Was Rudock ever apart of either the elite 11 or super 7 QB camps? all i know is he wasn’t named to either final roster, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t apart of them.

Oklahoma already had the door opened for them by the Pac 10/12. Granted, this was largely contingent on Texas coming along for the ride, but if they had offered it once, I wouldn’t be stunned to see a Pac 14 with the Okies on board in the near future. Texas seems Hell bent on independence with the ACC ready to have to weather the next round of conference cannibalism.

Exactly.

FSU leaving the ACC opens a whole can of worms. The ACC is full of new blood and old blood irritated with the state of the league (read: basketball). Their are no sacred cows in that conference at this point. Despite no legal union, I consider Duke and UNC bound at this point but after that all bets are off.

But Texas has already been down this road.

They’ve seen options that would leave them ultimately richer by jumping leagues, but they seem to prefer being more wealthy in comparison to their conference mates than those in other leagues. Their hubris is at a make-or-break stage right now; they either go it alone and enter a Notre Dame-esque golden age or they swallow their pride, abandon their sense of superiority and join a league like the SEC, Big Ten or Pac 12 on equal standing. Only the last one of those would even consider making exceptions.

I think that was the wedge ruling

The “wedge breaker” was at a higher risk of concussion. Are there that many concussion on returns for the other positions? I thought the concern was all of the unusual angles and running lanes that don’t happen on a regular play.

So here's the fun thing.

Post-A&M speculation. Let’s say Oklahoma sticks with Texas. Now you’ve got a league with Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Missouri at the top. Think about Kansas and Kansas State in this scenario. They’ve essentially got no shot at anything on the gridiron since they’ve got to play a true round robin every season. If they look East to TCU’s example of jumping clear across the country for a better opportunity…who’s going to get in their way? TCU, sure, they’re great, but after that? West Virginia? Surely K-State & Kanas have to like their chances against the likes of UConn, Pitt and Syracuse. And all of a sudden they’d both be in a league that emphasizes their sport of choice. If the Big 12 dips below 7 member schools everything falls apart.

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

But they don't have a choice.

The two Kansas’ have been established as a package deal. The other side of it is this; the old guard of the Big East actually wants to get bigger because it would allow for a division of the basketball conference into old and new. The two sides would actually never meet except for in their conference tourney which is exactly what Boeheim, Thompson Jr. & Calhoun want. They’re not happy with the state of things. This would enhance the already strong brand and give everyone what they want.

I think they would consider Missouri

While a blow to their prestige and and hurdle towards automatic qualification, the three may actually benefit long-term from such a deal.

Which I don't understand. Presumably, the bowl tie-ins for a 7-team league of Texas, Oklahoma

and a pile of shit would likely resemble…a pile of shit with cotton on top. Iowa State could stand to make hay in a conference with a genuine national name (Boise, it pains me to type that) and a bunch of team that they could stand a chance of beating. Plus, they’d be expanding into rapidly growing states (Colorado, Nevada and nobody would cry to recruit in California). Their long-term health could be much better out there.

I wonder

how much footage the U of I has? It seems like there are plenty of hoops, football, (and obviously wrestling) from the past that you never even see highlights of, much less the entire game.

Obviously, I’d bet they have a copy of everything since 1995 or 2000, but I’d think they could make some money if they started selling DVDs or online versions (ITunes) of old stuff. I’d probably buy a 1997 Hawkeye football video from ITunes if it were offered for less than $20.

Yeah, there were lots of good moments for Iowa, but lots of bummer moments, too.

I’d forgotten all about the Slaton pin until then. God, that was brutal. Surprised there was no Hendricks-Perry… THAT was fucking epic.

The Brands, McIlravy shots were neat. I popped for the Bubba celebration.

And ending the video with that Gable shot was tremendous.

So around 437 BC

An Etruscan Kind named Tolumnius killed four Roman envoys and invaded Roman Territory prompting the Romans to designate a dictator and march to war. During the battle a cavalry officer named Aulus Cornelius Cossus saw King Tolumnius on the field of battle and said the following: “So this is he who broke the comparct of man with mman and violated the law of nations! If it is God’s will that there should be anything sacred in this world, I will appease with his blood the ghosts of the men he murdered!”. Livy goes on the say, “Putting spurs to his horse he rode at the enemy with levelled spear. The blow struck home and Tolumnius fell; instantly, Cossus dismounted and as Tolumnius struggled to rise struck him down again with the boss of his shield and with repeated thrusts of his spear finally pinned him to the ground. Then he stripped the lifeless body of its armor, cut off its head and, sticking it on the point of the lance, returned to the fight with his spoils.”

I love Livy and I am counting on James Morris to do something similar to Martinez this year when we play Nebraska.
