Yeah, NFL teams typically don't have much behind their starter. Scary part for the Vikes of course is that their starter is unproven as well. The QB position in college has become a lot like it is in the NFL where teams have little to no proven depth behind their starter. The one advantage...

He gets a little overshadowed by Perich but I think those two could be something special to watch this year as both have had more time to develop and get strong/faster.

I can understand the Vikings wanting a little more experience in the QB room given that their starter has never taken an NFL snap. Story does say that Brosmer will probably end up on the practice squad so will still be in the league and maybe have a shot to catch on with someone else eventually.

Would suck to see baseball go away but it is tough to compete in this climate where you are forced to spend a big chunk of the year practicing indoors in a sport that really needs to be outside. Hopefully the U finds a way to continue to field a program, would be unfortunate to go the way of...

Haven't read the full story but glad to hear they aren't planning to spread the revenue sharing super thin. I know a lot of us were concerned that the U would feel obligated to share revenue with non-revenue sports.

Don't know the kid or family but would be shocked to find out the staff was rigid about seeing him as a LB at the next level. They may have been honest in their assessment of him and where they think he would fit best at the college level but there is no way they would say it was a lock because...

It is what they do now in college football to keep on expanding the staff and adding coaches. They make up new job titles.

Well said....just because he failed as a head coach (never should have been hired, wasn't ready at all) doesn't mean he isn't a quality assistant or someone who could earn another shot as a head coach eventually.

I have a hard time calling these day of calls predictions. To me a prediction has some time associated with it, like days/weeks not hours. But for the recruiting guys it is a great way to up their success percentage by waiting until it feels like nearly a done deal to make their "prediction"...

Careful assigning the viewpoints of a vocal minority to the fanbase as a whole. I'm sure there was a lot of denial and hope the allegations were not true but as the facts came out I have a tough time believing the majority of their fans were not horrified and disgusted by what happened.

The people involved should never be forgiven but those people are all no longer associated with the University so it is really not fair to judge the current team/school based on the sins of scum from the past.

In the world of off season fluff this one is pretty solid for a change. Think they nailed the extremes and yeah most likely the actual results fall somewhere in the middle hopefully closer to the high end.

Yep....hopefully more and more guys growing up wanting to be part of Fleck's program.

Won't happen but how cool would it be for Pierce to set it up to have Voss, Trout and Johnson all show up for his signing......get the top 4 in-state together all saying that they are staying home. Would be very cool. Edit - Maybe they could set it up to all sign their LOIs together on signing...

This post combined with the one from Gophernut that proceeded it really hit the nail on the head. Even with all the changes in the college landscape Fleck is still targeting a certain type of personality and that personality lends itself more to finding the kind of players who are willing to...
