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

    Coach about to be fired? Reading some MSU fan comments they are peeved Smith chased out Sam Leavitt in favor of his boy Chiles. Leavitt went on to a very good season at ASU last year (not as great this year).

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

    Burns mentioned MSU has a poor run defense so maybe we’ll see some second level magic from Ijeboi and Ford.

    Matt Rhule's new buyout is $71MM! Dude is 0-18 vs ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska

    I received this interesting and somewhat inaccurate answer from ChatGPT on my query just now of what Rhule’s guaranteed salary will total if fired in Dec 2025. Keep in mind his new contract took effect Oct 30, 2025. Diversify from S&P500. If Matt Rhule were fired in December 2025 by...

    Big 10 Pay-to-View only?

    Using totally made up numbers for someone that *isn’t* interested in sports conservatively investing $20/month with an annual 10% increase in contributions - rather than paying for increasingly bidded up sports media rights costs demanded by Disney/Fox/Comcast/Paramount for NFL plus everyone...

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    The On3 valuations are totally made up fan fiction projections. Click on the “about valuations” link. They know as much as you or I which is nothing. Using a proprietary algorithm, the On3 NIL Valuation establishes a baseline value that helps athletes, schools, and brands negotiate roster...

    Big 10 Pay-to-View only?

    Youtube TV has taken Bob’s channels off the air pending ransom negotiations. This will not impact the Gophers or much of the Big Ten this week but the end result will certainly show up in YTTV subscription fees very soon.

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    Ok, give me a number and source Yes, it’s probably way up but to what? And if so why was their transfer class rated in the 20s? That suggests on balance the big boys didn’t want the same players as much, or the raters are way off. Both could be true.

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    I don’t know. Probably not in 2025. 2024? Maybe. As mentioned the only people privy to the collective or any relevant NIL numbers are certain people in the collective-sphere, big money boosters operating independently, and purportedly at the schools and NCAA but last I saw the clearinghouse...

    Foolish Jerry will do it for 2.5 no guarantee. Connections at all the JCs.

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    So: Indiana could have saved Tom Allen’s 15.5M guaranteed salary payout? This place is bonkers sometimes.

    Howard Sinker: You want another raise, P.J. Fleck? Do better in 2026.

    Based on what? Total BS. All of it. I ****ing hate the NIL talk. Nobody knows nothing and everyone is playing some kind of angle. Partly why I’d prefer they just transition to a full CBA pro model so everyone knows what’s what rather than this stupid (and likely illegal) capitated...

    Scoggins/Kill Article

    Neither coach delivered a Rose Bowl or Big Ten title, but I still like them both for different reasons. Neither are perfect people or the total coaching package we hoped for. Who among us is perfect. Without the stretches of mediocrity, suffering, low points, eye-scarring displays like last...

    What roster money Indiana had the 25th ranked transfer class. Three 4 stars and 18 three stars. MN was 29.

    Reusse: Is P.J. Fleck the answer to lift the Gophers out of mediocrity?

    Just be glad they are “not for profit” Unless the U thinks private capital involvement will somehow improve future revenues beyond what the school and conference can organically produce on their own any dilution of MN’s share of the pot will only be a drag. Let’s see their cards and what...

    Reusse: Is P.J. Fleck the answer to lift the Gophers out of mediocrity?

    I’m trying to think of a FBS or pro comp for PJFs reign of niceness Narduzzi?

    All about Max Brosmer Making the Cut

    IMO Brosmer wouldn’t look any worse than those two. Maybe better, besides JJ’s mobility or former mobility. Put him in, coach.

    Post Game Thread: Hawkeyes Humiliate Gophers

    Not sure I’ve ever seen a worse 30 minutes; also not sure we should count the second half as everyone had checked out at that point. Confusion on defense, horrible punting, horrible coverage, Lindsey 3 ints and other bad decisions, slow receivers, wierd calls at times, 4th down ineptitude...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA, FLOYD OF ROSEDALE, IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    He is no Winfield Jr that’s for sure. He laid down on the QB TD run. Not sure what’s going on but maybe he’s just not really wanting to be there.
