With Warren silent for the last 8 days and new momentum for a new season being seen from multiple sources including a Milwaukee newspaper. Which teams are most likely to be in or out? Seems like playing still has some legs

In descending order :
Ohio state- legit national title contenders- consistently said they want to play
Nebraska- led the charge, unity of purpose. Bad taste in mouth from last 3 years- need positive traction
penn state- franklin has them on the move in the right direction, top 10 program, always in
iowa- consistently said they want to play. Always in.
wisconsin- legit top 15 program, been quiet, but looks like they’ve never been on board with not playing. Not sure, seems like a silent commit.
purdue-Brohm and company have been frustrated and a bit vocal. They are on positive territory under Brohm and want to move the momentum forward.
michigan- harbaugh wants to play. Mixed signals here. They can’t let Ohio state play and get left behind. But very liberal campus. Tough call.
below this line- very tough to call
indiana- great season last year, better Recuiting, conservative state. They are on the move
Michigan state - new coach, down season, woke campus. Probably not.
Easy calls from here on down
illinois- parents and kids want to play. Some momentum from last year. Don’t see it happening.
minnesota- great season. Too woke, fine with letting their area burn to the ground.
no chance
northwestern- nope. They think they are Chicago ivy league
maryland- no chance
rutgers- no chance
