As many know, the NU Club Crew team lost all of their boats in an accident just
prior to finals. 

I put a story up on Scout.com Saturday with details on how you could help them
recover if you would like to help.

http://northwestern.scout.com/2/515618.html

These guys work hard to compete at a pretty high level and could use some help
to recover.

Thanks

But of course, it will happen again...

...12 hours later, at 01:02:03pm (unless you are using a 24-hour clock).
...100 years later on April 5, 2106.
...and 100 years after that, and so on, and so on.

It's an amusing little bit of trivia, and a once-in-a-lifetime moment 
for most people, but it's hardly a cosmic event.

Food for thought: Jordan was 1st on the depth chart following  the 2004 
season.  Roberson was 2nd, and Conteh and Sutton were fighting it  out for 3rd.  So 
Jordon and Roberson go down, Sutton beats Conteh out for  the 3rd spot, and 
re-writes NU and Big 10 record books for freshmen.
   I'm presuming that Sutton is our #1 back, but is RW leaving  the door open 
for Terrell? There's been hints of a 2 back system, much like  Wright and 
Herron shared the ball in 2003.  If so, what's the word on  Conteh and Roberson?  
If Roberson doesn't sprain his ankle, he would've  "carried the mail" last 
year.
   This is a delectable problem.  Three backs who've been  considered the 
feature back, with an offensive line returning 5 starters. (Rees  returns, 
replacing Streif indirectly) .  If we can get an "average"  day out of whoever wins 
the QB derby,  we could feature a running game more  potent than the usual 
outstanding ground game we've become accustomed to.
  It may be in Conteh's best interest to red-shirt, now that Jordan is  
healthy.  Even with Hamlett on the other side of the ball, it's awfully  crowded in 
the backfield.
   My typing is too slow to begin a discussion about defense, but  I'm hoping 
with our young guys getting a year of work, it will result in less  points 
and yardage.  Getting Heinz back won't hurt either.
  Let me be the first to day it. Ignore the annuals in June when they  have 
us penciled in 8th place.  We will be in the First Division.  Again.

Great thoughts WildElk, I too like the depth we appear to have in the backfield.  Sutton is not a big guy so I'm sure Walker will want to have others carry the load to save Sutton's strength for the long Big Ten season.

Is the Spring Game still on for April 22nd?  Is anyone on the list attending?  I plan to.

We are, but I am not optimistic.

It seems to me 3 out of the last 4 years the spring game has been cancelled or moved inside based on the weather.

We are not however planning on going to the NGN dinner and auction, which is that same weekend.

I thought this article might be of interest, in that it a) mentions
Northwestern, and b) mentions Liberty University's losing football
team, which I believe someone mentioned on here a while back.  That
said, I'm hoping not to stir up too much animosity re: Jesus ;)

My guesses:
Strief 3rd Round
Cofield 5th Round
Basanez 6th Round
McGarigle 7th Round

No others drafted.

I recently took the LSAT and began getting the flood of ridiculous mail 
from various Schools of Law requesting that I apply there.  Mostly these 
just get ignored and sit on a shelf waiting to be opened, but I took 
extra-special care to make sure that Liberty's got thrown in the garbage 
immediately.

I actually was a little shocked they even *had* a School of Law.  And that 
somehow I got on their list.

Nice mention of our super-duper debate team, though.  As far as the 
mention of that bitch school Harvard, well, I guess that's just East Coast 
bias coming through in the Washington Blade... er... Post. ;-)

Go 'Cats,

Jonathan

I didn't see anything on how our guys did at the combine, so it's hard to
guess. I think, given his size, Strief will probably be the first guy taken. I
could also see a scenario where neither McGargle or Basanez get taken. 

According to ESPN's prospect list Terrell Jordan is hoping to be drafted and is
nearly 7 feet tall :-)

Mark Lorreta hit a "walk off" homer to win the traditional Patriot's Day game 
for the Red Sox (started at 11:05 AM) yesterday. He had never hit one in his 
life--including little league ,high school, and Northwestern. It was also nice 
that his dad had flown in from LA to be at  the game

Message-ID: <914d6aa90604181006r254e8bbw392a2df0ef990b7@mail.gmail.com>

Browsing ESPN, I was read the article about the controversy over the
Buckeyes' new uniforms (
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=2406332 ).  I the decided
to check out the Uni Watch Archives, and was shocked to find the
following in the FAQ (
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/news/story?id=2338215 ):

Why do you hate purple so much?

