    Big Ten Coaches talk anonymously about other teams.

    I suppose a guy’s gotta appreciate your sunny outlook on things, but Iowa had us 31 to nothing at the half last year and could’ve beat us 60 to nothing if Ferentz hadn’t been completely bored in the second half. PJ has a long way to go yet on game day the other stuff is a nice to have but...

    The Gophers haven't been ranked in the AP since 2022?!

    It certainly feels that way to me about half of our games even the ones that we win are so ugly. A lot of positives with the program but a good percentage of the time game day is not included in that.

    Big Ten Coaches talk anonymously about other teams.

    OK Penn State you got me. Michigan was seventh in the conference that year in USC 10th. Neither are power programs right now although Michigan should turn around quickly.

    Big Ten Coaches talk anonymously about other teams.

    I think the upper echelon conference coaches think PJ is harmless. When was the last time we even made any of them slightly nervous other than maybe Michigan which cratered post Harbaugh some. He wins his fair share against the rest of the conference and has absolutely no answer or fight in him...

    Your favorite bits of Gopher lore or obscure details

    Maroney’s first long TD run as a freshman in the dome stunned the crowd and it’s something I will always remember.

    Newcomers/younger players who caught my eye (spring game)

    Our rushing offense has ranked 130, 121 and 130 the past three years. Our OL has left something to be desired; although our play designer/caller is JV.

    Newcomers/younger players who caught my eye (spring game)

    I wouldn’t generally call our OL groups now or really at any time under PJ particularly athletic. We’ve had some higher end guys obviously, but particularly the last three years our guys whiff a lot and end up standing around, watching tackles being made either at the line of scrimmage or for a...

    The Mountain West is in serious dialogue to add FCS powerhouse North Dakota State as a football-only member starting this coming season

    I’ll make sure to take Siri out to the woodshed for putting the space in there. And, I didn’t bring it up just commented.

    "I'll put up the money and we can go get Fernando [Mendoza]." Mark Cuban tells FOS that he provided the NIL money which allowed Indiana to sign QB

    Since PJ has been here, I think this past year was our lowest NFL output. It’s an aberration – – at least hopefully. Year before we put four players into the NFL that made game day rosters, so let’s see how Indiana’s class does this year. That’s what I mean.

    The Mountain West is in serious dialogue to add FCS powerhouse North Dakota State as a football-only member starting this coming season

    He’s said some dumb stuff but his reciting the perception of Mn not only in our neighboring states but countrywide is legit. We have become a punch lline.

    "I'll put up the money and we can go get Fernando [Mendoza]." Mark Cuban tells FOS that he provided the NIL money which allowed Indiana to sign QB

    Yeah, obviously has a lot of talent but I think it breaks down into two camps. If folks are PJ apologists they’re going to say it’s talent for folks like me who think that PJ can’t X and O and/or game day coach his way out wet paper bag you’re gonna say it’s mostly coaching. I would say the...

    Gophers QB Drake Lindsey Arrested on Underage Drinking, Fake ID Charges

    Well, for one thing, our high school had an area across the street from school where during lunch like 50 kids would hang out and smoke cigarettes the whole time and it was set aside by the school for that so might surprise you if you’re asking these questions. The 70s and then into the 80s...

    ESPN: Top newcomer for every Power 4 college football team (MN: OLB/Edge TJ Bush Jr. (Cal transfer))

    He looks like a player, but from the spring game the speedo like football pants he was wearing were a little much even though for the most part I will say let the kids be kids.

    Gophers QB Drake Lindsey Arrested on Underage Drinking, Fake ID Charges

    My brother had the best fake ID of all time. I’m three years older than him so gave him my expired license same last name looked like each other piece of cake. For whatever reason, my two kids both had Illinois fake IDs there was some connection to Illinois in our town to where that’s where a...

    Thoughts on 2026?

    The football team can be its own best marketing apparatus by going to way better bowl games than we have been.
