    CONFIRMED: Lakefront Temporary Stadium is a GO

    Did the University check with gocatsgo before announcing this plan? He is certain it won’t work. I hope they checked with him…

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. No. 2 Purdue

    News flash: big ten officiating is awful. Home team bias. One of the reasons it’s so hard to win on the road in conf.

    Man that was winnable

    So hard to win on the road in Big Ten. Refs are human. Close calls go the way of the home team. There was a particular stretch in the second half where it seemed to lean against the cats. And the make up call late in the first that gave Neb three free throws was not a foul. But no news flash here.

    How long u til Michigan championship vacated?

    In the category of “if a tree falls in the forest does anyone hear it.“ Who cares? NCAA is irrelevant. The CFP is pro football and nobody will care.

    According to "The Athletic" 1000 players entered the portal yesterday

    How many of the 1100 were told by their coach they should move on and their university is no longer honoring their scholarship? Isn't that the real scandal in these numbers?

    NU @ DU Prediction Thread

    Cats get down early, then have to play catch up and turn the ball over a couple times in the second half. Another NU TD in garbage time. Devils: 31 Cats: 10

    NU vs ND: NFL draft/B-jo

    And behind the Irish law firm linebackers. His weakness at run support was not exposed his all American year.

    Firings: What should happen vs. what will happen

    What should happen: Fitz reads the Shaw news and follows his lead. He can claim he never intended to coach his son, and its time for new blood. Time to bring in Mike Kafka! What will happen: Fits stays; JON is gone.

    Gragg (an new Pres) should seize the opportunity..but they won't

    Fitz is untouchable given his links to the big money donors. Gragg can’t touch him. But Gragg can insist on firing his staff; and should do it himself if Fitz won’t. Fitz can resign if he’s pissed, or decide to play on Gragg’s terms. We’ll see if Gragg is in charge this week; or if he works for...

    Game thread for IU vs. NU

    What a ridiculous half. Collins either cannot coach, has no control of this team, or both.

    BREAKING: NU lands two Chicago area commits

    Covey played QB and Wide Receiver. Multi-sport athlete that could dunk a basketball as a Freshman in High School. Seems to fit Fitz' mold of best athlete on the team. Nice to land a couple of Chicagoland athletes early that have the academic credentials to get in.

    Fleck or Fitz? Who is coaching better the last three years?

    Stupid question. The goal is to get to the Conf Championship game. Over past three years Fitz twice; Fleck zero. No contest. Fleck not getting there this year either.