I actually think purple in nature is quite nice -- eggplants, violets,
plums, etc. But purple in manmade design applications has always
struck me as really tacky. Like, seriously, have you ever seen a
purple car? A total nightmare. Same goes for purple clothing,
especially uniforms.

I was also told that RW is moving to a new house a few blocks north of the
stadium complex.

Tammy wanted a "newer" house than the one they're in right now.

Message-ID: <200604232148.k3NLmkmE029310@romaine.tssi.com>

It was a beautiful day Saturday and it was nice to see the squad actually
get to run through an entire spring game.  The defense contained the offense
throughout the first 20 plays or so but eventually the offense adjusted to
garner some long gains.  All three quarterbacks struggled at times with
interceptions and missed passes but the most impressive performance seemed
to come from red shirt freshman Andrew Brewer.  He is 6-3 215 with great
hands (he also can also play wide receiver) and broke a number of tackles
when called upon to run.  I didn't see Sutton play so I guess he was held
out.  I also didn't notice any two back sets from Walker although I tended
to study the defense more.

 

Wildcat Alley took place on Touchdown Terrace and despite free beer and a
beautiful day it was pretty sparsely attended.  The west side stands were
about 25% full for the game.  All of the kids were allowed on the field to
stretch with the Cats before the game.  David Ngene took a picture with my
one year-old daughter which made for a pretty funny picture (6-3 260  vs.
2-1 39) If anyone was at the game I'd like to hear their thoughts.
Especially since I spent a great deal of time chasing the aforementioned one
year-old around the south end zone.  (Where I also happened to notice some
of the bricks that have been bought by contributors to this list: Jim Bendat
and John DeGroat were two I recall.  They look great!)

I didn't attend, but I did find some time to listen to WNUR on 
Saturday.  Coach Walker spoke extensively after the game, and I recall 
him saying:
 -- Tyrell Sutton was held out "because we know what he can do"
 -- Terrell Jordan still has a hamstring problem
 -- Brandon Roberson hurt his ankle during the game, but Walker feels 
he'll be fine
 -- Eric Peterman suffered a mild concussion during the week, but Walker 
was pleased with his progress as a CB

The WNUR guys were very thrilled with Brewer.  Apparently, the guy can 
really run.  Occasionally, we're lining up with two QBs on the field at 
once, as Brewer can also catch the ball.  Walker calls him our "slash" 
guy, a la Cordell Stewart.

Yes, I saw Brewer line up in the back field on one play and lead what looked
like a kind of option play to the left.

I know people seem to get pumped up about these prime-time games, 
although the irony is that we haven't fared too well in them.

Here's how we've fared in prime-time games in recent memory:

Wisconsin-97--LOSS
Michigan-98--LOSS
at Ohio State-01--LOSS
Ohio State-02--LOSS
Ohio State-04--WIN
Michigan-05--LOSS

Michigan 2000 finished under the lights, but it was a 2:30 game, not a 
prime-time game.  And although we played Northern Illinois on a 
Thursday night in 2000, I don't think it was even televised, so I 
wouldn't count that as a "prime-time" game.  Ditto UNLV 2001 and TCU 
2004 (although those were televised, they weren't Saturday-night 
prime-time games.)

So our record has been 1-5 in these big games under the lights.  
Frankly, the 04 win against Ohio State arguably makes up for the 5 
losses, but still, it's not a great record in these games.

Having said that, I'm getting pretty pumped about 11-11.  Hopefully by 
the 11th hour (PM) we'll be celebrating a victory.  (I suppose the 11th 
victory in the 11th game would be too much to hope for.)

Giving Walker a five year contract tells me that 1) Murphy didn't think 
that he could get a better coach for NU than Randy. Or wasn't allowed to 
look for one 2) that NU will be satisfied with mediocrity meaning an 
occasional second level bowl game and middle of the Big Ten finishes, 3) 
that the stadium will be half empty except when Illinois or Wisconsin 
show up., 4) that no assistant coaches from major programs will have any 
interest in coming to NU, 5) low memorabilia sales levels.  All this 
translates finally into lower than need be revenues which ultimately 
will hurt the football and other athletic programs.

