Jeez at least use AI to make it read better. Honestly though the Big Ten and SEC need to come together and agree to not settle these kinds of cases. Otherwise there will be no stopping it

Yep. Best case scenario is 8-9 years that’s how long between moneyball and the As. I do expect an author to try and get a book out on this team asap before next season even.

It still doesn’t feel real. I also miss the days of commutative DVDs slash movies at the end of a season. I don’t wanna wait for the Hollywood movie

Only player to have a +28 Win differential season to season.

True but some of our top guys including our QB didn’t get to bask in that successful. They have to contend with proving they can be part of a special team as well.

Based on your phrasing guessing you failed

Yep but if they did their job off the field as well as they did their job on the field they have taught the next gen of players

I’m honestly shocked they spent 78 million. Much less enough to have that large a deficit? Are they using gold in the weight room or something?

I’m gonna rewatch the Penn state game tonight in its entirety. It and Illinois were the only games I missed live.

True. But our hardest game is almost certainly in Bloomington. And then our next 3 hardest games. Washington, Michigan and USC all have giant question marks. Let’s just say I think I’m going to buy big ten championship tickets and run the risk

Yep and frankly I think we have an easier schedule.

Yep. For Cuban it’s the experience too. He donates a rounding error of his personal worth and he gets to be part of the team. Down on the sidelines. He gets to point to Josh Hoover everytime he scores a TD to Nick Marsh and tell all his buddies he made that happen. He gets exposure and to have a blast.

A real life Benny hill sketch.

Yep. After the 2027 draft 3 Cig QBs. 5 WRs and a bunch of defensive players

I couldn’t keep myself from cheering for Mendoza if I even wanted to. And considering the Colts can’t even figure out how to tank effectively gonna guess Raiders will be relevant before the colts

It’s amazing how quickly Notre Dame have turned themselves into THE group to dunk on. Purdue hasn’t won a Big Ten game in two seasons and Notre Dame is still more fun to make fun of.

Good for him. Watching highlights for the season I think he was better than Waffle House tbh. But generally it was pretty even. Next man up. That WR from Michigan blanking on his name has a chance to be a key piece

Just read thru a GT message board. They knew he was transferring on the 18th. At least an insider knew but didn’t outright say it. I appreciate that. Could have caused unwanted noise. A few of them are worried that this is more of a tryout with the plan to potentially return to Indiana.

Yeah my guts were twisted the whole 4th quarter. Sooo stressed. I’m not sure we are even giving the coaching staff their due for how well they outcoached Miami. We had 3 timeouts in the second half 1st - 4th and 5 completion to Becker 2nd - That kid not good enough for Miamis dive 3rd - The other kid not good enough for Miami picking off Beck 3 Second half timeout and we came out with essentially the best case scenario on each play. Miami had the same time to talk to their players and couldn’t get it done.

Any clue what Hoovers is currently?

I’d imagine all this merch is probably 8-9 in total sales figures. You had people buying Big ten merch. Rose bowl merch and NC merch. Not to mention we got 20 million for going to the NC game. We keep 1.1 million of that. We get about 2.3 if you factor in the shares we get because of OSU and Oregon making the playoffs

Arena football is alot different than domed stadiums. And I think anybody who’s being serious would understand that without an explanation.

Comparing pre cig numbers for context. But he’s been a higher volume passer with similar completion percentage

How much money does the university get from all the merch people have bought? Coffers have to be fuller than ever before
