Kind of Kinky ...

Physically, yes; maybe even more natural ability. But Coleman just finished his true freshman year--could probably still be molded into a player in a program like PJ's. I'd like to see him here. Coleman, given his potential upside, however, might simply be seeking enhanced NIL money. Who knows?

Curiously, and despite his freak athletic abilities, Nebraska fans (at least those on the Husker Board) aren't particularly sad to see Coleman transfer out. Their claims are that Coleman doesn't try hard on contested balls (despite being 6'4"), doesn't block effectively on running downs and...

By my count, with Loya, we have 35 new players coming (21 HS recruits + 14 transfers in) versus 31 leaving (16 OOE + 3 NFL early + 12 transfers out). If the Gophers stay at 85 scholarships, that means a few more transfers out soon after the bowl game or in the spring portal. I believe, however...

Sounds like a good substitution for Daniels. A push?

I am now feeling much better about our 2025 OL. Two nice portal pickups, plus lots of developing in-house talent. Next project: CBs?

How did ND lose to Northern Illinois?

Out choppin’ wood. Come running.

Shoots the OT theory! He is listed in the portal as an OT, though, not an IOL.

I think Gerlach got some play, too. But he’s got to watch the stupid penalties. 😬 Maybe Karmo comes in and wows at Nickel or LB.

I assume Marshall starts; other tackle job up for grabs?

Top-end OTs go fast in the transfer portal. Here is a list of the top 16 OTs in the portal so far for 2025 season (247 transfer rating)--I stopped the list at our new guy. I've placed in capital letters transfer destination with two OTs in the top 16: Isaiah World, 92.00, Nevada to OREGON...

I thought it was nice. I have low standards, I guess.

I don't believe the Ivies will ever give out athletic scholarships. They give out scholarships based on financial need--and a great many athletes (and students) qualify for partial or complete "needs based" scholarships. But you don't get a scholarship from an Ivy (you might get a third-party...

With USC's campus, NIL money opportunities and reputation, I suspect it reloads fairly soon. Team will be rebuilt in the B1G OSU, Mich, Oregon model of play--will jettison the old PAC-12 model.

Daniels might be another Bucky Irving story ... or he might be another Ky Thomas story. Time will tell. I'm pretty certain of one thing: a RS freshman with three or four B1G starts at RT is not being promised a starting OL spot at tOSU. So, Daniels traded a starting spot here (with essentially...

We beat Edwards last year when he was at MD. Hope we get the same result this coming season.

Hoskins might be a good fit in a more pass oriented offense (probably below P4 schools) that values WR speed and shiftiness, and doesn’t expect downfield blocking on 60% of plays.
