    The Gophers need to get into the statue-erecting business too outside of Huntington Bank Stadium.

    Indeed but it is part of our history. Not hiring Bud Wllkinson and ending up with Wes Fesler is number one. In the seventies I remember Sid talking about how Minnesota got the number two running back in Pennsylvania,. Number one was Anthony Dorsett who as a pro was Tony Dorsett with the...

    Bob and Richard McNamara should both be honored both for on field play but also off-field work on behalf of the University. Bobby Marshall was the first African-American to play in the Western Conference (which is Big Ten before it was renamed). Member for College Football Hall of Fame...

    Gopher Softball 2025

    Pittsburgh i(19 wins) is basically the same as Minnesota. The home team beat the visitor. Neither are good and are at the bottom of their conference. North Dakota has 25 wins but SOS is in the 175-200 range. Basically weak team playing weak teams. The Gophers finally got the chance to play...
