This is about how do we create a system where college programs can pay "student/athletes" $30 million out of the schools athletic budgets and still continue to give the schools what they have been getting. Sure some programs won't be able to keep up, but the top 2 and the second 2 conferences...

I give the Badger writer credit - this is a interest/hard group to rank and a interesting take. However, Badgers at 4 is ridiculous. Still there really isn't a lot of great combo's here and the best combo's seem to be more about what they did elsewhere then what they have done here. In 3-5...

Since the best indicator of future performance is past performance I can only assume this year he will have these numbers if he is given 25 pass attempts a game. 300 pass attempts, 240 completions, 60 TD, 0 INTs and 3,000 yds. I feel confident in these numbers - however, I am sure an...

I am seeing a lot of "hope it sticks language on here" and it is even from myself. However it should be noted - next year we will have 3 (Cashman, Gibbons and Lindenberg) or 4 if you count Boye Maye as a OLB. All of which went to the NFL under Fleck. Because we are not a linebacker U - you...

Appreciate the commit, hope it is not an play to get more NIL. Things like this are all about character and culture. I hope the guy ends up proving to be a great fit for the U of MN. In the end, we do live in exciting times. The thought that we get a handful of recruits every year that...

If this doesn't say I am a NEbraska commit, I am not sure what does. You can't even make picking Nebraska the highlight of the selection.

Minnesota is right behind the current "Big 4" and as was mentioned before - WI, NE are missing with Iowa with only 1 person drafted. Will be intereting to see how draft unfolds for the rest of the Gopher gang.

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/mock-draft/ Amazed that 4 drafts don't have Ersery in the 1st round and the one that does has him going #13 to Miami. I have a hard time believing with the proven work ethic, athletic abilities and growth in his game that he does not go towards the end of...

I feel as bad for the Badger as they felt when Bret made Brewster his *itch.

Just read somewhere that the average Utah family has more buying power than anywhere else in the US - high wages compared to cost of living. I would think Utah would be a throw in with someone else (BYU?, Colorado? or Stanford?). This only makes sense if it helps bring in a reasonable partner.

After the dad and kid get a ton of backlash from how they handled this and lose out on tons of money, what the kid will need is a "life program." A place that can develop him into a man where he can compete for a starting spot. No million dollar contracts, but a place where he can mature as...

I don't understand how people can give BEN a pass on NIL. We are low in NIL because he couldn't cast a vision with the players and the business leaders in the community of building a dominant MBB program with MN born or raised players. The coach needs to be the programs biggest vision...

Kid probably has already become a huge Vikings fan and just wants to know if Rodgers is waiting to sign with the Vikes in the summer similar to the move Favre pulled.

Surprised to see NE with the over considering the win total they were give was high already. WI, IA and MI were each given respectable win totals but not outrageous, to give them the under is a bold move is bound to get feedback.

This is only because his opponent only focused on defense because they thought they had the game won going in. No one who plays Izzo underestimates his team or his ability.

PJ Fleck has shown that his program works for developing young men that make an impact in playing football (NFL players every year and winning) and developing leaders (look at PJ's coaching tree). Iowa become Iowa because it gave kids on the fridge of greatness a program that could develop...

I could see a coach having an honest conversation saying "I am going to try to bring in a transfer or two to play your position and even possibly a recruit or two. I am not saying you will not play, but I want you to know if you stay you are going to have to compete for the starting job and...

This is HUGE!! I am so impressed by the way this 2026 is filling up and out.

Swap Nebraska and MN and that makes it closer -- or bump IA up to NE, MN to where IA is and NE to where MN is and the top half looks right. WI should be closer to UCLA than Rutgers - with that schedule they will be lucky to win 5 games and a good chance they won't look good doing that.

I had no idea how stuck with Fickell that Wisconsin is. If they let go of Fickell - they are on the hook for 80% of his contract. The $8 million buyout is if someone else comes along and/r...
