Big Ten Media Day Open Thread
So the coaches are about to speak. Your thoughts as they go along?
Edit: For those of you stuck at work on this fine day. The BTN is streaming it live on their main page.
Heh. First question for a coach from the media is about OSU. Zook is doing the 2 step right now.
Is there any video or audio link for this?
I think you can watch on the big ten network website
If you have it... you can watch on the BTN. First up Brett a la Asshole
Brett just asked for "easy" questions....
BTN is streaming it live.
"Coach, is your resume up to date?"
This fanbase is in no position to make fun of a coach who has gone to a Rose Bowl.

It took Beilema about 30 seconds to bring up Russel Wilson.

I can't hear this man speak enough. Sounds like cautious optimism for the media. We need a solid RB. We won't try to put a square peg (DR) in a round hole. He won't take the bait on some of these questions and I love that he continue to use "Ohio". I have heard him 3 or 4 times now and Coach Hoke is consistently an excellent interview.
I heard they were bringing in some terminally ill children so Hoke could point at them and cure their sickness. Any truth to this?
That don't do thing's right. I
very telling....
that they must have there. Those coaches aren't little boys, they have some big ol' guys over there. Hoke, Beilema, Kill, and probably some more I can't think of. I'm drooling all over my keyboard here.
Bielema was talking about people knowingly violating NCAA rules saying it is unacceptable and people should be fired and it is a program issue. He is looking at you Ohio.
hate beilema, bot i like hearing him calling for the heads of coaches who knowingly commit major violations. now lets name some names!
Hope on now. I don't know why but this guy looks like a used car salesman.
"Coach, first love the sex stash but what incoming recruit are you most looking forward to losing to UM?"
What the hell does Danny HOpe care were the Big 10 championship games is played he will never coach in it
I loved the awkward silence after Hope asked for questions.
yeah that was kind of sad. "Well coach, since noone gives a shit about Purdue, we will move on."
Awkward
Hope: We have the most exciting field goal kicker in the Nation
Well, he did kick a 67 yard field goal in the sprang jame.
Work computer wouldnt allow for me to watch it online so I took the higher road and pulled it up on the phone. I dont know why but I am still somewhat astonished by what we can do with a cell phone now. In terms of Hope, I think that Ron Burgandy might be his kid.
Knights of Columbus that's funny!!
Danny Hope looks like he might have to eat lunch in the bathroom because no one wants to sit with him.

No last question for you stash man....NEXT!
Wow, I literally LOL'd at Danny Hope. He just said the divisions allow teams an extra chance to be a champion: "A national champion, a rose bowl champion, a big ten champion, a division champion."
I wonder which one of those Purdue falls into?
Also, no "one last question" for Hope. Hilarious.
I can't wait to see what Joe Pa has to say, he is by far my 2nd favorite coach in all of football.
You know damn well he they sceduled his P.C. around his12noon nap. Maybe he'll poop his pants at the podium.
Serious though gotta love Joe Pa it will be a sad day when he goes.
Oh, goodie goodie. Fickell up next. This should be fun. How bad will the media hound him?
I have to go on watch at noon and will miss Adam Sandler and coach Hoke, thank God for the DVR at home. I wonder if Fickell has his sea legs with the media yet or is he going to look like his head will explode like his intro P.C..
I hope someone asks who OSU thinks it's fooling by dropping the "interim" label from Fickell.
They have one of the easiest schedules... They have 8 home games and besides ASU the none conference is nothing. Also their four away games: Indiana, Minnesota, Purdue, and Penn State....
P.S. Does anyone know why Illinois isn't playing Missouri like they always do??
I think both teams wanted to get rid of the neutral site game so they could make more money off home games.
Fickell looks like he's about to throw up.
Maybe Danny left him a "surprise" at the podium
I think the word "exciting" should not be used to describe the off season at OSU.
Or the Titanic.
Wow, he really looks like he feels thrown to the wolves
While he is talking I can't tell if it seems like he is about to piss his pants or break down crying.
Both
Fickell mentioned Pryor, so much for disassociated....
