    Tanner’s NFL Journey

    The biggest thing Morgan has going for him is that he wasn't drafted. That allowed him to choose a team (Steelers) who have a wide open QB #3 opportunity. It sounds like he's positioned himself to potentially make the active roster. As a guy who's on record as saying he's too short, too immobile...

    All Things Gophers at North Carolina Road Game Thread (Tips for Flights, Hotels, Bars, Restaurants, Game Tickets & More)

    Hope this helps: - Game time is 2:30pm Minnesota time/3:30 North Carolina time. - Franklin Street is the main drag on campus where there are tons of bars/restaurants. - Tickets are available thru the U. As I understand it (?), the tickets are allocated to season ticket holders based on how...

    Craig McDonald ...come on down ....

    Yep, we started using the 4-2-5 formation under KIll, because his buddy Gary Patterson was using it successfully at TCU. Remember those trips the Gopher staff took down there to study what they were doing? This was one of the results.

    Gophers Recruiting CB Avante Dickerson Again Now That He's In Portal

    I'm late to the thread, and didn't know the background of your post. No harm intended. Peace.

    Gophers Recruiting CB Avante Dickerson Again Now That He's In Portal

    The portal moves fast. Makes perfect sense to offer ASAP, then do some digging. Much easier to drop out of the race, than to play catch-up.

    Gophers Recruiting CB Avante Dickerson Again Now That He's In Portal

    Brown is plan A. Bride (?) from Ga Southern is Plan B. The Dickerson train has left the station.

    Gophers Recruiting CB Avante Dickerson Again Now That He's In Portal

    They did some due diligence, and didn't like something/s that happened in his time at Oregon. It's over. Time to move on.

    Craig McDonald ...come on down ....

    That's certainly a glass-half-empty spin on the situation. We've done pretty well with DB's transferring in from quality programs like Chris Williamson from Florida, or Benjamin St Juste from Michigan. Not sure why people aren't a little more excited about another DB transfer, this time from...

    Craig McDonald ...come on down ....

    Correct. That's the worst case scenario. The best case scenario, is that we got a guy who played well in the Big-12, got run in the SEC before injury, is now fully healed & becomes a solid starter for us for the next three years.

    Craig McDonald ...come on down ....

    The way we use the nickel position is more like a hybrid linebacker, because we play a 4-2-5 base defense, with only 2 LB's. So our 'nickel' needs to act as a de facto 3rd LB, and thus be able to stand up against the run first, but also be a cover guy. Cedric Thompson, Chris Williamson, Justus...

    Visit with Montana St. transfer G Darius Brown II

    The bigger challenge is actually selling the other one, on minutes when we've just signed two veteran guards, have a sophomore returning who played a lot as a Freshman, and a 4* Freshman guard coming in who wants to play minutes at the 1. Hard to find a quality guy who wants to transfer into...

    Koi Perich Commits to Gophers!!!!!!!!!

    Antoine Winfield Jr being around the practice, and talking with Perich was great. In addition to that Perich also had a chance to chat with Dom Barber, another former Gopher safety with NFL cred, plus Tyler Nubin is projected as a 1st or 2nd rounder next year, and Jordan Howden may have moved...

    Zahir Rainer Commits

    I like that Dad had an 8 year NFL career. Dad understands standards, discipline & what it takes to be a pro. He sees that for his son here at the U.

    Jack Wilson commits

    This thread should be in the basketball forum, although Wilson has tried his hand at football. He will be a back-up Center with good size to give us some minutes behind Payne next season. The signing may not 'pop', but finding a mature, big body who's cool with a limited role has value. Solid...

    Knuth No Longer with Team

    Some posters are acting like Kramer is a linebacker gets reps at QB. Kramer obviously doesn't have the arm AK does (not many do), but he's serviceable. Tanner Morgan would be my comparison in terms of arm strength. Practice reports so far this season have Kramer looking really good, and making...
