    Pat Fitzgerald suspended for 2weeks.

    This might be the first step to this being his last year at Northwestern.

    In the next expansion wave, B1G should look Southwest before Northwest

    If you get Notre Dame interested, ND probably has the ability to pick their own partner. (Washington, Cal, Stanford, etc.). They probably have that much pull if they act soon enough. The longer they wait however, the less options they'll have.

    Buboltz: Big Ten West Will Come Down To The Badgers Or Iowa Hawkeyes

    Shikenjanski is barely out of high school. I'm not going to worry about his weight yet. Kid still might be growing for all we know. After a year in school, he'll probably gain 30 lbs pretty easy. If he's 175 next year at this time, I'll be a bit more concerned.

    Which current Power 5 head coaches are the best and worst vs. the Top 25? (The Worst: T(9) PJ Fleck – Minnesota – 20% (4-16))

    It's like you aren't even watching football. College football. NFL draft. Anything.

    Land Grant Holy Land: Raking the Big Ten Coaches in 2023 (10. PJ Fleck; "it’s up to him to prove he can continue to succeed in the new landscape.")

    This is the dumbest article I've read in a while. PJ Fleck routinely out performs the Vegas odds and the comment is he loses one more game than he should. So, some where there is a 2-3 game delta between Vegas odds and this authors expectations.

    Which current Power 5 head coaches are the best and worst vs. the Top 25? (The Worst: T(9) PJ Fleck – Minnesota – 20% (4-16))

    What is interesting is the coaches who have done well against the top 25 are at programs that are very good at being a ranked team themselves. They also get to play a fair number of games against teams that happened to be over-ranked when they played them. Florida and Kentucky were not very...

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    Not only that, it's that many seasons without a Championship game appearance I believe.

    How did Asuma perform in State Tourney?

    You should have watched on the channel 45 app.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I don't think that's good enough, but I could see an opportunity where he would get a 4th year IF a ton of talent emerges and they come together late in the year and they are all coming back, etc. But it's like we need 99 of 100 things to go right for this to happen. We're largely going to be...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I think we are 365 days away from a decision if I'm counting right and we lose weakling Wednesday 2024. (And don't take this as me wanting him gone. I want him to be successful, but there are so few signs right now and I think I'm being realistic considering the financial pressures coming with...

    MN High School Basketball Sections - Can someone explain any of this?

    Lakeville North playing Lakeville South is a good example of a lack of progress towards common sense. Sure, you want a sectional to be inclusive of it's rural teams, but if they don't advance, is it too hard to change the venue to a common-sense location? Is no other gym space not available as...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I'm not advocating for it. I don't think it should just come down to wins or losses. If he has a young nucleus that improves during the year, and they beat some good teams down the line instead of a 10 point come from behind win against Rutgers, perhaps that paints the picture that the team is...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    If we get 6-7 Big Ten Wins, that's probably enough to earn year four with a young nucleus. To get to 6-7 wins however, we'll need to see a couple key contributors develop who we haven't seen yet. That's where I have the doubts.

    Dylan Wright

    If we stay healthy, I think we have enough WR's. If we don't stay healthy, we'll need the young kids to take that next step. I think we're better off than we were last year after CrAB got hurt.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    There's a chance Ben turns it around next year, but I'd say the chances are slim, and it also depends on your definition of "turn it around". Despite whatever transfers he does or doesn't land, and despite the potential of all players healthy, I don't see how anyone who watches Big Ten...

    It’s Time for Coyle to hit F#€k it!

    Ben might have a nice recruiting network, but his coaching network is essentially Dave Thorson. He worked under Pitino and that didn't go well. Very small network of other coaches he can share player references on. Potential transfers. Just very ill-prepared and fans are bearing the burden of...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    It's a PR thing. You can't make the decision "too quickly" but at this point, I think we are counting days until Weakling Wednesday is over at the Target Center next year. Like Lindsay, Ben could be let go on a Thursday after a weakling Wednesday loss at the Target Center. 366 days Edit, 2024...

    Treyton Thompson has officially entered the transfer portal

    Depends if he has girlfriend I suppose, if not, he'll find a wife from a wealthier family probably at St. Thomas rather than NDSU. That would affect his lifetime financial future a lot more.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I think some fans already have concluded that Luke Loewe and Tarus Samuel's level transfers, whether 1 or 5 in quantity, isn't going to save Ben his job next year nor have us finish above 13th. Unfortunate that Ben doesn't have the NIL to work with to land top of the line transfers, so I think...
