In case anyone wants to see the map.

I actually sort of miss the leaders and legends divisions.

They have a history, but no. Pitt is the closest thing to a PSU rival I can think of. When I lived in Syracuse, they thought they were Penn State’s rival. Penn State didn’t care about Syracuse. I don’t think Penn State has a rival in the Big Ten yet.

Excellent find. Makes perfect sense. Great slam on Rutgers. Princeton leads 53-17-1.

Who is Rutgers rival? Is that some NJ high school team I don’t know about?

I have heard this as well. Not sure IU is patient enough for John to build a program. Michigan was in purgatory when he started so they had no choice.

Too bad. He’s a good guy. Wonder if he will retire or go back to college.

Ironic that the tweet has #Culture given where he is going.

He has a 5 and 7 record and is getting paid 5,000,000+. The only way you’re going to get a coach at the MSU dumpster fire is to pay big bucks. Top 10 paid coach now, I believe, although don’t quote me on that.

Luke Fickell turns down MSU because of concerns on campus https://www.freep.com/story/sports/college/michigan-state/spartans/2020/02/10/michigan-state-football-coaching-search-luke-fickell/4714187002/ Smart man...that campus is full of toxic inbreeding and cover ups. MSU needs to clean house or they are done. Actually not a bad idea.

Case and point. 2015 three basketball players that got swept under the rug. https://www.mlive.com/spartans/2020/02/michigan-attorney-general-investigating-2015-msu-basketball-sexual-assault-claim.html Izzo is next...

MSU has hidden lots of assualts. They still haven't paid the price for Nassar molesting 100s of female athletes. The basketball program had similar issues and accusations. They tend to keep the investigations internal and settle with the victims. Someone said 'the Baylor of the Big Ten". Good analogy. Sounds like Narduzzi is out of the running. I have heard Dantonio is sticking around the athletic program and promoting his assistant Tressel (not that Tressel, but related) as the next head coach. Fickell might be better off at Cincy.

In favor...but the rich will get richer through poaching. They should not allow the free transfer mid-season.

This is funny...but then I started to wonder if Frank was being sarcastic too...which is also funny. I guess I am good. Thanks for the laughs fellas.

Never had hazing of any kind when playing sports...or anywhere...what is wrong with people.

Anyone who would even threaten doing that is sick in the head.

It's so NU can catch a breather ( including Rutgers) before crap hits the fan.

Maybe that is one of the reasons why Michigan rarely gets a top 5 class. They have had a number of freshman bow out due to academics as well. One was a 5 star kid that ended up in prep school.

Did recruiting standards go up when NU joined the Big 10? Just curious.

the Big ten has 3 maybe 4 bowls wins.

3 and 6. Maybe 4 wins. What the heck is Michigan doing playing Bama? Why is that not PSU or Wiscy? I guess maybe Michigan was 4th in the Big Ten on the CPF rankings, but they should be below Minny record wise.

I see 6 wins easy. One of Purdue/Cincy, SDSU, CMU, one of NW/Illini, Rutgers, one of Wiscy/Minny/Iowa.

Done deal!

Man you guys are pessimistic. I see 6 wins and a bowl game. Of course, I picked 8 wins this year.
