    NU FB lawsuits

    Completely agree. I thought he should have been let go due to his coaching record since 2019. They could have let him resign or give him a job title in the AD. He deserved far better treatment from the admin.

    NU FB lawsuits

    I would imagine most if not all are both. I certainly am. A player and coach who devoted most of his life to the school (and was handsomely compensated for it), abruptly fired by someone brand new to the school. How this was handled by the admin will be a case study on how not to handle a crisis.

    NU FB lawsuits

    Not a lawyer but I have been around. If this was a “normal” case where the defendant was looking for max dollars, I would say this case Gets settled with a non-disclosure. I don’t think Fitz is looking for max money. He is looking for some type of redemption (you have people on this board...

    If it’s not disclosed, then the bet is canceled. Forget the handle. No posting for 6 months.

    The amount remaining on his contract was $68mm. I’ll take the over. What’s the bet.

    NU FB lawsuits

    Let’s have a little fun. Fitz is suing for $130mm. Let’s ignore the time value component. Let’s make a wager on the amount he gets. What’s a fair over/under?

    Is Gragg our Beckman?

    If Schill left the decision to reprimand Fitz to Gragg, he should be fired immediately. Also, Schill said he was the one who made the decision to terminate Fitz (not sure if Schill was also the one who decided a 2 week suspension was befitting the “crime”). Either way, any pinxishment for the...

    At The Watch Party

    Did JP run over your dog? He was a fantastic AD because an AD’s primary jobs are hiring the right coaches and raising money. He was excellent at both. As for his ACC leadership, he is trying to play poker with a 10 high hand. The TV deal Signed by the prior commissioner will go down as one of...

    Getting off the 8/9 line

    If you don’t see NU beating Marquette, then you really don’t see them beating Houston. UH is the one team I really really don’t want to see cats matched up against. Way too many athletes.

    Michigan st at 25 is absurd. That win over Baylor is doing some heavy lifting.

    BTT, Tournament

    Agreed. I have no idea what the love for wisconsin is all about. A 6 seed in the NCAA tourney?! Tgey have one marquee win (Marquette). Their next best win is NU, then probably Nebraska. They are 2-4 against the top of BIG (tgey only played Illinois once). I watched their last 2 games. They...

    NU took Purdue to OT and also beat them. There is a big difference to beating someone and almost beating someone. NU was the king of hanging close with good teams (at home) but ultimately losing. Moral victories don’t count.

    As an opponent,I would prefer to play the team with the lower ceiling, higher floor. NU clearly has a very high ceiling (beat the #1 overall seed once and took them to OT second game, bear a very good Illinois team, smoked a good Nebraska team). It shows that they can play with the best. A...

    I agree, because who won the game should be the most important factor.

    Again, I know what the Net is (this might be the longest thread in NU Rivals history). You are the one who said losing to Chicago st was a big problem but in reality, who won didn’t matter. I ( and manu others) are pointing out how flawed it is.

    NU did not dig themselves a hole because they lost to CSU, they dug themselves a hole because they did not beat them by 20. If they won the game by 1, it wouldn’t move the Net much, if at all. The fact that the Net doesn’t factor in who actually won the game (you know, the whole point of...

    Depends on your definition of bubble. Bubble to me is the team would not definitely be in if the season ended today. NU is definitely in if the season ended today. Another definition for bubble could be a team could play its way out (unlike say Houston, Purdue, UConn). In that case, NU, like...
