    All Things TV Series Recommendations/Reviews

    Don't worry you aren't alone on Pawn Stars. It's amazing to see what some stuff goes for, also Clumlee might the most unintentional funny person on TV. A couple of other shows that are in that reality TV vein that I love are Deadliest Catch and Gold Rush. I know every Deadliest Catch episode...

    All Things TV Series Recommendations/Reviews

    I can't believe no body has mentioned Mad Men yet. IMO it's the best show on TV, although I will admit I haven't watched The Wire. Amazing cast, Jon Hamm is great as Don Draper, John Slattery is also great as Roger Sterling, hell everyone is great. Plus January Jones looks amazing, and...

    Volleyball takes down No. 4 Texas in three

    Nebraska lost to Colorado St last night and have had a bunch of close 3-2 matches so far this year against teams like Wichita State and New Mexico State. In fairness Colorado St is ranked 15th, but maybe Nebraska isn't the volleyball powerhouse we seen the past few years. As for Penn State...

    Hockey and the Big Ten

    First sorry Mr. Gopher for not getting back to you sooner. But no there are no rumors that Purdue will add hockey as a varsity sport. They do have a club team but there isn't an indoor ice rink in Lafayette or West Lafayette. For Purdue to add a varsity hockey team it would take a Penn State...

    Hockey and the Big Ten

    I'm just going to play devil's advocate but what is the roll of teams like Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Michigan State? It's to basically finance or bank roll the rest of college hockey or to gain as much revenue as possible for their schools? If you were an Athletic Director with a...

    Weekend Wrapup

    O$U sneeks another one out, Purdue handles MSU, NW forgets to show up, Michigan is unfamiliar with any shot inside the 3 point line, and finally IU sets basketball back a decade. Anyone with thoughts on the weekend that was in B10 basketball? Who looked good, who looked bad, what players stood...

    Volleyball Head Coach search

    Any indication if the U is looking internally to fill this position or externally? And if they are looking externally would they get someone familiar with the program(former player or assistant coach)?

    Reseating

    I know this is a hot button topic on this board and people are always comparing Minnesota to other B10 schools but the other day Purdue released it's new preferred seating policy. They are reseating Mackey after this year(so one year before Williams) but the new cost for 4 lower bowl seats...

    All B10 Team

    I have had some time to relax and think during X-mas break and I've been putting together the best B10 team I could think of. The only requirements is that you have 13 scholarships and the players have to be a current scholarship player for a B10 team, assuming everyone is healthy. So far here...

    Illinois-Missouri

    Looks like the Illini are going to lose to Mizzou. This is a tough lass for Bruce Weber and co. If anyone caught the last minute + the ref's took the game out of the players hand with the intentional foul call. While, I think it was the correct call, the ref's decided the game instead of...

    NCAA Volleyball Tournament

    Well, Penn State came though making to the Final Four. And the evidence continues to mount that God hates Purdue as the Boilermakers loses to Texas 3-1. Purdue's star setter went down with a hamstring injury towards the end of the 1st. Prior to that Purdue was playing great and really taking...

    NCAA Volleyball Tournament

    NCAA Volleyball Tournament

    While I don't know enough about FSU than Florida going by seeding I would have rather played the 'Noles. But it is something outside my-and Purdue volleyball control-so you really can't worry about it. Hopefully the Boilers can come out and play well vs the Gators and possibly get the victory.

    NCAA Volleyball Tournament

    If there was any doubt about how good B10 volleyball is they got 8(!!!) teams into the tourney. Penn State is the #4 overall seed, Illinois is #8, the Gopher are #10, and Purdue is #16. Northwestern, Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio State all made the tourny but are not seeded. And that doesn't...

    Lighting

    I'm watching the game on the BTN and it lighting just seams really really dark. Are all the lights on? I don't think the athletic department is dumb enough to build a brand new stadium with lights with out consulting the BTN, ESPN, and ABC about how much light they need for HD broadcasts...

    Bud Foster

    Just tossing his name out there. He has be Frank Beamer's long time DC. Can anyone remember the last time Va Tech has had a bad D? While some think(including myself) that he will take over when Frank Beamer's retires but that might not be for a while. If I were in a position to suggest names...

    College Gameday

    College Gameday just mentioned Marc Trestmen and Scott Linehan as potential HC's for the Gophers. I wouldn't read much into it but just a FYI.

    Gibson-Nagurski Football Complex

    With all the talk about the commitment to the football program that the U has shown with TCF Bank Stadium does anyone know what state the Gibson-Nagurski Football Complex is in? Does it need a full scale renovation, does it need some work here and there, does it need a fresh coat of paint and...
