    RB Estrada commits to Gophers

    Well? How was the drink? Did you pour a special bourbon or something? :cool:

    RB Estrada commits to Gophers

    This is the dude I wanted BADLY and considered a MUST HAVE. Great outcome! Too bad I'm not drinking during the week. ...I'll have to wait until Friday night to pour myself a celebratory drink. Or ten.

    Gophers 2026 class remains in the top 20 nationally, will it stay there?

    I haven't seen Voss or Petersohn play, so I'll reserve comment on them. The dude I'd really want is Estrada. Don't know how many "stars" he has and I don't really care. He will be a star, and something the Gophers haven't had in a while, i.e., a back that is both a one-cut-and-go reliable...

    Summer Splash - Making recruiting waves

    Disagree. ...And I think Estrada would be a HUGE acquisition. He'd fit perfectly and is everything Mo and Darius were/are, but more explosive. (Not sure he's the pass receiver that Darius is, but not sure he's not, either.)

    Ohio State's Ryan Day says Big Ten deserves 4 AQ spots in CFP

    Nothing more to say on this point. You've nailed it.

    Me too. Brains matter. Gotta be a killer with an intellect.

    A random fan checking in here to say to all recruits: Welcome To The University of Minnesota and enjoy Summer Splash!

    I wish I could meet each of you -- because if you're at The Splash, you are something rare. Trust your hearts, guys. You heart knows where your future is.

    Is Darius Taylor clearly the best RB in the Big Ten?

    Tony, Thank you for being a PRODUCER and not only a CONSUMER. People like you make the world go 'round.

    RB Zeke Bates commits!

    Agree they were both great college backs. Mo was one of the greats, for sure. My point (not that anyone asked me to make one) was that if you run a 4.5+ 40 and want to really succeed (read: NFL), then you better bring something else. Such as being 6' 3" and 250. ...or having agility like...

    RB Zeke Bates commits!

    https://jmp.sh/s/U7vUnyRUnXHrFTsVFGjI Technically, yes. But could Mo do that? Be honest.

    RB Zeke Bates commits!

    I saw the same time from a Google search, i.e., 4.52 -- I think that's was his Pro Day time. I don't know if you noticed, but between his Junior and Senior year, Mo gained a half-step. He was noticeably faster. Not sure how he did it, but he did. So this means Zeke is beginning where Mo...

    RB Zeke Bates commits!

    Maroney ran a 4.48 at his Pro Day. Not incredibly fast, but fast enough. That's the range I'd love to see Zeke get to: fast enough that when combined with power, balance and efficient one-cut decision making, he's a real threat to be reckoned with.

    RB Zeke Bates commits!

    Just viewed his Junior year highlights on Hudl. Seems like a PJ-style RB. One cut and go. Never saw him take an arcing, retreating path to get to an edge. Just seek-your-crease and go. I think there's much he needs to work on, including his physical tools. But his innate sense of how to...
