    Not a Gopher Mentioned?

    Here’s what the writer missed: QB Drake Lindsay. Duh. Potential breakout players: Nathan Roy; Jalen Smith; Karter Menz; John Nestor; Kerry Brown. Maybe others? https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/big-ten-post-spring-intel-breakout-players-qb-battles/

    Surprise at #4 - CBS Projects Gophers Drake Lindsey to Get Drafted #4 Overall; Greg Johnson 15th

    One pundit (Tom Fornelli) recently published his ranking of B1G QBs for the upcoming 2026 season. He had Drake Lindsay at 13th, behind several senior year QBs and the Illini and Badgers' transfer QBs. I really like Lindsay. I think he stays for two more seasons (for maturity and experience) and...

    Smith

    Interesting list; three of the top 10 from Indiana. Hell has frozen over.

    Tate Wallace Commits to the Gophers

    Odd recruiting side benefit to having UST go Division I? Some parents get to two-fer.

    Tate Wallace Commits to the Gophers

    All of Iowa's LB commits are rated lower than Tate.

    Tate Wallace Commits to the Gophers

    All rated lower than Tate. Maybe they signed the guys they could get after Tate said no ...

    Mikkelsen Commits

    If you watched some Indiana games, you probably remember their no. 3 receiver, Charlie Becker, who really came into his own as the season progressed. Dominant near the season's end in big games. He is 6'4", 205 and very fast--and won contested balls more often than not. Mikklesen might have that...

    A big WR who also can block?

    Fleck says quarterback Drake Lindsey is improved in throwing the deep ball.

    Yup. Force safeties to respect the run and WRs suddenly become better. How much better? That's where the talent part come into play.

    Shula Added To Staff

    Sometimes, when you can't hire Einstein, you default to two heads are better than one. As long as the two heads have played ball and have lots of experience. I'm OK with where the offense is headed under this year's coaching group (Harbaugh, Fruechte and Shula) . Unfair to judge Shula on one...

    Jett Feeney, Moorhead qb, commits

    Per game average, if 8 games: Passing 278 yds; 27 yards rushing; 3.4 TDs; 0.25 Ints, in 6A football. I'll take it.

    Jett Feeney, Moorhead qb, commits

    6' 1" is fine if QB is mobile and accurate. Looking forward to Feeney tearing it up.

    Multiple media outlets list Mark Coyle as a candidate to replace Mitch Barnhart who is retiring as Kentucky AD

    Published report I saw says Esten makes a little over $550K at UST. Moving to the U, where he has worked before and earned his Ph.D., seems like logical step up. Wouldn't even have to relocate. And he can raise money! He's another devil "we know."
