    University of Minnesota Board of Regents member not anticipating on-campus classes in fall

    And that is what almost 100% of all of this is about. How does the DFL protect their most valuable contributors, union members and voters? Our grade schools aren't shut to protect the children who are in no danger from Covid, they are shut to protect the membership of Education Minnesota...

    2021 NFL Draft Prospect: Daniel Faalele, OT, Minnesota

    He is not a flexiable player at all. My brother sat with a former D1 QB at the Northwestern game and he thought Daniel was very raw and very dependent on his superior size against the smaller, less explosive players of the Big Ten. So, a work in progress.

    Start up Spring Practice now

    I'm sorry, but you think college football is about the students? That the U will turn down $75 million dollars so as to minimize, but not eliminate or even deminish, the chance that some players might get sick if they play football? You think our players will not get Covid if they stay off...

    Here is another good sign. Today, Andrea Merkle (sp?) announced that German professional soccer teams can resume play this month. Real games, no fans, but TV for sure. Bad news for you "eternal gloom and doom until after the election" fans.:clap:

    Start up Spring Practice now

    Great News!! South Korean professional baseball started up today. Cheerleaders were wearing masks but the players were not. No human fans in the stands, but the stadium was filled with painted fans in every seat. The good news there is that none of those excellent fans will be drunk or...

    Too bad for the teams that don't? I would guess. If we want to forfit our game with Iowa that will be up to us.

    Start up Spring Practice now

    I would take this to mean that there isn't going to be a "Spring Practice" per se, rather just one summer long practice leading to September games.

    PJ Fleck is recruiting like he plans on being here a long time

    You're almost saying that the 10,000 real fans who have stuck with this program through very little thick and a ton of thin may not be good enough fans for Fleck? Give me those 10,000 over any other group of fans in this country.

    ESPN 2020 FPI - Minnesota Gophers Ranked #31

    The offense may or may not be as good next year given that we lose two key offensive players and we do not know that the injury gods will not eat us alive. The defense is too new to believe it will be as solid as was the veteran starting eleven of last season. I hope we will win all 16 games...

    Official 2021 Gophers Football Recruiting Updates Thread: Links, Tweets, Videos etc

    He looks to be more of a football player at the P5 level than a BB player at that level.

    Lincoln Journal Star: lawsuit alleges cover-up of Nebraska football team sexual assaults

    Canadian athletic departments do not offer full rides as is done here. Toronto would have to drop all sport affiliations with other Canadian schools. Not going to happen.

    Lincoln Journal Star: lawsuit alleges cover-up of Nebraska football team sexual assaults

    The interesting thing to me is that a newspaper in Nebraska would run this story at all. There was a day when a sports reporter would lose his job over such a thing.

    Power 5 ADs: What Happens to College Football If Conferences Can’t Field All of Their Teams?

    How is a Big Ten program going to pass on their 54 million dollar share of the Big Ten TV contract? It is simple, they will not.

    Reusse Mailbag: Why do you hate Coach Fleck so much?

    Reusse can not stand any strong, successful person in sport unless that person debases himself, day in and day out. Reusse can like the weak and downtrodden because they do not challenge his ego, his Olympian self image. Of course he hates Fleck, when has Fleck ever played "the victim" card...

    Souhan on Vikings not drafting Winfield Jr or Johnson

    There really is no such thing as "The Minnesotat Vikings". There is only The Vikings, a group of mercenaries who are incorporated and do their best to maxmize the profits of the owner who lives in New Jersey. They are currently playing their "home" games in Minnesota. They have the same...

    No, nor any other day nor night (other than the night of the last Presidential election, that was a knee slapping hoot!) Pray tell, what did those idiots have to say last night?

    GopherSports: Who is on your Mount Rushmore of Gopher Running Backs?

    Why was the University of Illinois so angry about Maroney switching his "commitment" from Illinois to the U? I don't approve of those sorts of "deals".

    Marion Barber III. Thompson was a speed back in spite of his size. Maroney's recruiting soured me on him.

    GopherSports: Who is on your Mount Rushmore of Gopher Running Backs?

    I was there for that one. Basic football, if you can not stop this play we are going to run it right down your throat. If we threw a pass in that game I don't remember it.
