    2026 Recruiting

    Dothan has a bit of a tweener game. SF size, not a shooter, 6-6 215 very good athlete. He was rated higher when he was younger, he didn’t get taller or get the wing skills needed for sf.

    How do the Golden Gophers match up with the Hawkeyes?

    Iowa has better off and defensive lines almost every year. We sometimes have a better QB and wr’s.

    Nolen Anderson commits to Gophers!!!

    Seems to be a similar player to transfer Cade Tyson, a 6-7 200 SF, and Bobby Durkin, 6-7 220. Shooting is a definite strength of all 3. Great to get a Wayzata guy as they are a top program that produces some talent. Also great that his game has really taken off this summer that he comited now.

    Offense 79th, Defense 9th

    Speaking of last year's record: Very good wins: USC, at UCLA, Maryland, at Illinois, at Wisconsin. Maybe V tech keeping bowl streak alive. Near misses: N. Carolina, Michigan, and Penn St. Bad losses: Rutgers and Iowa. Iowa by the way we lost. I'm getting pumped for the season to start!

    Offense 79th, Defense 9th

    Your right, I actually checked the box scores and for the last year the defense has held very well. Maybe '23 had some games where the above was true like Wisconsin. College game has changed even PJ will finally stay aggressive with a lead. The days of teams getting a 10 pt lead and milking...

    2026 Recruiting

    Freitag seemed the better athlete and maybe a higher ceiling, Asuma seemed like he had the better intangibles: coachable, loves to pass, plays defense. Guards don't go to Wisconsin very often and see the floor. I am happy with Asuma as well, even if Freitag becomes and all conf player at Buffalo.

    2026 Recruiting

    I find the 247 composite ranking a better average of major recruiting services. 247 has him rated way higher than anywhere else. '26 kreager is a late bloomer, needs to put on weight and a mid major might fit him for early playing time. Dothan Ijadimbola, Nolan Anderson, and Jayden Morre...

    Offense 79th, Defense 9th

    Our defense was quite good, but part of the reason it ranks as high as it has is that the better teams only need to score 20+ pts per game to beat us. If we were in more shootouts it would rank lower. Teams get conservative once a win is in hand. If Iowa starts scoring more with that S Dakota...

    All Things Class of 2026 Minnesota Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread

    I hope so! I haven't seen anyone his size and skill level not rated by 247 and not without major offers. Built like Humphries, but skilled like Garcia. At lease in the few online games I have watched. One was against Wayzata.

    I would have offered Micah Curtis, 6-8 230 physical speciman with wing skills, versus Nolan, he has a much higher ceiling.

    Surprising Big Ten Offense Has Elite Running Back Room

    Phil Steele has Mn with the 11th best offensive line in the big ten. Starters being: tackles Ray and Roy, guards Johnson and Marshall, center Beers. I guess I should have said none of the transfers project as 2nd round picks, having to replace a great tackle, on a team where the oline was...

    Surprising Big Ten Offense Has Elite Running Back Room

    I agree that running the ball was a priority, and very affective from 2017 to 2022. 182 rush yards per game in 2017, to a high of 207 in 2022. 2023 we dropped to 157. Last year we only averaged 115! We lost by far our best offensive lineman in 2nd round tackle Ersery. The transfers are not...

    Phil Steele releases preseason poll, ranking all college football teams, 1 to 136

    You are right on the easy schedule, Ohio st at home, at Indiana, 3rd hardest game is hosting USC. No Oregon, Penn, st., Michigan, etc. 4th hardest, might be at Washington. Draftkings has their wins at only 7.5, it's -160, because that number is super low! I just made another bet. lol

    Phil Steele releases preseason poll, ranking all college football teams, 1 to 136

    I have taken the under on Nebraska's win total for about 5 years now, and I will take it again! Word from outside sources on Michigan and Qb Underwood, most talented Fr QB in years, returns 14 starters, another very good defense. Illinois, 19 returning starters, won 10 last year. Great...

    the internet is once again underwhelmed with the prospect of the upcoming Gopher football season.

    Offensive line, under PJ has been a strength, until last year. QB Brosmer had a great great season, once you consider the subpar Oline play. We lost a big time tackle, and our transfers could be ok. No one, outside of Gopher fans, think the line will be a strength, throw in a redshirt...

    the internet is once again underwhelmed with the prospect of the upcoming Gopher football season.

    My wife is from Iowa and is a fan. They have a huge following and get better bowls then they deserve on occassion, going 1-3 in their last 4. Seeing how they and us are close in big ten finishing in the 2020's, the downside of having a great following is playing much better competition and...
