Jon- in regards to the show this morning

I don't think there is any possibility that Iowa would accept a 4 school "pod" that doesn't include Wisconsin. I don't understand why everyone thinks Iowa and Missouri have to be in the same group. If they go with the "pod" idea, Iowa would be with Minnesota, Nebraska and Wisconsin. Mizzouri would be with Northwestern, Ill and Purdue/Indiana. Just my opinion.

I don't think the U of I's opinion on what's going to happen holds a lot of weight with the b10 offices. We should be happy we're already in.

Iowa will have just as much of an opinion as Michigan and Ohio State do.

Wish I could believe that...but I don't.

This is about money, which is about eyeballs. Those two schools and their traditions trump any other in the league.

A few schools are going to have their traditions changed through all of this...well, all will, some more dramatically than others...and if missouri and nebraska come to the league, Iowa is going to be one of those schools that is in their division...whether its four team pods, or eight team divisions, or 7 team divisions...

I concur with this. Iowa has the benefit of being in the best conference in the land because it was there early. It is the smallest population state in the Big Ten, and in this aspect, that means least to offer a television network. that's the reality.
