    STrib: How transferring in Minnesota high school sports reached 'out of control' status (Mpls South HS basketball lost 8 kids to transfer)

    The issue is that most players can (and do) transfer without siting out a season. I could name 20 transfers off the top of my head that didn't meet the MSHL "criteria" and didn't have to sit out. The 5-6 that I know who were required to sit out a year (based on the same MSHL criteria) all...

    Eden Prairie Coach

    I don't think all of the black players quit. I think they had 5 at the start of the season. 5 minus the football player who enrolled at KSU, minus who is still playing = who is behind this lawsuit.

    STrib: How transferring in Minnesota high school sports reached 'out of control' status (Mpls South HS basketball lost 8 kids to transfer)

    The "Get the Suburbs" rule has worked well so far. 100's of kids have transferred without issue (I'm sure all of their families moved within district), but if one of those kids in the suburbs does it.............. The MSHL reading of the rule is laughable based on what's happened since its...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    There aren't any "can't miss" picks, especially a couple of third round draft picks. Elflein was really good for a year or two and then fell off a cliff. Personally, I wouldn't pass on a player at a position of need based on an arbitrary "rule" if I felt really strongly about his prospects...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    I get that argument, and it appears that most NFL teams agree. Number of first round interior lineman drafted the last five years: 2022 - 3 2021 - 1 2020 - 1 2019 - 2 (Bradbury) 2018 - 3 (2 really good ones, Quenton Nelson and Frank Ragnow) On a side note, here's a list of the last 9 Vikings...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    Looking back at past drafts can be painful. 2018 we took Mike Hughes. Lamar Jackson and Shaquille Leanord went soon after. 2019 we took Garrett Bradbury. Jeffrey Simmons, Montez Sweat and Deebo Samuel went soon after. Darrisaw and obviously JJ were good picks. Verdict is out on the...

    Lou Holtz at Minnesota - 1984-1985

    Summer of 1985 Our family was swimming at our neighbors pool when Holtz called and told our neighbor that he should buy season tickets and that he thinks they will have a really good team. He was actually making telemarking calls. After a quick consultation with my dad, they agreed to go in on...

    How about #9 Jackson

    Jackson has been tremendous this year. Several huge catches (sideline play at WI/TD today), don't recall many drops. Had games this year of : 6-110 6-51 5-88 5-86 4-73

    POST GAME THREAD: Sound off!!! Gophers beat Syracuse!

    The only thing I didn't like was the several sequences of having Lindenberg cover the slot WR. Those seemingly endless easy quick outs for 8 yards were maddening. Maybe it was genius though, as it was the same route as the pick 6.

    Damn Athan

    I just finished the game. Good to hear Athan was in a boot. I also saw him in a passing shot on the sideline smiling and laughing it up.

    Streveler!

    He took over tonight for former second overall pick Zach Wilson, and has looked much better.

    All Things 2022 Minnesota Vikings In-Season Thread

    You are correct. A look back at the draft isn't kind to the Vikings. A lot of good players at positions of need were available, and it looks like we got very little overall. S Kyle Hamilton C Tyler Lindebaum DT - Jordan Davis CB Kair Elam WR - Christian Watson

    NDSU & SDSU still alive in FCS playoffs

    I didn't mean that they would equal NDSU's past accomplishments, just that they could become the current perennial top team in the land.

    NDSU & SDSU still alive in FCS playoffs

    SDSU is going to be around for a while. They've invested a lot into their facilities/program and have a great coach. I can see them usurping NDSU, if they haven't already. Too bad they couldn't have beaten Iowa in that shootout early in the year.

    54 people ejected, 16 arrested during Badgers game, UW police say

    The most drunk/yet still somehow conscious person I've ever witnessed was a young Wisconsin fan at the Metrodome.........before an 11 a.m. kick. I felt really badly for him. He looked like wrestler Kerry Von Erich when he wrestled Rick Martell completely gorked. If not familiar, look it up on...

    Badger OL

    It took Joyner getting wrestled down with a MMA rear neck choke hold to finally get that call.
