We jumped that shark a while ago. Sad how much of the talk is so focused on money now. As for UNC, I am sure nearly their entire allotment of money will go to basketball and football. Doubt the other sports will get much at all.

I wonder if JD has any eligibility left? :)

I'm confused as to why people are still acting like they are not sure if Brosmer is going to play. He already said back near the end of November that he is planning to play in the bowl game so unless he comes out and says he changed his mind the safe assumption would be that he is going to...

I know....I mean I may have to give up my spot as president of the Ben Johnson fan club after a comment like that.....

Yeah I don't get that headline at all. If the team doesn't bounce back the decision is an easy one to let Johnson go. Bring in a new coach and let him start fresh under the new revenue sharing agreement with essentially a brand new roster. It might be a little more complicated if there was a...

Sure most of you get the joke but for those that don't here is some background on the great Chad Powers.....

The JMS situation was a little bit of a surprise but for the most part we know who is opting out well before the game unless it is for injury reasons that came up during bowl prep. I don't like the opt outs either but it has become a common practice. My personal feeling is that you should play...

Honestly, in pretty much any other year Jeanty's season would be a shoe in for the Heisman. The Unicorn nature of Hunter is the only thing that could potentially derail it. I just come back to the fact that you don't see guys able to do what Hunter does in playing at a really high level on...

A lot also depends on what you can offer a transfer in terms of the roster situation. We could offer Brosmer the starting gig basically unopposed. For 2025 we can offer a shot at the starting gig but there are also a couple of players on the roster who have a year+ in the system and will at...

Agree that it should be between those two for the award. Both are amazing players but I gotta give the nod to Hunter for his ability to be an elite player on both offense and defense. To be able to perform at the level he does while playing the number of snaps he does is unreal. Hunter also...

I feel like people bristle anytime the schedule thing gets brought up in regards to Indiana. The Hoosiers were very good this year, had we played them they almost certainly would have beaten us. They are 100% one of the best teams in the conference this season. But I'm still not convinced...

Professional football players and college football players are very different. For pro players, football is their job, and their livelihood depends on it. For the majority of college football players their career ends when their college career ends. I have no idea if Belichick's curmudgeon...

Iowa is very good at winning close ugly games.....there is a definite skill to that.

Yep....trick now is sustaining it and proving it wasn't just a flash in the pan built on transfers and a really soft schedule. Game against Notre Dame will be interesting. They failed in their one test against a quality team this year but my guess is they will give the Irish a battle.

It will be interesting to see how he relates to today's college athletes. Not sure his style will play well with current college athletes but I guess we will see how it goes.

My comment was about Indiana. In regards to Lindsey, doesn't matter if I have confidence in him or not....the coaches clearly have confidence in Lindsey or Wittke based on them bringing in what looks more like a depth option at QB as opposed to a starter.

I don't know.....we have gotten pretty good at running the tush push and seems like that might be even more effective with a QB who is 6'5" 230. :)

Yeah....Maybe just looking for publicity or something but what a stupid waste of time. The Flag planting thing is dumb but it shouldn't lead to a felony.

Mason rescued the program from the dumpster fire it had become. He will always hold a special place in Gopher football history for that. Unfortunately he could never shake the Ohio State thing and when they turned him down he lost his fire.

Overall the portal has been a positive for us in terms of what we have gained vs. what we have lost. We have definitely lost some guys that could have helped us if they had stayed, Bucky Irving probably being the biggest name but others like Bishop, Oliver, Dixon could have been solid parts of...
