How does this revenue sharing and cap thing work for schools like Quinnipiac or Denver or North Dakota? Can they just go all-in on hockey and make the Big Ten hockey programs that share an athletic department with many revenue sports obsolete?

The Bret Bielema love-fest is a thread I never expected to see on GH Am I going to log in tomorrow and see Who Loves Iowa? We Love Iowa!

When they do HYPER they better accept HYPRR

Is this good for a young QB's development? He's at an elite program with high school elite resources and other elite players around him but QB on easy mode with his guys winning all their individual matchups ends the day he walks in the door for his first Gophers practice.

Well, that means either Minnesota or wisconsin's QB in the '27 class isn't even starting on their high school team. Which means one will almost certainly transfer. It's wild that high school QBs (and a lot of hoops players) are well versed with transferring by junior year of HS.

I still remember that game, the only football game I ever watched from a suite. Right on the goal line of the fateful end zone, the opposite end zone to where I always stood as a student, row 1 on the goal line at the Dome. My roommate at the time was a very casual wisconsin fan and left with...

I had no idea he was still playing football. I always thought he could fill some kind of specialist role because he was big, athletic, and brutally effective at the goal line. Maybe they have Taysom Hill type ideas for him.

this is a really great place to be a RB Fleck picks his guy and runs him enough to win a Heisman if he gets the blocks and has the moves If Fleck ever goes to the NFL I'm picking his RB1 first in the draft. One dude, all the time, all the goal line carries.

When you put it this way, the fact that the Gophers have finished in the top of half of the Big Ten standings in 4 of the last 5 regularly scheduled seasons (ex 2023) is more impressive.

this happens every season. Fleck gets early commits but the Gophers are seldom in the mix for many of the guys who decide close to NSD. Usually drifts back from the top 20 to somewhere in the 30s or 40s

Has a very impressive academic offer list and is sure to help the team GPA! RTB!

I remember when we were assured Fickell was entering the Big Ten as one of the top 3-4 coaches already from day 1 and was going to mop the floor with Fleck and Ferentz and get wisconsin to the playoffs.

Is he? He had a lot of drops his senior year but he made the 53 man for Dallas as a rookie and appeared in every game.

I wouldn't count on it, considering one provision in the oxymoronic "Big Beautiful Bill" is to ban all states from regulating AI in any way for at least 10 years. The "states rights" crowd must have taken the day off the tune always changes when it's their guy centralizing all power

Especially notable for Gray to return since he had a bunch of years away from the TC with Buffalo and Miami in the NFL.
