    Big Ten QB Power Rankings: Post-spring tiers for every B1G QB room (Very worrisome: Minnesota (Drake Lindsey))

    Really? Not the least bit over-the-top are ya? First off, it's just one season. If he blows it like AK did, well, last year showed what the recovery looks like. It didn't set us back to some difficult to overcome scenario. Secondly, do you have any better ideas? Recruit portal QBs almost...

    Big Ten QB Power Rankings: Post-spring tiers for every B1G QB room (Very worrisome: Minnesota (Drake Lindsey))

    I think this is the crux of it - they no longer do. 30 years ago we'd be relying on tidbits from Sid Hartman to get an idea of what's going on, etc. Now we fans can discuss with each other, share info, etc. and the players can post things directly and it gets relayed on message boards all...

    Big Ten QB Power Rankings: Post-spring tiers for every B1G QB room (Very worrisome: Minnesota (Drake Lindsey))

    I think the real reality is that unless you are a true fan of a school, it's damn near impossible to glean anything about the roster next year, regardless of how much casual perusing on the internet that you do. People on this board became aware of Lindsey after he committed in place of the...

    Isn't this the third article this week on this topic? Yeah, it's the offseason....

    Bielema Extended By Illinois - Will Be Around For Add’l 6 Years

    If your team is in that situation (where a bunch of transfers following a coach from a lover level are instant upgrades) then you're team is probably at such a bottom that anything will be an improvement.

    A 16-team College Football Playoff wouldn't be catastrophic, it would fix things

    Yeah, the initial playoff of 4 teams was supposed to "fix things"...until it didn't. Then everyone wanted more...to solve the same damn problem. And now it gets talked about again...sigh. I guess this is what happens when 10,000 times more people want to go into sports writing than there are...

    Haven’t been rated this high for awhile

    Plus he listed them in terms of years since high school, so the list can look funny if you're not aware that the best of the 4 (right now) is Lindsey, even though he appears after Max, who will probably never take a snap.

    Roman Voss

    I haven't seen Perich in any local ads, nor making any appearances. The Baldy's BBQ stuff is small potatoes, and on top of that, I'm sure the out-of-state kids got the same from the event.

    Apparently you can go home again - "Scott Frost reportedly receives 5-year, $22.1 million deal to return to UCF"

    True, but the counter to that is he now will have legit P4 recruits in his own backyard vs. trying to get anyone with a pulse to want to go to Lincoln Nebraska. I'd love to see him succeed there while Nebby wallows in 5 or 6 win seasons.

    CFN: Minnesota Football Preview 2025: Can PJ Fleck Take Gophers Higher? (It’s the 9th year of the Fleck era. Is there something more than this?)

    I'd disagree. When I see the games, I don't see Ferentz outcoaching Fleck. Instead I see either close, competitive games (like Mo going for 200+ but them getting that late INT, or the invalid fair catch signal, etc.) or beatdowns due to a huge talent gap on the lines (2020 for example)...

    CFN: Minnesota Football Preview 2025: Can PJ Fleck Take Gophers Higher? (It’s the 9th year of the Fleck era. Is there something more than this?)

    Pretty weak analysis if you ask me. The implication is that running more would have led to success, but anyone who watched the Michigan game knows that we wouldn't have done squat trying to run. Instead, we passed like a modern offense and almost won the damn thing! Several notches??? Did...

    Trump wants to change/limit NIL.

    I know you mean pronunciation for "contract" as in "legal contract" but if you take the other way to pronounce it, "contract" like the Twins almost did in 2002, it's almost ironic as I think that might happen. This whole thing is so messy fans might lose interest (for the first time in forever...

    5 biggest questions Gophers football must answer this summer

    If the other 2 aren't going to beat him out, is he implying that Kollack is higher on the depth chart than one would think? Otherwise, why would he have to earn it if Max and Dylan aren't gonna take it?

    5 biggest questions Gophers football must answer this summer

    Agree. Running was down cuz PJ finally saw what a modern passing attack could do. Look at how we threw the ball around and almost came back against MI. That was more fun, and gave us a better chance to win, than trying to run against them.

    Shedeur Sanders’ Slide in NFL Draft Cost Him $44 Million

    Probably not considering the significantly less money that 5th rounders get. He might not even get a million his rookie season.

    Shedeur Sanders’ Slide in NFL Draft Cost Him $44 Million

    What if both are independent of each other? For example, on half of his passes he could be throwing bubble screens and such behind/near the line of scrimmage, thus contributing to a high completion percentage and quicker release. But then his other 50% of his passes could be regular plays...

    Georgia WR Tyler Williams has committed to MN

    Good post. I was gonna add Marcus Major but forgot about Chris Williamson. Filiaga I forgot about too!

    Shedeur Sanders’ Slide in NFL Draft Cost Him $44 Million

    Agree with all this. I'd feel bad if I was Gabriel. Talk about an unnecessary problem to deal with, the Sanders fiasco. Flacco has made a ton and got his ring, so no worries about him. Picket got lucky being drafted in the first round and isn't gonna be around long, so no worries on him...

    Longest Active Droughts Without an NFL 1st Round Pick (Power 4) - Nebraska, 13 years!!

    Because it seems ironic to criticize Nebraska when we are just one player away from being way further down on the list than them, that's why. Why do you care?
