    This had to be coming. Have to have at least 4 QB’s on the roster if not 5. Hawaii’s Brendan Schager(sp?) looked interesting to me but he’s probably looking for a starting job. Fife has some experience and looks like a decent backup option to Brosmer while Lindsey marinates.

    FSU Want to leave ACC and come to B1G

    You know, that tomahawk chop song, which the band plays after every damn play, is the most annoying thing I’ve ever heard. It is the main reason why I hate Florida State’s ass. However, since I live 30 minutes north of Tallahassee, FSU getting in the Big10, if it ever happened, would be great...

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    Absolutely true, but until we can pay the dollars like the big boys, we have no choice but to continue to recruit and develop QB’s.

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    Until our NIL collective can pay what some of these other schools are paying, yes.

    Didn’t watch him, but I doubt he’s a pass catching option. Only had 3 receptions on the season. Running the ball he averaged 4.7 per rush. He had 354 yards on 75 carries with 2 td’s. Sounds like he could be a great short yardage option with that size. Goal line specialist???

    CFP predictions

    1. Washington 2. Michigan 3. Texas 4. Florida State I think that is what is should be. But if you want a playoff with the 4 best teams, then it should be 1. Washington 2. Michigan 3. Texas 4. Georgia

    Wake Forest is also much closer to home, if he wants to play his final year closer to family.

    Conference Championship Games Thread

    Watching the offenses in these two games tonight make me drool compared to what the Gophers do on offense. It’s maddening.

    How would you fix NIL/Portal if you ran the NCAA

    This won’t be popular with the room, but in regard to the portal, I say everyone can transfer multiple times if you so wish, but you still have to sit out one year each and every time you transfer. That will pretty much limit everyone to one move. The only exception to not having to sit out a...

    Alex Kaliakmanis: Trying very hard not to comment on a program that our family decided to cut ties with.

    Good post which sums up not only what I’m thinking, but probably the reality of the situation. Athan has started what, 17-18 games now? He just didn’t improve. Part of that could be the coaches who stifle his ability to grow and learn with the way they (PJ) wants the offense run. But Athan has...

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    I want to say that I heard Burns say on a recent podcast that the top of what the Gophers might could offer would be in the $200-$300K area?? Did I dream that or did anyone else hear him say this on the last podcast or two???

    Drew Viotto enters transfer portal.

    I would agree wholeheartedly. Not saying I would do so. Just rampant speculation on my part.

    Who is to blame for the epic fail in QB evaluations?

    You are probably correct, but the performance of those QB’s aren’t exactly ringing endorsements, injuries aside that some had.

    Drew Viotto enters transfer portal.

    I’ve wondered this as well. I think I’ve heard or seen where Houston Nutt said he was the best, or one of the best, high school QB’s he’s ever seen. PJ might have decided to hand him the keys to ensure he doesn’t decommit????

    Brian Murphy: P.J. Fleck's tone-deafness is ear-splitting

    I’ll bet if you ask them, they all probably understand that the defense isn’t good and playing that many freshmen is why. Chip has said as much. But I think what has them, and others like myself frankly, so rankled is the offense and Fleck’s ultra conservatism. The end of the first half Saturday...

    Who has been better bringing in Booster $ ?

    Jerry Kill’s record with Minnesota 29-29 (14-21) Best record was 8-5 and never won a bowl game PJ Fleck with Minnesota 49-34 (29-32) Best record 11-2 and ended season ranked in the top 10. If you want to complain about PJ, and lord knows I do sometimes, then that’s fine. But comparing anything...

    And two programs that for different reasons, have questions/concerns about their QB play.

    2023-2024 College Football Coaches Hired/Fired Thread

    Smith to MSU surprises me a little. I see this as a lateral move at best. Oregon State is his Alma mater and he’s built that program into something good. Yes, the PAC-12 is going away and there is some uncertainty, but he could have made this move a year from now too because everyone knows he...
