I don't think excuses are needed when a team loses to a top 5 team. A team that by the way is 14-0 and slapped SB around just a few weeks back.
Why the comparison to SB, are they the model? Why not just admit that your program used to be in the conversation for the national title, now your favorite team is struggling to not fall into the terrible list from the average list.
What's y"your program"?
My program? I don't have a program, I'm just a parent. And what "my program" is doesn't matter when I observe that NU is at the end of the road. Just like Chicago (Evanston too). The glory days have passed your program by.
I'm just a parent too. I don't have a "program" either. Your quote "Why not just admit that your program used to be in the conversation for the national title" ... so since you put it in those terms, what's your program?? I observe that you are just a jealous hater. The likely guess is that you are a parent of a sub par athlete and student who would have no shot of being at a school like NU. Why else would you hate so much??
7 and 7. Title hopes gone, Chitown is the second city and NU is just average. Just live with that fact.
Once that new indoor stadium is built she will be able to recruit the best players - its a horrible place to play and practice. NU has lost the recruiting battle to MD, UF, ND, Cuse, UNC, etc because the environment is much better and NU is not the power house they once were - which came first chicken or egg?
