    No idea why we lifted Kruzan after 4 innings and 59 pitches but unless he is hurt that was a terrible move. Bullpen was terrible today and lineup cannot get the clutch hit with RISP to break the game open when we had the chance. Wish I had the answers but I'm very concerned about where we're...

    Getting very close to just playing the freshman and sophomores and seeing what you've got.

    Exactly how I feel. What's also frustrating is that our lineup is overloaded with upperclassmen. They ought to know better. Tired of being rung up in strike three with a fastball at the knees.

    Martin (2b) and Allen (rf) should buy Selvig a steak dinner. Their miscues on the right side led to an unearned run and has extended two innings. Tied 2-2 in b5 Edit: Gophers have struck out 10 times thru 5 innings.....6 looking. They were good pitches. Need better ABs.

    Took awhile to get rolling tonight but 24 (!) free passes by the Tommies allowed the Gophers to coast. Wish I could have made it. Looked like a great night for a game. Let's hope for good weather this weekend.

    I agree further tweaks are needed but it's a start. The B1G aspires to be more than 4-bid conference to the NCAA tournament. Prior to the PAC additions the B1G was a reliable 3-bid and PAC12 was a reliable 5-bid. Oregon State, Stanford and ASU/AZ would account for about 2 of those bids on...

    Press Conference: Coach Fleck Previews 2026 Gopher Football Spring Practice (video)

    IDK but they also asked the follow up question about whether the program had a ceiling. Definitely trying to get a sensational quote from PJ by asking negative questions.

    Latest update for the production of outgoing/incoming transfers. As we get further into the year it's clear we miss the bats. With the exception of Hamilton, most of the incoming hitters have cooled off in the past few weeks. Nothing too bad though. You can make the argument that the volume of...

    B1G Schedule next weekend Ohio State (1-5) at Minnesota (2-4) - A must win series for both clubs. Loser of this series is likely going to miss the Big Ten tournament. USC (8-1) at Maryland (1-5) - Maryland inexplicably has a top 40 RPI. If they can somehow manage to win this series maybe they...

    IMHO it's very aggressive, especially in the age of NIL and transfer portal. JRob coached 30-31 years and only had 5 AA's 13 times....and it took him until his 12th season to do it. Granted, from 1997 until 2015 he had a run of achieving it 13 times in 17 seasons. So the bar was definitely...

    Everything went right today. I do think this team is a top half of conference team. Time to start another win streak at home next week. Break the Siebert curse!

    Not perfect but 100x better than the awful pool play format from last year.
