That UNH was better than Kansas is now.
Ironically the 2004 team could beat a low level B1G program, somehow now in the conference that's a heavy lift

because a decent record and a good chance at bowl games mean something to recruits,no matter the conference. getting whooped with no chance at bowls isn't going to convince good players to come here.
Others posted a good question. Are we better off in this conference ? For the paydays, yes. But for competing ?

I'll just address the QBs. I remember being despondent after UNH, but I also thought Ricky Santos was a legit QB after that debacle (had pro written all over him). I think he went on to win the Walter Payton award. I also remember still having faith in what Schiano was building.
Yes, I think Peyton Bender is a decent QB, but Miles Kendrick in no way resembles a P5 quarterback. They both made Rutgers look foolish.
So, I voted for Kansas. Call it recency bias, but UNH was a trap game. KU was not.

UNH. All things a side, Kansas is still a P5 team, perhaps in name only.
Losing to UNH was perhaps more embarrassing for this reason. But if we are talking about which coach you had more confidence in at this point, it would have been GS, even with that horrendous loss.

true, but as a member of the B1G, RU has much more exposure. That UNH game who knows how many people were really paying attention?
UNH was your garden variety letdown. We've seen many of those. No such letdown coming off the OSU beatdown. A coach in his 3rd year should not lose by 41 points to a cellar-dweller. Massively disgusting.
