Good God, enough with the "you're either with us or against us" BS. Nobody is driving a wedge between anybody or creating drama. Re-read the article. Nobody was paraphrased - it was a direct quote attributed to Tingey. No, none of us were at the interview to hear exactly what was said, but it's of my opinion he said it. Do I want him fired for it? Nope. Do I want him doing more of these type of interviews? Nope! Turn down these requests and have your SID do them. He doesn't interview well, period.
Every person who visits this board is a diehard Bengal fan. Sitting on our hands and not questioning anything is what was the norm, and it helped create ISU's downward spiral since the 80's. How many people in Idaho Falls and Pocatello read that article and thought, "Same ol' Bungals?" Changing the perception of the athletic programs happens OFF the field as well. Start acting like an NCAA Division 1 program.
That said, I think Nebraska has a great tradtion and gameday experience. Here's hoping we compete hard, enjoy the opportunity, and come home healthy!
Go Bengals!
