    Regis decommits. Anyone know why?

    I don’t follow this as close as many here. Did he gain a star in the last month? When he committed, the TwinCities.com headline was “Gophers get commitment from 3-star Texas defensive tackle Albert Regis”. When he decommited, it’s “Four-star Texas defensive tackle decommits from Gophers”.

    Favorite moment of the 19-20 season

    For a single moment, it has to be the pick against Penn State that sealed the win. I was trying to prepare for another Gopher "moral victory" game when the interception occurred. I turned to my 14 year old daughter who was at the game with me and screamed "C'mon. We're rushing the field!" The...

    Photo: Northrop Field ~1903

    It looks like this is from the Wisconsin game (final game of the season). Here is the same photo on the U's media site and you can zoom in enough to read the scoreboard. https://umedia.lib.umn.edu/item/p16022coll175:4519 Edit to add, it also looks like it was 1904. Don't be fooled by the 1904...

    Parts of sports movies that disappointed you

    The end of Tin Cup always bugged me. Am I really supposed to believe that Roy McAvoy would be remembered as anything more than an idiot for taking at 12 on the final hole? His story to that point is so amazing that his winning the US Open would instantly become one of the greatest stories in the...

    Tenure Rankings of all 130 FBS Coaches

    Exactly my thoughts. I feel like PJ still has the "new coach smell". Hmm, that didn't really come out right.

    Mark Dantonio retiring

    The CU football forums are tough to read. They were totally blindsided by the way Tucker handled this.

    Mark Dantonio retiring

    LOL, I just heard a talking head on ESPN mention PJ Fleck. Granted, he said he doesn't see that happening, but you could make a drinking game out of whenever PJ gets mentioned regarding a coaching vacancy.

    Jerry Kill to TCU

    I love Wikipedia. I hadn't heard that about Fuentes, so I Googled him and opened his Wikipedia page. Here is the first line:

    Jerry Kill to TCU

    I don't doubt that he has a reason for each move. I just feel like he's turning into the guy who is on his 5th divorce/6th wife because he just can't "find the right woman". Maybe it isn't the women.

    Jerry Kill to TCU

    This is bordering on bizarre, even for the nomadic lifestyle of a college football coach: 2015 - Leaves Minnesota mid-season for health reasons. 2016 - Kansas St. Assistant AD 2017 - Rutgers OC 2018 - Southern Illinois AD 2019 - VA Tech Assistant to the Head Coach 2020 - TCU Assistant to the...

    Power 5 AD in New York this week said a specific 8-team playoff model is circulating around the CFB

    If they go this route to pick the teams, I hope the first round games are played at the higher seeds home fields. Expecting a fan base to travel well to three playoff games is a tough ask. I would also like to see the first round games played in mid-December with the losers slotted into the...

    STrib: At 92, former Gopher Bud Grant still hits his mark (and has company)

    I go to a lot of the Eden Prairie home football games (partly for the football but also because I have two kids in the marching band). It always makes me smile when I see a 92 year old Bud Grant climbing the steps of the bleachers to assume his spot in the top row just below the press box to...

    Vegas nailed it last night

    Sorry if this has been pointed out already. But I saw the odds on last night's game at tip off as MINN -8.5 Over/Under=146. Since the 1/2 point means it can't perfectly evaluate out to an actual score, the closest scores to matching these odds would be 77-69 or 78-69. The game finished with the...
