  1. 2nd Degree Gopher

    Frank Bierman: Gopher TE

    Never attended any of his personal appearances, but had many opportunities to buy a beer from him. In later years, he carried around personalized trading cards, although I believe those were mostly saved for the ladies. Once at a Saints game an inebriated young fellow was haranguing Wally...

    2025-26 College Football Coach Fired/Hired Thread

    Nominally, at a job that he had held for over 45 years. Not sure how that's relevant to the discussion of the likelihood of Penn State seeking to hire Ferentz or Ferentz wanting the job. He's in his 70s, he's coached at Iowa for decades, can stay as long as he likes and they would be asking...

    2025-26 College Football Coach Fired/Hired Thread

    He'll be 71 before the first game next fall. Can't imagine either party would be interested in that.

    2026 schedule release

    Last year the release date was December 11, a few days after the conference championship game.

    Who Do You Want To Play In A Bowl?

    If his critics at Ole Miss are to be believed, Lane hasn't bothered to learn the players' names in years.

    He's been dead for several years, so guessing not.

    Fan culture (students)

    My kid, who is a life long Gopher fan but attends college elsewhere, went to the game on a student ticket Saturday. His group of about 20 high school friends was a mix of mostly U of M students, but also kids who were home for Thanksgiving break from whatever school they attend now. Many of...

    All Things Minnesota at Oregon Road Game Thread

    Really appreciate all of you insights in this thread, looking forward to getting on the plane and getting out to Oregon. Are both the Mo and PK Park accessible from inside the stadium perimeter? Put another way, are we able to visit those places after entering the stadium?

    LSU Madness

    That's really just two sides of the same coin. The pre-nup endeavors to divide the property--whatever you keep, she doesn't get and vice versa.

    LSU Madness

    Not trying to be cute, but the answer simply is because they can. When a big knocker like LSU is looking for a splashy hire, the pool of names that will satisfy the masses is really pretty small. Would Kelly have turned down the job without the "golden parachute" provision in the contract...

    The deal is near finalized for #UCLA football to play its home games in SoFi Stadium.

    And the Orange Bowl isn't in the Orange Bowl anymore. I do, however, think that the setting of the Rose Bowl in that stadium at that place on that day when a lot of the rest of the country is settling in for a few more months of winter is more important than any other game. The only other...

    Wrigley Field

    The TV contracts allow a six day window a couple of times a year. It looks like that is one of those weeks, so start times probably won’t be announced until next Sunday

    New Ticket Exchange: Eventshure Support DTA

    Not sure what your contract says, but some of these agreements do give the consumer some information to evaluate. Grey Duck's announcement gave a "percentage of revenue" number as to that would be donated. (I think it was something in the neighborhood of 20% for the beer, but I could be...

    New Ticket Exchange: Eventshure Support DTA

    Seems like a great idea, thanks for getting this started. I am not likely to be a source of tickets, but I will make a point of checking out Eventschure when I am looking for tickets. Are you willing to share a bit more information on what "portion of the proceeds" get shared with DTA?

    I want this for Minnesota football

    Sadly, it seems, not Yanni.

    Prep for Oregon

    That's our plan as well. Certainly interested in any suggestions or potential Gopher meet up locations, but we are planning to check out that part of town.
