No Surprise Here Folks....Rich Rod crys



Rich Rodriguez probably wishes he was back at West Virginia today. Michigan football went 3-9 last year, and now may be in violation of NCAA rules. And, this also comes after a ugly exit from West Virginia. I'll give him credit that he wears his heart on his sleeve, but he'll have to much better than last year to keep his job at Michigan. Michigan fans won't be able to handle another losing season, and will run him out of town just like they did Lloyd Carr.

UW eyes Irish in the Fall

In great news for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame, UW's Athletic director Barry Alvarez is working to get Notre Dame on UW's non-conference schedule. This would be a great matchup, and a dream come true for some of us...

Notre Dame is currently reworking their schedule with Purdue, as in playing them every other year instead of every season. Alvarez has ties to Notre Dame, by winning a National Championship with them in 1988 alongside Lou Holtz.

The last time the Badgers and Fighting Irish met was in 1964. In 16 games, the Irish lead the series 8-6-2.

The Badgers are known for having a very weak non-conference schedule. With a move like this, Alvarez will improve the Badgers strength of schedule every year. And maybe, Alvarez won't have to schedule "cupcakes" such as Cal-Poly.

South Bend to lose Hall of Fame?

Well this seems be total nonsense, but a few people want to move the College Football Hall of Fame to Dallas, TX. Can you imagine South Bend losing the HOF? I know a certain someone that would go completely crazy.

The current College Football Hall of Fame has been located in South Bend since 1995. The current economic downturn has been felt in South Bend, and the HOF could be a victim. With notables of Deion Sanders, Roger Staubach, and Oklahoma State booster and billionaire T. Boone Pickens lead the way for Dallas to fully fund a new HOF in downtown Dallas.

This would be quite the blow for South Bend, and the campus of Notre Dame.
