I'm with you. They mention, "what he's built at Minnesota" and they offer his career winning percentage at MN - so I'd say they are looking at more than just 2024. Also agree on the losses you mentioned. I might add 2019 Iowa, as if we win that we win the west and Fleck would look better, and...

I'd prefer if they were more like the original Bash Brothers, McGwire and Canseco.

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...

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...

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....

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

Or if he did well again and got the Purdue job....

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)...

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...

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...

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?

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.

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

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...

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