    How did I not know Alabama has a player named Kool-Aid?!?!

    Tyler Nubin - All American Award lists....

    100%. I know USC and OSU produce DBs too, but like Stocker said below, MN has pumped out some good ones the past few years, so if staying home is even a little bit important to Perich, you’d think it helps to have produced AWjr, Howden, Smith, St. Juste, Williamson, Nubin, etc.

    NCAA President to propose New Division

    Lots of details needed, but here’s how I’m reading this: “Rich” schools (AKA, most of P5) form their own division for ALL sports (not just FB). Schools can opt-in or out. Those who opt-out would presumably stick with current rules. Opt-in means a few things: Schools can pay students NIL...

    All Things DinkyTown Athletes

    I think you’re forgetting option #3: More people have joined DTA in recent months and their partnerships (DDB, vodka, pizza, etc) have been successful and raised enough money to make the current players feel appreciated. Probably not a massive amount, but amounts comparable to what they were...

    2023-24 College Football Transfer Portal Thread

    Dang, getting him to visit here first (presumably) is huge given that list. Nice.

    AK

    I bet he’ll land at a P5 as a clear backup/project. Sounds like he wants to “be developed”, so maybe find a spot where he learns behind a solid starter with a QB whisperer in place. Ain’t gonna be any NIL, and I doubt his brother pulls a scholarship at the same place.

    LOL…this is absolutely true. But that was last year! This year, Brosmer will be All-B1G, Jackson will put up greater numbers than Bateman, Walley will be a Thorpe finalist, and we’ll all get to relive 2019, but with wins over Iowa and Wisconsin!

    Quick Lane Bowl Predict the Score Thread: Minnesota vs Bowling Green

    I think the total will go over 35 and Minnesota will find a way to win, although perhaps not cover 5.5. Tough to know without being sure who will be playing for both teams, but I'd bet Taylor is healthy, we know Jackson is returning and healthy, CrAB will be more healthy than he was all year...

    Playoff could have used 8 teams this year

    Still think it's too many, and that 9-12 would have almost zero chance, but I'd watch all those games -- which is ultimately what that workgroup cared about.

    What bowl do you predict Gophers will be in?

    As Adam Sandler famously said, “Information that would’ve been useful to me YESTERDAY!” lol…

    What bowl do you predict Gophers will be in?

    Yup. No complaining this year…but the last two years, definitely complaint worthy. Part of me was hoping MN ended up in Phoenix again so we could say it doesn’ matter if the team is 5-7 or 8-4…they’ll end up in the same spot.

    What bowl do you predict Gophers will be in?

    Not officially, but it’s quite likely. One piece of that puzzle already fell with Georgia being ranked higher than OSU so the B1G keeps the Tampa bowl (whereas that was off the table prior to yesterday). The other piece is whether PSU stays in the NYD6 bowls, but everything I’ve seen says they...

    CFP predictions

    Like @Pompous Elitist said above, the answer to who would win between Alabama & FSU (not today, btw…well over a month from now, but I digress) is “We don’t know.” They both looked shaky at times, including just two weeks ago in rivalry games. The committee did what they did, but I don’t...

    CFP predictions

    Yeah, never thought I’d be a Booger apologist, but he was taking blows from all sides during that breakdown and stood his ground. The spin machine was in full effect and nobody else was even willing to question. Unreal, but really shouldn’t be surprising I guess. All about the $$ — just like it...

    Strib Chip Scoggins: Minnesota QB search twice as tricky, given coach P.J. Fleck’s philosophy

    ON PAPER, Minnesota is signing much better QBs than they have in my lifetime. Athan, Clark, Knuth, and even Annexstad all had other FBS offers. So PJ is getting people here that others believe can play QB in college. Either they’re miscalculating that beforehand, not developing them, or not...

    Gophers offer Wake Forest transfer RB Justice Ellison

    Exactly. It’s a depth play. Taylor is obviously the alpha, and knowing PJ, will get 25+ carries per game. Do you want Jordan Nubin - who started 5th or 6th on the depth chart last year - as your only real backup besides true Frosh? I don’t.

    All Conference: Special Team/Defense/Offense

    That’s a lot of accolades for a really disappointing season. I wish it would’ve gone differently as far as wins and losses, but there’s some reason for hope/optimism in the program as a whole.

    CFP predictions

    Clearly that’s not gonna happen and you posted it to show how strong FSU’s case is, but that would be INCREDIBLE, lol. Monitoring TV and radio south of the Mason-Dixon Line would be delicious.
