    Minnesota quarterback Zach Pyron has entered the transfer portal as a grad transfer, @On3sports has learned.

    I don’t disagree. I’m just saying that it’s always obvious that PJ has a guy. Not even complaining if he picks the right guy which he did last year and we should all be hopeful that Lindsey is the real deal he has all of the measurable’s. I just lost count of how many times PJ was quoted the...

    Bryce Benhart

    I think the best way we can put it about this kid is our team missed absolutely nothing by having him be a Cornhusker versus a Gopher. How he played overall you could argue we were better off. The Nebraska fans disliked him just as much as we did.

    Niko’s roster construction

    I think the biggest danger with Niko is if he goes out and fills up a roster with multi year players that are middling. Right now, he’s kind of on that tack but it’s too early to say.I would rather struggle more next year and have him save his bullets for when he has his program in place and NIL...

    Niko’s roster construction

    We have had an amazing run of poor choices for basketball coaches following a scandal. It’s as easy as that. I have referenced this before but wen the Voshon led team dropped 100 on Bobby Knight and almost 19,000 people were going completely apeshit all was right in the world.It’s gonna take...

    Shooter: Gophers' NIL budget this season —lowest in the Big Ten — was in the $700,000 range, of which Dawson Garcia got $500,000.

    I can’t get my head around how we could have possibly managed it so poorly on the basketball side, but PJ seems to play the portal like an absolute genius? This number for hoops seems impossible.

    All Things 2025 NCAA Tournament Games Thread

    I think a cogent argument could be made that us taking Jelly instead of Wright culminated with where we ended up now— with the caveat that things hopefully it look better into the future. There’s a good chance Pitino is still here had he made a better choice there and it certainly appears that...

    Kyan Evans

    Arguing other than post freshman year Gabe was anything but a significant disappointment would be silly. His shooting slump continued for two full years.

    All Things Christian Wiggins Recruitment Thread (Wayzata Guard, 2026)

    What can really be said in a positive note about Ben other than he was a kinda a nice guy? We have a professional in the building now so things will be brighter. I keep repeating to my buddies that I hope Niko’s here for 20 years. That more than anything would mean we finally get our shit...

    Niko’s roster construction

    Because the NIL money’s not gonna just show up out of thin air immediately. I’d hate for him to “settle” for middling players who will handcuff us from getting where we need to be say two-three years down the road. It’s just unrealistic for expectations to be that he’s going to fix most of what...

    Niko’s roster construction

    I don’t think we should have expectations that Niko’s gonna be able to come in and solve the NIL issues and put together a better than .500 team for the upcoming year. There is just not time to get all that done. Next year is where the rubber will hit the road. If I were him, I would take a good...

    South Dakota kids are much more apt to follow Nebraska or Iowa.

    P.J. Fleck : “The QB competition is going to be fierce. It’s going to be a lot of fun. It has already started.” (Video)

    There isn’t any competition if PJ has shown one thing that he’s consistent about it’s choosing his QB horse early and then riding him out. It’s Lindsey, which I think is nice but in today’s world you gotta pretend like there’s competition so that we don’t lose the other guys as QB depth is critical.

    Well, thank God you chimed in here all of we inferior basketball minds are so much wiser now that you chimed in.

    Skor North discusses Medved hire and the Coyle problem

    Not a big common fan, but Coyle is the best of the lousiest as it relates to Gopher A.D.’s, and he’s nowhere close to top five in the Big Ten.

    Favorite Friday = Who is Your favorite Gophers running back?

    I was in college so couldn’t watch the game but my brother (LB) played against DT in HS talked to my dad after said my brother had a boat load of tackles but the yards after contact were significant. I did see him play HS hoops live he was an amazing athlete.

    Done Deal! - MINNESOTA HIRES NIKO MEDVED!!

    It is mostly the coaches we chose poorly multiple times in a row. Frankly, we’ve done the same thing with our A.D. hires for close to a half century. Realistically, and even with all of his significant warts, Coyle is probably the best one we’ve had and it pains me to say that.

    Gophers TE Jameson Geers, a senior, called this the “most connected” team he has seen.

    I’ve been a Geers supporter and sometimes apologist for the past couple of years. I hope he breaks out in a big way.

    Favorite Friday = Who is Your favorite Gophers running back?

    I really liked Thompson and Maroney, but I thought both of them started tiptoeing around in their final seasons when first round money was beckoning from the NFL. I’d go MB3, Mo and Cobb in no particular order.
