Another tough one run loss, 3-2. Defense was clean with some good outfield play and both a pickoff and also Neels throwing out a stolen base attempt, and pitching was solid overall, but just not enough at the plate...14 strikeouts, zero walks. Their starter was legit, but we only got one run...

Gophers lose a back and forth finale by a run, 8-7, and drop the series.

36 runs, 29 hits, 12 walks, 6 hit batters, 5 errors......ooof.

4-2 loss in game 2. Sloppy game for Gophers in field, and not much at plate. Bases loaded in 8th with no outs and 2nd and 3rd with one out in 9th and did not score. PSA: Both Houston schedule and broadcast stated game 3 start time of 1pm, even though our schedule says finale is a 1:30pm start.

The launch angle had to be pretty high.

Gophers get a 14-3 win in Ty McDevitt's head coaching debut.

Have a night, Weber Neels...two run bomb to left makes it 8-0 Gophers.

The 2025 season is here, with the opener just hours away. Weather looks decent in Houston, with mid-50s tonight (small chance of rain) and Sunday afternoon (sunny, breezy), and forecasted thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon look like will be mostly through by game time tomorrow evening (78 degrees...

I stopped watching after the home run made it 6-0. Already by then I saw a overthrow to 3rd on a play where it didn't look like the runner had any chance or intention of advancing, and a runner thrown out on a base running error. 🤦‍♂️

I was curious on this also. In finding an article, they saw big increases in their ticket revenue (1.43 million to 3.26 million), thanks both to ticket price increases as well as the outdoor event at Kinnick Stadium. They also doubled their miscellaneous game day revenue (parking, concessions...

Big 10 preseason coaches poll: 1. Oregon 2. Nebraska 3. Indiana 4. UCLA 5. Michigan 6. USC

Coach McDevitt was on the Truck Stop podcast (earlier...just recently dropped) and also the Go Gopher podcast. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/truck-stop-baseball-minnesotas-ty-mcdevitt/id1615207941?i=1000690724501...

The number is probably less than what I think Coyle's number is, but I will say his number is 10. It would be a non-losing regular season in conference and improvement from last year, and show Ben can reassemble a team with significant departures and still increase the win total.

Not looking promising for actually watching them much the first two weeks. Arizona State shows ESPN+ coverage for their Thursday, Friday, and Sunday games in their tourney, but for some reason, not for Saturday (which is when Gophers play them). Looks like streaming on Florida Atlantic website...

The environment is less than electric in Iowa City this evening.

I agree on the reviews. I watched the end of the George Washington vs. George Mason game this past weekend, and there was an absurd number of reviews. I think they reviewed the clock on three consecutive stoppages at one point. And in another review (I think from a different game), it was so...

I recall an article from a couple years ago stating Nebraska volleyball was the only profitable women's program across all women's sports among the power conference schools. It wouldn't surprise me if that is still true today.

I know many are hopeful the revenue sharing dollars we can redistribute with the pending House settlement will help level the playing field and thus help Gopher basketball's efforts to attract and retain better players, but I am a bit more skeptical...mainly because I am not sure what NIL is...

I think those offering their opinion were specific to the university side. From my recollection (...so take it for what it's worth - maybe I will try to revisit the arguments), they seemed to think this money would be considered outside of the opportunity Title IX dictates. Also, as an aside...

In the smattering of articles and podcasts I read/listened to on the House settlement, NIL, etc... in trying to learn/understand it, this topic was always brought up, and there seemed to be a fair number legal experts quoted that thought this wouldn't hold up in court. So, based only on that, I...
