In the 'good old days', the MAC teams were close to B10, on the first 11, but the second 11 wasn't even close. And, if memory serves, Indiana was the place where the Ohio kids went that weren't picked up by tOSU. Well, things have changed. Cignetti must have some secret sauce, to get Indiana playing at the level where they are playing, maybe NIL (?). Anyway, believe it's the same scenario. There ones are playing at a high level, player stars notwithstanding, but am pretty certain their twos are way behind our twos. Do believe it'll be a closer than expected game, (or a rout), and when players get gassed, Sayin will look at the clean uniform, and pick on them. (Yes, I realize game is on fake grass), just an euphonism. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. Go Bucks. Step one to a repeat is upon us.

And I have to get up at 4am for work tomorrow kill me

I think Campbell is actually a great hire for them. But he will have a lot of tricky maneuvering ahead. He has the makings of a talented roster but only if he can keep it. He has the luxury of the portal to quickly recover from the disastrous recruiting class But it has to start now. But his biggest challenge will be to win against a juggernaut like OSU, an energized Michigan and USC, a rising Oregon. He will have more at PSU in nearly every fashion including stout competition.

I doubt they had a choice if they wanted Campbell to sign

ESPiN is heavily biased. The sun comes up in the east. The sky is blue. Water is wet.
The company is about making a profit by building their brand as an entertainment sports company. They have always been driven by the first letter in their name. They are going to push the areas where they have a financial interest (S-E-C), and ignore areas where they do not (B1G) as much as possible. While there is some B1G bias, no one believes with half a brain believes they are fair and balanced. In other words, they don't give a rats ass about Indiana. If anything they will subtly (and sometimes not so subtly) do what they can to tear down the B1G.

Reading their boards, a full scale war is heating up between the "JoeBots" and the rest of the fanbase. The Cult of Joesus wanted somebody who will automatically honor Joe from his introductory presser on, while many others just want to put it in the past more than a decade later.
It's also coming out that Jay Paterno and crazy Anthony Lubrano ( cult member on their BOT) were actively hampering AD Kraft's search in an effort to achieve the cult's goals. The infighting on their boards is glorious reading.
I like Campbell, but I'm not so sure he knows what he's getting himself in to by taking this job.

Two coaches in a row couldn't trash the cult fast enough on their way out of town says something.

And for those who don't remember Crazy Joe Lubrano was the lunatic who showed up to the rally dressed like Joeped to honor him.

Apparently Campbell is bringing former Tress assistant DC Jon Heacock with him.

No, that was Jim. Not Jon. Just FYI.

Arvell has shown, more than shown, that if you buy in and work, you can be a successful first year starter in this offense. That's my best hope for CJ. While I doubt he'll be a starter, if he puts in the work, he'll play big minutes next season and hopefully the lights turn on.
