A stark contrast is developing between the Gophers Men and Women basketball program. Both programs had recent, and necessary, coaching changes. Both teams needed a turnaround. The Men got an inexperienced, never been a head coach deemed to have potential. The Women got a proven, experienced...

In my opinion, a foul in the closing minutes of a game should be OBVIOUS to most everyone. The KC off sides was a penalty. The example of "taking 4 steps" is a travel. So on. Here is my issue with this call. If you slow it down, it is obviously a charge - she was not set. In real time - it...

Sorry I have to disagree. Our overall team athleticism is at the bottom of the B1G. Coach P has the team playing hard - I have no question about effort. But our quickness is especially behind - did you see the number of times we were beat down the court for layups? How many times we could...

Similar to tOSU. That was a shell of the team that played Michigan. The playoffs will correct this for the top 12. But a lot of bad bowl games this year that resembled preseason games/rosters.

By the way, I believe that with their star QB is FSU IS ONE the best 4 teams. But he’s not able to play.

I do. That’s why FSU is not in. FSU with a 3rd string QB is not one of the best 4 teams in the country.

I fully expected that. I believe their goal is to get the 4 best teams at season’s end into a playoff. Unfortunately, without their star QB, FSU is not one of the 4.

See - you prove my point with your comment. You took the historical data to justify the current situation. If that’s what the purpose is, than your logic is correct. But I believe the purpose is to get the best 4 teams at season’s end to playoff. If you watched Alabama/Georgia and...

Is the purpose of the playoffs to have the 4 best teams right now play? If so, it should be Washington, Michigan, Texas. And either Alabama or Georgia. FSU has not shown the offense ability since their QB went down. If the purpose is to reward teams for their overall performance during the...

FSU is not one of the top 4 teams right NOW after their QB went down. They are going to finish 5th and the committee will specifically mention the injury. Washington Michigan Texas and Alabama are in.

As someone who plays a little pickup bball with the FogDog, Fleck would love to have Ricky as QB. Ricky never passes the ball anymore to anyone.

I have played, coached and refereed for almost 40 years. I can spot a real coach. Plitzuweit is one.

I guess the thing that bugs me the most is that Coyle took the chance on Lindsey - and found out that she was not able to coach having not had any meaningful coaching experience. Then he did the same thing with Ben. Coyle's hiring record is mixed - mainly because he over values personal appeal...

Absolutely need to get to 20 - it makes too much sense. Stanford for sure - and Notre Dame. If not Notre Dame - how about Cincinnati? 4 divisions of 5 teams. Something along this line In Football, you play your pod and then all the teams in another pod for 9 games. Switch pods every...

One of the things that makes ISD 197 unique is St Joes - a HUGE Catholic Grade school - that sends almost all their kids to STA, Cretin, and other private / Catholic high schools. Those kids have never been really in the ISD 197 schools system, but participate extensively in the Mendota Hts/WSP...
