PJ has pretty much said that Braiden Stevens will see the field next year, because he possesses rare speed.

Correct. But I get his point: artificial intrusions into labor marketplaces rarely works. But in the case of professional sports leagues, it can and does yield positive results. Owners get richer every year. And the cap goes up every year -- meaning the players get richer, too. Everyone...

You're a good thinker.

I think Estrada will be playing as RB2 next year. He's faster than Darius, has produced eye-popping production in Texas, and can catch out of the backfield. Following year, the torch is passed, and Estrada is RB1. ...I think all of this is the basic issue for Ijeboi -- he needs to locate...

Jumping in later here and don't want to go back through pages... What does anyone have against Indiana? Seems like a Cinderella team, with a coach that has willed them to excellence. Tip of the cap to the Hoosiers and Cignetti.

Use common sense. Do you think it is more like that: (i) he fumbled, regained possession, and then re-fumbled the ball out the back of the end zone; or (ii) he fumbled, touched the ball with two hands while never re-gaining control of it, thus permitting it squirt out the back of the end zone...

The Regent System may be messed up -- probably is. That said, I can tell you with 100% certainty that: (i) I have a close friend who is a regent; (ii) he is a HUGE Gophers sports fan; and (iii) we text back-and-forth during every football/basketball game -- he's watching live every game. So...

Due to a conflict, I couldn't watch. ...Reading various comments here, I see reference to an eight-point possession. Can someone clue me in: how did that go down?

This time it's Cade doing the communicating. What a selfless, communicative, put-together culture Niko's putting together. Great young men out there.

Agree with all of this. This is the best time to be a non-blueblood and rise to success. You don't need history. Or a "program." Or anything else. Money equalizes. No reason UMN can't get that done.

Agree. He's the sort of WR you'd actually WANT to throw WR screens to. Put the ball in his hands and let him move and pull away. ...Percy Harvin without the headaches? :-)

I checked out his hudl. ...He's noticeably fast -- pulls away from everyone.

Look at Willis pointing out the correct pass -- and the ball, does indeed go to Asuma, who then charges the lane and floats one in. Gotta love the teamwork, communication and selflessness. Two thumbs up.

DT is out today.

I'm a Gophers fan. Help me out here... what's ball movement? Is that like a bowel movement? Or is it something else?
