Very controversial subject in this neck of the woods

TV money isn’t as important as you think for the best athletic departments

it’s less than 30% of iowa’s annual AD revenue, and less than 25% of Wisconsin’s. The big ten has elite fundraisers catering to more wealthy, educated fans due to the depth and quality of the degrees offered by the schools over multiple decades.

This is an all time LOL.

Beating Iowa does not matter for our program. Once upon a time, it was the only way to get noticed by the media and casual fans. It doesn’t serve that same purpose anymore. I don’t care if we lose to Iowa if we win conference games.

Time to get over it.

Numbers are all public, except for the actual earmarked donations to the respective foundations vs what flows through to the AD income statement each year.

some people get that. The AD is not one of those people.

Yes, Rutgers was not added for TV markets and Nebraska was added for academics.
LOL.

Don't you mean "our" AD?

If you don’t understand a topic as simple as this you should probably just not comment.

God if you only used your own advice.

What bothered me about the mens basketball game was that for like the 5th year in a row Iowa flat out just out efforted us in the first 8 minutes and it reflected on the scoreboard. We take the same bad shots over and over and they knock down clean looks. It's unbelievable how predictable it is.

Can't argue this at all. Not that it's an excuse, but its clear the game meant more to Iowa (should have meant more to us). Their players all grew up in Iowa and most of ours didn't. Wish we could figure out how to get up for this game more.

I've heard from some fairly well connected people that he would be the choice as of now. Things can change though.

Total BS statement, because the current coach is not looking to leave NOW. You have a head coach that has more power than the AD, if push comes to shove, and someone is forced out, Barta knows it would be him.

I could see Freerents coaching for a 3 more years, and if his son is not ready, either stick around a few more years, or give the job to Parker for a few years, with the idea that little Freerents is the coach in waiting. Reward Parker for the good job that he has done, and give the son a few more years of seasoning.

It might work, it might not, but can anyone name a son that followed his father in a P5 job, that was anywhere near as good as the old man? Maybe Bowden, at FSU, he was the only one that I could think of.

Im ok with you continuing to lose to the Hawks as well.

Well it involves the Hawks.

Yup, they are. That's why it's odd to see you say what you did when rights and licensing is more than double the donations.

At least you're more tolerable than Benjimil. ;-)

Sooooooo...
Outdated & inaccurate?

People who say it's ok to lose to Iowa if we win in conference are a bunch of wimps. Winners win.
