    Shama: Next Gophers D-Coordinator Could Come from NFL

    PJ is paid well in a national comparison I believe, but the rest of the staff is paid way less. Not only is the staff paid less on average compared to other power 5 schools, we pay less to our staff than our biggest rivals in the Big10 (Iowa, Wisconsin and Nebraska). And that is a really big...

    Shama: Next Gophers D-Coordinator Could Come from NFL

    Was he successful at BC?? I’m just asking because I’m too lazy to do the leg work. I’ve never thought of BC as great at football this current century and the report was that his defenses there were “top 50.” Well, that tells me his defenses were 45-50ish which isn’t overly encouraging. Now, you...

    Wenger Gone

    Based on that EXTREMELY short sample size, I liked what I saw and he should get a shot at that job.

    I hate it when someone loses their job. Having said that, this was long overdue. The only coaching position in the country that was in a more obvious need of change was Brian Ferentz at Iowa. Let’s hope PJ makes a great hire.

    Boy, I was wrong about Michigan so I’ll eat the crow. Hell of a game. Hate both of them and sure hate to see the cheaters advance, but damn, what a game!!

    Yes it was. Perhaps I’m wrong about Michigan??

    2023-24 Other Bowl Games Thread

    I think Michigan is overrated and should never have been ranked number 1. They are the least deserving of the top 4 in the playoff. Probably should have been Georgia in over them. We’ll see shortly if I’m wrong, but I think Alabama is about to whip that ass.

    2023-24 College Football Transfer Portal Thread

    Can’t speak for all the programs, but Georgia isn’t really losing depth. They are replacing 4 and 5 star portal losses with 4 and 5 star recruits.

    Who is Everyones Other Team?

    Georgia…..and my daughter is in med school at Mercer so I pull for the Bears in FCS. I also used to really pull for Hawaii back in the day when they still ran the triple option under Bob Wagner. Still have a soft spot for them.

    Are We Headed Towards 4 Conferences?

    I saw where they were top 10 for total eyeballs on tv this season. Florida State, while I don’t like them personally, would be a smart add for the Big10 in my opinion and there is little doubt that Fox would write that check, given their tv drawing power. They also have a very good overall...

    Interesting thought, and I’d love to get Gilliam. Having said that, Oklahoma hasn’t exactly been the poster child for good defenses.

    That is a fantastic podcast. If that was your first listen, you should go back and listen to older episodes. Those three together are very good. Extremely entertaining.

    The People’s DC options

    Perhaps a poor choice of words on my part. While I agree he isn’t about to be fired, I think he’s smart enough to realize that this conference is about to change with the addition of some high powered offenses and he can’t afford to get this hire wrong. If he gives this to someone with no prior...

    The People’s DC options

    You are probably correct, but I think PJ’s seat is warm enough that he knows he needs a DC with experience and can’t afford to promote from within. This might be his most important hire since he’s been here, given the offensive additions that are joining this conference. The money appears to be...

    The People’s DC options

    Perhaps not. Didn’t you say 24 to 48 hours? With PJ traveling yesterday talking to recruit, it could happen today if he’s back in town. I think it is a solid, bet that it will be him. Leaning towards him, the defensive coordinator at Ohio or the coach with the Panthers that PJ already has...

    Just hire Jim Leonard PJ!

    What I’ve heard as well. I don’t see any scenario where that happens.
