    Big Ten Coaches Talk Anonymously About Conference Foes for 2025 ("if they win nine games or so, he’ll be on the hunt to move.”)

    Perfect fit indeed. He is rowing away with a boat load of money, can win 7 or 8 games a year and guys here are talking about building a statue. Why leave?

    Roman Voss

    Voss has played a lot of receiver/tight end for JCC in the offensive side of the ball owing to 1. an injury in fall 2023 and 2. Another QB who throws maybe a better ball than Roman. On D he's played defensive back.

    "Real" NIL doesn't exist. The money some deep pocketed Col. Sanders who is a fan of some SEC school will throw a lot of money at a play that would trump the peanuts he'd get from Joe's Tires or Betty's greasy spoon for actual endorsement work.

    Utah to B1G?

    Let me get this straight - we shouldn't add growing markets because they are deteriorating? We are in a deteriorating market along with the rust belt portion of the big ten.

    Utah to B1G?

    Rapidly expanding market? The present is not static, after all.

    Coastal Carolina just announced that all concessions will be free at home football games this fall. Fans can get four items per concession visit.

    Indulging in expensive junk food and then bitching about the prices is all part of the fun. Hell, going to Vikings games as a kid, I looked forward to hot dogs and nachos as much as the cheer leaders and the game.

    Nadine asks Medved about hanging the 1997 banners and playing St. Thomas

    When did Duluth reclassify to DI and move to a campus a few miles from the U? I think the crowds would initially be bigger and then taper off as the novelty wears off. If and when UST grew closer competitively, then I think the crowds would be bigger again. I don't watch hockey, especially...

    Eh, you never know. I was at a game at the barn a number of years ago for a game against a regional mid-major. I bought a ticket on the street, sat behind Sid. The place was absolutely empty. I don't know if break had started or what but no students showed. The opponent, who was not very...

    The success of any program will not be coaches, arenas and geographical talent, but bags of NIL money. UST doesn't have any. UofM has very little by comparison to those that do. Thankfully, UofM will have revenue sharing to at least keep ahead of the mid-majors.

    Good sized, well funded Catholic school in a metro of a million plus with a solid corporate community. While not all Big East schools are Catholic, 9 of 11 are. Bradley is private but not religious affiliated. Drake is Catholic I believe. A little smaller school and smaller metro. Not a lot...

    There must be some interest. The Big Neighbor was broadcasting Tommie FB games when they were still DIII and at least some of their MBB games were on broadcast television this year. My assumption is after they move out of the middle school gym into their new arena, there'll be an initial buzz...
