    I'd like the whole everyone makes it thing to be killed off. Can do the top team from every section, so you get your statewide participation, then the next 4 or 8 are based on ranking, coaches vote, computer formula, whatever. With an everyone in bracket, every team in the state in except one...

    Neal: Anderson Arena will be a game-changer for St. Thomas

    Only "problem" (not really, just saying) is that building it like that sucks up more of the money for the exterior and design. You can see on the video above, that it is a very fine facility and a massive upgrade over what they had. But on an absolute scale, it is very Summit League, very much...

    So, hat's off to Cig's agent. Leveraging this incredibly fortunate two year schedule run, and yes executing on winning a bunch of games you should win (as we know with Fleck by comparison, that's a nice thing to have), into a massive payday. By all means, take Cuban's money from his sudden...

    Bold: the dirty secret is that Indiana hasn't really done that much. They only had two tough games in 2024, and split those, then weren't competitive against Notre Dame in the first round. Missed another loss by avoiding the Big Ten champ game (which they did not play either team in regular...

    You mean five opted down, to get from 48 to 43? The enrollments are here, but naturally are not sorted in order: https://www.mshsl.org/sites/default/files/2025-02/csp_enrollments-by-alpha_2025-2026-and-2026-2027_0.pdf If I was less lazy I'm sure the numbers could be extracted and sorted by any...

    Penn State fired a winning coach to find a great one. What does history say about that decision?

    Penn State fired a winning coach to find a great one. What does history say about that decision?

    You would think that they wouldn't pull this move unless they already had a firm, under the table committment from their target, Right? To me that says they were actually targeting Rhule all along and he gave them a yes under the table/off the record. While, of course, saying all the right...

    Nebraska Game

    This could be a massive reach, but did attending Holy Angels have anything to do with it? I know Omaha has Creighton, so guessing some amount of Catholics down there, maybe one up here with HA connections was also a Neb booster? Like I said, a reach

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

    Beamer was a good coach. His DC for a lot of his success was a guy who played for him and was a VT lifer. (Still there in admin now) They almost reached the pinnacle in 1999 with Vick, lost the natty game to FSU. The Big East was easy. One or two big games a year. Then play in a bowl. ACC was...

    Bengals are weak. I mean, yeah, they only lost 24-37 to Detroit, and now they beat the previously 4-1 Steelers. Hugely weak. Makes sense our win against them doesn't count. If only KOC would have chosen to call good, winning plays before! Instead of purposefully calling bad, losing plays! Argh!

    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...

    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...
