    Max Brosmer vowing to be more efficient after disappointing debut

    Honestly, I really hope we call plays to his strengths instead of trying to force him to fit the program. Full disclosure, I have no idea what those strengths are, having barely seen the guy, but I trust the coaching staff does.

    Happy Five, Upset Five Fanbases: Week 1 (Upset: Minnesota; "This game showed us zero imagination and risk from the Gophers")

    That's where I'm at. I've defended him, and continue to defend him if someone comes out with a "fire him" vibe. But it's getting really hard to believe he has another gear waiting to be unlocked. I'm now 70/30 in the camp that thinks 2019 was the ceiling with him. It was a helluva ceiling, but I...

    My email to GopherSports

    Part of Coyle's job must be reshaping how the University and the Regents have approached athletics funding. Especially in light of all the changes in the last year, including power 5 schools being allowed to pay students directly. When you consider the massive TV rights deals and flood of new...

    Time.for PJ Fleck to Go, Engine Started

    Too soon for talks of a regime change. But regardless of end of year record, if I don't see Fleck progressing in his abilities, I'm concerned. I will never accept this idea that we can't hire/find a better coach if we need to. That's a sucker-ass mindset that is far too ingrained into MN...

    Scoggins: Not a lot to get excited about over ‘new’ Gophers offense

    After only one game, there is nothing to argue about on this. It's a spot on analysis of a one-game season.

    No Debbie Downers thread

    Ok so then to summarize, we both agree in freedom of speech? Sick!

    Explain the Gophers loss to UNC in 1 sentence

    Gophers continue to lose coin-clip games as team struggles to use ChatGPT to call plays.

    No Debbie Downers thread

    Totally legit. But anyone that enjoys sports knows how this works by now. It's like complaining about death and taxes. Fans wallow after losses, some more than others.

    No Debbie Downers thread

    Aside from Wally's splash play I didn't see a helluva lot defensively - but am I underestimating the vaunted UNC offense post Drake May? We've got a few games to tighten up, and then when BIG play starts I'll have more data to make an assessment on the D. A post? Not trying to be snarky, but...

    No Debbie Downers thread

    If you can't understand that sports fans are emotional then I don't know what to tell you OP. You wan't passion in the fanbase? The only thing that annoys me more than sports fans who ONLY see the negative, are ones who act like if you ain't pollyanna then you're not a fan. There's a reason...

    My email to GopherSports

    I know it will do nothing, but I also emailed Gophersports urging them to invest the $$ needed to attract recruits and coaching.

    Explain it to me like I'm five years old

    It would be nice for once to feel like PJ could outsmart somebody. Great motivational speaker - but I'm really not so sure he's very smart. Dude's a salesman most of all. I don't think he's a grifter, but I do think he's a salesman.

    Why are we surprised?

    This.... this is what ultimately is driving me away. Gopher football has just been BORING for so long. Even when we win, it's a grind. The tailgates and time with friends who don't care as much as I do are the highlights for me.

    Why are we surprised?

    Shame on me for being surprised PJ played for a field goal in the first quarter of the first game of the year. I was lukewarm on re-upping my tickets this year, but I did so. I really can't imagine doing so again next year, at least not without a reason to believe things can improve. There...

    The headline in the Friday newspaper will be?…

    Uncle Rico thinks Brosmer can throw over the mountains as Gophers uppercut their way to flawless victory!

    Sun exposure on north side?

    Honestly, I have rarely noticed the weather in a negative way. I have found it sorta fun to gear up for winter games. Now the Nov games are my favorite. You'll have a great time on either side of the field if you are prepared for the weather appropriately.

    B10 Coaches talk anonymously about other B10 Coaches.

    This isn't directed towards you, but more just me speaking into the ether on this sentiment. Over PJ's tenure it's something we've heard a lot, and something I have worried about. I'm sort of at peace with whenever he leaves. I really have trust that we can hire another solid coach (maybe not...

    Gopher Pass is Back for 2024 Season

    Honestly, had I known it would be back I might have opted for it instead of my regular seats. I'm surrounded by fans of opposing fanbases in all the premier games and it's super annoying. But, I am planning to explore moving my seats once my window opens in June.

    How many of you think these pre-season rankings of the Gophers are $#!+?

    Aside from just not having the best season, for me it was that I absolutely bought into the AK hype train and thought last season was going to be the final push for a Big Ten West title. I do absolutely think Fleck has been a success here.
