    From the LSU football board on Tate

    This is a critical hire at a critical time for universities nationwide. I wish President Tate well, as he leads us to continued academic success and hopefully athletic success. As the local LSU station said "Tate...will now be leading one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the...

    OT: World’s largest indoor ‘social playground’ opening in N.J. with mini-golf, luxury bowling

    Albatross? That’s certainly an interesting name. :) The website is promising a lot. It sounds like it’s going to be pricey, but I hope that it succeeds.

    OT: Best Jersey Shore Places for Drinks/Food

    And if half of the people are like me, they will go to one or two beach towns maybe a few times a year, rarely venturing south of Point Pleasant. It’s not like people are sharing secret places to park near the RAC.

    New president to be voted on on Monday

    This is very good news. "Tate said his athletic background, particularly as a cross country runner at Northern Illinois University where he earned a bachelors degree, taught him to persevere. “You never quit,” Tate said. “You’re in pain, you don’t quit. You don’t quit on your teammates. You...

    Awful as in boring or awful as in dirty/unsafe?

    Hypothetical—If Rutgers Had Joined the ACC

    I recall someone at Rutgers doing a courtesy call to discuss ACC membership right before we were invited to the Big Ten. I refer to it as a courtesy call because Rutgers knew where it was heading, but took the call anyway. Was it Pernetti talking to the ACC commissioner? I seem recall something...

    Would a different coach actually bring in more NIL here or would it make no meaningful difference?

    That’s not true. We have the Werblin Center, Rodkin Center, the football practice fields, and other facilities supported by donors. The issue is specifically NIL, which is a new phenomenon for donors. People give money for tangible things, not paying players, at least not here. I get it. I think...

    End of an era: Corso to retire from College Gameday

    College gameday WAS college football back in the day. Corso, Herbstreit and Fowler were quite a team, and the broadcast was always top notch and entertaining. In the last few years, the show was not the same - it was more like a sideshow than a pregame show. The Big Ten show is so much better...

    Renegotiating NIL Deal

    It’s about timing and protocol. Sure, players can negotiate, but you can’t just skip a practice and expect that all will be forgiven when you return. This isn’t pro football. Also, you can’t have players negotiating during spring practices. Negotiations should be done immediately after the...

    OT: Huge RU win in lacrosse

    Amazingly, we seemingly own teams like Michigan in lacrosse every year and we also beat Johns Hopkins this year. Unfortunately we lost to some lower ranked competition as well. Hopefully, the team can go on a little run and make some noise on the Big Ten Tournament.

    4 remaining guys - Davis / Ogbole / Grant / Dortch

    There are no "established teams" anymore. It's a game of musical chairs, with everyone hoping for a seat and a bag of money.
