    NCAA votes to approve $2.8B settlement in House, Hubbard and Carter cases

    This is the end of college athletics. I might find a D3 team to follow,but I'm not spending money on this new reality for the major conferences.

    Utah starting QB entering portal - AFTER the bowl game

    Wouldn't it just sum up modern day college football perfectly if he transfers to Northwestern?

    Curt Cignetti hired as new Indiana Head Coach

    I think he has made a mistake. I'm guessing that he's just trying to grab a few years of a major paycheck before he retires. It's unlikely that he can replicate his success at Indiana. He had a great situation at JMU.

    OT: PSU should fire Franklin, right?

    There was also a report of him trying to contact a rape victim at Vanderbilt. Apparently, he tried to convince her not to press charges against a football player.

    Hire Braun

    Coach Braun needs a contract and all of the assistant coaches with ties to Fitz need to go. Bajakian should have been fired by Fitz at least twice. I trust Braun to hire good coaches. Anyone who believes that Bajakian should stay might want to pivot from football to pickelball.

    Big Ten TV Schedule: Week Ten (11/4)

    I think it is complete ******** that our game is on Peacock. I am not signing up for another streaming service. I get the gimmick, but it's not going to work. I'll find a better game to watch.

    Give Fitz much credit...

    I was thinking about the team's 4-4 record yesterday. Rather, I was wondering if Fitz could have gotten this team to 4-4 by this point in the season. My answer is no. Fitz was a great coach, but his teams in recent years were defined by low energy and overly cautious strategy. I am impressed...

    Knocked it out of the park

    Mike, I didn't say it wasn't an A+. I just said it was boring.

    David Braun at the podium

    I think NU should plan on keeping him for at least three years. We are going to lose a lot of players in the portal after this season. NU football is going to go through a mini dark age. We might as well have consistency at the top until the program's reputation is restored.

    Knocked it out of the park

    He made it clear that his father is a Wisconsin fan. Otherwise, it was a forgettable 15 minutes. He did exactly what he was expected to do.

    Could Coach’s admiration for the military have had something to do with the hazing?

    Fitz had the team spend a day with some Navy Seals at least once, but I don't see how that has any connection to the current situation.

    MacPherson specifically named as a witness to and participant in hazing

    It's only a matter of time before someone can produce text messages about this stuff. I don't think we are even close to the end of these revelations.

    Yates

    I don't see how you can definitely say that. There are details we don't know.

    Yates

    I don't think this was Sheffielder's intention, but that comment brought this one to mind. Barnett snapped at a reporter Tuesday who asked him about her abilities. "It was obvious Katie was not very good. She was awful," he said. "Katie was not only a girl, she was terrible. OK? There's no...
