I’m in favor of the “TV told me” system.

A mob of kurts votes on whatever they see on TV and that’s the outcome.

It’s almost what happened here if they overturned the result.

Back to the board

I don't know why the NCAA seems to believe there cannot be the slightest hint of nuance to their rules . . . they favor one-size-fits-all solutions and leave no room for distinctions that actually, you know, make sense - By WestSideBlue September 17, 2026 at 01:34:47 PM
- So does this mean the B10 will no longer use the Hawkeye system?* - By Rich September 17, 2026 at 01:38:17 PM

  - We're going to have an old guy with his father's watch and he's going to call out the time every 5 minutes on a cheerleader megaphone. If no such megaphone can be found, the game shall be cancelled.* - By jjwalker September 17, 2026 at 01:42:23 PM

  - No idea, but I doubt it. It does a lot more than just accurately sync the game clock. * - By WestSideBlue September 17, 2026 at 01:41:53 PM
    - Why isn't the B10 weighing in? They have this higher tech system that is more accurate and they are being told it's not useful. Today Dan Patrick was saying 'everyone now agrees WMU won'. Just idiotic. - By Rich September 17, 2026 at 01:45:55 PM
      - The B1G HATES Michigan. They happened to make a decision beneficial to us, but they don’t care. They won’t lift a finger - must protect our valued broadcast partners!* - By LS&Play September 17, 2026 at 01:49:11 PM
        
        The last part of your statement is the key. Tony Pettiti, in addition to being a whoreson cur and unloved puddle of bull-pizzle, is first and foremost a TV guy. That's where he came from, it is his sole "qualification" to be commissioner of a major sports league. - By WestSideBlue September 17, 2026 at 02:04:20 PM
      - They will weigh in if we change our mind about the private equity deal and also suspend Whitt for a couple of games (nm) - By danny September 17, 2026 at 01:49:00 PM
