Our permanent rival is Purdue ffs...we command respect.

I think it's going to be a good game. Iowa has been a good really good team the last couple of years and I think it's the Best Rivalry for Nebraska in the Big 10.

Oh yea, that. Well Iowa-Nebraska will be pretty good, but it's got nothing on IOwa-Purdue. The rivalry so good that neither knew it ever existed...

Good news for Minnesota receiver Brandon Green, who has been granted a medical hardship waiver by the Big Ten.
Green played in two games in 2010 before suffering a season-ending knee injury. The 2010 season won't count against Green's eligibility, and he'll have two seasons left with the Gophers.

Iowa receiver Marvin McNutt will miss spring practices after undergoing surgery on a thumb and shoulder recently, according to the Cedar Rapids Gazette.
McNutt, a senior, led the Hawkeyes with 53 catches for 861 yards. He was the target of many passes for quarterback Ricky Stanzi, who is at the NFL Combine.
Iowa will have to break in new quarterback James Vandenberg without McNutt's help.

Iowa-Nebraska game will be played the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Most Iowa fans are pissed, and when I first thought about it during the season I didn't like it. But I actually don't mind it now. Hopefully they can build a pretty sweet rivalry. At least a better one than Wisconsin/PSU-Nebraska would have ever been.

Well...
1. A bunch hate Nebraska and never wanted them in the Big 10 because they are like 800 years old.
2. They think Big Ten football should only be played on Saturday because they're old.
3. They apparently plan on traveling home from wherever at like 7 or 8 pm on the Friday night it will be played.
4. They think it's gimmicky.
In short, they are either grumpy old people or idiots, or mostly both.

Supposedly JT heard allegations of the Tat5 dopes in April.
It wouldn't surprise me if he did hear about it and decided to not pursue it. The man isn't a saint. OTOH, who gives a crap?
Regardless, this really seems like an unsubstantiated hit piece, one that is almost unprovable.

Rumors that the poo may really be hitting the fan at OSU. We'll see.
Haters get ready to rejoice!

Actually, I agree. It would be very difficult to prove.
I mean, he probably get's inundated with allegations of misdoings. And I assume he passes those on. I doubt that they compliance guys look too deep into things.
Some conspiracy types think that Delany was behind the whole getting them to play in the SB deal. And that, by extension, he made OSU sit on this for the season since OSU was a contender. Conspiracy theorists are funny.

Lots of news coming out concerning Jim Tressel, Ohio State, and the players that sold memorabilia for tattoos. Some speculating that Tressel will resign tonight at his presser (97.1 The Fan out of Ohio).
Yahoo reported last night that Tressel knew as early as April that he knew about what Pryor and others were doing. If this is proven so then Ohio State could be in some serious **** with the NCAA.
Presser tonight with Tressel, Gordon Gee, and others.

Tressel isn't going resign. The press conference is just going to be an excuse as to why they didn't go to the NCAA sooner.

Yeah, there is no way they would get rid of him this way.
Also, the whole thing is hilarious. We have schools paying kids hundreds of thousands of dollars in the SEC and the NCAA does absolutely NOTHING.
OSU has some kids selling the merchandise that they OWNED getting in trouble. Which is fine, but it pales in comparison to Cam Newton.
And now this almost unprovable crap. Even if it did happen 1) big whoop and 2) how can you prove that he ignored it? He probably gets dozens of these complaints a week and sends them off to compliance.

Apparently the big 10 can't top the SEC in football or in sneakily cheating.

Unfortunately the Big Ten appears to have a conscience... a problem the SEC has never had

For someone who claims to be a Miami Hurricanes fan, you certainly are all over the SEC's dick every chance you get. If you're not a fan of a team that plays in the SEC why is their superiority to the Big Ten so important to you?
