    Updated Player Ratings.

    Yep. Koi is our second highest rated recruit in the ratings era only if you just look at the 247 ranking, where he has a 96 compared to Carter's 95. If you go by the composite rank, however, Carter is ranked higher with 0.9566 vs Koi's 0.9481. For reference, Jeff Jones had a 97 rating from...

    Court hearing scheduled on 2-time Transfer rule

    My theory is that NIL will normalize around proven players after a few more years. Yes, some of the top 5 star HS recruits might pen some NIL deals, but I think they will be smaller than we are seeing now. Why do I think this? Well, I think the people ponying up the money will start to get...

    Miami TE Cam McCormick granted ninth year of eligibility

    In the article it explained that he broke his leg in 2018, and then complications from that caused him to miss 2019 and 2020 (and then he got the COVID year everyone got in 2020). Then he injured his foot 2 weeks into 2021 and missed the rest of the season. Certainly an outlier for sure.

    Goetz officially AD at Iowa

    Ooof, I had forgotten about that but you mentioning it brought the memory back. (Just a heads up, I talk about generations here, but I am not making any claims about any particular generation, just saying being in different generations can lead to not seeing fully eye to eye on things)...

    Rossi leaves for $1.5 million

    If it was just for the money, which we don't have concrete evidence pointing one way or the other at this point, this is on PJ or whoever didn't authorize giving Rossi more. However, it's possible there were other factors that lead to Rossi leaving, but that's all speculation at this point. PJ...

    Miami TE Cam McCormick granted ninth year of eligibility

    You'd hope he'd have a masters or PhD by this point . . . or have gotten a second (or even third) undergrad degree.....

    2023-24 College Football Transfer Portal Thread

    Same. I know there's not a lot of space left for more transfers, but still worth reaching out to some of these players. Everyone else will be.

    Iowa still hasn’t hired a new Offensive Coordinator

    Any chance Kirk just says "I'll handle the offensive play calling" if he can't find someone he likes?

    Projecting the Gophers' offensive depth chart in 2024

    You joke, but honestly if we had a creative, "trick" playcall like that I would be overjoyed.

    Oregon has Minnesota needs

    How about Kris Lindahl? He has the money to blanket the metro with billboards, surely he has some to spare to donate to the U? (This is a joke, just in case it didn't come across as such)

    All Things DinkyTown Athletes

    Seems pretty win win to me. People who enjoy Vodka have an excuse to buy more. A local MN business gets more profit, so that money stays within MN instead of going to a company based elsewhere. DTA gets a big donation, which helps the U in this new NIL realm Sure, maybe they don't succeed, but...

    Oregon has Minnesota needs

    1. Phil Knight graduated from the University of Oregon for his undergrad, and was on the Track and Field team which is why he donates to the University of Oregon. Any "mega" donor the U would successfully get and keep would need a similar connection. 2. We do NOT need Elon Musk. He's running...

    New DC

    Yeah, I understand being worried that their QB throws a bomb down field to someone wide open, but I think the odds are that a cold QB is not going to make that throw under proper pressure. Our pass rush needs to improve, and we need to use it more often.

    What happens when espn and CFP designs your national championship rings ... (yeah it sucks)

    The fact that even on the comically big fake rings it's still hard to read "College Football Playoff" should have tipped someone off in the design process that it was bad.

    PJ having his own Reality TV show

    You aren't wrong, but it would never happen. However, I have a pitch for a reality TV show: We stick every B1G HC in a house over the summer completely isolated from the outside world. They then live together and compete in various "coaching related" games, and each week vote 1 coach out of the...

    Non Revenue Generating Sports

    Sure, I'm just pointing out that the conference realignment isn't suddenly causing these non-revenue sports to travel across the country for meets/competitions, as they have already been doing that. The notion of what conference you are a part of is not really a factor in scheduling for these...

    Non Revenue Generating Sports

    You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, and it shows. So called "Olympic sports" largely not regional in how they compete. There might be a Conference Championship at the end of the season, and a Conference Champion may be crowned each year, but they are not competing head to head...
