    Week 1 Other Games Thread

    There's something about the color and lighting at Arrowhead that's super harsh. These two teams in heavy red exacerbates it. It's hard to watch visually, bad FB notwithstanding.

    Post Game Thread: Gophers 1-0 After 23-10 Win Over Buffalo

    Win is a win. Can we get back to the NW laesuit settlement?

    Northwestern’s motion to dismiss the wrongful termination lawsuit brought by former coach Pat Fitzgerald was denied today, Fitz seeking $130MM.

    It won't behind public now but depending on the status of litigation and discovery, it could have appeared in a court file. My point was this: If NW fired him for cause (no buyout), it's not a simple as NW later deciding it made a bad decision and deciding it was firing him without cause in...

    Northwestern’s motion to dismiss the wrongful termination lawsuit brought by former coach Pat Fitzgerald was denied today, Fitz seeking $130MM.

    Has anyone seen the actual contract? A lazy Google search turned up nothing for me. The devil in all of this would be in those details. Did the contract authorize NW to fire Fitz for any reason or no reason at all provided he was paid the specified buyout? But didn't NW fire him for cause...

    Fitz likewise would have had a similar bill to pay his lawyers, the only certain winners in all of this. If the parties agreed on a settlement consisting of the full buyout plus the agreed upon released statements that were presented, each lost monetarily.

    All about Max Brosmer Making the Cut

    QB is a position where talented but not certain day one or two draft guys with eligibility remaining, especially G6/FCS guys, see a lot more upside to taking the route Brosmer or a guy like Mark Gronowski (South Dakota State and now at Iowa) took. A seven figure pay day and potentially improve...

    All about Max Brosmer Making the Cut

    I would think there would a reverse scenario. Max isn't going to the PS. He's the backup for an in game injury. Wentz will be PS until there's a need to bring him to the active roster.

    It's not out of the realm of possibility that Wentz hits the practice squad.

    Northwestern’s motion to dismiss the wrongful termination lawsuit brought by former coach Pat Fitzgerald was denied today, Fitz seeking $130MM.

    In April - a routine litigation procedure that except in the most frivilous cases, is routinely denied. It didn't resolve the case.

    Northwestern’s motion to dismiss the wrongful termination lawsuit brought by former coach Pat Fitzgerald was denied today, Fitz seeking $130MM.

    Right. The statement that Fitz released was no doubt agreed to in negotiation. Fitz wanted to say loud and clear and unchallenged that he had no part or knowledge of the hazing. NW wanted an acknowledgment that hazing did in fact occur, even if Fitz is allowed to say it didn't occur, while not...

    QB Transfers

    I think when it comes to college QBs, that really is how it works. Chances are very good that no matter the outcome at UTEP in 2025, he'll be on the move again.

    Gophers offer 5 from Fargo-Moorhead area for 2027

    The city itself isn't very large, but the district is fairly expansive and buts up to and includes parts of very rapidly growing West Fargo and Horace, and outlying, fast growing populated and affluent areas of Fargo and West Fargo. A similar scenario exists (less so these days) in...

    QB Transfers

    Lincoln Kienholz has been discussed on this forum a fair bit. Here's a 4* guy entering year three and up until now, hasn't sniffed the starting spot at tOSU yet he's still on campus. He and Sayin was supposedly neck and neck all camp before Day named Sayin the starter going into the big game...

    B1G Commissioner Floats Expanded Playoff Idea to 28 Teams!

    I think the bowl "system" is proof that people will turn on the TV just to have FB on. But I think that until CFB ensures: 1. A level playing field (NIL cap, talent distribution); and 2. Regional representation; it will fail to maximize its potential to attract fans and dollars. While...
