    Wow, this Munnerlyn kid looks like a real sleeper. Can really run. Quick first step is great feet at 1:29 of the video. Hmmm...

    How would you feel about the possibility of an 8 team playoff

    This is the best concept I've seen thus far. Very interesting.

    Numbers wise, I'd like to see another LB myself. DT may be the biggest need, though, and a big OG too. If they finished with those 3 I'd be thrilled.

    Gophers ranked 4th in returning offensive talent

    Every one of those guys was recruited solely by Fleck as well. Not bad for 2.5 recruiting classes.

    Indiana DE Austin Booker commits to the Gophers

    Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, Michigan State, Missouri. One of the very best offer lists in this class.

    Fleck releases short statement

    No, you're simply wrong. Far better that he devote his time and energy to "team, staff, parents and recruits" than blanket statements for fans. Zero complaints from me.

    University of Minnesota won't use Minneapolis police officers for football games, other events in wake of George Floyd death

    Exactly. If the Floyd situation happened 10 years ago before body cameras and smart phone cameras, does anyone honestly think anything would have come from it? It would have been the hysterical claims of a dozen eyewitnesses against the testimony of 4 peace officers, presumed to be justified in...

    I'm most surprised/impressed by his speed. Kid appears to have some wheels.

    I agree that it doesn't show the true Twin Cities but the rest of the world has no way of knowing that. Perception is reality and the perception is as bad as it gets. Minneapolis and Minnesota look truly awful right now. Those national news stories are also starting to bring up Fernando...

    University of Minnesota won't use Minneapolis police officers for football games, other events in wake of George Floyd death

    There's a detailed write-up in the Strib today. He was not breathing and had no pulse in the ambulance. Chest compressions, air bag, defibrillator, the whole works. They worked on him for an hour after he arrived at the hospital and eventually declared him dead there but he was already gone...

    I like the looks of him, too. Appears to be very quick and seems to accelerate into/through the tackle. If he can add 30-40 lbs and learn to stay low, could be the real deal. Now rated a 90 by 247 fwiw.

    Starters....

    Yikes, this drives home how badly they need to develop another tackle or two. Maybe even a JUCO in class of 2022?

    GopherSports: Who is your Gopher football Linebackers Mount Rushmore?

    Leverenz was really something special. Unfortunately, I believe he blew out a knee on that awful 80's era turf and was never the same.

    House: One of my breakout candidates for the Gophers in 2020: WR Chris Autman-Bell

    I hope I'm wrong but I'm not expecting much from Nnamdi. He hasn't impressed in drills and scrimmages. Not very quick/fast/athletic, looks like a TE trying to play WR. Brown-Stephens, on the other hand, appears to be a terrific athlete. Wouldn't be surprised if he works his way into the rotation.

    Kill addresses previous comments on Fleck: "I said my piece and that was it. I moved on...I said what I said and move on in life."

    Back when this all started, Jerry wasn't responding to questions about PJ. He steered an already-completed interview on a topic that had absolutely nothing to do with the Gophers into a highly personal diatribe about PJ Fleck and "his first wife." It's entirely fair game that Jerry be asked...

    I agree, it's amazing to see. On an individual level, ratings don't mean much. However... In the 2015 class, Green's composite rating would have been tied for #1 out of 24 (exact same as Dior Johnson). In the big Empire Class of 2016, it would have been 5th out of 21 (just above Kamal Martin)...

    Jerry Kill: “I’ve been known as a fix-it guy. We’ll see if I still have that title or get fired. I’m like anybody else.”

    There is no reason to believe that Kill would have ever made a change on Limegrover and Zebrowski, and there's no reason to believe the offense would have improved as long as Limey and Z were still in place. The first thing Claeys did when he got the HC job was to fire both of them. That says it...

    It's interesting to see the bump from last year. In 2020, ESPN graded 4 of the 24 at 73 and 14 of 24 (58%) at 75 or lower. Thus far for 2021, 0 of 14 are graded 73 and only 3 of 14 (21%) are graded 75 or lower. Will know more in a few years but the ceiling and floor are both appear to be...

    Start up Spring Practice now

    The OP was "Start Up Spring Practice Now." We are currently in the month of April. To say we should, shouldn't, will or won't have practice in August is an entirely different conversation. The fact that the total death rate in NYC has fallen the last 10 days is fabulous news, but it's an...
