I only caught the end.
PA asked about recruiting here, if it's gotten easier.
He says he's convincing the kids, but some of the parents are still caught in the view of the Gophers from 20-30 years ago. Changing parents minds is difficult. Changing kids minds is not as tough.
Talked about uniform / colors. Says his target is 18-20 year olds. So when people complain about doing this to the helmet or changing that color, he doesn't care what the older fans think. The kids love it. If he gets the kids to love it, and they come here, and we win more, then the older people will like us more because we're winning more.
Mentioned had highest GPA of any Minnesota Football team. Best back to back classes for recruiting.
Crowd sounded good. PA said half the crowd left when PJ left.
