I disagree. I think as long as other programs, like ours namely, step up to fill the void, I don't think it's a big deal. IU should be on the upswing, PU has been, UM is, OSU seems to have stabilized, IL improved, WI has made the transition fine. If a couple of those teams rise to fill the role nationally, we'll be fine and could be better as MSU hasn't exactly set the national scene on fire the last dozen years. The conference has survived IU's swoon, primarily with WI and MSU being the stalwarts, let's take our turn at the top and not give the baton back.
