Safe to say, Braun has to win 5 games next year with a brutal schedule to be back in 2026.

Meh. Braun is safe. Nobody cares about NUFB. NU ain’t competing for the playoffs anytime soon.

I don’t see how your headline and comment relate whatsoever. I do think the infusion of new resources raises the bar for Braun. Idk if there is a specific number of wins, but if the powers that be invest like that and get no results changes will be requested.

Fitz to Purdue?

Fitz to Purdue?

He has about a hundred million reasons not to go there.

Exactly.

 

[FanatiCat]

Exactly.

I suspect he’s looking to settle his lawsuit and then go for the Iowa job.

Maybe, but now way of knowing at this point.

Simple. Purdue gave Walter’s two years and saw the future in front of them.

Moving into the palace and a golden age for NU basketball, women’s lacrosse, softball, golf and field hockey, mediocrity is no longer acceptable.

The excitement from the stadium alone will not carry beyond the non conference schedule in 2026.

If we win 1-3 games in 2025 the headwinds going into that new stadium will be fierce. All the stories will not be about moving into a palace but rather why is a football program in the NCAA, that stinks, spending all that money. The positive story will be a negative PR mess.

Meh, I was just told nobody cares about NUFB.

Sure Jeff. WTF are you even here? All we have heard for two years is how pathetic we are as fans. You never miss an opportunity to lambast Fitz, and I think I am the one that will need counselors after hearing how abused all the former players were by ironically one of their own!

There were 7 "home games" this season and I was one that was there for each of them just as I have been for all but 3 home games in the last 30 years. Looks to be harder to justify going forward and it was hard enough this year
