Loving the quotes from Maryland’s coach
No BCEs. "No bitching, complaining, or excuses."
"It's time to stop talking about potential and go out and do it."

I missed Frost, so not sure. players speak at 4pm CT, I believe. Allen, Stille and Dismuke, I think.
From listening/reading some of the reports, I like where Trev is headed with his leadership style. I also liked his comment about not focusing on numbers but on coaching the little things. An area I have been critical of with these coaches.
I simply do not have faith in or trust Warren for a second.

What about that upsets you? Do you want him to say he thinks the team sucks or maybe refuse to answer the questions?
It will be interesting to see the number of wins this excitement yields in year four.
I didn't time it, so am going by memory, but I'd say Warren talked for about 25 minutes before he took questions. It seemed to me he spent maybe seven minutes on how special the B1G is and the history highlights of the league. Then he spent almost 10 minutes on diversity and inclusion. In the last 8 minutes he spoke about NIL for maybe a minute and conference realignment in vague terms for a minute, spent a minute or two announcing Barry Alvarez was given some puff job on league staff, and he wrapped his formal comments up. Diversity and inclusion are important no doubt. But I wish he would have spent more time outlining a plan for the conference to assist athletes with NIL and more meat about adding teams to the conference should that become necessary. Meanwhile the SEC is talking about adding two marquee teams and have their first $1M NIL recipient.
Mr Warren,
What is this diversity and inclusion you speak of?

Haven’t seen anything of what players said. I’m sure it’s mostly the usual player-speak, but wondering if there were any interesting notes?
Looks like Trev and the entire group of reporters interviewing him could have just carpooled together from Nebraska to Indy.
I think wags was referring to Trev saying we didn’t use slogans, but it seems as though we did in 93…
Don’t remember exactly when refuse to lose was, but pretty sure unfinished business came about because we lost in 92 to FSU (well, technical, 93 OB). So 93 season was unfinished business, since we were seconds away from beating FSU.
