Do you think the latest developments in the B1G help Wisconsin in recruiting? Some are making this claim, but to me it is a wash - no pun intended :-). We get more exposure to the West, but the West gets more exposure to our main recruiting areas, the Midwest and East.

Why are all of the sports guys focused on Football in regards to conference expansion? Look at in terms of BB and suddenly Kentucky and Kansas look real attractive.