OR it tells us that:

1) Walker has improved NU from being last or second-to-last in the Big
Ten to regularly competing in the league and placing in the top half
if not higher.

2) Playing the coaching carousel does not accomplish anything, and
after attaining some sort of winning stability it would be pointless
to lose coaching stability.

3) After making it to 3 bowls EVER, Walker brought the program to 3
bowls under his tenure.

4) The program may not attract assistant coaches, but instead it
produces them - giving our last 2 OC's big demand as they left the
program.

5) NU games do sell out once a year or so (even if it is when OSU or
Michigan come to town), and a true college football atmosphere is felt
at most of the Big Ten games.  Memorabilia sales will never be the
same as Michigan and NU will never be able to sell out 100,000 seat
stadiums, but that is not what the school is about.  NU embraces what
it is, or at least it is beginning to, and it is a smaller but
well-rounded and very highly regarded school academically with quality
athletics to complement that.  NU is NOT a large state school with
vast funds to throw at athletics and a school with millions of alumni
and in state fans who is just a run of the mill academic institution.

Is extending Walker's contract another 4 years the right thing?  YES,
he has done nothing but what was asked of him and more (which has been
discussed on numerous occasions).  The trib article was good in
summarizing both the good and the bad and pointing out that he has
created stability in the program.  Maybe he has not produced a
1995-type season, but what he's done consistently over time is better
than a flash in the pan.  Now the team doesn't have to worry about
some new coach and a possible step back in the program as the coach
institues their style, whatever that may be.

Jonathan summed it up well.  I am happy with the extension given to Randy.

I've been following NU football since the days of Ara and I feel that Randy has brought stability to the program.  I expect continued improvement.

John,

At this point, might it not just be easier for you to go root for Michigan, 
Ohio State, or even The Evil Empire? Then you could always be happy, instead 
of so miserable, because unfortunately, we're just regularly better than 
we've ever been, but still not a powerhouse. 

Me? I'm pretty happy and expect to stay that way with an occasional bump in 
the road befitting a program that maintains a belief that school actually 
counts. After winning three games in my FOUR YEARS as an undergrad...what 
they do now? Pretty damned exciting stuff!

So, I'm sorry you're not enjoying it, but they've got 100,000 seats at The 
Big House...I'm sure you could find a seat or two.

So, with respect, MAZEL to RW!

Jason Singer, SP86

 Just a thought as we all reflect on the advisability, or lack thereof, of Mr. Walker wearing purple for even more years.
 Walker has gone 14-10 in the Big Ten the past three years; has taken the Cats to bowl games; and, for the most part, has graduated his players. If you were Mark Murphy and Henry Bienen, wouldn't that look good to you?
 Since this is a public forum and since I work for the sports department of a major newspaper, I'm not saying whether I personally think retaining Walker is a good idea or not. I'm simply saying that an objective analysis would lead most reasonable observers to conclude he had met his performance criteria, and that it was clear -- based on comments Murphy had made over the past few months in the press -- Walker was going to be in Evanston for a long time to come.
 That said, I suggest it's important that those with a dissenting point of view, like Mr. DeGroat, ought to be welcomed on our forum. Dissent and disagreement is healthy, and makes life on these boards way more interesting, especially in the off season.
 Warm purple regards to all from sunny SoCal - Alan

Dissent is good.  Endlessly beating a dead horse over and over with  
predictably negative one sided commentary is too tedious, unnecessarily  annoying and 
not good for this list.

When did happiness become a criteria for posting on this list?

I think John has every right to express his opinion and though I don't often
agree with him, I'm happy he is willing to so regularly stir the pot.
Conflict is, after all, the spice of all good drama.

I am not a big RW fan either, but I believe he earned this extension by
getting results on the field.  

Hopefully this extension also justifies continued high expectations (win
more than you lose) by fans and the administration.  If so, then everything
will sort itself out because his future will be determined (as he should be)
on running a clean program, and wins and loses.

Jeff

I think that dissenting viewpoints are welcomed here, and in my
response to John I was refuting his points with some of my own.  While
I do not agree with him, I can understand his point of view and it is
good that we have some list members that add flavor to the discussion.

