A lot of people in the Big 12 were concerned that Bowlsby would replace Delaney in the Big 10. He has done a great job for the Big 12. Very steady, clear on what he says and very transparent. He has worked to build a strong alliance with the SEC, and this will only make that stronger. This entire thing is hard to understand, and Warren is STILL in hiding. Crazy.
This sounds even worse, regarding Warren

You obviously don’t know who you are dealing with. This has been a process over decades now. Warren is a Spineless Puppet. He and the Presidents could care less how many lives they destroy in their perverse George Soros narrative. And, there have been plenty of people trying to alert us to the Liberal BS going on in our College and Universities for years. If I’m Iowa and any number of BIG schools I’m looking to get out ASAP. See Bobby Carpenter’s comments on Warren during his time in the NFL and the feedback Carpenter received.

How did Raveling do with those same recruits? How well did he develop Lohaus? Lohaus went from invisible to a legitimate player during his single year playing for TD. Your logic sounds a lot like the Nubby cultists saying Frost isn't responsible for results until they purge all of "Reilly's recruits" and Fleck talking about "year zero." Got news for you, Poindexter, they are your players the moment you take the job. No one is arguing TD is an all-time greatest coach comparable to Dean Smith or John Wooden. He WAS successful everywhere he coached. He had a winning record in the NCAAs while at Iowa, even after "George's players" graduated including the Sweet 16 his final season. How many Sweet 16s has Fran appeared in? And Davis was a lazy recruiter? Maybe. Fran's recruiting has been underwhelming at best. So TD may have been mediocre but his body of work easily surpasses anyone who has coached at Iowa since he left.
I believe ISU was ranked ahead of the Hawks in the preseason last year. Pre-season ratings are utterly useless.
If Warren we're doing this to actually try and swing an election, President Trump should come out and tell the Big Ten to play football. This would be very popular amongst Big Ten fans in most BiG States.If he intended to swing the election, his screwup might've ended up reaming whichever he deems to be his side.
If Warren is so concerned about Covid and safety that he shut down the 2020 season, he should be demanding his son to opt out this year if the SEC continues on to play. And then, the Commissioner's job has enough on its plate such that he has no business in providing his personal opinions on what conference athletes should do in their personal lives like voting or not voting. His "leadership" to date begs the question to the powers that be in the 14 institutions to reconsider if he is the right person for that position.
That will almost certainly happen and the b1g oaf in chief’s “play” will continue to misfire on all cylinders.
Warren - If Warren son play college football this year... @ Mississippi. Warren should be fired... Freakin hypocrite.....
This is the same guy that wanted all of the Big Ten college athletes
to sign up for voting..... He is on a different agenda than the Big 10 fans...

I have no issues with urging/informing athletes on voting. That's fine. But yes, if the SEC, ACC and Big 12 play football this year successfully both Kevin Warren and Larry Scott of the Pac-12 should be fired immediately for incompetence.
The Big 10 President’s better start caring about athletics as there have been studies done that strong sports at a college helps enrollment numbers.
The sooner Warren is gone, the better it will be for the conference.
Hope they didn't spend much money on those "studies", because it's a no-brainer. Unless you're talking the Ivy's, they've got their hands full with "other" things.....
Sir ... The President of Purdue University is on Line 1. He’d like a chat with you.
So according to Moos, the ADs and presidents/chancellors of the schools were not communicating with one another but were using Warren as an intermediary. As ridiculous as that sounds, it isn't inconceivable in a world where people are forbidden to be in proximity to others. I have a hard time believing Harreld was onboard with scrapping the season.
To explain that the leftist dogma of the taxpayer funded leftist presidents is somehow unique to the B1G and Pac-12 Presidents, but not shared by their peers in the Big 12, SEC, and ACC? And furthermore, that these leftist Presidents in the B1G all seemed to hire AD's at their respective institutions that didn't follow the Presdients leftist dogma?
If your dad told you, an 18-19 yr old, not to play college football would you listen to him?
Much less a 21 yr. old. This is one thing Warren is unfairly criticized for.
My adult son can make his own decision...your (BIG families) adult kids can't make their own decision about playing. Then after taking that decision away, he hides. Not unfair to criticize Warren for this.
Every political debate on these boards splits into 1 of 2 political groups. The "leave me alone and let me make my own decisions and decide on my own risks" group and the "we are smarter than you and know what's best for you" group.
I don't believe Warren specifically thinks his decisions will take down Trump. Warren and likely the presidents appear to be of the group that thinks they know what's best for everyone else.
He would win the state of Ohio without any question, probably Michigan too.
Donald says:
Reminiscent of one of my favorite Adam Smith passages from "The Wealth of Nations":
The man of system…is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamoured with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government, that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it… He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chess-board. He does not consider that in the great chess-board of human society, every single piece has a principle of motion of its own, altogether different from that which the legislature might choose to impress upon it.
My son had myocarditis as a 19 year old college football player. I told him he couldn't play either he listened to me or the 'he will feel faint for about 10-15 seconds and he will collapse and hopefully is within 5-10 minutes of a quality hospital' I may lean towards the 2nd part.
