Can we get thoughts on the season from ol' jer please?

Our 237 day wait is over let's play some ball!

Not necessarily. Google is a lot bigger fish than Fox with a lot more resources and power. The balance of power has shifted from the days when it was the cable company vs. TV networks in their heyday. Now it's the biggest companies on Earth versus TV networks that are struggling with cord...

None. Usually an incoming freshman QB nobody's seen gets some benefit of the doubt and gets ranked around his team's overall ranking. Kind of like when the Gophers get a verbal from a guy the services haven't rated he usually gets a default 3* because the Gophers wanted him. Not here. The...

I went through the NCAA '26 ratings and only 4 schools have a QB1 rated lower than Drake Lindsey (72). Air Force (triple option), Rice, UL Monroe, and Western Michigan...and all of them have a 71. This includes all the G5 and several recently FCS schools. Even 0-12 Kent State's freshman QB...

There's about a 10-20% chance Max Brosmer, not JJ McCarthy, is the future long-term QB1 of the Vikings. That chance was about 2-3% at the start of camp. Barring a sudden major injury it would take a while for this to play out, similar to when Kirk Cousins eventually beat out a much higher...

There is a better chance of Wentz clearing waivers than Brosmer, judging by how Wentz was unsigned until today.

I'll take a look when I get another chance. His rating is absurdly low. Even Nevada has all 3 QBs rated a 75 or higher. And the Gophers shut out Nevada last season 27-0, as Nevada went 3-10 and lost all their conference games.

Looking very likely that the Vikings QB room will be JJ, Wentz, Brosmer Brosmer should have a great shot at the #2 gig next season, and might even get his name called ahead of Wentz if it's later in the year and the Vikings are out of contention.

They should have put QA in QA at EA I just downloaded NCAA '26 for the first time this morning and Lindsey is rated a 72, which makes him the worst QB1 on any team in the game that I can find, including FCS schools. Mid-majors have whole QB rooms rated higher than him. Shikenjanski is rated a 69.

the Gopher program does do a good job of preparing players for the NFL

Brosmer's gonna be the QB2

Brosmer with a couple nice balls on a brisk TD drive!

He's starting tonight! Huge leap from the undrafted QB4 to starting the 3rd preseason game over two vets. I think that means he's very likely to make the team and could be QB2 Might be tough for him since the Vikings aren't playing their starters and Tennessee is

It’s probably zero. NIL is a winner take most system where the majority of players get nothing. I bet the median P4 player gets next to nothing, and the median FBS player almost certainly makes $0 besides scholarship.

The new BYU QB is also a true freshman transfer (formerly of the Stanford Spring Team) https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/46015653/sources-qb-bachmeier-1st-byu-true-freshman-start-opener

30 carries a game up the middle

If you have a bookmaker who offers odds on him (mine does not), I think Koi at 300:1 odds for the Heisman is an intriguing bet. https://www.bettingpros.com/ncaaf/odds/player-futures/koi-perich/ Same odds as the wisconsin QB, the QB from Western Kentucky, some WR from Michigan State, etc. If...

For me, this is the most detailed color footage I have ever seen of the old Memorial Stadium, and of the Gophers before I began watching them on TV in the later '80s But the old weight room with the paneling (around the 4:30 mark) is the star of the show It looks like a couple of small low...
