    U of M Total Operating Revenue by Sport for 2024 (football is 75%, other 18 sports are 25%)

    Well -- sadly in my opinion -- it is sustainable ... if you just continue jacking up student fees and essentially keep forcing the students to pay for all the stuff ...

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    ^^ true, but "Super Bowl Era" is doing some serious lifting for some of those. Re-do the graph for 2000 and beyond (25 years!), and 2010 and beyond. :)

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    I made this up, I have no info: School and/or Church paid her off to make this go away? Not to keep the kid there, rather to get the story out of the news and make sure it never comes up again.

    U of M Total Operating Revenue by Sport for 2024 (football is 75%, other 18 sports are 25%)

    "Oh so you can COUNT!?!" "And YOU can count! On ME! Waiting for YOU! In the parking lot!"

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    The 25 season itself isn't being counted in any way. I'm saying that if 2024 had been the last season that the Vikings made a NFC champ appearance, and we were in the 2025 season you would say "the Vikings last made the NFC champ game 1 season ago". If it were 2023 instead and we were in the 25...

    ROMAN VOSS TO MINNESOTA!

    Would he not have a decent shot at playing right away this fall as a TE? Mainly just Geers? EDIT: I saw we did add a transfer who played at Purdue last year

    Gophers offer 5 from Fargo-Moorhead area for 2027

    The boys hockey team did OK! Yeah I know, football is more of a numbers game

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    I'm (obviously) not a lawyer, and I probably failed social studies class. Shouldn't this be a criminal case, not a civil one? Or can (almost?) every criminal case also be a civil one? Why have a duplicate set of laws?

    Indiana ducking P4 non-conference foes?

    Don't know if they'll get this done, but think it would make a ton of sense for both Big Ten and SEC to play nine conf games and then each school to commit to one more P5 (10 total), whether that's an in-state rivalry game (I think Wash and Oregon should be allowed to count their games against...

    Scoggins: Mark Coyle could frustrate some Gophers coaches with revenue-sharing plan

    As far as I know, any DI school can "opt in" to the settlement, meaning that they can share up to $20.5M. I am not aware of any restrictions about having to share it over a minimum number or sports, or for that matter any balancing required between genders. I would hope that schools (ie...

    Scoggins: Mark Coyle could frustrate some Gophers coaches with revenue-sharing plan

    OK, tried a little bit harder and found it. Lot of articles reporting that up to $2.5M of any new scholarships (above the old limits) counts against the cap. Also, previously schools were allowed to contribute almost $6k per year to student-athletes as so-called "Alston awards". For any...

    Scoggins: Mark Coyle could frustrate some Gophers coaches with revenue-sharing plan

    I have never read the bolded part anywhere else. I think Scoggins got this wrong or whomever in the U athletic department told him that wrong. Or they incorrectly think that. Everything I've read about the House settlement says that scholarships have nothing to do with the dollar cap for...

    Scoggins: Mark Coyle could frustrate some Gophers coaches with revenue-sharing plan

    The latest published U athletic dept financial report is for the 2023-24 school/fiscal year and found here: https://gophersports.com/documents/2025/1/14/Minnesota_FY24_NCAA_Online_Report_-_FINAL_01.14.25.pdf (Published on Jan 2025) Page 39 has the total by sport summary for revenues.

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    My way of counting it is: in the 2018 season you'd say it has been 1 season since 2019 you'd say 2 seasons since ... 2024 you'd say 7 seasons since 2025 you'd say 8 seasons since I'm saying we're in the 25 season now

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    Bold: that does make sense for anyone who really says they are fans of all four. I'm sure there are some. I definitely am not. If the North Stars had never been replaced and Xcel had never been built ... zero skin off my teeth. Who cares? And like I said before, I know some Wild fans who...

    ROMAN VOSS TO MINNESOTA!

    Signs what in December? And is that thing signed any form of a binding legal contract? I don't think he will change his mind. This was a phenomenal signing and I am thrilled he chose to stay home!! I'm merely curious and thought others reading this thread (even if they don't say so) might be...

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    I'm saying you can lessen it if you look at it reasonably (*my opinion, nothing more*): Twins: 33 seasons since last championship appearance and last conf championship appearance **independent** Vikings: 48 seasons since last champ appearance, 8 seasons since last conf champ appearance...
