We have some good thoughts on Michigan State hiring Oregon State football coach Jonathan Smith. But we also have a huge question about the news breaking during the Ohio State - Michigan game. Ridiculous timing Sparty! How do you expect to shake your "little brother" status when your big hiring news didn't make front page news that day? 
Speaking of headline grabbing news: Are the Indiana Hoosiers interviewing Jon Gruden to replace Tom Allen? Stay tuned for our short list of candidates for that job. 
Let's not forget we have a Big 10 Football Championship to play for Saturday night between the pesky Iowa Hawkeyes and the Michigan Wolverines! 
Also, Big 10 Men's college basketball begins conference play this week. And the field is set for the NCAA Volleyball tournament which features 5 Big 10 schools. 
Plus we close things out with our Tuesday Tweets and this week includes an exceptional list! It's all right here on Locked on Big 10 with Craig Shemon.
