Good morning! This is going to be a daily(ish) post that discusses the goings on of the rest of the Big Ten Conference, and the country as needed. Much like the European Union, the Big Ten is a loosely confederated group of entities that sometimes have the same goals (like free movement of people between countries or not winning national titles in football or basketball) and sometimes accept new members that they later regret (Estonia or Rutgers).
We hope that you will use this post to comment on things happening around the conference and also as a sort of daily open thread to discuss breaking news or argue about Spotted Cow.
- WHO SAYS BASKETBALL PLAYERS AREN’T TOUGH!?!

- The NCAA has a chance to do what is right and allow Micah Potter to play. What are the chances they do it? I’m saying 5%.
The #Badgers also learned that Micah Potter has been granted a telephone conference with the NCAA to state his case. pic.twitter.com/1EesmEzPfp

- 250 rushing yards against Iowa is like 400 rushing yards against most other teams.

- Hopefully Jack Berry is able to recover quickly and get back on the ice.
At his press conference today, #Badgers coach Tony Granato said there wasn't any ligament damage when goalie Jack Berry's left (glove) hand was cut by a skate at practice. Berry needs stitches but might be able to practice later this week.
