    Done Deal! - MINNESOTA HIRES NIKO MEDVED!!

    People have tried to draw parallels between the Johnson and Whalen hires for years, but there's really no comparison. Neither had the resume to support them as a Big Ten head coach hire, but at least Whalen was legendary as a player and had a history of winning at all levels. Johnson was...

    I figure because you get 2 steps between dribbles or between a dribble and shot, and he took 3. You can use the weasel word "gather" or whatever you want, it's still a travel. You're talking about how the game is officiated, and I'm talking about what the actual rule is. As I accurately...

    Derik Queen traveled on the game winner, but it's not like traveling is ever called at any level anymore.

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    Sad as hell? I'm literally throwing a party today. And aside from all the other reasons this was a terrible hire, his one "positive" - that he is an alumnus - is sullied by the fact that he didn't choose to go here initially, he transferred. Bye Ben! Don't let the door hit ya where the good...

    All Things NFL Coaching Carousel

    A rookie QB with a higher ceiling than any QB Vrabel had in Tennessee, perhaps. "Ryan f'ing Tannehill," as Ogee called him, had the 6th-highest single season QB rating in league history in 2019. He followed that up with an "off year", only the 47th-highest all-time, in 2020, and then in 2021...

    Five Guys On A Shortlist: If the U Decides Change Is Needed, Aim High & Don't Be Cheap With That Big Ten Cash

    Utah gets drilled in Waco by a top-25 Baylor squad, and that's what took Craig Smith off the list for you? I mean, he wasn't going to come here anyway (we missed our shot 4 years ago), but weird hill to die on, selecting based on road losses to ranked teams.

    Will Minnesota Vikings make the Super Bowl?

    The only problem with our running game is that we don't run enough. We are somehow 12th in rush attempts as a team (which is shocking to me - I would've guessed 20th-25th before I looked), and almost every single team ahead of us is in or near the playoffs. There is a striking positive...

    I can't believe that Rex Ryan is only 62. I see him quite a bit on Get Up on ESPN, and I would've guessed 75. He is only 5 years older than Mike Greenberg, but looks like he could be Greeny's dad.

    Dylan Ray OL from Kentucky Commits

    Jesus, you're a tool. Callahan has put multiple OL into the NFL at multiple schools, and will be putting another one there this year, probably in the first round. How many NFL OL have you coached?

    The future of championship games is in jeopardy - Yahoo Sports

    I agree that the conference championship games have become counterproductive in the current iteration, but there has to be some way to actually decide conference champions. Preferably, that way would be on the field rather than a selection committee or just selecting the regular season winner...

    Corn Nation on Nebbie Loss to UCLA

    Actually, since Nebraska is now 27 years removed from their last national title and 25 years removed from their most recent conference title, I was going to say that late 1980s/early 1990s would've been more appropriate.

    Corn Nation on Nebbie Loss to UCLA

    You trot this insane garbage out every so often, while ignoring that there are multiple Division I teams in other sports in Nebraska, including specifically Creighton basketball, which is annually among the most competitive teams in the country. It is also gleefully ignorant of the fact that...
