    Jeremy Roach entering portal while declaring for the draft

    That would be great, but I suspect if Roach transfers it is not going to be to a school like Northwestern. I think NIL would be a key factor in this case. I imagine Chris will at least ask - we have a lead guard role that's open for someone like him - but this seems like a very long shot.

    How Northwestern's lakefront stadium went from a dream to reality

    Couldn't have put it better myself. The article is highly charitable in citing Gragg as a key person supporting this measure, when the actual text and story itself makes it clear that he did almost nothing to push it forward himself, only being passenger that was willing to be pulled along for...

    So Now that Hoops Over... What the Heck is Happening with 2024 Place to Play

    If that's not a straw man of a choice then I don't know what is! Congrats on hitting the #1 logical fallacy for arguments today!

    So Now that Hoops Over... What the Heck is Happening with 2024 Place to Play

    The last sentence I think is the most likely point here... Soldier would likely have been willing to reserve at least one home date for us, maybe 2-3. I'm pretty certain Soldier would have been willing to push the MLS aside for a couple potential home dates. I suspect we just didn't contact...

    So Now that Hoops Over... What the Heck is Happening with 2024 Place to Play

    Ha yeah but don't you think if we had planned more than 6 months in advance when we knew this was coming for 2 years, that Soldier might have prioritized 2-3 dates for college football games and then had the MLS schedulers work around them (or told the Fire they had to play at SeatGeek those...

    So Now that Hoops Over... What the Heck is Happening with 2024 Place to Play

    Somehow when Illinois went through the phase of playing their NU @IL games at Soldier Field they managed to secure Soldier Field dates ahead of time...

    NU FB lawsuits

    Good for Coach Fitz. Suck all you can out of these clowns. And please please please get ggarg and shill to resign before you sign the settlement. Maybe even donate 10% of the settlement to the NIL group for NU student athletes. Signed with thanks, A Northwestern fan (PS Go Cats this is home...

    So I googled

    Considering the team practices there regularly, I imagine the football folks have an idea of the typical and range of winds along the lake and how that could impact play. Might even give us a bit of additional home field advantage at the margin! Adding the temporary stands in could make a...

    Do you pull for the B10 @ the final 4

    I will cheer for Purdue. I want to see UConn vs Purdue just as a basketball fan, feels like they are on a collision course they we know that anything can happen in a 40 minute game in the semis. Will cheer for Purdue to get the B1G monkey off our back - been >20 years since MSU Mateen Cleaves...

    NU section

    Haven’t heard back from ticket rep yet. Does anyone have intel on what the NU section is tomorrow?

    Survive and advance.

    Ryan Langborg, thanks for coming to Evanston. I believe he temporarily shifted to another planet in the 2nd half and OT. Floaters, mid-range, and then the dagger 3's in OT. What a performance. They were doubling Boo, and Boo being Boo he got his anyways. But we desperately needed some...

    Key stat of the game

    Key stat of the game - Ryan Langborg’s shooting numbers in the 2nd half plus OT. Might have been 10 for 10 roughly?

    UCONN Tip Time?

    Based on my knowledge of the scheduling patterns I think given we have the #1 CBS crew there’s a decent chance we have an afternoon game

    Brooklyn, we did it! ROLL CALL: who else is going?

    During the day it’s generally fine. You might find a homeless person sleeping there or asking for money or ranting but when it’s busy there’s safety in numbers. Or just generally the weirdos / drugged out folks don’t do bad stuff during the light of day. Would not advise taking the subway late...

    Article by Boo on TrueNU

    Incredible article. Also, perfect choice, sparingly, or which videos to show. The all time points record. The Boo growing up story. And the walk off 3. Love Dave Revsine’s call. They stick him in the studio far too often, he’s the best calling games. Here’s to Boo and the boys creating another...

    Purple turnout in Brooklyn

    I’m not talking about Sunday. I will see you there on Friday. Let’s go 1-0. But anecdotally, yes, I think we will have a solid turnout. Let’s extend Boo’s NU career as long as we can.

    Big Ten O/U

    I think it’s basically a bet on Purdue and Illinois. I would take over 8 personally but that’s a pretty narrow one. I like Miss St over Mich St. Neb aTm I view as a tossup. If I had to pick I would take us over FAU but there’s some bias. Call that 1.5 wins. You either need IL to get 3 wins or...

    Brooklyn, we did it! ROLL CALL: who else is going?

    I have friends in town from various places and promised someone who is flying in that I’d stay through the UW game which starts at 9:40… and might pretend to do like an hour of work in the AM while mainly thinking about matchups for the cats game and moving my cursor around and responding to...

    Pate

    Thanks for posting - sorry this seems like a dumb question, but just to check I'm reading this correctly - he is coming back for one more season? At most parts it read like a retrospective on his past (and last) season, but at the end it seemed like he was looking forward to one more year. If...
