Man. Four mid-week games. Those are going to end up being the death of MAC football. Multiple people who have transferred out of the MAC (including Jalen Grant) have said how hard it is to have class and then go play a game.
BG '10

Attended more games than any responsible student should have.

4 mid-week games is brutal. 2 home games during the week, when there are only 5 home games in the first place, is brutal.

It completely screws over fans in favor of the few hundred thousand gamblers that are bored on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Hate, HATE that our conference has been duped into thinking it’s a good thing.

Instead of "Maction" we should change the conference tag to "Love us cuz we hate you"

Just wait until that media deal comes open in a couple years and the MAC does even more to bend over to a carrier.

Hayden Timosieck, a 6’7 transfer QB from Purdue, has committed to BG. He has 4 years of eligibility.

His brother Hyatt is an incoming freshman tight end at Northern Illinois.

PWO at Purdue...Big dude...appears to have a power arm but not too mobile...like Elvis Grbac at UM when Scot was there...I think

on edit...nah, Grbac was there before SL. Ryan Mallet was there when SL was...he was big and immobile...but he was a ***** recruit

I could not find him listed anywhere in association with Purdue last year. Not on a roster or on any stats page.

Big kid...and they certainly need QB depth. He will be welcomed.

He’s on their 2022 roster, though he obviously didn’t play much as a walk on.

I don’t think his release looks THAT slow. He’s also kinda throwing deep bombs on that highlight tape, so I give him a break for that.

No disrespect to Matt McDonald, but I’ve never seen a QB with a slower windup and release than him. So I can live with this - especially for a guy who will be the 3rd or 4th guy in the room.

Tim Tebow?

Hey, maybe that's Scottie L's calling card! I can teach QBs the best ways to NOT throw the football!
