I am away for almost 2 weeks and no one can post on the homoerotic shit going down in the locker room at NU under Fitzee's watch? Beckman has to be wondering why he got shitcanned instead of getting an unpaid 2 week vacation.

Bernstein is a huge fan of Fitz. Therefore, Tempo will take a soft stance. He’s a score bot.

Northwestern is f***** up . The idea of being dry humped by a bunch of guys in ski masks b/c you made a mistake in a game has to really put future recruits' mothers at ease.

Title: Re: college football talk 2023

Looks like NU tried a cover up, but that failed. Fitz has to be gone. Dunno what is worse, that he knew and condoned it, or he somehow didn't know.

It appears they used forced nudity and simulated homosexual rape as hazing tactics to shame, embarrass, and humiliate freshmen who made mistakes? Bizarre form of team building.

Things have changed a lot in  50 to 60 years. First of all, back in the day, same gender male nudity didn't shame, embarrass, or humiliate anybody except fat guys with tiny willies and possibly closest cases.

It was normal and nonsexual in locker-room settings. We had all male communal change rooms and showers at public beaches and municipal pools. Also at schools, YMCAs, and boys clubs, in addition to suit-free swim lessons.

Really rebellious guys went streaking for fun.

Hazing consisted of forcing freshmen to imbibe excessive amounts of alcoholic beverages, then engage in various petty crimes and misdemeanors like panty raids.

All of the newer guys blow.

I think the last straw for me was Bernstein melting down about the Bears flying to Nashville to play the Titans in the fall of 2020. There were Covid cases in the organization and he was absolutely losing his mind that they were “getting in an aluminum tube for 2 hours” and how reckless it was. It’s a bunch of strong healthy freaks in their prime and anyone concerned or at risk shouldn’t be on the plane or in an airport. Fuck off.

Bernstein pivoted from being highly enjoyable for his irreverence to another holier-than-thou virtue signaler.

I am streaming it in my office right now for the first time since then, still sucks. I see why tempo likes it though.

If that happened at Illinois the NU buttbuddies in the Chicago and National media would have called for the Death Penalty. Look how they went after Beckman for telling kids to play with pain (which was fine) but let NU off the hook for killing Rashidi Wheeler (which was not).

There was more in that report than that, but a lot of it was "play with pain" type stuff. There was nothing about illegal practices/workouts that I recall. Though, the Wheeler incident was more along the lines of an illegal workout.

I thought Bob from Illini Board probably had Beckman pegged when he said it seemed that the shit Beckman did at Illinois all came from a notebook Beckman kept over the years where he would write down all the shit he saw the head coaches he worked for and programs he worked at do.

And yet here you are in disbelief that no one in the Medill Media Cabal would ever bad mouth a scumbag who was part of a staff who killed a kid and lied about it.

I believe he was a first year coach. You act as if he stabbed him and hid the body. What did they “lie about?” Again, Fitz’ reputation wasn’t some Medill conspiracy. It was what it was. Probably the only people that didn’t find him a good example of what’s right about college athletics were a small handful of hardcore Illini fans.

Tempo white knighting for Fitzee is predictable since I read Mully and Haugh were backtracking today claiming firing Fitzee is all "agenda" driven.

I listened to the first 30-45 minutes of the show and don’t feel like that’s what I heard at all. I got the firm impression they felt he had to go. Criticized the AD heavily for not being visible.

Yeah, I listened all the time too. I think I was pretty much completely done when Parkins joined.

Again, I am legitimately curious as to why you hate Parkins? I remember it took me about 6 months to maybe up to a year to warm up to him. I didn’t like him at first, either. He once admitted on air that after landing his “dream job” at The Score he felt he needed to come in and make an impression and was probably going a bit too hard. Again, it took me a while to warm up to him.

Some of that I’m sure stemmed from how upset I was at the way Goff and Spiegel were dumped. And in favor of dinosaur Dan McNeil, who’d been mailing it in for years. Parkins is way better with Spiegel.

The gofs were favored by 7 with an O/U of 42 1/2.
The gofs lost Ibrahim and ran for 55 yards on 25 carries.
The gofs scored 13 with a relatively inexperienced soph qb who had 44 passing attempts.

We're favored by 9 1/2 with an O/U of 45 1/2.
We lost Brown.
We're starting an inexperienced soph qb.

“We’re gonna continuously be questioned because we do things that have never been done,” said Sanders, a Pro Football Hall of Famer who turned around Jackson State before coming to CU in December. “That’s the way our life has presented itself.

“We do things that have never been done and that makes people uncomfortable. When you see a confident Black man sitting up here talking his talk, walking his walk, coaching 75% African Americans in the locker room, that’s kind of threatening. Oh, they don’t like that. But guess what? We’re going to consistently do what we do because I’m here and ain’t going nowhere. I’m about to get comfortable in a minute.”

As the board’s unquestioned champion of black coaches and players, I think Deion’s act is a bit over the top and self-congratulatory.

Oh absolutely. It is well deserved and earned. He also is polarizing on purpose. It’s exactly what he wants. That’s the whole point of the draw for people and recruits.

Deion's ability to sell NFL HOFer with great mid-major coaching record and high-major D1 talent after turning over the entire roster as massive underdogs is kind of impressive.

He should have been fired. But he was the new football savior so wasn’t gonna happen. If he’d been around a while and struggling he’d have been fired in a millisecond. It’s why I will always root against Notre Dame no matter who they play.

Yeah, not so much.
W Va is supposed to be decent this year and Allar and PSU took care of business against them.
Other than that, Wisco's new air raid offense got them 2 backs with 140 yards or more on the ground.
