    Love it Coach Collins

    Chicago Tribune story does not tell why Collins got so mad to get ejected, leaving the impression Collins was just a sore loser. It seems like the writer did not see the game and the non call on Purdue at the end. Pretty bad journalism to focus on the ejection without clarifying the reason...

    Big Guys

    I think Nicholson does have the size that impacts parts of the game especially against other Bigs that may not always show up in the stats sheet but have an impact on the game. Having a couple of good Bigs has been beneficial to keep them from being tired or in foul trouble and the team has...

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. No. 6 Penn State

    That was the talk of the tailgate after the game. What a classless move, up by 21 points PSU pretends to take a knee up by 21 and the defense hesitates giving up another touchdown. . Speculation was whether it will be investigated as that was the difference in beating the spread for gambling...

    The Case for Coach Fitzgerald being Reinstated

    No matter how wrong NU turns out to be in firing Fitz, the University would never reinstate him. That would require the President and Board to acknowledge that they were wrong and threw an innocent guy under the bus to respond to bad press. They will pay him a large settlement under legal...

    A defense of Schill and Gragg

    How do they explain that things were so bad that Fitz had to be fired, even if he did not know, but all the assistant coaches have been retained and no players have been punished or removed? And the AD, who also oversaw the baseball mess and did nothing until this blew up, keeps his job with no...

    Fitz fights back

    Hard to argue you are firing someone for cause, when just two days before the University signs an agreement that the sanction is a two week suspension.

    Let’s Tailgate

    Nicest couple, they have been a great part of the fabric of NU supporters. I can see how the idea of rent for the next couple of years with uncertainty about the football stadium location is a good time to pack it in. Looking forward to seeing them in the stands. NU should give them a pair of...

    Rittenberg: Collins close to three-year extension

    Great news, love to see him have a firm perch for recruiting and hopefully he is able to take some of the learning from the past couple of years and grow the upside

    New Players / Changes to game plan?

    Based on the new roster, do we think the basic game plan changes for next year? Is Big Matt more of a focus for NU and opposition teams?

    Rittenberg: Collins close to three-year extension

    Great season, but let’s remember the last game determined 2nd place or 8th place. It was a logjam in the middle. Just shows how close the BIG was this year

    Next year…Martinelli

    Just returned from Sacramento, what a great experience to be there. Some good comments on the board about the progress of Nicholson and Barnhizer that I agree with. One more pleasant surprise was Martinelli, who really started to look like he belonged in the second half of the season. Not...

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

    I think they used to offer discounted football tickets to young alums. Maybe do that for the nosebleed seats above if they are not selling. Or sell young Alum 4 packs, two preseason two BIG10. There are things that you can do that lower the threshold for getting tickets in NU hands, and more...

    Whoa: PAC ## targeting SDSU and SMU

    Tulane should be in play for higher profile opportunities. I was excited about NU playing them in 2024, but it may be a break if that gets cancelled, they will be a real challenge.

    Most improved Cat this year?

    Who has improved the most over this year? Big Matt, Barnheiser, kind of like Martinelli’s progress too. Whats your vote?

    Give Collins an extension

    Never should have had the public “needs to make progress” from the AD. That was dumb. At least acknowledge the progress and give him some tools to continue the progress

    Fire Fitz. Hire Kafka

    Kafka will get his shot soon, hopefully he picks a good situation with a team on the rise. No sense in getting the horse shot out from under him by joining a team ready for blowing up
