NFL player grades say otherwise. This one was a swing and a miss. Hoping they get it right with the new GM.

You don't deserve a response until you type out a post that says "I think Duke University committed wrong against Darian Mensah, because they ______" and fill in the blank with specific wrongdoings in your mind.

Yeah you said that already...

I personally do not agree with P4 schools charging fees, at all. That said, when you look at the tuition rates and fees the U is charging students compared to other Big Ten schools, we were a bargain. Age old thing of "well, if our peers are already doing it, then we can't not do it and remain...

Hiring KAM turned out to be a blunder. Maybe one of the worst GM hirings in some time. I can only assume it was to break the Spielman/Zimmer mold and culture.

[EDIT: I misread] I admit that most of Conf USA aren't much better than high end FCS teams. But Northwestern State and Eastern Illinois are also not high end FCS teams.

More words that don't make anything near a concise, explicit allegation of wrongdoing. Why should I listen to your complaints when you can't even tell me in clear, concise language who did wrong and what they did?

Revenue category 4 is "Direction Institutional Support". I would be almost certain that revenue from the new student fees will be accounted for in this category. After that, I could not make out much of a cohesive point being made from the remainder of your words. What is your point? Please...

If it had been $10M, I still think crypto bro's financing UMiami football -- doing it for the same reasons that Saudi princes own EPL teams -- just laugh and wave their hands. How long until actual Saudi prices "buy" teams and players like they do in EPL? It's absurd. I will not support it...

Why are you beating around the bush? Come out with it. Make your actual allegation of "wrongdoing". Say it in clear language. So far, you haven't. Who was trying to do wrong by who? How?

After reading that, and reading in between the lines on that last paragraph ....... to me it's obvious what happened and it explains the timing: one way or another, KAM had to be let go before Flores would come back. May not have been a hard and fast explicit demand, may have been a more...

Dan on Sermons this morning referenced a piece that Seifert did, which I image is similar to the Lewis piece referenced above. On it's free, here it is: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47780122/nfl-minnesota-vikings-gm-kwesi-adofo-mensah-fired-kevin-oconnell-jj-mccarthy Here are some import...

Sure, IU's defense won it 11 regular season games against 11 meh opponents in 2024 and won it 9 regular season games against 9 meh opponents in 2025. Mendoza won them the 3 hard games.

If we don't make the playoffs again in 2026, I'd be fine with firing KOC and promoting Flores to head coach.

So that covers the 2025 "bad" season (we still won more games than we lost). The 2023 bad season was because Cousins had started playing at an MVP level, then blows out his Achilles. That's the entire reason why. Two very, very bad luck years.

Still amazing to me though: - you just cover the GD kickoff against the Bears, they don't win the game - yes I agree, then Green Bay tries to put up a much tougher fight in Week 18 ... but it's at home and our defense is playing at a level that's top of the league, we win that game - we get the...

KAM had a great 2024 FA class. The 2025 class was bad. The drafts cost him his job, plain and simple. Wilfs said as much

Dan was also painstakingly trying emphasize the point that the Vikings inevitably swing like a pendulum back and forth on "style" of head coaches, and now wondering if the same will be true for GM. We had a "football guy" in Rick Spielman. Then we went with a Wall Street analytics "outside the...

Ben Goessling was on with Dan on Fri and specifically addressed why he and actual legitimate reporters like Seifert, Shefter, etc. aren't reporting things like above. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure ........ Dan Rotman? Who TF is that? .... is a stand up guy. That is gossip. That is not news...

FY 2023-24: - total revenues $151.1M - total expenses $152.6M FY 2024-25: - total revenues $163.6M - total expenses $161.2M The 24-25 report created a new expense label for "Institutional NIL Revenue Share" in anticipation of this quickly becoming one of the largest expense line items in the...
