It's also reassuring to see that those who have transferred out and found new homes are all at programs that I would consider a "step down". I would be more concerned about our outgoing transfers if it felt like our players were leaving for programs considered to be higher in the FBS pecking...

<sarcasm> Maybe they should make a rule that you cannot hike the ball until 5 seconds or less remains on the play clock. Just outlaw the hurry-up offense. That would work great for the Gophers. </sarcasm> Like MNVCGUY said, if you are going to run a high-tempo offense, you may just have to live...

I don't see any way to accurately determine, in real time, what is legitimate and what is play-acting. There are way too many variables and legitimate "temporary" injuries like cramping. And when you start punishing players for getting injured just because you think they may be faking or forcing...

The emails in his letter of termination were from as recent as last month.

October 8.

In my opinion, there are only a handful of teams with alumni rich and rabid enough to put together programs like Texas A&M. It's basically the same group of teams referred to as "helmet schools". It is making me reevaluate my definition of the perfect season for the Gophers. I used to believe...

This is an easy one for me. Penn State. I had my 14-year-old daughter with me at the game. As soon as the game sealing interception was made, I told her "We are rushing the field. It's going to be insane. Don't let go of me." I still get misty just thinking about it. That is a memory I will...

When I read that, I immediately thought of the five D's of dodgeball. Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge

Got him.

This article indicates that Glen got a $500,000 per year starting salary. http://m.kusports.com/news/1996/dec/12/gophers_lure_ku/?templates=mobile Or am I misreading something?

Back in my younger days, I ran a number of marathons. Before the races, I had a specific playlist that I would listen to that would get me fired up. Tusk was on that playlist. It still gets my juices flowing. But the undersized pep band version in the Lincoln Riley video was tough to watch and...

Maybe we can snag Anthony Montero from Eden Prairie. He was Mr. Football in 2017 but chose a full ride to Rice over a walk-on opportunity at Minnesota (smart decision). He's had a pretty good career at Rice and I noticed that he put his name in the transfer portal for his final year of...

I’m pretty sure my wife and I saw your family on the field. I turned to her and commented on how seeing the kids faces absolutely filled with joy is what it’s all about. Those memories will last a lifetime.

According to big 10 network’s game finder, it should be on the main Big Ten Network channel for me. Something is screwed up at BTN.

I don't want to jinx it, but I have had a really good experience with the ticket app this season. I have sold tickets and parking for two of my games with absolutely no issues. I've also never had any issues putting my tickets into my "wallet". I'm on an iPhone if that makes any difference. I...

Thanks. That's one of my pet peeves. It bugs me (probably more than it should) when people don't know what the middle initial on the time zone stands for.

That was an awesome video for so many reasons. I would love to have a coach here similar to the long-tenured greats at other schools that grew to be synonymous with their universities (Ferentz, Bowden, Alvarez, Snyder, etc.).

I’m watching some Tuesday night MACtion on ESPN2. They are scrolling this weekend’s football schedule for top 25 teams. It’s fun to see Minnesota in the scroll. :cool:

I actually wonder if this might be Kill’s swan song as a major college coaching staff member. He and Patterson are very close friends and that’s probably the only reason he was on the staff at TCU in the first place. I just hope he can make it through the season healthy. I’m sure his wife isn’t...

I was in Chicago last weekend visiting colleges with my daughter. Otherwise I would seriously consider a day trip. I was playing around on Priceline and put together a package leaving MSP at 7:40 am and returning at 10:50 pm. You would be in Chicago from 9:12 am to 9:15 pm. Just about perfect...
