Varsity Magazine Vol 5 No 12 IN [FOCUS] TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE WHERE THERE’S SMOKE... There was plenty of fire in the Badgers’ pregame huddle on Wednesday as No. 3 Wisconsin prepared to open its season with an exhibition contest against UW-Parkside. The Badgers dispatched of the Rangers before a sellout crowd that crammed into the Kohl Center for its first look at the preseason Big Ten favorites.

The preseason All-American led all scorers with 19 points and also grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds.

Schro- bilgen repeated as individual champion and was named Big Ten Athlete of the Year. PHOTO BY WALT MIDDLETON IN [FOCUS] TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE TURNING A CORNER Wisconsin raced to its best Big Ten showing since 2008 with a runner-up finish at the conference championship last Sunday, continuing a season-long surge for a program that jumped to No. 6 in the national rankings this week. Junior Molly Hanson, an All-American on the track at 1500 meters last year, took fifh to help move the Badgers back up the podium in cross country. PHOTO BY WALT MIDDLETON IN [FOCUS] TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE TOUCH AND GO It wasn’t quite a playground game of touch football, but Wisconsin’s defense made it look easy in holding Rutgers scoreless for the first time in 12 years last Saturday. Linebackers Joe Schobert (lef) and Marcus Trotter kept Rutgers starting QB Gary Nova on his heels and helped the Badgers’ nation-leading defense hold the Scarlet Knights to just 139 total yards in a 37-0 win.

Clement rushed for a game-high 131 yards and a pair of touchdowns ― covering 43 and 36 yards ― against the Scarlet Knights en route to his first Big Ten Ofensive Player of the Week honor.

Brindle scored a goal in the 72nd minute to tie the game and force overtime, while Caban helped the defense close out the 2-2 draw in double overtime.

  • Concussions and Contracts: Can Concern Over Long-Term Player Health Pave the Way to Greater Guarantees in Nfl Contracts?
    CONCUSSIONS AND CONTRACTS: CAN CONCERN OVER LONG-TERM PLAYER HEALTH PAVE THE WAY TO GREATER GUARANTEES IN NFL CONTRACTS? Mason Storm Byrd* Guaranteed money in an NFL player contract is often misrepresented when discussing the earnings of professional football players. Whenever an NFL player signs a new contract, purportedly setting a new benchmark and surpassing previous highs for compensation, reports of record guarantees dominate the news coverage. Lost in the reporting, however, is the actual guaranteed take-home pay of the player if the worst were to happen and he were to never play another down of football. In a sport riddled with injuries and short careers compared to other professional sports, the most important contract figure is not total compensation, but total guaranteed compensation. Unlike professional basketball and professional baseball, NFL players do not receive fully guaranteed contracts, meaning they play one of the most dangerous sports and do so with some of the least financial assurances. This is especially troubling in light of the recent revelations, research, and litigation focusing on head trauma in NFL players. Although there is certainly desire among NFL players to obtain larger guarantees in contracts, there has rarely been the will or ability to do so. NFL players are free to attempt to negotiate for larger guarantees on an individual basis with any team interested in their services, but history suggests that large sums of guaranteed money are reserved for only for the most elite players. Even then, guarantees rarely exceed 30–50% of the total compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is still opportunity for the players to negotiate for larger guarantees in contracts through means of collective bargaining when the NFL–NFLPA Collective Bargaining Agreement expires in 2021.

    Summer 2020, Volume 96, Number 2 From the INTERIM PRESIDENT Showing Our Stripes, Roaring Forward In times of great crisis throughout history, our LSU family has always responded with great resiliency and resolve to serve our state and country and to support one another. Faced with a pandemic that has brought unprecedented disruption, Tigers across the nation are once again rising to meet the challenge of this historical moment by helping their neighbors and communities. The medical professionals heroically treating patients on the frontline of the coronavirus fight include many LSU alumni. They are supported by our innovative LSU researchers, who have achieved breakthroughs in testing, PPE production, and clinical trials on treatment options and potential vaccines. Through these and countless other inspiring efforts by our LSU family to fight the pandemic, we have shown why great research universities like LSU exist. By leveraging our extensive expertise, innovation, research, assets, and facilities, our LSU family has helped flatten the curve and continues to play a vital role in our recovery. The dedication and determination displayed by our students, faculty, and staff – who quickly transitioned to remote learning and working during the spring semester and persevered with great success – has been equally inspiring. And though our celebration looked different this year, it was with great joy and pride that we recently honored the amazing accomplishments of our Class of 2020 graduates. We look forward to holding an in-person commencement ceremony for them on our flagship campus when it is safe to do so. “We will continue to As our new graduates enter the workforce, many of the career opportunities they were hoping to take advantage of have suddenly evaporated due to the persevere through this economic crisis created by the pandemic.