Here is an interesting discussion topic: is it wise to go into the
season without naming a starting QB?  Walker has made a point not to
declare one until the season progresses and everyone has a chance to
see game time.  The last time that this happened was the 2002 season
when Stauss started the first game and watched his career plummet as
Basanez took over (although Webb also had some playing time before his
liver was lacerated).  Basanez subsequently took over and performed
well as a redshirt freshman (minus a game missed due to his broken
leg).  By the time he settled in, though, the season was basically
over as NU was not able to stop anyone and only picked up a Big Ten
win against lowly Indiana at home in a close game.

Maybe if Walker made up his mind before the season it would give the
starter a chance to settle in and gain some momentum.  I think this
would be valuable, especially considering past adversity when changing
offensive leadership.  Of course there are benefits in allowing
competition to help push the players to perform better, especially
with some talented guys (Brewer) on the bench.  Walker has moved guys
around in the past, though, and may show some new plays using the
multi-talented guys during the season.

Hey, it could be worse. Two weeks ago I was expecting to read messages 
demanding that Kelly Amonte Hiller be fired. After all, the lacrosse team 
*lost* a game, which means they are already headed in the wrong direction 
when compared to last season. Shouldn't we keep up our high expectations? 
Are we really willing to just settle for -- literally -- "second best"? 
What does that say about us as a school? I also haven't heard about any 
assistant lacrosse coaches wanting to come to Northwestern; clearly that 
means that the program is in disrepair. And don't get me started on ticket 
revenues, which seem practically nonexistent. Next thing you know we might 
actually *not* win a championship some year, and then where will we be?

Maybe folks are just waiting until the end of the season to see whether we 
lose another game. After all, last year's success probably earned KAH one 
more season in which to justify our high expectations. If we don't win the 
championship this year, though, I expect lots of "healthy," "interesting," 
"spicy" pot-stirring!

I was fortunate enough to take in both the Spring Game and the Women's
Lacrosse game vs. Johns Hopkins on Sunday, and had a great time at
both. 

The Lacrosse team totally dominated JH, with some young players doing a
lot of the damage. This team looks to be a contender for at least the
next couple of years. 

The fan turnout was a pleasant surprise, with both (small) grandstands
filled up by the time we arrived, and many more fans spread up and down
both sidelines. 

Couple more home games on the schedule, and a good possibility of
hosting the first two playoff rounds again. Highly recommended if you
are in the area and haven't taken in a game yet.


As for football, it was nice to see NU actually have a spring game for
a change, and on a beautiful day for football at that. 

For the most part, I was encouraged by what I saw. Testing out the QB's
was clearly a big focus, as most of the plays called were either passes
or designed QB runs. 

The good news is that to my eyes, all 3 QB's showed a lot of potential.
Brewer was downright spectacular at times running the ball, and
completed some nice passes. Bacher probably showed the best zip and
touch throwing the ball. Kafka was perhaps the most intriguing of the
three--he had some nice throws, and showed some surprising speed on one
long scramble. 

I don't envy the coaches having to pick one guy and run with him--it's
so hard to know what any of them might accomplish with a few starts
under their belt. I'm sure many mistakes will be made, and will
probably cost us some wins in '06. But I would say the future looks
bright at the QB position.

If I had to guess, I'd say Bacher would be the most likely starter to
open the season. But Brewer is going to get a lot of touches, one way
or another.

The injury to Roberson was scary, because we could see his knee/ankle
getting bent awkwardly as he was going down. Fortunately, it didn't
seem to end up being nearly as bad as I initially feared. And it was
very disappointing to hear that Jordan is having hamstring problems
again--I was really looking forward to a Sutton-Jordan 1-2 punch. We'll
see.

The #1 defense looked pretty solid. It appears they are still trying to
find the other CB opposite Cole, and Walker was lamenting the fact that
Kadella, Wooten, and a couple other guys had been injured and unable to
do much this spring. Obviously a lot will hinge on whether the D can
improve this eason.

Let's see, what else---Howells looked good on several short FG and PAT
kicks, but had one really woeful 45-yard attempt. There weren't a lot
of punts, but a young kid (Daly or Daley I think) had one monster punt
that drew a big round of applause. 

