Iowa Beat Writers

I've said this for years. Big Ten fans have always had this attitude that the B1G is just this top to bottom meat grinder in football and basketball. BTN has absolutely fueled that ego's because it's non stop propaganda.

And this false sense of 'prestige' and 'class' that goes with those schools while there's HUGE scandals abound at different places.
 
I didn’t know that but it’s not surprising lol Creighton’s literally a basketball school in a conference that’s only basketball. Iowa fans in Hassel’s mentions were still calling them a mid-major..
He knows better than to work for gene Smith.

Outside of wrestling, the big 10 is mediocre at best in the rest of the sports
 
Speaking of B1G lunacy....


What a jackass. Methinks Old Tom was feeling insecure in the presence of his Big 12 Daddies. Welcome to real competition, *****.

Kakert talking about how tight the rims are, and how he and Chad talked last night about the how the provided Wilson balls felt "rubbery" and "street."

Because of this thread I listened to this morning’s Morning Rush. One caller called in to say he had to listen to the game on the radio and realized that Gary Dolphin is a terrible play by play guy. He’s too slow, calls plays late.

Didnt everyone already know this?

I vividly remember a time that Bobby Hanson had to correct Dolph on air.
Dolph: And Northwestern continues their sticky, man-to-man defense.......
Bobby: No Gary, that's a 1-3-1 zone.

It is probably perpetually the year 2000 in his mind. You know, the last time he or the Big 10 were really all that relevant.
 
I've never liked that angry little man
He should be happy he got gifted a home game in the 2000 Elite Eight and still holds the Big Ten’s most recent national title. What an embarrassment that it has been 23 years (and counting) since that leagues last national championship considering how much TV revenue each team brings in and influence they have in seeding.

I think he has coached too long. I used to hold him and Michigan State in high regard. I considered them a borderline blue blood. That sentiment has slowly gone away over the last 10 or so years. And meanwhile, he continues to yell at refs, his players etc. break clip boards, give sound byte press conferences etc. He is basically short Fran McCaffrey but with a championship and more tourney success.
