Loebarth Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I'm not disagreeing with you @FrantzHardySwag I'm simply stating that IMO athlete safety out weights competitive risks. Keep the athlete's safe while allowing them to compete. Might seem foolish (does seem foolish) when discussing a 40 min trip but i'm ok with it if it keeps our athletes healthy. Besides, I've yet to hear any of our athletes complaining. The only complaints are coming from the public boards.. Quote Link to comment

I think a majority of B1G players will be disappointed they won't get to experience a full season. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Still doesn't justify risking the health of athletes... (and again, like you, I too am not happy the difference is, I'm ok with conference only, better this than no season at all.)

Yep, a pathetic F'ing conference. It's not like they could've started meetings about it months ago. Can we join the Big XII just for baseball? lol Quote Link to comment
FrantzHardySwag Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Moos confirms the ADs voted for conf only games. Guess the other ADs didn’t want to find/pay for 10 more midweek bus rides to better their programs and please their student athletes. I hate this conf more by the day. 1 Quote Link to comment

nublackshirt00 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 This is 100% about saving $ for the conference. If the NCAA baseball tournament generated the payout the basketball tournament does, there would be nonconference games galore, and the schedule would've been published long ago. Bolt has to be chewing nails on how the conference treats this sport. 1 Quote Link to comment

I’m not kidding when I say big 10 has pretty much ruined Husker athletics for me. Our style doesn’t fit in in football, we’re not good enough to be a factor in basketball, and they don’t give a s#!t about baseball. Changing conferences was dumb as s#!t minus the money - which the average fan could care less about. 2 Quote Link to comment
Loebarth Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I'm sure I'm not alone here but dang, where's the media here. Why no outside media pressure addressing the ineptitude of B1G conference leadership. We're 3 weeks out from first pitch and still no schedule news.. The CWS is represented by a B1G conference team 2 years ago (runner up to the championship but still..) and it's like the conference doesn't know the sport exists. WTH B1G? Media.. do your job and start asking the questions please and thank you!! 1 Quote Link to comment
nublackshirt00 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I agree on the lack of media coverage. I know Gary Sharp went on a little rant last week on 1620, but it's been mostly crickets. Guess we need some baseball families to pool some cash and put Mike Flood on retainer. Quote Link to comment
