    Badgers Luke Fickell doesn't accept one year extension.

    Good point. I don't think the problem at Wisconsin is Luke Fickell.

    With three-peat in hand, the Big Ten has shifted the conference bragging rights battle

    This timing roughly reflects Urban Meyer's arrival into the B1G... and his publicly calling out the Conference as a whole for its tepid ways... Causation? Correlation?

    1977 Michigan at Minnesota (Color game film with UMich radio broadcast)

    Great work in putting the video and audio together. At the 2:45 mark, Bobby Weber of the Gophers returned a Michigan punt 10 yards. Years later, Bobby's son, Adam, became a 4-year starting QB for the Gophers and the only 3-time Gopher football captain in its history. Pretty sweet Weber...

    Nolen Anderson commits to Gophers!!!

    Ryan Iverson? That’s a name out of the past. I can remember when Jesse ‘the Body’ Ventura stunned the world and was elected governor of Minnesota. On election night in 1998, while giving his acceptance speech, Jesse was sharing inside jokes with some young, unnamed guy in the room. and that...

    DL Xion Chapman commits to the Gophers

    Hey @Harrymannback77, Did you share your Koi Perich scouting report (above) with Oregon? Might plant seeds of doubt in their investment… :LOL:

    Reusse: If Fleck were a hockey coach producing same ratio of BT wins as he has in football, there would not be fan sites with declarations of Fleck

    It has been said that “the opposite of love is not hate…. The opposite of love is indifference” There seems to be far more indifference toward the Gopher men’s hockey program than hate. Wanting to get rid of a high profile coach might actually be a sign that there is still some life in the...

    SEC Bias: This is a reminder that LSU these last 5 years is the same as Minnesota, just with a lot more AP votes and more FCS wins.

    Yes… comparing LSU at one of its worst 5-year stretches - as they fired two head coaches and respective coaching staffs, while paying massive 8-figure buyouts to both Ed O and Brian K. - to the Gophers at one off their best 5-year stretches… is really interesting. As I mentioned earlier in...

    SEC Bias: This is a reminder that LSU these last 5 years is the same as Minnesota, just with a lot more AP votes and more FCS wins.

    🤯 Truth bomb above, fo sho… In this 21st century, Alabama has won 6 national championships… LSU has won 3… and Ohio State has won 3… No other team has won more than 2. Our Gophers have come as close to a national championship as the Gator Bowl. Additionally, during these past 5...

    I just met Jerry’s brother, Merrill, and Merrills’ wife, a few days ago. We had a very nice chat. Talked at length about Jerry. All Good people.

    Is Emmett Johnson biggest miss ever

    Remember, it was Bert Bielema who recruited Frank to Arkansas. Bert considered the Twin Cities as his ‘in-state’ recruiting, even after he left Madison for Fayetteville

    Is Emmett Johnson biggest miss ever

    He would have been interested, but he knew the Gopher’ offense was not suited to his skill set. Also, it would have been difficult to say no to Howard Schnellenberger and Jimmy Johnson

    Is Emmett Johnson biggest miss ever

    Back in the Lou Holtz era, the Gophers were more interested in the Dual Threat QB’s (Ricky Foggie), and less so in the pro-style QB’s (Steve Walsh)

    Will the Gophers win 20 games this year?

    Depends on how 'creative ' we want to be? PJ went 1-0 during the bye week. Might have to think out of the box ;)

    If the blue bloods left for a "super league", who would be hurt more, them or the also-rans like us?

    When Oregon State and Washington State were left behind to form the PAC 2, I’m not sure folks realize how little revenue they have been left with (try 90% lower media rights deals per school). If the blue bloods move on… the reminder will be stunned at the crumbs they will be left with. No way...
