Coyle is a very real problem. IMO, with NIL, we need an AD that can market the program and bring in "investors" to raise the needed dollars. Coyle is exactly the opposite. The guy has the marketing charisma of a turnip. If you're a coach looking to move up to a new landing spot, without...

Here's my change as to how you select the 12: Teams in the P4 that get into their conference championship game are automatically in. The top two (or may one) ranked teams from other conferences that played in their championship game are in. Leaving two (or maybe three) spots for teams that did...

Texas/Dallas is a lot bigger TV market than Alabama/Tuscaloosa, but ESPN will always work to protect the SEC.

Does this mean that for the B1G, a scholarship is only guaranteed for one year vs all four years?

Is this a move to make cap space to sign Kirill to a new contract? Spurgeon's contract ends in 2026, so he's gone. Jiricek won't be paid near the $8M price tag that Spurgeon's collecting this year, it'll be closer to $1M.

The best site for signing day news IMO is https://www.thedailygopher.com/2024/12/3/24312818/minnesota-football-recruiting-early-signing-day-2024-storystream We're still waiting on Jackson Kollock to sign, but it's still early in the morning in CA.

FOX had this tune, from Durry who hails from Lakeville, playing as an outtake during this week's Ohio-Michigan game.

The one and only rule change I want is automated strike/ball calls at the plate. The home plate ump has way too much say in who wins games... ... okay, one more, but it's only for low-level minor league teams. The idea is to get catchers more time behind the plate where teams often don't have a...

Mariano Sori-Marin is coaching at the U, unpaid position, but still part of the coaching team.

Here's hoping he gets drafted. IMO he should. Having a quick release is a big deal in the NFL, as is of course being able to progress through reads to find the open pass. Also, there's not a lot of huge QB talent in this year's draft, so he has a few items going for him.

Negative recruiting - Here's a blurb from a 2022 article: One Gophers football commitment, Prior Lake defensive lineman Martin Owusu, received a scholarship offer from Wisconsin just before the early-signing period opened this week. The Badgers trying to flip a pledge late in the recruiting...

User Tip to Cope: Don't call the team that's beaten your team three of the past four times as being "mediocre". That leaves you referring to your team with the pronouns She and It... ... instead, focus on the upcoming bowl game in which your team will be participating - some nice warm...

Nice. You spent time looking up the details on all the Gopher national championships. Advice Tip: To better cope with your miserable team and its continued slide into mediocrity, don't spend time looking up how much your rivals have dominated over the years. For example, in baseball, the...

I want the Bacon too. They stole it, hid it, and now claim they can keep it. Bring on the legal battle, the bacon should be back in Minnesota.

Just do like us Gopher fans, and think about all those national championships you've won over the years.

I'm thinking Sumrall is a bit too early in his career for a move to NC. He's just been a HC for three years total, 2 at Troy and 1 now at Tulane. He still has 5 years on his Tulane contract - no idea about the size of a buyout (as it's a private school so they don't have to release that info)...

In other DIII "football" news, the defending nat'l champions St. Olaf lost their second-round soccer game in a shootout against Wisconsin Superior in a bit of a controversial finish. In overtime, the ref didn't call an obvious PK against Wisconsin, and it then ended up in the shootout with the...

Well, I do. Love the Army/Navy game, along with the history that they chose to represent with their uniform selection. The Army/Navy game is a game that is more than just football. Having said that, Go Navy, Beat Army !!!

Gopher uniforms just can't compete with what Army has got going...
