So now they go add Florida to the the list of banned schools. This after all the uproar. Some insecure badgers around.

Ya, Bo must REALLY want to avoid playing Uthoff, or he is trying to send a message that you don't transfer away from UW.

Weird stuff.....

I heard a rumor we have a game scheduled with them in 3 years and that's why we were on the restricted list. Any truth in that?

If this was the case, I find it interesting that when they interviewed Bo about it, he explained every excluded school on his restricted list as being due to scheduling or potential scheduling (in the ACC's case), but conveniently said absolutely nothing about ISU. Not saying it isn't, but I find ISU's exculsion from his interview interesting.

I can't believe Barry Alvarez hasn't stepped in and laid down the law with Ryan. They look terrible right now.

Exactly what I was thinking. The damage from this already probably has hurt WI more than Uthoff transferring ever could. Fine with me, especially if we get Thomas AND Uthoff wins his appeal and transfers to ISU.

i didn't think basketball games are scheduled out more than a year in advance.

With JP's ties to UW, it could easily be an agreement in principle. Still pretty weak argument though if that's the reason why Bo excluded ISU.

If that is the case then why doesn't he just put a clause in the release that states Uthoff can't play against Wisconsin in the regular season.

I thought I remember us doing that for an LB that transferred to NIU.

That's unacceptable.

basketball schedules aren't set 3 years in advance. i'd put very little weight on the wisconsin schedule angle.

anyone else listening to Bo Ryan on Mike and Mike? I think the dude has lost it.

he's all over the place. Really scrambling for a message. He's hardly completing any thoughts

it sounds like he's setting things up for Jared's appeal to be granted, though. What I've taken away is that Bo looks at the appeal process as a method for Jared to explain why he would want to go to any of the schools on the blocked list.
