I'm very impressed by his 10 yards per attempt but concerned about his 16.7 yards per game

Lindsey appeared in 3 games. He appeared but did not throw a pass vs Nevada. He threw 4 passes against Rhode Island and his bio says 1 attempt vs Virginia Tech in the bowl, so like I said he has never thrown a Big Ten pass. And no college passes in competitive game situations.

This is kinda like Where does JJ McCarthy rank among NFL QBs? It's very difficult to know with a guy who has never thrown a Big Ten pass. Appropriate ranking for him in the unknowns. It's an optimistic sign that the Gophers didn't try that hard to replace him with a transfer and that he...

He's got a great chance to make the Vikings roster and maybe even elevate to the backup role in a year or two. He'll get good coaching and a system that brings out the best in QBs and won't have tremendous competition in the QB room as it currently stands.

I'm still skeptical that Ryan Day and James Franklin are the two best coaches and wonder how they would do at programs with less resources. Especially Day. I don't think there's nearly the gap between them and Sherrone Moore that this list suggests.

Bielema is too low and Rhule is too high. Bielema's won this league a couple times and has improved Illinois a lot. Rhule won the AAC and got 2nd in the Big XII once.

I've already said my part on the presidential overreach but I do think getting to a salary cap system would be great for college football engagement and money making. I strongly disagree with the notion that everyone wants to see the same 5-10 juggernaut schools play for titles each year, and...

I'm still hyped about LeMeke Brockington Another big pass game wildcard is how much Darius Taylor is used as a receiver. A big difference between last season and the others under Fleck was how much Taylor was used in the pass game. We'll see if that stays constant with a new QB.

This sounds like a useful marketplace to match athletes with brands looking for a partnership and part of any kind of structured solution. What I would call "true NIL deals" But..it seems like most NIL these days is just flat out buying players and has little or nothing to do with players...

I'm old enough to remember a party that would have said the president dictating what a class of private citizens can be paid was wrong. Communism, even. When the president sticking his nose into the affairs of almost every private industry was wrong, and when they would they would call anyone...

A NIL salary cap or any kind of draft system would be absolutely fantastic for Gopher Football and a dream scenario. A path to the 8th national championship because we're a big fish as an OG Big Ten member in a major metro area, but not able to be the biggest fish under a free-for-all setup...

I remember when there was a party that strongly opposed such ideas. And still does when it's a different kind of person (older, whiter, owner vs. younger, blacker, employee/student) earning the high income.

Anything that has wisconsin = bad is clickbait for me

These fakeouts are always kinda dumb. Especially done against your in-state school. I think the only time the fakeout stunt is fun is when you pretend you are going to Alabama but haha nah it's Minnesota and the crowd in Bemidji goes wild. Underdog and in-state has to win that act.
