I doubt we will see much in the way of additional sports being added in the immediate future. Also, I think if any sports get added down the road, it is likely going to be things like mens soccer or lacrosse, or schools finally field teams they don't have where they are the only school not...

Two ideas for 'all 18/single location' format: 1. Keep the 6 games in opening round to pare it down to 12 like you suggest. They could maybe do 2 games on Tuesday evening (the 11-14 and 12-13 games) and then 4 other games on Wednesday. The Tuesday turnaround is tight if those teams had played...

I am holding out hope they are actually going to add a good opponent, and maybe another decent opponent, with one being on the road.

With Washington and Oregon coming into league in 2024/25 along with USC and UCLA, conference play will be more challenging. Hopefully we can improve this year and be on better footing for when they arrive. Also, I wonder if they will keep the 24 game schedule, or think about going to 30. The...

So, do these announcements mean Crawford is taking over full-time pitching coach duties from McDevitt, and we will be in the market for a volunteer coach to replace Kvasnicka?

To close the loop, Bateman signs with Cubs (terms not disclosed), and Klassen signs with Phillies for $300,000. Good luck to both.

Klassen drafted in round 6 by Phillies; Bateman in round 8 by the Cubs.

The article I read was short on details as to what/how much hazing occurred. Story also said the summary report of the investigation didn't find he/coaching staff knew, but there were opportunities for them to know. Just not a good look for a coach that has had some rough seasons of late.

As it stands now, this schedule is gross.

It is looking like 3 teams (Maryland, Indiana, Iowa) are pretty safe for the NCAA tournament at-large selections. A couple sites had Rutgers on the first four out prior to weekend, so Gophers likely played spoiler and forced Scarlet Knights to win in Omaha to get in.

After starting the year 3-18, they finished 15-16 in the final 31 games, so definitely much more competitive after the horrid start. Also, their schedule was more difficult this year overall (74 SOS vs. 131 last year). Offensively, batting average and on-base percentage was slightly better...

Gophers lose big in the season finale, 14-6. Ugly stat of the day: Rutgers scored 8 runs in the 6th on only 2 hits. 18-34 overall; 10-14 in the conference.

Wietgrefe has been really, really good of late.

Gophers get a nice 10-7 win tonight at Maryland. Offense was really good tonight. Swenson with a 2 out, full count bases 3 run double to put Gophers in front by a run early, then added a solo HR on top of it. Merila, Neels and Hokenson also with HRs tonight. 12 hits, 7 walks, some good at...

Gophers can't complete the sweep as they fall 4-1 in finale. Holetz settled in after a 3 HR in 1st and bullpen was good, but offense just couldn't get anything going. Larson pinch-hit triple accounted for our only run.

Hoping for the best with Rooney, but fearing the worst.

Is it safe to say that with no more ACC challenge, and maybe/maybe not a Gavitt game, and with the team's prospects not looking good for the upcoming season at the moment, the non-conference schedule could be pretty bleak this year?

When we beat Iowa in the series opener a few weeks ago to move to 4-3 in conference play, I thought this program might be turning the corner back to respectability, and legitimately thought they had a shot to make the conference tourney. Losing 7 of 8 league games - and a few real bad losses...

At least we kept them out of the endzone and held them to 6 field goals.

Was thinking same thing - was hoping a pitch could find Swenson's barrel or Bateman could have come through, but not to be. We seem to not get the soft runs that other teams are scoring on us. That home run seemed to be in the air for a long time and didn't land far behind the fence. Not that...
