    P.J. Fleck on freshman QB Drake Lindsey’s debut: ‘Cool, calm, precise’

    The roster management piece of college athletics would be a nightmare these days. As a fan the best course of action is to just enjoy the team you have that year knowing there is a good chance it will look quite a bit different next season.

    P.J. Fleck on freshman QB Drake Lindsey’s debut: ‘Cool, calm, precise’

    Not what my name means.... And I don't think they did what they did for fear of him transferring. Right now he is the starter next year so if they have opportunities to get him quality minutes I would expect to see them try to get the most out of those reps. As a coach it would be foolish to...

    P.J. Fleck on freshman QB Drake Lindsey’s debut: ‘Cool, calm, precise’

    Would seem like the coaches agree because in the past they would not have had Drake running the normal offense during mop up time the way they did this past Saturday. Was good to see them let him put the ball in the air and not just turn and hand off. Obviously a chance we go back into the qb...

    Is NEB QB - Dylan Raiola actually a True Patrick Mahomes Fanboy?

    There actually is a pretty shocking resemblance between the two. If someone didn't know better I could see them mistaking Raiola for a younger brother of Mahomes.

    Week 3 Other Games Thread

    I'm just glad Bama has a bye week after this game before they play Georgia on the 28th. If they were playing Georgia next week there is a solid chance they would look past the Badgers but with the bye week the coaches should be able to keep players focused on beating Wisconsin.

    Week 3 Other Games Thread

    Probably one of the only times I will gladly root for Alabama.....hopefully they kick the crap out of the Badgers.

    Conference Realignment Updates

    I mean it works....but the numbers after conference names haven't really meant anything for a long time anyway. The SEC/ACC the right idea in terms of a name in that it works no matter how many teams are in them.

    P.J. Fleck on freshman QB Drake Lindsey’s debut: ‘Cool, calm, precise’

    No point worrying about redshirts anymore, especially for QBs. There was a time when that was important but with player movement these days you play the kids that can play and you don't project your roster out for more than a year or two tops. Hopefully Brosmer stays healthy but they are still...

    Culture Counts: Deion Sanders chaotic culture turns into locker room violence in Colorado

    That makes a lot of sense. You can get by on talent to a large degree in high school and even college...the pro game is a whole different story though. Everyone at that level is an elite talent so the guys that make it are the ones that can do all the other things needed to succeed.

    Max Brosmer produced the best passing grade in the nation in Week 2

    Brosmer's completion percentage through 2 games is over 70% and would be closer to 80% if the WR did a better job catching the ball. AK routinely hovered around 50% last year....so I would say your eye test is very much correct. On the decision making front.....I can't recall many throws...

    Culture Counts: Deion Sanders chaotic culture turns into locker room violence in Colorado

    Fairness in savagery....Deion claims the band story is made up. But it is telling that most of us just assumed the story was true because it felt so on brand with the sh!tshow that Colorado has been under Coach Prime.

    "Koi Perich is a Star in the Making"

    Bucky got almost the exact same average number of carries per game in his first year at Oregon that he got at Minnesota. He didn't leave because of playing time he left because he was offered a crap ton of money. As for Koi, you play him if he is ready to play you sit him if he isn't. It...

    "Koi Perich is a Star in the Making"

    Hey....you heard him....football is easy......he's been playing in small town Minnesota, that is essentially exactly the same as Big Ten football so he should be fully ready to start right now with no concerns at all. I mean some would argue that it is smart to bring him along slowly, gradually...

    2024 MN High School Football thread

    After seeing them in action I really don't know that North should be #2 team but always tough to say in Minnesota football because the teams rarely look great so you really have to lower expectations. One thing I will say for North though is that their short passing game is solid. QB didn't...

    Player grades: Top performers in Gophers’ 48-0 win over Rhode Island

    I have seen a fair amount of their first two games. AK hasn't been bad but their RB is what is driving their offense as he has been awesome. They haven't played a tough opponent yet either. Howard and an Akron team coming off a 2-10 season in 2023. AK has thrown 4 of his 6 TDs after the...

    "Koi Perich is a Star in the Making"

    Special teams is an easy place to work him in while he catches up on defense. If I had to guess he is probably starting or seeing heavy playing time on D by mid season but time will tell. Exciting to have a high level athlete like that, those guys are tough to come by.
