I feel the transfers have been a positive overall for MN although someone pointed out that this year may have been an exception to that.

We lost the running back to Texas but who was the other one?

Surprised there is no talk about signing day tomorrow. Are there any rumors of flipping a good player or one of ours being flipped? Way different than the weeks and weeks of chatting about the NFL draft.

I don't follow basketball but I recall them being competitive lately in that area. You would have thought that facility and upcoming new stadium would have really helped their football program? https://talksport.com/nfl/3394384/northwestern-ryan-field-new-stadium-cost-ncaa-record/

I actually hope your right and I'm wrong but I always liked him as a coach. Not sure the scandal was something he condoned or was really aware of ... but it was done on his watch and somebody had to pay. If there was proof that he covered up stuff I'm sure Mich. St. wouldn't have hired him.

If he had achieved at Minnesota what he did at Northwestern he would be a legend here! I think he is going to do great at Michigan St. as it is a more traditional football school than Northwestern.

He did more with less than any coach in the Big Ten.

I think this is a home run hire! https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/47169082/sources-michigan-state-hires-pat-fitzgerald-new-football-coach

I heard about that big pay day for the TT softball pitcher. Not in MN.

You are correct. You get hardly anything for baseball or softball. My daughter could have gotten $1500 a year at a state school for softball. I told her unless you really love it they are going to own you for most of the year for $1500. You're not going to college for softball. She decided...

Didn’t think about video games revenue. A kid from our high school was playing at North Dakota and he was excited that he was listed in the video game. What about the NCAA settlement… I thought all FB players got a piece of that?

Curious about the base pay college athletes will receive. Just the level where guys who make the roster. Wondering what is the least money somebody who would who is not get playing time will receive?

Someone on the Triton staff told me Penn State offered a lot more money. Also Penn State showed up in person more often than MN.

Petersohn just won the section high jump at 6'8''.

I read that he was arrogant in interviews. He and his dad told teams what they expected and the way they wanted things to be once they were on the team. Dad also made the comment that if a team drafts him that they don't like then they would hold out until the next draft.

When you have not been drafted at this point it is always better to sign as a free agent. Then you can pick the team you have the best chance of sticking with.

I don’t know his situation but back in the day my family had seven kids. Dad worked two jobs. Mom worked a job with long hours. They worked hard and we were still poor. Coming from that situation in life I would’ve chased the NIL money vs local loyalty. Then used it to help the family out.

Was at a Hall of Fame program at Triton the other day. Talked to Pierce's track coach. If I heard him correctly he runs a 49.3 400 meters. That would have been as a sophomore because Track season hasn't started yet. Not too shabby. I know football speed in measured in shorter runs. Saw...

That stuff really happened. I would go home to visit my parents and my grandparents. In next weeks paper there would be a paragraph in the local paper mentioning us having lunch with grandma and what we had to eat. The locals really enjoyed reading about that stuff.
