    CONFIRMED: Lakefront Temporary Stadium is a GO

    Why announce now, before the "what games will actually be played here?" piece is finalized? I assume part of it is just to try to show that there's a plan in place. But is part of it also to get better leverage in negotiations with other venues? ie - yes, we DO have another option, so you do...

    Boo Buie NIL deal with Evanston Epic Burger

    but what if we beat a B1G opponent in the tourney? if anything, that should count double! (although a double might be called a Boo Boo burger, which doesn't have the same appeal I suppose . . . )

    Bricks near the Wildcat statue are doomed

    parking bricks in the West Lot would require a minimum donation of $600.

    No Langborg tonight (FOR THE MARYLAND GAME)

    Hopefully that means he'll be good to go (FOR THE IOWA GAME).

    No Langborg tonight (FOR THE MARYLAND GAME)

    Can we agree to not reply to this thread tomorrow, in the name of not causing unnecessary panic when everyone sees "No Langborg tonight" at the top of the messages list?

    Is this a new signing/commit?

    He's been listed on the (not Rock) commitment list for a little bit now. https://northwestern.rivals.com/commitments/football/2025

    Miller Kopp Jinx?

    I think we should invite him to the next NU/IU game in Evanston to formally thank him. The fact that he's our lucky charm aside, think of how magical it would be to have Gragg at center court welcoming an old fan favorite during one of the media timeouts. I bet the crowd would go wild!

    IT'S OFFICIAL NOW - NORTHWESTERN CONFIRMS/ANNOUNCES - BRAUN IS OUR NEW HEAD COACH

    Full acknowledgement that in the era of buy-out clauses, the contract length isn't necessarily indicative of much in terms of how long a coach will be around. But I think contract length is very much relevant to recruiting, even if it's more about perception than reality.

    IT'S OFFICIAL NOW - NORTHWESTERN CONFIRMS/ANNOUNCES - BRAUN IS OUR NEW HEAD COACH

    as a HS recruit, would you want to commit to a coach with a 2 or 3 year contract, knowing that your college career is more likely 4-5 years?

    2024 schedule

    I mean . . . it's probably a disadvantage for Michigan to be coming off a bye week. They won't have illegal recordings from the week before to review?

    a small win for Northwestern marketing . . .

    The link on ESPN's homepage reads "Fitzgerald suing NU for $130M for wrongful firing." at least ESPN said NU, and not NW? :cool:

    So how much are we favored by?

    Hard to get a read on that second one. . . impressive for their offense, or terrible for their defense?

    Hindsight is ... good for a laugh

    I do remember that impressive victory in the Minnesota @ Northwestern game, but it was 39-0. (and they got the victor wrong.)

    Home-and-home series scheduled with Dayton for 2023 and 2024

    I would suspect that having a team with veteran leadership feels like an early season advantage, so perhaps that's contributing to the willingness to increase in quality of OOC opponents as well?

    Chase

    Didn't Boo say he could hear the IU coaches yelling to force him to go left when he was getting ready to complete the season sweep of the Hoosiers? (I thought it was an interesting comment, and obviously not advice that worked out super well for IU anyhow since he was still able to go right and...

    Seriously. What can be done to prevent being outnumbered by visiting fans?

    When you buy tickets, it says something to the effect of it being prohibited to buy tickets with the intent to re-sell. And then the school has the ability to, at its sole discretion, cancel your tickets with no refund if you're doing this. I'm sure that policing this can get tricky, but if you...
