I was wondering the same thing. When Frost came out and said Nebraska wasn't a rebuild, there was a lot of criticism here aimed at Fleck because "Frost didn't need a year zero". Except it turned out he needed two of them at least...:sneaky: As much as I applaud Frost for what he did at UCF, I...

I honestly think Tanner Morgan and Rashod Bateman have a better shot at Heisman than Martinez. Wow. But I get it. It's not about the legitimate odds, it's about getting people to bet. People know the Nebraska name and think there must be something there.

I wonder how close he is to completing the semester and if that would get him to graduation? I'm wondering if he can still turn stuff in for Spring semester or make other arrangements? I'm guessing he believes he's either getting a waiver or completing the semester and graduating because I...

I don't know. A few things to think about: 1. The big spending alumni had told Coyle they were not going to donate unless Claeys was let go. They felt like he couldn't recruit and couldn't be the face of the program. I have that from multiple sports reporters who heard that directly from...

Completely disagree. Charge them with police brutality, reckless endangerment and manslaughter. You can always amend and/or strike the charges later. The charges don't have to be perfect. Just charge them, get them in jail, let emotions cool, then figure out if the charges are appropriate...

I still really question whether this is realistic or not. One of the problems is most of the schools in the P5 have satellite schools that are in lower divisions. If U of M TC pulls out of the NCAA with the P5, now where is UMD, Morris, etc. going to get money for athletics (assuming the money...

This is one of those topics that I would have been fine had he not made any public comments, but appreciate the statement he made.

I didn't try to talk to Mason there, but I can tell you he was HAMMERED at the pep fest. Oof, he talked for a little bit and my wife and I just looked at each other stunned that anyone let him have a microphone. They would have been miles ahead saying he was studying film or something. Wow...

I'm a little scared to post this because of where it might go, but it is somewhat football related, so here it is. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/university-of-minnesota-minneapolis-police-officers-football-games-other-events-george-floyd-death I'm very surprised by the timing of this...

Glen Mason was a good coach, he was the right coach at the time he was hired. However, he was also a guy that for much of his tenure chose to be adversarial with the press, chose to not build relationships with Minnesota HS coaches, chose to put most of his quality players on offense at the...

One other possibility if STU decides to have scholarship football is that the Summit would then have 6 football playing members. That gives them an automatic berth in the playoffs. I could see the other Summit members pulling out of MVC.

They can watch but can't participate. I meant "show up" meaning show up to participate, but didn't say that. If they participate it becomes team related activity. I think there's a little leeway if someone throws him a pass for fun or he tries to take big Dan down on the field or comes out...

He doesn't have to declare for next year until next March (depending on if/when season is played, etc.). I haven't seen anyone really show him as a high round pick yet. I feel like he has enough to work on that he might benefit from sticking around another year.

The problem is he can't just "try" it. If he shows up for a formal football practice, he either has to forgo any scholarship he has or they have to convert it to a football scholarship and either take one from a former walk-on or help someone figure out they want to transfer. I would be real...

That is assuming that many tests are even available, which is unlikely. And then it ignores the accuracy. Dr. Osterholm said many of the tests out there are at best 90% accurate. One false negative could infect the whole team. I don't think counting on testing is a viable solution. A...

Leidner does not get the credit he deserves for what he accomplished here. I would have loved to have him here for one more year while Morgan RSed. Obviously was much better than the Croft/Rhoda disaster. But Morgan is in rarefied air for Gopher QB's. He could pretty much rewrite the record...

I have moved on from Kill for the most part, but still enjoy having a laugh at the various things that come out of his mouth. I will ask one question - if Kill is a "fix-it" guy, explain the Gophers' offense during his tenure or the Rutgers offense when he was OC. Not sure he "fixed" anything.

This talks about the proposed moratorium. Basically, the G5 and FCS want to be able to spend less and potentially have fewer sports for the next 2-4 years and reading between the lines don't want new members joining under those requirements. I would think if a school committed to meeting...

I wouldn't say they're the same, but they're not independent, either. Walz can say no sports at any public MN school and the U will be obliged to obey. If he is trying to look like he's letting the individual schools choose, he could say they recommend against it, and it would be really tough...

Ra'Shede Hageman is one I thought of as well for the modern version. I agree with Bleed on the over all list. Those guys achieved things nobody has at the U since. He was never All B1G or All-American on D, so I'd have a tough time putting him on there vs. ones that were. That said, I'm sure...
