    The Big Ten has played some very obscure teams over the years

    I'm surprised PJ hasn't tried to name our football team "Minneapolis Boat Club" Also look at Maryland playing the "Chemical Warfare Service" and their famous Mustard Gas offense

    Spring Practice Observations

    I'm 99% sure a healthy Max will be the starter for the first 3-4 games at least. Even if he doesn't look as good as the freshman in practice. It's different in real games and PJ will want to see what Max has in live fire situations. However, if he stinks he's likely to get pulled pretty fast...

    Disillusionment

    The only reason NCAA-level basketball is profitable is our historic affinities to the schools. Most other minor leagues don't pay well at all and operate on the edge of bankruptcy, especially if not supported by the top league. If the players have zero affinity to the schools, why will the...

    Former Gophers QB Demry Croft to start for AFL's Minnesota Myth

    The lowest moment in Nebraska football history (and it has a good deal of competition) was losing to Fleck's first Gopher team 54-21 and allowing Croft to go off for 183 rushing yards on only 10 carries and win the B1G offensive player of the week. That Gopher team got shut out by a total of...

    Is this the Next evolution of NIL - Corporate Sponsors (FedEx Inks Deal)

    Lay’s could sponsor a chip on our shoulder, but who can we sell the crack to?

    Is this the Next evolution of NIL - Corporate Sponsors (FedEx Inks Deal)

    When the QB throws it into the turf on a 5 yard out route while the receiver wears this the memes are going to be wild

    Would a giant Best Buy price tag on our helmets be too on the nose?

    NFL draft sleepers on ESPN+

    Anyone heard much on BSF? I know he didn’t have a great 2023 but he was on many top 5 TE lists in preseason and he’s got great size and decent speed for his size. He seems like someone who might make a better pro than college player

    JAXON HOWARD A GOPHER!!!

    Glad he's coming home! Some of the graphic design in this thread is wild. The knees in the Hayes Fawcett from on3 look like an AI hallucination (they may actually be this). The GOAL!!! one is also weird

    NFL draft sleepers on ESPN+

    I've seen a wide range of mock draft takes on Nubin, everything from early 20s to mid 3rd round. Here's hoping he makes it in Rd1

    Which QB do the Vikes draft?

    He will go long before the 3rd round. A lot of mocks have him going no later than 16, some in top 10. But few seem to have the Vikings just staying at 11 and taking him. Media is obsessed with them chasing and trading up. NFL talent evaluators thought Josh Rosen and Sam Darnold were better...

    Which QB do the Vikes draft?

    Let me get this straight. The Vikings might trade 3 1st rounders for JJ McCarthy when they can probably sit at 11 (and maybe 23) and get Michael Penix, Jr. Give me Penix. Penix has good size, a strong and accurate arm, huge hands, and 4.6 speed. He's extremely experienced as a college player...

    Matt Birk: If college athletes enter the transfer portal they shouldn't be eligible for NIL money.

    The giant air drop of trillions in printed money handed out with extremely limited accountability during the Trump administration, which is now used to blame inflation on the Biden administration. I'll use it in a sentence. Forgiving massive six- and seven-figure PPP loans for conservative...
