True and it is frustrating but I would also bet it isn't something unique to us as I am sure lots of teams have lingering and pre-season injuries to deal with on a yearly basis.

Not ideal but hopefully he is in fact cleared for the start of the season.

Don't disagree, hopefully they fill out these remaining spots with a few quality opponents. Does have to be great teams but at least schools most fans have heard of.

If they can get a game or 2 against a solid opponent to fill out the remaining spots this will be a far cry from any of the schedules we have seen the past few years. Non-conf schedule is going to feature a lot of cupcakes, and there is nothing wrong with that as long as it also features a...

Has actually had back to back years of being mostly healthy and starting. But he finally broke through last year and became a key piece of their passing game. It is interesting looking at his stats. He only had 16 more targets and 13 more receptions in 2024 vs. what he had in 2023. But his...

PSU gets similar treatment based mostly on history and tradition. But there is something to be said for the schools that have stuck with a fairly similar look in a time when teams are all over the place with uniforms and helmets.

Tough to answer that question because I'm not sure what would be considered successful in year one. My hope is that Niko has assembled a roster that can be competitive in the Big Ten and if things break right maybe push for being at least a bubble team this year. The big thing Niko has going...

Shocker that the other power conferences would not be in favor of a plan to give the Big Ten and SEC 8 guaranteed spots in the playoff on a yearly basis....while only giving their conferences half as many.......

Badgerwire.....there is no way we are ranking high on any list that comes from that site. But yeah the criteria is stupid....basically if you have a logo he likes the helmet if you don't he doesn't. Wisconsin with a big W is boarderline top 5, Minnesota with a big M is 2nd to...

Can we please get a note in the thread title when the source is Badgerwire so that we know not to bother with the thread? :) In the sea of dumb lists this time of year, Badgerwire consistently produces some of the dumbest by far.

Seems like a kid with a good head on his shoulders who is looking at the bigger picture. Beating out Penn State, Michigan and Wisconsin for a kid is pretty sweet as well.

Would certainly seem like this would probably help Garcia's case but who knows. 16 is over 50% of the regular season so they could use that as their mythical cutoff line I guess. Seems like there is little to no news in terms of what Garcia is doing so no clue if he is even still actively...

I don't think that will move many in the Big Ten either....prior to right now I had never once given a single thought to the number of (checks post) nobel prize laureates....I mean it is a cool stat but yeah don't think it is going to move the needle with most sports fans in terms of which...

Yeah but.....it just means more.....I mean sure a bunch of hot garbage Big Ten teams beat SEC teams in bowl season but that doesn't prove anything.....SEC SEC SEC SEC. :)

I agree, would love to see some sanity and consistency back in the area of eligibility at the very least in this chaotic environment. That said....Dawson 100% fits a need on this roster and would make the 25-26 version of the Gophers instantly better. That said part 2.....wasn't his case...
