Why would Dave Wannstedt be at a meeting about the B!G adding teams?
Dave Wannstedt says he has heard ISU and Kansas to Big Ten
- Thread starter Mountain Man Hawk
- Start date
It’s going to be MORE fun watching the meltdown here if ISU is in the B1G. Wailing. Gnashing of teeth. It will almost be biblical.
As in comparison to winning 2 games including 0 in your conference.
Funny response and I catch your drift but not even close. Iowa ranked 8th in defensive efficiency. Louisiana 30th. Seeing as how they only scored 14 the Clones might not have even scored on Iowa.
That would only create a built in instability. That’s just what the Big12 has had the last 10 years. KU and ISU may see that as a good deal now, but would they be satisfied with it 10 or 20 years down the road?
Sure…..let them in on the condition they permanently only get 1/10 the revenue and must play all conference games on the road. And must play Ohio State and Penn State every year.
And why is Campbell sought after when someone could go get that Rajin Cajun coach??????
Funny how the best response he can come up with is that Iowa didn’t make the Final Four in basketball last year……while ISU won a whopping 2 games total.
You really can’t make this stuff up!
We have already heard from multiple sources there is no interest in the Big 12 leftovers, but but but Dave Wannsted says!!!!!!!!!!!
They literally are like little brothers. The I know you are but what am I f-ing imbeciles that they are.
I had been waiting for Dave Wannstedt to weigh in before I believed any rumors. Once the My Pillow guy confirms, I’ll know it’s fact.
Would be the same meltdown on every Big 10 board, but we won't have to worry about it.
What?
I have never heard anything close to this. Do you have anything suggesting this is true? I suspect it is not.
edit: after doing research, what I read in the past appears to be true. Kansas football is worth about 2x what Kansas basketball is worth. Let alone the value of B1G programs.
Where did you read/hear your info?

1. Those 5 schools are already voting against the SEC. Or do you think they're voting in favor of the league that just stole Texas and OU?
2. ISU and Kansas would be the two of the three worst schools in the B1G, with Nebraska. They reduce the conferences academics. They do not improve the league in any way.
Simply not going to happen.
Looks like the Alliance press conference should put a nail in the Big 8
No way in hell would I believe that. The TV deals for conference football are huge.
ticket sales also would crush basketball.
Even if I concede this point, please explain WVU to the ACC and OSU, KSU to the PAC. Those conferences would not associate with those schools due to academics.
So 2/3 of The Stache's statement have just been blown up. Now we're supposed to believe the final 3rd, that the BIG would add two of the historically worst programs in CFB history, one that overlaps current BIG territory, and who reduce the amount of each school's payout because of academics. I think The Stache spoke out of his arse.
The only relationship between Fox Sports and the Big Ten is media rights and the network. They have absolutely no input into conference membership. Anything Dave W heard was third hand. I surmise this is more conjecture on a few media personalities than anything else.
Right now clone fans every where talking about how smart and credible Wannstedt is. Any person who tweets or post anything related to ISU and Big 10 in a favorable opinion they take it and run with it.
Here is what is on the Big 10's website about the alliance. Nothing real Earth shattering besides what has been discussed about scheduling agreements in the future.

ACC, BIG TEN AND PAC-12 ANNOUNCE HISTORIC ALLIANCE
The ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12 today announced an historic alliance that will bring 41 world-class institutions together on a collaborative approach surrounding the future evolution of college athletics and scheduling.

Actually not. Just another discussion topic amongst Clone fans.
Look, to me this is just one more of dozens of speculations out there, 99% of which are just that--speculation.
I would bet there are a lot of discussions going on behind the scenes to find landing spots for the eight teams. And, I would bet they'll be in P5 conferences.
Maybe I'm wrong, but in reality--not a whole hell of a lot I can do about it, and at nearly 60 years of age, I learned a while back to worry about what I can do something about.
Besides, as a lifelong Milwaukee Bucks fan, and having had season ticket packages since the 70's when my dad had them, I'm still riding a high from July. And, looks like Brewers could have a nice fall run.
Life if just fine...Dave Wannstedt or no Dave Wannstedt.
And, in the end, I doubt Dave's going to be the one to break the final happening.
Last point is not entirely true. Illinois-Iowa in the BTT drew more than a lot of B1G football games in 2019. However, what’s absolutely true is that basketball ALONE can’t make a school worth it. And that’s all KU brings to the table. Hell, I think BTN might even already be on cable in the KC market.
Notice how many times in the press release they mention "current" scheduling arrangements. Once those "current" contracts are up they will be done and we're scheduling ACC/PAC teams. Love it. Once this takes effect there is no reason to schedule ISU unless it's a one off game every 4-5 years or so at Kinnick.Here is what is on the Big 10's website about the alliance. Nothing real Earth shattering besides what has been discussed about scheduling agreements in the future.

If Barta re-ups a contract sending Iowa to Ames for a game he's going to hear about it from a lot of angry Iowa fans.
Your delusions continue.
And I thought your posts from January were crazy.
The ACC added Louisville so I think they have lowered the bar considerably since turning their nose up at WVU.
Also, WV would be 4th in ratings and 5th in attendance in the ACC right now. They are worthy of discussion if the ACC is serious about improving their football profile.
