From Shooter's PP column today. — Vikings' 6-foot-8, 350-pound offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie, a University of Miami alumnus, plans to work with 6-8, 350-pound Miami freshman offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson from St. Paul this offseason. "I have some ideas I learned through experience,"...

So, my wife and i were watching Friday Night Lights on Netflix last night. I know its not the greatest thing on TV, but its ok.... Anyways, Mike Leach makes a cameo early in season 4. He goes into this big speech to the main character coach about being a pirate...

I have been watching the board lately and reading everyone's opinion on who would be a bad hire. Then most cite several reasons why these candidates are bad and wouldnt fit here. I'd like to bring up the point that this coaching search is alot like a scratch and dent sale. We're not buying a...

I understand that you need to advertise to pay the bills here, but is there any way we can get that sprint ad on this site to be muted?

Reading Calhoun's wiki page (yes, not verified info). It says that he played at the Air Force Acadamy from 85-88 and was a graduate assistant/assistant coach from 89-94. Then he went to Ohio, Wake Forest, Denver Broncos, and Houston Texans prior to becoming HC of the Falcons in 07. My...

Before i even bring this up, I need to say that I would be happy to see any of the bigger names being thrown around (Leach, Harbaugh, Belotti, Frazier) simply because they represent something new for us and their resumes suggest that they'll do a better job than Brewster.... After watching the...

On a serious note: Thank you Tim Brewster. He came in with high aspirations, but it didnt work out. I liked the positivity and talk of something bigger than mid level bowls and mediocrity. It didnt work out for us or him, but I felt like we were getting his best efforts. I hope he lands...

Say what you want to about Brewster, but I really respect the fact that he's suspended anyone for any game on the roster for doing stupid stuff. Furthermore, he keeps the infraction in house and doesnt throw these guys under the bus. I said the same thing about Mason too. I do feel that we...

I've done this in years past, but I think its VERY necessary after this past week's debacle. Say something nice about the team, and complete the sentence. Negative replies not welcome. I was happy with... Duane Bennett. He has run hard and played well the past 2 weeks.

http://www.fathead.com/college/minnesota-golden-gophers/ Probably old news here, but Fathead has added Maroney and Barber in Gopher gear to their stable. There's always discount codes out there...

With the exception of the always Negative Mr. Reusse (my favorite columnist at the Strib who I never read, and I read pretty much everyone else), the Strib has had some good, positive stories on the Gopher football team lately. It seems that we love to bash them for not supporting the program...

Lifted from profootballtalk.com The Seahawks coach likewise heaped praise on former Minnesota Golden Gophers receiver Eric Decker. "Very, very good receiver," Carroll said, "and we have a guy [previously] on that [Minnesota] staff, Jedd Fisch, who coached him and we knew all about him and...

Pulled this link from Peter Kings Si column. http://http://www.gq.com/sports/profiles/201002/marvin-harrison It seems that Marvin Harrison wasnt the clean cut consumate pro that i thought he was.

Bowl time! Complete the sentence and be nice. I'll expand it this time. Say something positive about the program, team, or anything bowl related. I was happy with...the fact we don't have to visit Detroit for our bowl game.

A week or so ago when Reusee and Souhan were stirring the pot to get Brewster fired, i asked a question in the middle of the long string of posts. Who are our boosters? How much money do you have to donate to be considered a 'big' donor? Below is cut and pasted from my post to the thread...

There is a bunch of angst in Gopherland. Check the negative crap at the door and finish the sentence with positivity. I was happy with... 12 points surrendered on the road to a ranked team. Our defense has been solid this season. That hasnt been said about any Gopher defense in the last 3...

I know that this may be difficult. Yesterday was tough, but this is the positivity thread. Complete the sentence and say something positive about the program. If you want to be negative, post anywhere else on the board. I was happy with...a win. We are bowl eligible. Too may years have...

Say something nice about the program and finish the sentence. I was happy with... The 4th quarter effort. They didnt quit.

Weber played great against MSU. I am not an x's and o's guy, but i loved seeing him spread the ball around and getting everyone involved. Before he'd lock on to Decker, but he seemed to use checkdowns and made some nice throws. He's been getting his share of criticism on here lately, and i...

Complete the sentence using nothing but positives... I was happy with... Our recruiting. Picking up Huff looks to be big. I dont follow recruiting too closely, but looking at our list thus far has impressed me. Bringing in talent across the board excites me. Depth is so key against bigger...
