Probably not. But if we get Voss and Petersohn, we'll certainly be much higher than last year. But we take some mid to lower three stars as develpopment projects--wise policy, but pretty much guarantees, math-wise, no top 25 class.
If Cal’s defense is subpar, the Gophs should be able to grind the Bears down, even if Cal’s offense is good. Still, I’d like to blow Cal out of the water.
I don’t think a win at Cal is a foregone conclusion. Cal picked up Devin Brown as a transfer QB from Ohio State. Brown was a very high 4 star, the number 5 ranked QB in his recruiting class. Like Drake Lindsay, Devin Brown has very little game experience but a lot of potential. Based on Cal’s...
The Gophers have a lot of question marks going into the season. But I’ll definitely take the over on the Gophers’ implied finish at 15th place in the B1G … unless PJ delivers a couple of surprising losses to teams that have no business beating us, as he has in some years … or too many top dogs...
We need a legit one and two. Love Brockington, but to me he appears to be best suited as a third option, ala Chris Autman-Bell when he worked with Bateman and Johnson in 2019. We’ve got a lot of guys who could be one and two: time will tell who steps up. I think WR play will be the critical...
The commenter has to mean Anthony Smith on DL. Huge bonus if Jaxon Howard turns out to be the real deal, but Anthony Smith already is. So is Jalen Logan Redding.
i think our defense stacks up with 2019 team, with superior talent in a few places—but CB and LB groups will need some seasoning and...
I'm glad that this year the Gophers start off with two relatively easy (should be, anyway) nonconf opponents. Drake, the new OL and the new WR corps will have some time to acclimate before hitting the road for a tougher game against Cal.
Could really see this kid playing the Henderson hybrid LB/DB spot. We blitzed Henderson a lot. Great if we can keep this recruit committed. Little worried about the money Oregon might offer. Then again, he's a three star and Oregon typically focuses on four stars and fives. Might be a quicker...
Very interesting article. The firing of Haller as AD reduced the football coach's (Smith's) buyout by 50%. Actual numbers? Smith's contract buyout declines from a shockingly low $6M to a miniscule $3M (dead man walking ...). By comparison, Luke Fickell's buyout number at Wisconsin is a little...
