    Chargers vs Chiefs

    SMH..a whole thread about the Chiefs/Chargers game, and no one mentions the biggest NU tie-in of all: that Patrick Mahomes' QB coach is NU legend Mike Freaking Kafka. There can be no doubt whatsoever in the mind of any knowledgeable observer that Mahomes' all-world talents can largely be...

    If this type of sleaze reaches NU athletics, I'm done.

    Bingo. I think it’s when you have an entire local community wrapped up in the fortunes of the sports teams that you start having these issues of institutional control. For better or worse, that kind of community support is almost-unimaginable for NU.
