He inherited a 3-9 team, and by my count went 29-29...or do non-conference wins not matter?

Jerry Kill deserves so much more credit than he gets around here. Some of that is his own doing, not really with the results on the field, but his mouth after leaving the program. I'm extremely happy that we ultimately landed PJ, but also grateful what Kill did here. Without the health concerns...

He'll have had to really work on his physical abilities to go in the first two days. The NFL is also transitioning to more of dual threat QB, and I don't think Tanner has that extra ability (especially at the NFL level) beyond throwing. I don't mean this to take anything away from him. He's the...

Gophers being represented well in the draft. PJ has done tremendous things for this program, but the turn around started with Kill/Claeys. This was their last recruiting class.

I saw someone in the Steven Ortiz thread mention that they have their eye on Sam Jackson (nice call!) after someone mentioned that Ortiz could maybe help recruit his 7v7 teammates Phil Riley and Junior Alexander.... Did Ortiz and Jackson play on the same 7v7 team?

Winfield Jr is such a stud, and we aren't used to that here. I don't know about first round, but he's gonna represent the U so well in the NFL.

oof.

me too. PJ is still coaching a team that fully isn't his. He has done a great job with some of the holdovers from the previous regime. It was great coaching for his team to come up with a role for a player like Seth that was too talented to ignore, but I'm guessing that role would never be on...

They'll get him on the field no doubt with the wildcat, just might be even more diminished this next year than it was last. He'll no doubt still have at least a small handful of game changing plays there. Just wondering if he'll step up elsewhere. The coaching staff was very creative in the role...

Seth stepped up big time, without really having a position two years ago as the Wild Cat QB. He has since scored 16 TDs (13 rushing, 3 passing), and become an impact player while having a relatively small role as a player. The Wild Cat seems to be a diminishing role for this offense. Seth went...

Tyler Johnson is one of best two or three receivers in school history. I'm not trying to knock Autman-Bell, just pointing out its unlikely he will reach Johnson's level.

Obviously not worried about Bateman. He'll be a stud, because he is a stud. My concern with the offense is WR2....Gophers have had a WR 1A and 1B for the last two seasons....No one on the receiving corps is going to fill Tyler Johnson's role, so it has to be made up in other ways. Autman-Bell is...

Youre thinking of Grand Forks.

I bartended at a bar in Bismarck about 5 years ago, and Carson's uncle was a regular there. Was told Carson would have been a Gopher had Brewster ever offered...or even offered a PWO. Said he just kept stringing Carson along, trying to keep him in his back pocket in case some other recruits fell...

Gonna be some stiff competition for him. Just read that Ed Orgeron started following him on twitter. The helmet schools are after him. Also he's from Kansas, and Kansas State's HC coached him for two years at NDSU. I don't think the signs point to the Gophers, but that would be great.

Christ, you had me worried there was a missing person in the world, who frequented this board.

And where did you hear that?

Fleck basically said the same thing about culture when he came to Minnesota, which is why Kill got so pissed.

Fuck Wisonsin football. I can't stand that team...but its hard to argue against their success, and this thread is completely ironic coming from a Gopher fan perspective. As a Gopher fan, I am jealous of the Badger's success as a football program. I think PJ is bringing us to that level though...

Penn State needed a complete reset after Sandusky, and they never did it.
