It’s literally been 5 days. JP might feel confident where we could end up, but his work has just begun. Long was to go.
Wendy Wintersteen & Jamie Pollard Address the Fans

My biggest takeaway from the video is that after all these years, ISU still can’t stick to one god damn Pantone scheme.
The more I think about it, the more of a **** move this is from OU/Texas. I get you have to look out for yourself but this is basically a guy walking out on his wife of a decade+ and publicly flaunting his new GF who he’s been dating recently. AND while staying married for a few years.
At a minimum, doing this all behind everyone’s back is shady as hell.
The big12 owns texas and ou broadcast rights for the next four years. Think of the value of that. It dwarfs the penalty they have to pay once they actually leave the conference. This could take a long time to wrap up.
I played it backwards. It was extremely revealing. There is even sign language telling us the possible outcomes when you do that.
Reading this thread, here are the 2 ends of the spectrum from how people are reacting to the video.

But was officially named a Big 10 Special Advisor for Football this week: https://bigten.org/news/2021/7/22/b...-conference-special-advisor-for-football.aspx
Bowlsby is a lifer in college athletics. He knows everyone and is generally well respected. Pollard has been in the business forever too and knows him very well. His comments were probably sincere. I'm guessing he genuinely feels bad for Bowlsby and wanted to say something in support of him publicly.
Not sure if serious, but you do know they essentially turned the keys of B1G football over to him, right?
Yeah "Everyone contacting Him" he had to get out and do this. You can only guess how his email and phone has been blowing up....and being chased around the lake all weekend too.
Personally I dont know what telling JP in this situation from a fans perspective would do, its not like he doesnt know what everyone is thinking from our end. But some people just gotta. LOL
Exactly. Bowlsby dropped the ball on this, and is a former Hok stooge, but what good does it do to throw him under the bus publicly? Yeah, it would be therapeutic AF ... so what. The man has connections. Maybe one of those connections will pay a dividend down the road.

Actually the more I think about it. Drinking lemonade on central campus underneath the camponile on a bright sunny day would've been the best
I think he means that Wisconsin could be a destination for Pollard. But they already hired an AD.
The script very well may have been lawyer written, which is why it sounded so awkward at times.
This was 100% directed at the Traitors. There’s huge $ at stake here and the 8 need to squeeze everything they can get. Don’t rule out some kind of tortious interference claim against the SEC as well. Slinking around in the background, manipulating events and trying to cause contracts to be prematurely canceled makes for a strong claim by those injured.
We're the crazy little 8. We ain't got no future and we're so desperate we'll make you (Texas and OU) travel to all of our venues and play our crappy little teams. We'll "horns down" your players and boo your cheerleaders so pay up and gtfo! We're just crazy enough to do this for 4 long.....painful.... awkward years.
It would be great if the other schools put out the same message. TX and OU would s**t in the pants because this is not their plan despite what they say in their press release.