All in all, it was good to see the Cats back on the field, and the
energy level seemed good. Lots of question marks ahead, but I'm fairly
optimistic about '06, and especially about '07.

I think that you don't know how players are going to perform in competition
until you see them in competition.

RW should reward those who work hard and perform well in practice by giving
them an opportunity to start.  That opportunity gives them more reps, but it
doesn't give them the lock on the job that Baz and Zak earned by performing
on the field. Zak and Baz had to take the job away from the starter and
never gave it back.  I think that RW realizes that none of the guys on the
bench has earned that position yet and he wants each of the three guys
competing for that position to know that it is there for the taking if they
execute in competition.

I think this is what you have to do when you don't have a clear successor to
your long-time starter.  It may cost us some early games, but the success of
the last three years was the result of Baz getting a chance because the job
wasn't handed to Stauss.

Under this criteria we should also fire Fitz, who is going into the Summer
without naming ANY of his starting LBs.

We will see a starter emerge early in Kenosha, and it will be the guy who leads
us into the season, much the same way that Sutton stepped out of a close race to
eventually lock down his slot at RB.

I have no problem with there being a QB controversy right now. I think the
answer to the question will resolve itself up in Kenosha, with the final answer
being determined by mid August.

Boy, if happiness were a criterion for posting, list traffic would be pretty
sparse many weeks!  I do get weary of repeated negativism, but if the poster
really cares about the program--as I have come to believe John does--then
it's tolerable, even if I happen to have a differing opinion.  (Plus,
sometimes even legitimate concerns are expressed!)  ;)

On to the topic at hand....

I like Randy Walker.  Like many others, I was really disappointed when Gary
Barnett left in the middle of the night.  At the time Walker was hired, I
thought it was a brilliant decision, and I felt that opinion was validated
with the 'Cats' 2000 Big Ten Championship.  I have to admit that I had some
serious doubts about whether he was the right guy for NU in the wake of 2001
and 2002, but I held off on judging too harshly because of the Rashidi
Wheeler ordeal (notwithstanding that some might argue that the Wheeler
fiasco is a reason for judging _more_ harshly).  However, since the second
half of the 2003 season I've been happy to have RW as our coach.  Why?  He's
met what I think should be reasonable expectations for a Big Ten football
coach.  Here are my expectations--subject to a reserved right to amend--in
no particular order:

1.	Win a conference championship and/or go to the Rose Bowl at least
once every 11 years, preferably more often.
2.	Go to a bowl game at least two out of every three years, starting
with the coach's fourth year (when his first class of recruits are juniors).
3.	Go to a top-tier bowl game at least every five years.
4.	Never go winless in the conference schedule (it almost naturally
follows from this that a team should not finish the season with fewer than
three total wins).
5.	Run a clean program and graduate players.

So far Walker's met four out of five of these expectations, and I think we
deserved a higher, top-tier bowl in 2000 (unfortunately, so did Nebraska).
Of course, others are free to have different, more demanding expectations.
I'd love to be dominant year in and year out as much as anybody, but the
problem is that there are more than a couple of schools in the Big Ten whose
supporters all want the same thing.  To make matters more difficult, there
are a few schools in the conference that are at a competitive disadvantage
to some of the others from a recruiting standpoint:

NU (higher admissions and academic standards, a mild social scene, and
in-state competition from Illinois)
IU (the least football tradition in the Big Ten and in-state competition
from Purdue and Notre Dame)
Purdue (location in West LaFayette and in-state competition from Notre
Dame...and, I suppose, IU)
MSU (usually operating in the shadow of Big Blue in football)
Minnesota (lousy stadium situation and comparatively poor game-day
atmosphere...for a few more years, anyway)

Thus, winning consistently at any of these places is particularly tough, and
I think a coach's performance at one of those schools should be evaluated
keeping that in mind.  This is not a call for mediocrity.  I simply mean to
encourage some rationalism for our expectations and point out the relatively
impressive job Walker has done at NU.  Have there been problems?  Sure.  The
defense and special teams need quite a bit of improvement, but I don't know
of too many teams that can't stand to improve in some regard.  The fact of
the matter is that we have a winning Big Ten record over the last three
years (almost a 5-3 average), which is a good sight better than the 5-19 we
went during my first three years (almost a 2-6 average) at NU.  Furthermore,
my sense is that Northwestern is now respected by most knowledgable football
fans across the country--there's still some carry-over from the bad old days
and a few naysayers who maintain that 1995, 1996, and 2000 were flashes in
the pan--but overall the last couple of years have gone a long way toward
quieting those who used to laugh at the 'Cats.  Most importantly, teams can
no longer pencil in a win against NU...or, rather, they can, but they do so
at their own peril.

