Beautiful campus, cool town, good school. Good luck to him

They also have a lot smaller population. Even with the other sports options here, with the much larger population in MN they should still be able to easily fill the much smaller Huntington Bank stadium and they still struggle to sell it out. MN sports fans are simply fair weather fans.

It isn’t like college football fans in larger cities are intellectual elites that are routinely trying to decide between attending the symphony and a college sporting event. Most are middle class beer drinking guys with the same interests as those in smaller college towns.

Schools that have good attendance at spring games and regular games for use it as a recruiting adrvantage and it gets recruits attention. Gophers don’t have fan support so clearly they aren’t going to showcase to recruits an empty stadium. PJ might be able to recruit better and get over the...

Expecting him to make it atleast once in 40 Plus years isn’t unfair. He is an average coach and always has been, nothing special. He also only has made one super regional in that time.
