    Concessions at the Barn are whack

    Prices last weekend at TCF ... sorry Huntington ... were absurd. Glad I drank and ate before the game. (Though who am I kidding, I bought beer at the stadium)

    Indiana may be crazy, but they're not stupid. They have finance people in the athletic department. So does the league office. They're clearly projecting out revenue, to be able to do this. Whether it's Big Ten TV money, or big donations they have at least soft commitments on, or this Private...

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Vikings In-Season Thread

    It was always a problem of logistics. You can't split reps between two QB's all week and get the starter adequately prepared. You have maybe two days, more like one, to do something like that. And you have to assess at reasonable speed if McCarthy's ankle is good to go and if the rust from not...

    Fleck and Virginia Tech? Says small chance... but worth noting

    Wasn't it known that Fleck at W Michigan looking to capitalize on his success had "a list" of programs and that one of the criteria was being in a large market? VT, like their former hated rival WV, are the antithesis of that.

    Not trying to be a prick. Just that, none of this makes any sense to me. 2024 Indiana basically went 1-1 in the only two games that mattered. They beat Michigan at home, a team that would two weeks later beat Ohio State, and they lost at Ohio State. Then lost in the first round to Notre Dame...

    Bold: So ... Cig did some nice things at ... [let me look here, ah yes] James Madison. Granted, he couldn't get past the Bison in 2019 and 2021, when JMU was still FCS. But he did have a couple nice seasons the first two of JMU moving up to FBS. And then, he's at Indiana. That ... gets you...

    Steve Sarkisian went from Washington directly to USC in the old Pac-12 in 2014. Of course, that ended very poorly and quickly. Tom Obrien was HC at Boston College for several years in the Big East, and then a couple years after they moved to the ACC he left directly for NC State in 2007. That...

    That's just because the NFL chooses to subtract sack yards from "team" passing. Don't get me wrong, 45 actual passing yards ain't good. Might be one of very few areas where college does it better.

    Would be ... I guess ... a matter of if he believes a program like Indiana can ever win a natty, in the current cabal of blue blood oligopoly that is college football. If not, that would be the reason to go to, say, Penn State.

    Did the wins come first, or did the donors come first? I'm just wondering why doesn't our prez, Coyle, and Fleck attrack the donors in the same way? I guess I don't know about the new prez that much, but certainly Coyle and Fleck want to win and would gladly pay players to come here to make...

    Iowa Gametime?

    How far ahead of time do the network partners have to choose which games they're taking for a particular week? I'm guessing it's a thing of which network gets us as to which slot they're going to try to put the game in?

    So where we all at 3 games in?

    You were thinking that was how the Purdue game was going to go, when you put it in the Wins category, right? :cool: I think the NW game belongs in the story of the season group. And so should have the Purdue game. At this point, it seems like only Buff, NW State, and Wisc are actually for sure...
