Will you die before you see the Axe come back to Minnesota?
The one thing that everyone seems to be forgetting is that Donna Shalala was the president of Wisconsin when BA was hired. She gave him a carte blache as to admissions -marginal students were admitted, can you say Ron Dyne,, recruiting budget, pay to assistants, etc.. obviously he was successful and created the buzz saw we now know Becky football. Interestingly, she moved to Miami and did the same thing there. No President has the guts to back off this program. Yes, I am saying some marginal students can go to Wisconsin but not to the U. And yes they must followed the same Big Ten standards as the U but somehow bypass those standards. Talk to anyone in the admissions office and they will tell you names competing for Becky who were denied admission to the U. Happens all the time.

I'm 17 if the Gophers don't win in my lifetime I'll have to endure a lifetime of taunting from my Badger friends. I pray the Gophers win in the next 5 years or heck sometime in my lifetime.
Since I'm in my mid 60's, no I'll probably be gone. Damn

BS Pete.
Indiana, Northwestern and UW have the toughest admission standards for student athletes in the B1G.
Andersen left UW because he couldn’t get some of his flunky JuCo recruits through admissions. Your post was just factually wrong.
What does overall acceptance rate have to do with football players? Every school - every single one - makes admissions exceptions for football players. Are we really casting stones after admitting Jeff Jones as a non-qualifier?
