That was back before Hetherman and rest of the world realized that Cig knew more about football than any person in the history in humanity. It was just a long play that he had been mired down in DII all those years and only very recently did someone take a chance on him. If only he had stuck...

Are you honestly questioning why a head football coach should use 30sec of his public platform to express a small bit gratitude to the biggest recruit in some time for selecting the Gophers in the first place? Gratitude achieves nothing? You're not even being reasonable.

NFL didn't want an AFC East retread for the champ game, if they could do anything about it. (They could)

It's really not that incredible, with how trash college football is now. You can just buy a Heisman winner and thus buy yourself a natty. I will declare that championships won prior to collective bargaining and a hard spending cap, are suspect at best.

Lost to Mahomes four times. Lost to Burrow once. And then lost to the refs this year.

PJ Fleck only does things that are the norm among P4 (not P5) head coaches. You pegged him.

That's a fine point and I would expect such gratitudes are expressed in such meetings. For a guy like Koi, he still absolutely should make a small public comment on it. My opinion. Few if any on here (who post) agree. I don't care

Your first two paragraphs must be aimed at some other GH poster, because I haven't said anything like that nor am I expecting any such thing. Here would be a perfectly good example. Fleck: Thanks for coming to the 2026 Gopher football spring press conference. Any questions? Media: Yes coach...

KOC has allowed Flores to essentially run the defense, with minimal if any oversight. Flores should very much get it that this is the correct way to do things. Allen can have a big input in who he wants to be the OC. And that OC can focus on the offense without any head coach duties. Granted...

The person who makes the claim is typically required to provide a link. I don't care that you don't care. That's still the requirement. I'll just take your word for it

Even if I take your word about Miami, you already gave the reason why that one specifically doesn't matter. Point is, it had absolutely nothing to do with Cig somehow seeing something in Mendoza that no one else in the country knew was there. Mendoza would've also won the Heisman at Miami or...

They sure do. It's almost like on defense ... they know what's coming .......

I struggle to see how consistency, in of itself, therefore automatically lends legitimacy. I just view those as two instances where Fleck is consistently doing the wrong (spirited) thing. My opinion, which very few agree with and that's fine.

I'm sure you have no interest in a semantics debate, nor do I. If the players are doing them, that in itself proves that they aren't pointless. And indeed, they aren't pointless. We aren't going to agree, that's fine. You are very much welcome to feel as you do. I say you and Fleck are wrong...

It's going to be Cousins. And it's going to be delicious. I do like that

Vehemently disagree that they would be pointless. You're free to feel that way but that's going too far, for me. As I said, it's possible for things to live in the middle and it's possible for multiple things to be true at the same time. The internet viciously tries to not allow that, but...

I don't think there is a good or valid analogy in the MLB for what the Gophers and similar P4 programs are in the current college football world. We only have any pocketbook at all because of the House settlement and being in the Big Ten. Otherwise, it would be like we didn't have any owner...

Because everyone in and associated with the league knows he's the top defensive mind the game, and is looking for a head coaching opportunity. I don't think it would be controversial at all .... when you limit it strictly to football. The whole bit about the lawsuit, that's another thing. For...

This is brilliant, and has to be coming at some point. I would think you could at the very least use it to run ads, say along the border of the field. Like how they do on hockey boards?

I'll ask for a third and final time. Please note, questions typically are sentences that end with question marks. Is there any room for anything inbetween? Even though it was already clear the previous two times, I'll also reframe the question: Is it valid that other coaches might say more...
