    Let's slow down on the Fire PJ Chatter

    I'm not privy to discussions, but I wonder if Fleck is operating with a very narrow field of candidates for his assistant coaching positions. He has his methods and particular culture, which I sense is more demanding on a coach than just Xs and Os and instruction. I get a palpable sense that...

    Hawaii just sent Minnesota to a bowl game in crazy fashion

    If invited, they did earn it due to APR, in the classroom. That's something. It isn't 1972 anymore. The landscape has changed. If there was a bowl game that pitted the top two academic performers, even if the records were 2-10 vs 3-9, then they earned it based on the criteria. If the Gophers...

    You never know. I've been following bowl games since the early 70s and nothing is certain.

    Athan finishes season ranked 14th in passer rating in B1G

    AK is going to struggle to progress until they have a more effective coaching situation around him in term of QB coach and OC. Its common to parts of a player's game improve a piece at a time through the season, but he never really seemed.... can't find the right words. The effort is there, and...

    1982 vs 2023. Which collapse was worse?

    Thanks for the sincere input, guys. Its not exactly the worst question to ask in that its a part of the past that can be learned from. Is it a mere question of adjustment or are there bigger issues? How this is handled will be interesting. Will history repeat itself or will it be learned from?

    1982 vs 2023. Which collapse was worse?

    Which collapse was worse? Yes, each was outstanding in its own way, but its an interesting comparison. In 1982, the Gophers were coming off a strong 6-5 season in a competitive Big Ten under Joe Salem. They blasted their first three opponents in such a way that they were in the Top 20 and...

    So what bowl game will the Gophers get?

    Guys, the nature of the bowl season has changed. Its not 1967 anymore, where even an 8-2 Big Ten co-champ Gopher team had to stay home. The rules have changed and that's what we play with. It gives players an extra few weeks of practice and game experience, and the fans a chance to see the team...
