Just glancing through rankings - Wisconsin signed 12 players
- Thread starter dawgatUSM
- Start date
Sporting News reported Thursday that Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez will speak with Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany about Meyer's recruiting methods during the league's next athletic director meetings.
Meyer, of course, made his previous coaching stop in the SEC at Florida
Meyer's arrival and big splash on the recruiting trail, which included flipping several recruits committed to other Big Ten schools, clearly has rankled coaches in the league. There's a belief, whether it's real or not, that things are done differently in the Big Ten. Bielema spells it out to the Sporting News' Matt Hayes, saying, "We at the Big Ten don't want to be like the SEC -- in any way, shape or form."

Apparently they are taking a page fromthe Yancy Porter playbook. Because here they claim it's a top 25 class.

Two things about that statement:thatsbaseball said:
1. You don't want to WIN? What a great message to send to your athletes and fanbase. Like or not, Big Ten toolbags, the SEC is the gold standard in athletic conferences. Notice the rather long string of National Championships? Yeah, this statement comes off like a petulant child.
2. Don't try to come off like Wisconsin and the Big Ten are on some sort of moral high ground. It makes you sound like a prick. Your programs are just as dirty as ours and pretending otherwise is ignorant beyond belief.
Signed 12 guys, finished just ahead of ole miss somewhere in the 60s.
Temple signed 35 guys this year. What?

if you`re going to coach , recruit and WIN in the SEC you`ve got to be smart(unless you`re at LSU)and work your *** off. The Big Ten is a good ole boy league where the Bob Stoops and Urban Myers of the world with their SEC work ethiccan kick *** recruiting and Meyer will also win BIG. 17 the Big Ten.
Holy crap!!! So if a player commits to a Big 10 school then the other schools just quit recruiting. Thats retarded and the worst competitive nature I've ever seen. Their 17 and 18 years old, they don't know what they want, the players should be allowed to go thru the recruiting process till signing day.</p>
he said when they made that "gentleman's agreement," he basically told the rest of the coaches to 17 off, he wasn't abiding by it. he knew exactly what kind of ******** it was and he basically said that the big 10 would never compete with the SEC as long as they are pussified like they are now with recruiting.
