Former Miami Hurricanes wide receiver Brian Hightower committed to Illinois back in April, while wideout Khmari Thompson transferred in from the Missouri Tigers this summer.

Hightower, a former four-star prospect in 2018, had received scholarship offers from power five programs including Alabama, Clemson, USC, Florida, Michigan & Ohio State. The 6-foot-3, 210-pound receiver caught 12 passes for 148 yards and a TD during his two seasons with the ‘Canes.
Thompson ran a 4.3 40 in HS.

From today's fishwrap
"A Wisconsin player has won the Doak Walker Award as the nation’s top running back four of the past eight years. Montee Ball won it in 2012, Melvin Gordon in 2014 and Taylor the past two seasons.
This marks the first time since 2006 that Wisconsin has opened a season without a single player who has rushed for at least 100 yards in a single game.Yet the Badgers remain confident in the guys who will be carrying the ball .
Wisconsin’s depth chart lists either Groshek or sophomore Nakia Watson as the first-team running back this week. Chryst says sophomore Isaac Guerendo also will get opportunities.
Groshek, a former walk-on, has 916 career yards rushing. He had 42 carries for 196 yards and two touchdowns last year .
Watson ran for 331 yards and two touchdowns on 74 carries last season. Guerendo has one career carry.
They’ll be running behind a line that lost three starters from the 10-4 team that reached the Rose Bowl last year, though 32-game starter Jon Dietzen is back after he missed the 2019 season because of injuries."

The qb duties go to redshirt freshman Graham Mertz.

Yeah that’s probably the dumbest decision I’ve ever seen in football.

Let's say I was an administrator and cared about winning sports. Being an administrator, I'm probably not eligible. We'll need to recruit some players.

Where am I more likely to get such players? From the African American community, or from the Duck Dynasty community? Maybe if they stop virtue signaling they'll have a shot at landing Baron Trump, or Rush Limbaugh's kids.

Yeah because slapping a sticker on your helmet is surely going to get recruits pounding on our door to play here...  hey at least we "checked that box" with our coach though, seems to be working great

For a guy who loves stock-picking you seem to not grasp how sales works.

The ‘United As One’ icon was created by Big Ten Conference Associate Director of Branding Chris Althoff. The design is a word cloud arranged in the shape of the [Big Ten] number one. This visual representation of the purpose and passion of the Equality Coalition will debut on all 14 Big Ten Conference campuses this weekend and feature prominently alongside and in support of each university’s unique social justice awareness campaign, as follows:

Seems to put things in a different light.
