    Official 2021 Gophers Football Recruiting Updates Thread: Links, Tweets, Videos etc

    I just got the picture in my head of Regis dropping back and using his TE hands for the pick-6 versus Iowa. I hate Iowa.

    Souhan: Building program with transfers has merit for Gophers coach Richard Pitino

    Maybe Souhan has lightened up in recent years (I mostly stopped reading the Strib a while back), but I remember him having turned pretty much exclusively negative before quit reading. Maybe he's gong back to his earlier days! I used to really like him!

    I like where your head's at, but I'm not as sure about predicting the NCAA's decisions. They have too often seemed arbitrary. My gut says we should be OK on Liam, but I'm not so certain on Drew. Liam's got the family angle. Drew just wants to play in the B1G and attend a great business...

    As alchemy2u mentioned, Damion pointed toward Gameli Ahelegbe at South Dakota or Al Harris from D1 as they both have local ties and would boost local recruiting. Kendall gave his support to Damian. It might not be a terrible idea to have a guy who had to work for everything he achieved and...

    I like the Robinson comparison. That's probably the best case scenario.

    recruiting

    I recently rewatched the 1997 Gopher v. UCLA game to advance to the Final Four. It is striking how much more Clem used the bench than Pitino. I know the game has evolved some, Clem went 9+ deep, even in the tourney. That includes extended minutes for guys who were not nearly as good as the...

    Very concerning moving forward for our squad. We have a chance to be a pretty interesting team if everything falls into place. Peterson sitting would be a piece not falling into place (for this coming season). We still have other question marks as well: the status of Marcus and Liam being the...

    NCAA transfer committee is recommending to not allow the one time transfer rule at this time. Sounds like they may consider it in the future.

    I like how optimistic they are on the new guys...although it looks like we will have to wait a year on at least Peterson...thanks NCAA.

    "All Things" Curse

    While I think you're probably right, I'm hoping we see real progress from our coach and our team exceeds expectations. Nothing recruits like success. Either we have a great year we can build on moving forward or we get excited about the next coach. Life would be easier if Pitino could turn...

    Drew Peterson commits to Gophers!

    I definitely believe the physicality will be a challenge for him, but he also will have the benefit of not being the primary playmaker. As a role player for us (at least initially), his versatility could be a huge help. Having someone in the second unit who can make things happen will ease the...

    Transfer list possibilities, Spring 2020

    OK, Mr. Peterson. Let's do this!

    Danny Manning fired.

    Please click on a different thread if you’re not interested. It’s clear in the first post it’s not Gopher related. It’s pretty basic.

    Danny Manning fired.

    Did not see that coming!

    All Things Class of 2020 Recruiting Thread

    I'm just assuming someone is still fuming based on his own invented conspiratorial scenario. It's exhausting for me to hear from people who are so narrow-minded that they are incapable understanding that not every human thinks/analyzes everything the same way they do. To rage away on a message...

    Megan on whether Fleck will be here in 5 years

    Add to that fact that she's writing for a newspaper to an audience of the masses. She's not on a fan website doing deep dives into football theory. She needs to write to her audience, which in the Strib is largely casual fans.

    Aaaaaaaaaaand...ignore. I'm really starting to love the ignore button.

    4 star Sam Jackson recommits!

    I also like the "toos." Especially when they are phenomenal athletes with rocket arms. Put a chip on the shoulder of someone blessed with talent and watch him burn! I think I remember seeing that he's a really good student, too. Seems like way more plusses than minuses!

    4 star Sam Jackson recommits!

    I think the difference with Jackson is that he's already shown to be a productive receiver. He'll get a shot to prove it as a QB, and if it doesn't work out, we have a dynamic receiving talent for this staff to develop. Seems like a win-win to me!
