    Page status?

    I suspect it is a veiled version of "sh*t poster."

    Stirtz named 1st team (Media) 2nd team (Coaches)

    That would actually be Martinelli, who again led the league in scoring and was relegated to second team. 22.7 ppg, 6.2 rpg, and 50.1% from the field, 40% from three, while being double-teamed and hacked all year will not get you first team if you have Northwestern written on your jersey.

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Indiana

    Yeah, that was barely a foul against Singleton (if at all), and yet they reviewed it for being flagrant. And Nick's lunchpail, YMCA offensive moves routinely fail to draw whistles when fouls actually occur.

    West shows a lot of promise. Much to work with the next three years.

    Nice to be on the other side of a bad no-call for a change. Gutty second half by the 'Cats. Nick was Nick. West and Page were clutch. Most importantly, in my mind, we actually outrebounded IU 34-23, giving up only 5 offensive rebounds. That makes a world of difference.

    OT: Lindsay Vonn crashes, knee likely permanently wrecked

    I am pretty sure that the recent ACL tear was in the knee other than the one that had been partially replaced.

    BASKETBALL Game thread for Northwestern vs. Nebraska

    Nebraska has almost doubled us in rebounds as well. A fatal flaw in this team.

    We were up by one when I tuned in. Ever since . . . .

    Speculation....

    I think Collins looks to be in great health. He got a bit puffy and pasty a few years ago. The trimmer version of today looks healthier to me. (I am kind of envious.)

    The talent disparity tonight is insane.

    Utterly demoralizing. We could play these guys 100 times and lose all 100.

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Penn State

    I was only able to watch the last 10 minutes or so. But my main takeaway was that Jake is a true point guard. He was running the offense and distributing the ball at a high level. Optimistic about him.

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. No. 8 Nebraska

    Yep. We completely whiffed in the portal last year. Add that to the residual effects of the Gragg ultimatum, and you get 0-7 (and counting).

    Fitz to Michigan State

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I prefer "Flat Top Fitz."

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Rutgers

    I would say TWO guys who can’t play at all at this level. You have accurately described the third. We now know why he rode the pine at two prior schools, despite the offensive skills.
