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...
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
For those who won’t/didn’t watch, it’s Brian Cupito. Moved back to the cities and settled in Minneapolis 4 years ago. Coaching football and basketball at Phelps Community Center so his kids can experience life in the city. His FB team apparently won a big national tournament in Vegas last year...
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.
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...
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.
