    UT to require Longhorn Band to play the ‘Eyes of Texas’ but will create new band for those who oppose song

    Free, white, and 21. Is that phrase still used? It was when I was a man of 21, not all that long ago. Is the phrase racist? No. Does it imply superiority? Yes. So it is racism even though the words (like the song) aren't overtly racist. Subtle racism is the most insidious IMHO.

    Johnston: Has anyone heard from PJ Fleck? That guy never shuts up, yet I don’t recall the last time I heard a Fleckism

    It's not easy deciding whether to feed your girlfriend hay or corn kernels. Let's cut the guy some slack.

    Fleck said the Gophers have developed a program to address racism and he wants to be “the most empathetic head coach in America.”

    As I recall SON, you're a recovering alcoholic, right? If not, stop reading and I apologize. So part of the program is to state publicly that you're an alcoholic. Why is that? You know the answer SON. So when your friend who has gone on a diet and falls at his (or her) diet, who knows? Who...

    As the brand improves so will the level of retention. Should Fleck and Johnson have sustained success local athletes will see the U has a great destination. Even with that, some will get away.

    Jacob Schuster, incoming d-line recruit from Washington

    Never give up is attributed to Winston Churchill who used the slogan to rally the British people during World War II. In fact, he is credited with giving a speech at a boy's school that went something like this: "Never give up. Never, never, never, never, never give up" and then he sat down.

    Clemson all-ACC cornerback Derion Kendrick no longer with Tigers

    An astute question for which there is no definitive answer. Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffet, did they cheat? Lou Saban, Urban Myers, Dabo Swinney, did they cheat? When there is sustained success do we become skeptical of success? My belief is that there are those individuals...

    Meyer hires Doyle as Strength Coach

    Doyle spent one year at Utah, in 1998. Meyer didn’t arrive at Utah until 2003, five years later. The duo never otherwise worked together.

    Why Doesn't Rick Spielman Draft Golden Gophers?

    "I could be totally wrong on this but I highly doubt they give a ton of thought as to where a guy went to college in regards to whether they want to draft him or not" Au contraire, where a college football player plays has a significant influence on general managers. The numbers bear me out.

    Antoine Winfield Jr.'s cleats for the Super Bowl

    I suspect you'll see his cleats in the end zone multiple times. Perhaps not exactly how you might hope though.

    P.J. Fleck ‘committed’ to Gophers, sees outside interest as a ‘compliment’

    Heather rules the roost. PJ won't leave until she says okay. I've posted this before and someone doubted me, understand the power of putang. Money comes after that.

    I said last year's class was the best I'd ever seen at Minnesota and now I can say that this year's class, on paper, looks better. Rome wasn't built in a day but it lasted 700 years. I'd take that now for Gopher football.
