    All Things 2024 College Football D2 and D3 Thread

    John Carroll, who was usually Mount's toughest test in the OAC, is moving to the NCAC next year. Will be good for the Purple Raiders to have another non-conference game.

    Shooter: Buzz about a remodel of Williams Arena could diminish now that the Gophers athletics department could end up having to budget some $22MM

    It's the TV money that matters, the ticket revenue for hoops is a drop in the bucket, especially the difference a couple more thousand people would make.

    looks to me like the worst of it blows through in less than an hour regardless of when it starts

    St. Thomas recruit Ramogi Nyagodi

    They've not been able to attract football crowds anywhere close to what they had for Johnnie-Tommie, and the basketball/hockey crowds are hardly worth mentioning as something that would disrupt a neighborhood as a few hundred people quietly walk to and from their cars. I'm sure neighbors are far...

    St. Thomas recruit Ramogi Nyagodi

    We are one of the few B1G teams too cowardly to play local teams.

    You can play one-off games cross play, but dynasty is limited to your console type only.

    Minnesota will host Lindenwood in 2027

    Last time Lindendwood came to Minnesota in 2004 they were down 10-0 at the half but rallied to beat my Northwestern Eagles 14-10. We should have had another touchdown in the 4th quarter but refs thought a fumble occured just prior to crossing the plane. Looking forward to getting some revenge.

    Concordia-St.Paul kicker Sam Henson commits to the Gophers.

    100% there are guys on every top D3 team that could play D1. Some of them like the St. John's Ben Bartch are even better than that and would have been stars at D1.

    Gophers vs. Tommies

    Can you imagine living in a city where people park in front of your house and quietly walk to an event? Horrifying.

    2024 MN High School Basketball State Tournaments

    The sections at least have a little history in basketball, there's plenty of schools in Coon Rapids section that can put together competitive teams, I'm not really bothered if they get a quarterfinals spot over someone from a different section. I don't consider Coon Rapids to have had a more...

    2024 MN High School Basketball State Tournaments

    It's absolutely disgusting how they set up the seating. They make the students sit 200 feet from the court in the corner so they can have a media section that's mostly empty close to the court.

    All Things 2023 D2/D3 Hoops

    It's not the NCAA it's just the D2 leadership. The D3 tournament is pretty great. They can put conference rivals on opposite sides of the bracket and even avoid repetitive matchups from the past years. They're still constrained by the amount of flights they can put in the bracket but they can...

    All Things 2023 D2/D3 Hoops

    The D2 tournament is just so bad, all the conference teams playing in the same region. Hosting 8 teams at one site and missing out on great environments you could have if more teams had home games.
