Mar is when things start to heat up and June is when it seems like the boat starts getting full. If we are only at 10 recruits committed by the end of June, then we can start saying things have changed. I personally have no problem with pivoting. Our OC and DC are still fairly fresh at doing...
Glad he is staying!! Fleck has made the Gophers fun to watch on a consistent basis and has also made the NFL more enjoyable. Every year 3-5 players are making it to the NFL and that will continue to drive talent to the Gophers.
I believe he will continue to have breakthrough seasons...
PJ leaving makes sense because:
1.) Sold his house last summer.
2.) OC and DC left jobs under PF for equal level jobs in the B1G Ten.
3.) PJ just had his worst year here since year 1.
PJ Staying makes sense:
1.) because he is building a new home or has built one - not sure what it is.
2) His...
I am just glad we are on the bubble of the bubble. Getting top 25 ranking points doesn't happen unless we beat Purdue, which would take a minor miracle. Otherwise we would have to win 4 of next 5 to get there. I think it will take one more win than one would expect because of how bad the...
2024 - (7-5) record because Brosmer gets hurt in the Iowa came and despite winning the game, it forces Lindsey to start. The Freshmen shows potential, but conservative play calling and inconsistency costs us a few games.
2025 - 10-2 - The foundation was laid in 2024 and the experience Lindsey...
Coyle Report Card:
Football = B+
Volleyball = undecided
W Basketball = C - right idea, just didn't come to fruition
M Basketball = D- should have learned from W-side, but didn;t
Hockey = A
Wrestling = C
Baseball = F - I get Anderson is a legend, but we needed leadership to push him out a few...
Typically - I don't know it is shitty until I ready it. If it is about something I am passionate about I am bound to waste my time.
I did think of the "don't care" category and though it would be a brilliant thing to do to articles that don't stack up. I do get they hypocrisy of it all.
With in inaccuracy of our QB, would have been nice to see him used better this past year. While I do believe a more seasoned OC would have found ways, BSF made it tough to trust in him to much. He seemed to make mistakes when opportunity came his way.

Every year I read articles about college football, B1G Ten or Gopher football that make me think I could do so much better. I was looking...
Reckless Speculation: Fleck has had conversations with Coyle about taking over as AD next year, so Fleck can take his Row the Boat mantra across the MN sport spectrum, focus on leadership/culture, NIL and fundraising. They will use the savings these last few years to make a splash hire in FB.
"Joe Rossi, who was hired away from Minnesota as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach, leads the way with a three-year deal that will pay him $1.5 million in 2024 and increase by $100,000 each of the following two seasons. Rossi, who spent the last six seasons with the Golden Gophers...
ESPN is troublesome because of the way they talk about sports. They slant things to contracts they own and big markets. When Alabama and Georgia met in the title game we had a never ending stream of conversation about SEC dominance. When two, 2024 B1G teams meet they didn't mention the...
Any chance Flores could coach the Vikings and Gophers on defense? Being in the same town would have its benefits - plus it could assist in scouting. Perhaps Bud Grant's son could fill in when there are conflicts. Plus, a little birdie told me that at one time PJ and Flores once ate at the...
