Agree. I'm old and the game has flipped a bit with shooters now being valued much more highly than bangers, but you still need bangers so you don't get manhandled.

Good question. Game has changed so much over the years. I'd say Oturu, but I never saw him as a true post player (of course, I'm 72 and as I said earlier, the days of big guys just posting up low are pretty much long gone). I thought Reggie Lynch was more the true post prototype. So, one of...

I can see both sides and I can't disagree with you completely. I think we have to somewhat accept that this is where our program is right now. We find some fits for our system who have some upside and then hope that our NIL/Revenue Sharing pot gets large enough to hang on to those guys who...

He's too busy watching gladiator movies.

If Alex Daniels can be a running back, so can Chad Greenway.

We've overlooked the Fargo Flash Justin Conzemius on our list of recruiting success in the Dakotas.

Going back a bit further, Fargo's Barry Mayer put up over 1,800 rushing yards in his three years with the Gophers. Hard-nosed between the tackles runner. Same backfield as Jim Carter for two years.

If we are talking about the 1970s LB Michael Hunt, he was an Ortonville (MN) high school grad. After a radio gaffe, I believe Ray Christensen began referring him to Michael as opposed to Mike.

I had the same thoughts about Voss. I don't see Voss in the Warren mold because Warren goes about 255 and I doubt Voss gets that big. As good as Bowers was at Georgia, I always marveled at how Penn State found ways to get Warren into about every play. However things shake out, it appears...

I think Washington went about 270 and ran a 4.6 40 (don't know if it was hand-timed or electronically-timed LOL). He was and is an absolute freak in terms of athletic ability. He didn't catch a lot of passes at Georgia, but he was a key in the running game and someone the defense had to...

There's a Hybrid-TE position that seems to be catching with guys like Bowers and Warren. Saddiq is another one. Georgia ran Bowers and Washington on the field at the same time and both were match-up nightmares from their positions. Not saying these guys will be comparable to that pair, but...

Two tight ends and two wingbacks!

There are more bettors. Both Harper's and The Atlantic have had recent cover stories about the meteoric rise in sports betting. I probably should have expressed my thoughts better. The casual fan may lose interest in the sport as a whole and only concentrate on their team. I guess what I'm...

I think the casual fan will lose interest in the game as a whole while still following their hometown squad or alma mater, but like you say, bettors and fans with a more salient interest in the game as a whole will likely more than make up for that.

Trost was a good player. Part of a great 1980-81 Augsburg team. Ronnie Henderson, Greg Boone, etc. My on-court embarrassments usually took place at the Salvation Army Gym down on West 7th in St. Paul. I had a couple of college buddies who played pro ball in Europe and they would drag me down...

4 TE offense!

I hesitate to comment because I have no idea (but that hasn't stopped me before). I think this is more a unilateral statement from the White House because I believe they know Congress isn't going to do anything about this at least in the short term. We can argue the political upside/downside...

Got it. I guess I should read the articles all the way through.

Well said. At risk of sending this to the OT Board (and I say this as a 50+ year veteran of politics and government) is that the legislative branch is supposed to act as the mediating force within the Checks and Balances and they have largely abandoned that role. Instead, we have an on-going...

There may be some, but the only one I recall is the Alabama baseketball player who had been a professional in the US being denied further college eligibility. The Pavia case is still the precedence that is causing problems and has been and likely will be the standard most athletes' will use in...
