Screw Alvarez and his son. His son microwaved his roommates parakeet while he attended Wisconsin and his daddy was coach!

Don't worry pos Alvarez! The big ten will never be close to or even match the SEC schools football programs. Loser! What did Wisconsin ever win when you were HC?

I just love the sanctimony of Big Ten coaches and administrators. I guess they have very short memories or have they forgotten:


Minnesota — Seven Major Infractions: During his 13-year stint as Minnesota’s head basketball coach, Clem Haskins oversaw runs to the Elite Eight, Final Four and NIT Championship. Today, however, only the Elite Eight appearance remains in the NCAA record books, as everything Haskins accomplished from 1993-1994 forward was vacated. Prior to the Golden Gophers’ appearance in the 1999 NCAA tournament, a former basketball office manager revealed that she had written more than 400 papers for numerous basketball players over several years. Haskins’ contract was bought out over the summer and he later admitted to paying her $3,000 for her work. As the NCAA investigation unfolded, he was accused of paying players, persuading professors to inflate players’ grades and ignoring sexual harassment concerns. The NCAA administered massive sanctions, notably docking five scholarships over three seasons and instituting recruiting limitations. The entire athletic department suffered, as athletic director, associate athletic director, vice president for student development and athletics and academic counselor were all forced to resign due to the scandal.



Wisconsin — Seven Major Infractions: Just months after its basketball program reached the Final Four in 2000, the Wisconsin athletic department was embroiled in controversy. Twenty-six football players were suspended prior to the season opener after the NCAA uncovered that members of the Badgers’ football and basketball teams were given special credit arrangements at a shoe store. A year later, Wisconsin began serving five years of probation, which included scholarship reductions in both football and basketball, for giving recruiting inducements and extra benefits and its overall failure to properly monitor its athletic program. The Badgers have managed to survive the last decade without any other major violations, and the football and basketball programs have enjoyed consistent success.


Illinois has had five separate probation periods, Wisconsin 4, Michigan State 3, Indiana 2, Minnesota 2, Ohio State 2 (soon to be 3), Michigan 1, Nebraska 1.

Michigan State has spent 10 years on probation, Illinois and Wisconsin 9.

Iowa State has one probation period in its history, from 1986-1988, courtesy of the Jim Criner era.

Well Bret, at least there are no schools in the SEC that have had child molesters on their staff for over twenty years.
