Around the Big Ten

[lineygoblue]

So much for the foolish assertion (with apologies to entropy...well...not really...he's an idiot...)...that only southern schools can compete for national titles in football...it's all bullshit...if you have a program that commits to winning...hires a solid coach...with solid facilities...you can win. FUCK THE SEC...FUCKING OVERRATED...OVERRATED FUCKS...

Wiz, someday you need to post your true feelings about the SEC ...

heh

The Big10 needs to make the commitment to bring in top coaches and their staffs. It ain't like we're hurting for money...and with the new tv contract taking effect soon, we're only getting richer

Compare how much the SEC spends on football compared to the BIG... And then look at how much they don't spend on other sports

I don't want to see the B10 cut spending on other sports. The sheer volume of scholarship sports the B10 offers is, IMO, it's best collective feature. They're going to have gads of money, though. They should be able to put MORE into money sports without taking away from non-scholarship stuff.

Can we vote Iowa out?

Ferentz needs to retire. Record since their last very good team (2009) has been very mediocre.

I feel like I've said "Ferentz needs to retire" about 5 years in a row now and he manages to keep hanging around.

Most of these coaches lose steam after a decade.

Iowa can't afford to lose Ferentz. It's not like they can go out and hire a 3-time B10 COY.

Speaking of which, one of my favorite tweets last night was to the effect..."imagine how badly OSU would be winning if they were led by B10 CoY Jerry Kill...."

[entropy]

Kill is doing amazing things at Minny. Good coach

Kirk seems tired.

Kill is a very good coach. I mock the B10's CoY award.

[Dr. Strangelove]

Ferentz has been there the same length of time as Stoops has been at Oklahoma.

I propose that this thread's name be returned to its original state.

Baby steps....

Baby steps....

It was Iowa, wasn't it?

Frerentz has always been overrated. Always. He is a lousy recruiter, a decent developer of talent, and an abysmal game manager.
