Can we all just collectively say Good F-in Riddance.  Hope Michigan gets an ample say in his replacement, and the refs for certain high profile contests

So what's the B1G fan equivalent of the munchkins in the Wizard of Oz singing "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead"?  I guess we'll find out next year.

Classic case where he did some good things early on-the Big 10 was ahead of the curve on several things, including the network.  But he ran out of ideas and stayed to long.  A mixed record at best with a bad finish.

He will never make to 6/2020 and shouldn't.

Why do you think he'll never make it?  Do you think someone will assassinate him?  Will he die of a medical issue?  Car crash?  Just retire early?  Expound on this, please...

Guy is old, but he has access to the best medical care money can buy (God knows he has enough money to buy his own plan), and - according to various posters here - masturbates regularly.  So I'd guess he's in fairly good condition...

If anyone thinks his replacement will be some Michigan-friendly guy who cares way more about B10 Sports than money, you are sorely mistaken.

While I hope for a Michigan friendly commish the truth is that OSU is driving the money cart and I'm looking to see Gene Smith behind the wheel in the not so distant future. Or someone of that ilk.
