    All Things Emmanuel Karmo (Robbinsdale Cooper HS) Recruitment Thread

    Would you guys rather he NOT list Minnesota in the top 7 to protect your emotions if he goes elsewhere? Personally, I'm glad that most of the top local talent keeps MN on their list until the bitter end, even if they choose to attend elsewhere. Of course, there are many examples of them...

    Antoine Winfield working toward a deal to make him NFL's highest-paid safety, Bucs optimistic, per report

    He's shown up to a few practices IIRC. Not sure many former players (especially those who are busy with an NFL career) are doing much more than that, but it seems like PJ has stayed connected with guys like him, Bateman, Coughlin, etc.

    Minnesota Golden Gophers Tied for Lowest Win Total in Big Ten With 4.5 Wins Predicted for 2024

    Without looking at any schedules, I’m feeling the UNDER on Indiana, Maryland, and MSU. OVER on Iowa, Minnesota, and OSU. I’d hold off on the others. Yeah the “vig”, or cut the house takes, is way too big on these. Makes sense because it’s VERY early and hard to predict these things, so the...

    Minnesota will not go 2-10 (0-9) Minnesota will not be an underdog in every B1G game at kickoff Nobody knows how Minnesota will do next year Very possible they don’t make a bowl game Very possible they’re much better than they were in ‘23

    Best players to turn down the 2024 NFL Draft by position 👀

    Agree with this. These kids aren’t stupid, so if somebody was in his ear saying he’d be a day 1 pick this year, he’d be gone. He does seem like an NFL player given the consistent praise from both the staff and PFF, so I’d be surprised if he doesn’t make it next year.

    PFF: Highest Graded Offensive Tackles

    Fleck has been saying Ersery was a big time, NFL-level talent since before he was a starter. Been a great anchor of the line for a couple years and it’s nice to see external data validating that.

    SI: Ranking projected Big Ten starting quarterbacks in 2024 (7. Max Brosmer, Minnesota)

    I only pay attention to Clint Brewster’s ratings, so HMU when those come out. He nailed Athan at 14 last year, lol

    2023-24 Other Bowl Games Thread

    Michigan is dominating up front on both sides. They’re going to win unless they make a few more critical errors a la the fumbled punt. Bama is a good 2nd half team though, so it’ll be interesting to see whether Michigan keeps up with any adjustments Bama made. Great game. I’m happy to see it.

    Pop Tarts marketing team NAILED this, lol. That whole game atmosphere was surrounded by the “edible mascot” and the best kind of kitsch. The giant toaster, haha…I just can’t.

    Does PJ Fleck run his running backs into the ground?

    You forgot one: Backup RB gets a carry and either fumbles or fails to convert on short yardage and GH is livid Taylor wasn’t in the game. Seriously though, as others have said above, Fleck did NOT do this early in his tenure here or as recently as ‘21. IMO, Mo (and now Taylor) have messed up...

    Reusse: Forgettable Gophers football season ends with victory in Basement Bowl

    This. Watched with my dad and was texting my brother the whole time. It’s another opportunity to connect and enjoy what we love. Others have said it here, but football is always better than no football in my book.