I guess the ultimate test for me personally is whether I truly believe the
'Cats can win another Big Ten championship and/or make it back to the Rose
Bowl with Walker.  If my honest answer is "no", then there's absolutely no
point in keeping the coach beyond his current contract.  Fortunately, I
think they can do it, and that's why I'm pleased by today's news.

When did happiness become a criteria for posting on this list?

I think John has every right to express his opinion and though I don't often
agree with him, I'm happy he is willing to so regularly stir the pot.
Conflict is, after all, the spice of all good drama.

I am not a big RW fan either, but I believe he earned this extension by
getting results on the field.  

Hopefully this extension also justifies continued high expectations (win
more than you lose) by fans and the administration.  If so, then everything
will sort itself out because his future will be determined (as he should be)
on running a clean program, and wins and loses.

Jeff

John,

At this point, might it not just be easier for you to go root for Michigan,
Ohio State, or even The Evil Empire? Then you could always be happy, instead
of so miserable, because unfortunately, we're just regularly better than
we've ever been, but still not a powerhouse. 

Me? I'm pretty happy and expect to stay that way with an occasional bump in
the road befitting a program that maintains a belief that school actually
counts. After winning three games in my FOUR YEARS as an undergrad...what
they do now? Pretty damned exciting stuff!

So, I'm sorry you're not enjoying it, but they've got 100,000 seats at The
Big House...I'm sure you could find a seat or two.

So, with respect, MAZEL to RW!

Jason Singer, SP86

For the record, I never questioned John's right to have a dissenting
opinion. I was just explaining MY dissenting view to his.

Like Woody says in "Annie Hall":

"Realy, I hear 'Dissent' and 'Commentary' were merging and the new magazine
is going to be called 'Dysentery'!"

The more opinions the merrier, I say!

John,

At this point, might it not just be easier for you to go root for Michigan, 
Ohio State, or even The Evil Empire? Then you could always be happy, instead

of so miserable, because unfortunately, we're just regularly better than 
we've ever been, but still not a powerhouse. 

Me? I'm pretty happy and expect to stay that way with an occasional bump in 
the road befitting a program that maintains a belief that school actually 
counts. After winning three games in my FOUR YEARS as an undergrad...what 
they do now? Pretty damned exciting stuff!

So, I'm sorry you're not enjoying it, but they've got 100,000 seats at The 
Big House...I'm sure you could find a seat or two.

So, with respect, MAZEL to RW!

Jason Singer, SP86

For the record, I never questioned John's right to have a dissenting
opinion. I was just explaining MY dissenting view to his.

Like Woody says in "Annie Hall":

"Realy, I hear 'Dissent' and 'Commentary' were merging and the new magazine
is going to be called 'Dysentery'!"

The more opinions the merrier, I say!

No complaint about the dissent here either -- the
delete key is one simple step away if ya don't like
it!

I will quibble with one point in John's e-mail though
about only filling the stadium when "Illinois and
Wisconsin come to town." ... we'd have a better chance
of filling Dyche if we moved the Illinois-NU
basketball game there. Illini fans almost follow their
team as poorly as Hoosier fans, even to Chicago. 

It'd take an 11-0 season, a special appearance by that
popular Chief Ill-ini-wek (the kids love the
dancing!:) ) and a coin toss by Dee Brown, Kenny
Battle and Lou Henson to even get those bandwagon fans
from Chicago to dig out those hideous orange sweaters
a couple months early, find a CTA map to Ryan Field
instead of the United Center and come cheer on the
Ill-ini for football. The bandwagon Meeeshigan and
dOSU fans from the Windy City are far more supportive
of their teams as they infiltrate our home field.

Perhaps John meant the other U of I and all those
bumblebees, who like those Cheeseheads, require only a
whif of meat on a grill and the sound of a six pack
being pulled to gas up the RVs and head on over to the
big city. 

