Without getting political, I feel Ben Johnson was hired for three reasons - I am not sure the order of them, but guessing he wasn't a hot candidate for any other Big Ten school. 1) He was from Minnesota 2) He was cheap 3) He is black Where Minnesota was at the time of the hiring I don't think...

They will not grant appeals for being the smallest school in a certain class - you have to have an extenuating circumstance.

There are a lot: Voshon Leonard, Bobby Jackson, John Thomas, Sam Jacobson, Quincy Lewis, Dusty Rychart, Andre Hollins, Lawrence Westbrook, Daniel Oturu, and Jordan Murphy are notables.

I am a little torn because I like Ben, the team generally played better as the year went on, and he seemed like a guy that is easy to cheer for. With that being said, not sure how anyone can be mad they fired him. It just didn't work out...

Look at post #244. He had an example of a 24 team conference where you would play every team in the conference home and away in a six year period and play everyone in your regional grouping every year. Part of what makes college football fun is playing your regional rivals - Wisconsin, Iowa...

I agree and disagree with you. To me, the tweet by itself is very racist. Once context was explained, not from him, it wasn't racist at all. Like I mentioned a couple of posts ago, a simple follow up of what song was playing. I would guess if you took a random poll more people would think '...

After reading all of the replies, here is my thoughts: 1) The original tweet, without context, is extremely racist. I would assume it is widely known that the term 'monkey' can be used as a racist term. Think of the movie Remember the Titans when Denzel gave the white coach a banana because the...

Not a good look by the old man. https://x.com/patrick_reusse/status/1898145240181080261?s=46

This would be pretty dang close to my dream scenario. We play the teams I really care about playing every year - Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska. Every six years I will get to see home games against the rest of those teams? As a season ticket holder, sign me up! People can say whatever they want...

I would be curious and I am not smart enough to figure it out on my own. The original post with the division/schedule pools said that every team would basically have a home and home with each team outside of their pool every six years. I don't feel like we play Michigan that many times right...

I don't disagree with you on the same number of conference games but I think that problem might work itself out. I think it is going to get to the point where the Big Ten and SEC are just going to get x-amount of playoff teams and the Big Ten and SEC will determine how they will select those...

Other factors can be waived for qualifying for Educational Benefits like Class Dues and Field Trips. Also, schools can receive more funding if certain percentages qualify. Like most things though, the government took a system that wasn't broken and broke it, but that is a discussion for another...

This means absolutely nothing but something you can take note of. 2021 playing 5A they went 9-2 and beat Owatonna 58-31 and 38-33. They also beat JM 53-6 2022 playing 5A they went 9-2 again and beat Owatonna 34-27 and 36-7 and beat JM 52-0 2023 playing 6A they went 4-6 2024 playing 6A they...

Yeah, it would be interesting. 3 of the 4 teams I thought of that are 'smaller' 6A schools are the Lakeville's and East Ridge. Lakeville obviously has North and South and East Ridge is part of South Washington ISD with Woodbury & Park. I believe Lakeville has two separate youth programs through...

Lakeville North and South are a couple of the better programs in 6A - South won the Prep Bowl in 2021 and was named 2020 Covid State Champions, North won the Prep Bowl in 2018. I would guess in most years either of those programs would win 5A. Both programs can compete with any of the schools...

What do you consider the bottom half of 6A? Enrollment? If that is the case you'll have teams like Lakeville North, Lakeville South, Farmington, and East Ridge playing 5A schools...

If they weren't our rival, I would really feel bad for Wisconsin. Instead, I will just smile and laugh. Miami OH - Win Middle Tennessee - Win At Alabama- Loss Maryland- Win At Michigan Loss Iowa - I would guess Loss Ohio State - Loss At Oregon - Loss Washington - I would guess win? At Indiana -...

You forgot Kill. I like your list... I would put Kill second I think. In my lifetime and following Gopher Football back to the early 90s... 1) Fleck 2) Kill 3) Mason 4) Brewster 5) Wacker Mason & Kill are interchangeable. Both walked into hard positions and made the program respectable.

I never thought of that but you are spot on.
