    If Northwestern hires Braun how disappointed would you be?

    Perhaps we should hire his former boss as hc and keep him as DC. Bring the OC too. The Bison just win. Their O scores a lot. They know what a good under the radar QB looks like... See Trey Lance. And they play solid fundamental D

    86 Ex NU players criticize NU administration in open Letter

    As a point of reference... When Joan Esposito filed a lawsuit against Eddie and Jobo and their network it was filed by Webb 6 months and multiple further stupid statements later by them despite it being well known that she had retained Webb. Time is in Fitz's favor here... The coaching carousel...

    Football Shouldn't Be Allowed to Mess Up Everybody Else

    The addition of USC,UCLA, Oregon and Washington will massively improve the BT Olympic sports. Every competitive athlete worth having on our non revenue teams has got to be incredibly excited to compete against a new group of great athletes. Running at Oregon, swimming at UCLA... what a gift!!!

    Is the board broken?

    Really? Do people have so little ego strength that such innocuous comments warrant deletion. I for one found the banter pretty clean, direct, and honestly expressive of the opinions of all.

    Like the players suggest, Why Can't This board...

    I can't believe NU hasn't temporarily shut down the daily yet either.

    Like the players suggest, Why Can't This board...

    It was a response to eurocat who suggested that other athletes don't put as much time and effort into their sports as football players which I found offensive

    Like the players suggest, Why Can't This board...

    This is just an fyi. I get what you're saying, and I was never a college swimmer, but I was a near-elite hs swimmer (top 10 in Illinois in 500 and 200 free, top 20 in 50 free). In hs preseason we watched film of the best swimmers in the world..starts, turns, underwater stroke, recovery...

    ~2006 Hazing - Historical Perspective

    Don't know anything about the swimming team hazing at northwestern. I swam in high school. We had locker room shenanigans every year I was there. One particular tradition was to corner the freshman before the intrasquad meet (freshman v. Sophomores v. Juniors v. Seniors) which was widely...

    A defense of Schill and Gragg

    I think you bring up a valid point. It seems hard to fathom that Nu's GC was involved in the decision to fire Fitz a day after a 2 week suspension was announced. It puts nu in a very bad position. The timing of the initial announcement about Fitz's suspension was absolutely the correct one in...
