Crazy new NIL world that we are now a part of... The Torin Pettaway saga reminds me of a scene from the 1980 movie, "Brubaker" ... link below.... **David Keith represents the Badger football program **Robert Redford represents the Gopher football program **the "2-bit steak" represents the...

When I first saw this thread, I assumed hosting 'Lindenwood' in 2027 was about a hot-shot 9th grader who the Gophers were trying to get in on early in the recruiting process?! Little did I know it was about an actual D1 game being scheduled :oops: Why not just go ahead and schedule St...

Looks like Dan Monson made the season ending "One Shining Moment" video... (y)

Historically, believe it or not, the #1 factor in one's decision-making process in selecting a college... is distance from home. Now we can all agree that the ground under our feet is shaking... and things - such as the 'business' of college football - are changing at warp speed. But maybe...

Yeah... some bargains tend to be very expensive over time

Every program in America is going to lose players to the portal

In the past 50 years, the Gophers have played in 21 bowl games (with a record of 10-11). Two of the bowl games were played on New Year's Day (the Citrus Bowl on January 1, 2015, and the Outback Bowl on January 1, 2020). If the U.S. Congress doesn't legislate the sport of football out of...

Cameron Indoor at Duke isn't a whole lot bigger

At least he's not Mega-Tongue, but these (above) are the top three requirements of being an AD. How did he ever get his job??

Coach Wacker was a terrific human being... very honorable, honest and decent. And super positive with high energy. When he first arrived, he talked about the MetroDome being an asset for a wide-open passing attack, where "the conditions were always 72 degrees and dry, with no wind". So he...

Can we all agree that when PJ goes east of the St. Croix River to recruit... that we can now consider this territory part of the Gophers' in-state recruiting?! :p A Bert reference from a number of years ago ;)

If this becomes a reality, then wouldn't you have to change "quad"... to "quint"??

Ummmm ... From that Cincinnati team of 2021, nine players were taken in the following NFL draft of April, 2022. Luke Fickell has recruited and developed some talent.

I wasn't around back in the '50's, but am curious what ever happened to the people who lived/hung out at that Skid Row location?? By tearing down those 'multiple city blocks' in Minneapolis, did the 'problem' magically go away?

another 8-figure buyout for Auburn... their second in the past 24 months, IIRC
