Darrell Thompson -MN grown, outstanding as a player, and Mr Gopher since. Imagine if he hadn’t torn up his legs on terrible Metrodome turf.

Grit. Could use some grit. Can be close and they can’t grind it out. And better goalie this year. How about Todd Richards.

Hate OSU, but the Horseshoe is the most imposing stadium I have been to. As big as the Big House and the Rose Bowl are, they feel genteel compared to the Horseshoe. And after suffering through the Metrodome, Gopher fans deserved a place as nice as the Bank.

Ohh! Congestion pricing - or maybe a a fast-piss lane. There are times I might pay $5 for no wait.

Before you coach them, you have to recruit them. I would think Danny’s connection to the program long term makes him a more honest broker. Not sure that will land the right high schoolers and transfers though.

Do the math again with no state income tax.

Hmm. Coordinators work under Fleck, do a nice job, and then go make more money elsewhere. Maybe if I am an ambitious young coach, I might think a spell with Fleck is a good move.

Ummm. It was a bit nipply that night. I’m not sure if they expect any local Charlotteans to buy tickets, but I would guess they had near zero walk up crowd. Pour some mayo on me - can’t get that out of my head

2024 beat Rutgers, make a field goal against NC 2023 don’t screw up Northworstern, Illinois 2022 show up against Purdue 2021 earn a W with either Illinois or Iowa 2019 Beat Iowa and the trajectory would have changed dramatically Win 7 of those above and Gophers would be around Michigan and...

Came here to make sure the ‘hole recognized Kerry Brown was awesome. Cool to see so many already recognized that. The tackle preventing a long TD in the 4th quarter was the difference in almost screwing up the game vs mayo dump on chief marketing officer.

Go back in time, assume just bowl games, no playoff sh*t. Ohio State stakes claim to #1 in polls after Rose Bowl. Notre Dame could stake a claim if they win the Sugar Bowl handily. No more games needed. Okay if there is controversy at the end. And no risk of a 3 loss team pretending to be...

Exactly, regular season doesn’t mean much more than make money and - now - make more money by creating betting opportunities. Then Postseason is about - oh - making more money.

Never been a three loss national champion. If they keep expanding the playoff there will be a day a three loss team makes a run and maybe wins it. Then the game will have a crappy crowned champion and not a season long excellence team. Won’t that be a proud moment for the game? The idea a...

Mediocre

I am still a little surprised that Lindenberg was 1st team all big10. Clearly very important cog on the Gopher defense but always thought there was one more level we thought we would see from him.

2024: 12th in conference 2023: 8th in conference 2022: 13th in conference 2021: 13th in conference I call that a below average career.

Seldom seemed even average. Gophers’ lost Iowa games may have been because of the difference in punters. Need 40 yards to pin them at the 5, Crawford would get you 35 yards. Need 55 yards to flip the field, Crawford would get you 35 yards. Only long punts were lucky rolls.

Michigan’s basically used two running backs this season and both are seniors. Why does a ‘4 star’ leave now? Michigan has hundreds of carries up for grabs.

How about a pledge program based on results? I donate $XX to Dinkytown Athletics if the Gophers win 10 games, maybe $XX for each trophy won, then $XXX for Big10 title and $xxxx for National Championship. Deliver results, get paid. Go to the Rate Bowl, here is a set of steak knives.

Is Duke’s Mayo a good lubricant? Asking for a friend.
