    Bally's Sports North Subscriptions -- $23/month ???

    Most TV providers charge 50 cents to a dollar per channel. I get there should be a premium if you pick and choose but $23 for one channel is way too high, especially considering there's rarely anything worth watching on from about midnight to 6pm. They might think consumers are choosing between...

    Congressional bill introduced would allow college athletes to form unions, become employees

    Even if this passed I doubt any conferences would unionize. The majority of student athletes play sports other than football, hockey, and basketball and are already getting a good deal as it is. The things football, hockey, and basketball players want would mean the end of most of the other...

    Opener on Fox

    Not that they're hard to get on their own but I've never seen state fair tickets bundled with Gopher tickets. The closest thing to an official tailgate is the thing a McNamara and "tailgate" is a big stretch. There are sometimes a couple food trucks on Oak St but it's usually underwhelming. The...

    Opener on Fox

    I'd like to see them try to make it into an all day event. Make a special ticket package that gives you parking, access to the state fair during the day, a voucher for an official tailgate or food trucks they bring in, a pregame event with the band and spirit squad, and the game. The U should go...

    Equipment Sale Tips?

    Yes, it's been every other year but they last did it in 2018 so they should have 3 years of stuff. That sounds about right, in 2018 I got there 20 minutes early and was probably 150-200th in line. They had a handful of football jerseys but the good sticks and nicer jerseys were gone and the...

    Gophers defensive coordinator Joe Rossi agrees to one-year extension with a raise

    Must have been written by a Badgers fan. Even if the missed games count as losses (which they shouldn't) they're still 1 short. This is a Big Ten-focused website and they can't figure out that the only way a Big Ten team could have played 10 games last year is if they made a bowl game?

    Equipment Sale Tips?

    They did have jerseys last time, I want to say they were $100 for football and $200 for hockey. They also had hockey sticks for about half of what they retailed for but they went really quick. Not too much in terms of souvenirs, it seemed like the vast majority of it was clothes that Nike sent...

    Up to 10,000 fans may attend Gophers Spring Game on May 1

    Disappointing that the state will only allow 10k fans. That's even less than they're allowing in California for baseball games. I wonder how the wait list will work. I'd have to imagine quite a few people who got tickets won't end up going and just reserved them while they had the chance and...

    Collin Sexton Reveals How He Almost Cost Richard Pitino His Job After Iconic 3v5 NCAA Basketball Game Against Minnesota

    Even if the Gophers lost, Pitino's job wouldn't have been at risk. The Gophers were a top 15 team, they were playing a top 25 team, and 5 on 3 isn't a situation that basketball coaches ever prepare for. It would have been embarrassing but the odds of Pitino getting fired would have been 0%.

    Gopher Firsts: What position of first 5 star commit

    Specialists are usually either not rated or rated low by the major recruiting sites and then others specific to specialists give them ratings on a different scale. I'm not sure if a specialist has ever been given 5 stars by 247 or similar sites before but the Gophers have had 5 star kickers...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MARYLAND VALENTINES DAY IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Should be winning inside with the height difference but Robbins has done nothing on offense and has 2 fouls.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT RUTGERS IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    That looked like Pitino's fault much more than Carr's. There was no plan other than give the ball to Carr and hope he scored.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PURDUE IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Horrible call there. I don't even see how the ref could have thought it would be a foul.

    ***Maryland @ MN - Saturday 1/23. Terp Time - OFFICIAL THREAD***

    They're 4th in the conference in free throw shooting. The shooting is good, the shots they are taking are bad.

    ***Maryland @ MN - Saturday 1/23. Terp Time - OFFICIAL THREAD***

    Even ignoring the turnovers, Maryland's offense looks so much better. They're moving the ball around, getting the defense out of position, and getting good shots. The Gophers look happy with a couple of passes and a low percentage shot.

    ***OFFICIAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Too bad they aren't allowing fans. This would be a really fun game to be at.

    ***OFFICIAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I don't think they'll stop shooting 3 pointers though.

    ***OFFICIAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The defense and rebounding have been great but the shooting needs to get better. I don't think they're going to win if they shoot 35% again in the second half.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Which is why Pitino should sit Carr more and see if it continues over a longer period of time. Even if it doesn't, hopefully Pitino making it clear that Carr isn't guaranteed minutes would make him a better team player and get rid of some of the bad shots.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I'd like to see Carr start on the bench next game. 3 horrible shooting games in a row, shooting too much, and not getting many assists. It wasn't for long but the offense looked so much better with him on the bench.
