Calling my shot now — Sat March 2 Winner-take-all Top 25 College Gameday title game in Rogers Park

The "hardcore" fans who say they won't go to Bradley games because of the bad non conference schedule are also the same "hardcore" NFL fans who said they quit watching when the kneeling during the anthem stuff happened. There, I corrected that for you tribe. You forgot to put the quotes around hard...

https://www.google.com/amp/s/deadspin.com/5675694/prelude-to-a-tragedy-how-a-notre-dame-student-died-and-why-he-shouldnt-have/amp Kelly's decision led directly to the death of a student videographer and he wasn't even punished. So yeah, ND clearly has different standards of conduct for their coache...

From secondhand experience of a relative’s recruiting process, Notre Dame is a lot more accommodating with admission standards than you’d probably think. Sure they don’t pull the stunts many schools do, but there’s no reason Notre Dame couldn’t be on top. Not finding the best fit at HC is the reason...

That excuse works for Army/Navy/Air Force and maybe Northwestern/Rice/Duke. The list ends there. The Stanford’s (under Harbaugh), Notre Dame’s, and Vanderbilt’s (under Franklin) have exhausted it.

And Michigan has the 5 toughest B1G teams (OSU, PSU, MSU, UW, N’western) plus Nebraska on the schedule. Drop 5 and lose the bowl - and Harbaugh’s 15-15 in his last 30 following Year 4.

I love Paul Finebaum spouting off on eSECpn about the evils of Ohio State. That would be like asking CNN to give an unbiased report on Trump. Or me to give an unbiased opinion of *ichigan. So you really think Paul Finebaum can’t have an opinion on this matter? Same with CNN as it relates to the Pre...

You forgot the granddaddy of them all.

Leathernecks and Mastadons visit Lantz. No word on if the Fighting Illini will return for a rematch, but we’ll likely need a Category 5 Hurricane to find out. Maybe CBSSN will pay the Charleston faithful another trip like last year.

Don’t sleep on Zorich.

Watch out DePaul!

Look who’s coming back to IL https://niuhuskies.com/schedule.aspx?path=mbball I vividly recall passing the caravan that traveled 74 to EIU 4 years ago. I’d honk when I saw the BU flags and they’d honk right back. 39 will see the effects of that caravan in December. Huge missed opportunity. Could’ve ...

Going pro in what?

Gearing up for 1st Round NBA pick.

Shows how much difference it makes when you call other schools and they don’t utter “JoAnne Glasser” and hang up.

Chicago St might not be the only D1 - or Illinois school - open.




Hinson for Governor?

Wardle and Reynolds worked relentlessly but were handcuffed by burned bridges from JoAnne Glasser.

Wardle open to a 2-for-1 but all buy games non-negotiable citing research.

Texas even has a running countdown for the game.

Add Austin to the Panthers’ road trips this fall (Peoria, Asheville tournament).

Chicago St AD Chris Zorich spoke at BOT meeting (FF to 47:45). Sounds like he’s taking his time to make sure this is done right. Remember Zorich didn’t start until June.

Thank God they pulled off SE Louisiana at the last minute.

All for a composite of computers (RPI, KenPom, Sagarin, Pairwise, etc) determining at-large teams. Computers don’t see names or color. They only see numbers and are the only ones truly unbiased. I was in the minority who loved the concept of the computer-controlled BCS and felt the real reason TPTB ...

Does anyone think the 2 for 1 with Ole Miss helped us by any means?! Not with the team that played Ole Miss those 3 years, but ... Imagine what it would have done for the team that was anticipated to play, led by Josh Cunningham and presumably growing stronger with more 3- and 4-star recruits attra...

All due respect, but a BCS/P5/6 school with Illinois State's RPI and conference record would not only have been in, they'd have been a 4 or higher seed. The argument against ISU that year was strength of schedule. That was *another* example of BC$/P5/6 bias -- because, again, they'd moved the goal ...
