ticket to the championship game.

Vacated wins may not adjust the previous conference standings.have to look at further. Said lesser sports will NOT be impacted by fines, ncaa will work with.
Said this has no impact on future expansion, not looking at that direction now in any way.

Iowa, Minnesota and Northwestern need realignment most. 9 other teams with competitive advantage over them if doesn't change. This is an undertone of what really matters but the fan in me is jealous because Iowa gains zero competitive advantage from this. Yet every team in Leaders division does.

His entire basis for the way he aligned it is now totally out the window....but he apparently hasn't had a chance to confer with his bosses in Columbus and Ann Arbor yet on how to re-spin it.

AND they're giving PSU's sahre of the booty to charitable organizations! That is bullcrap they should have given that money to Iowa.

You know what? We're all going to survive. A little bit of perspective might be appropriate at this point.

Delaney said damage to B1G is not irrepairable. Damaging, but can be overcome. Mason: can learn and grow from.

Dont worry. Ohio State is 1 year away from running away with the leaders division every single year. So those teams are f'd too. I know Michigan is recruiting at a good clip, but Id take Iowa's position then having to beat Urban Meyer and OSU ever year.

Sally, what a load....
And Delaney comment is simply intended to set this up as a way to keep OSU and UM in separate divisions....because that's what's most important here
