Already mentioned in post #32.

I'm not going to argue about that. I will add that the early knock on PJ was that his teams couldn't mount a comeback for many years. This might be the first year he's had multiple comeback wins. You could say this is growth.

Where did I say Fleck is a better coach than Cignetti? I think if Fleck had similar resources that Cignetti is working with, he'd have similar results. Just my opinion.

This is why I love The Drake. I know he got help from the Koi pick 6, but he's a leader who finds ways to put the team in a position to win close games.

Spoken like a true college football genius.

If we had Cignetti as the HC before the start of the year, the Gophers would be contending for a CFP spot this year. It's as simple as that. The schedule and NIL level are irrelevant. Hell, we would have crushed the Buckeyes with Cignetti coaching. I learned this from a couple of CFB geniuses...

Give him an extension now.

Got it! In your mind, Indiana being in a better NIL position has nothing to do with their success this year. We could just trade coaches and Minnesota would be contending for a CFP spot right now. You convinced me and I see the light. Enjoy the rest of the Gophers game.

Serious question, do you think Indiana's season last year was any different than PJ's 2019 season? They had a better record, but their best win was against a mediocre Michigan team. They didn't beat anyone that the 2019 Gophers wouldn't beat. They got the breaks last year. To Indiana's credit...

Money matters, yes.

Where did I say that? I'm pointing out that Cignetti has some built in advantages to attracting better talent than PJ does. I don't know enough about him to judge him personally.

It has been reported that Indiana's NIL funds are nearly double Minnesota's. Regardless if that's accurate or not, I don't know what the color the sky is your world if you think Minnesota is anywhere close to Indiana in money terms.

Fair. Still he's building a team through the portal and has had the benefit of the weakest schedule in the conference. NIL is also a couple notches higher than Minnesota also.

None of Indiana's transfers came from JMU last year and 9 of the 23 total came from G5 schools. The majority of transfers came from B1G, SEC and ACC schools including Mendoza, a Cal transfer.

Trust me, Minnesota's NC schedule was a gauntlet compared to Indiana.

If PJ had the advantage of a Mark Cuban to bankroll a bunch of talented transfers and scheduled the puffiest of creampuffs for the noncon, don't you think he would have similar results?

I'm curious to hear a hog fan's perspective on Arkansas passing on Drake Lindsey. How upset were a lot of fans?