As for the contract? Good news. It rewards a solid
building job in Evanston and it provides the NU
program with something it's never had before -
stability for the future. We can stop worrying about
whether the coach will leave or get snagged by a big
school or fired and build on the last few years.

The long nightmare of baseball, golzzzzzz, er, golf,
and toy cars going in circles masquerading as sports
television on weekends can't end soon enough. Bring on
the pigskin!

GO CATS!!!

Quick note about Stephen Truog's post:

"We can stop worrying about whether the coach will leave or get snagged by a
big school or fired and build on the last few years."

Am I the only one who remembers Gary Barnett? Granted, I don't think that RW
has the high market value that Barnett once did, but a contract extension
guarantees you NOTHING from a coach. That being said, I will only start to
worry about Walker walking if he opens a restaurant in Evanston with his name
on it.  :-)

Victory & Honor,
Jim

In a similar vein, contract extensions aren't a guarantee of employment for
a coach either.

If RW isn't able to reload with the new crop of QB's or he is involved in
another scandal, he's going to be on the hot seat again regardless of his
contract status.

So, at the end of the day, RW got a raise for the good results the team
turned in during the Baz years.  That certainly seems fair.  He has also
earned the chance to prove that he can continue to deliver good results with
this new bunch of kids.  Though some are understandably skeptical, I think
most everyone hopes that he does.

Jeff

RW might not be perfect, but I do believe him when he says that he wants to finish out his career at NU.

I think with the contract extension in mind *somebody* should reopen the 
Coaches' Cafe or a new restaurant kinda like it called Randy Walker's. 
Although I think Randy's would be a little more down-home than 
Coaches/Gary's.

This city (Chicago) is crying out for an actual, official Northwestern 
Alumni Association bar.  Why not open one? ;-)

Thanks to Waterboy for his thorough coverage, however depressing it may have 
been.  Once again we can expect to see no pass rush and no secondary 
coverage.  The footballs will be flying like mosquitoes in a swamp, and 
we're going to contract malarial losing fever.  Of course, the lousy punting 
will more than make up for it by putting the opposition in consistently 
great field position.  And who knows what will happen at quarterback?  Hope 
there will be some freshmen who can help.

No doubt about it.  We're going to the Rose Bowl.

Keep in mind that at least a couple of key defensive lineman, and a
couple of key linebackers didn't play at all in the Spring Game due to
injuries. I believe Walker said he expects all of them to be healthy
come August. 

Also, I think we may already have 3 decent players in the defensive
backfield--that other CB position is the big question mark. 

If Battle returns, or if Peterman or Hamlett step up (and I don't think
either played in the spring game), or one of the other guys on the
roster really improves over the summer, we might be OK there too. 

> No doubt about it.  We're going to the Rose Bowl.

Hmm, I like the thinking, but with a new QB at the helm this year? :-)

I do expect it will be a fun season at the very least.

A couple of "waterboy" inconsistencies...

1. He cried about the pass coverage, then praised the Safeties, even though the
free safety is a big part of JB's pass coverage...

2. He obviously didn't see some of the pass rush, including the sack.

3. I asked about the QB runs - they were called because [I think] Brewer and
Kafka are still learning the run/pass keys in the offense. In any case, we'll
see a couple more experienced middle linebackers come Kenosha which will shut
down that QB rush up the middle.

4. Missing from the field, but not the roster, was Corey Wootton, who is
expected back [right now] and who is expected to be the "other" outside rusher
with Mims.

Also:

Our lack of running game [from Roberson] was probably because we had
inexperienced tackles. Put Matthews and Thiry back up front and the NU O-Line
has a legit 3-4 yard surge on running downs. Who thought "little" Trevor would
make such a difference up front <g>

This should be a very interesting camp Kenosha - and I suspect media access will
also be limited the way it was during the Spring.

And, in case it was mentioned earlier, Barry Cofield was drafted by the 
NY Jets in the 4th round (124th overall).  Too bad Brett didn't get picked.

It may not be bad that Brett didn't get picked--I am sure he will get a 
tryout somehwere and now he will have some say in where  taht will be  and might be 
able to select a team that might need a good 3 deep QB

I think it was the NY Giants that drafted Cofield, not my Jets.
