    New Salaries for Coaches

    I see people posting their frustrations over players transferring - from a fan perspective. I don’t really see too many posts from people arguing players shouldn’t have the right to make money. I’m in that boat…as a fan, the transfers make it more difficult for me to enjoy college football. I...

    Did I read somewhere that Rossi left for $1.5M?

    The Transfer Portal

    Sorry - I meant Irving. You’re right though, maybe it’s not NIL. Maybe it’s the more liberal transfer rules along with the extra eligibility that’s different. Either way, it seems like we’re losing ground on the portal race the last 2/3 years.

    The Transfer Portal

    I hope you’re right. The last couple years we’ve lost Taylor, Oliver, Carter, Bishop - I was expecting all four to contribute. There were others like Wright and Dunlap who I think would have also helped but left for other schools. I’m not sure we’ve back filled that same talent through the...

    The Transfer Portal

    We’ve done well in the portal over the past ten years or so. My concern is NIL will change it so, going forward, we’ll pick up the better lower level players but lose a larger portion of our better players to NIL. I think a case can be made that it’s already started.

    Saban Retiring. Was one heck of a run.

    There was something in the way he looked after the Michigan loss I thought looked different. Not saying I knew he was retiring. Just saying there was a different look.

    Nice. I don’t think they were even known as the gophers til mid 1920’s.

    tOSU signs 5, 5 stars

    I agree, we’ve brought in some good ones. I’m not sure the best comparison is the number of players though. Blue bloods are only going to be interested in our very best so there will never be as high a number lost to them - just ones that really sting. It’s also worth noting that some of the...

    tOSU signs 5, 5 stars

    I’d be more inclined to agree if we could find a way to stop them from stealing our talent while we steal from the lower levels.

    FSU Want to leave ACC and come to B1G

    A couple months ago I watched a buddy of mine play in Daytona Beach. The rink was in a shopping mall and the upper level served beer. Smelled like every other rink I’ve ever been in.

    She didn’t even let him pretend to take the high road and resign.

    Strack: 3 Takeaways From Gophers’ Ugly Season-Opening Victory Over Huskers

    Not sure I agree with the special ream’s assessment. Giving up the long kick return was bad but the running into the kicker penalty was on the weaker side. The pressure of making a long field goal as time runs out trumps missing a 54 yarder. I’m not saying special teams play was strong but I...

    Chip: Will P.J. Fleck change as a coach, as change swirls all around him?

    If PJ can win by running the ball that’s what he’ll continue to do. If it turns out our QB and WR’s are more talented this year he’ll use that as a tool to keep teams off balance and throw more. No one’s changing a core strategy if it’s still effective though.
